He's an above average coach, sure, but he's not one of the greatest of all time. That'd be like calling Dick Vermiel one of the greatest football coaches of all time.

I'm of the opinion that winning the cup isn't the be all and end all of greatness. If Joe Thornton never wins a cup he'll obviously get poo poo on a lot just like Dan Marino and many others but he's one of the greatest to ever play.

Goatman Sacks posted:We've had Cracknell languishing in the AHL for years. Also bumping a 4th liner up to the top line is stupid as gently caress. You know what else is stupid? Ever even thinking about keeping our best playmaker (Schwartz) away from our best scorer (Tarasenko). It'd be like putting Oates and Hull on different lines, or Backstrom and Ovechkin. its actually not especially common to keep your best playmaker and best scorer on the same line, and schwartz aint oates or backstrom

Wins and what other metric would you suggest for evaluating coaches? Keep in mind: the season has not always been 82 games long, so if you go with just wins, you're leaving out a significant number of coaches who worked during a 40 game season.

INSPECTAH DECK posted:looking at their results vs. how the team stacks up on paper, how they were before the coach got there, trying to isolate more coach related aspects of the game, seeing if young players develop under him I'll do that research for the offseason thread, but having watched hockey for a long time I just don't see Hitch stacking up as one of the greats. He is a good coach, sure, but he is getting fired if he doesn't get past the Wild.

So maybe the Blues should shy away from the "let the opponent waltz through the middle of your zone" defense if they want to win.
