Time for Hynes and his permanent dumb-yet-angry-but-befuddled expression to go. Maybe it’s simply a case of a guy who got so used to losing (and was never really taken to task for it, due to various circumstances) that he doesn’t really know how to stop, no matter the amount of talent he has to work with. Who knows? I’m just done with status quo. Could be Hynes just does better when he has absolutely little to no expectations and/or pressure. That's why he is Coach Loser to me.

This is a known thing - the analytics department of the Devils certainly knows it. The roster construction, I understand somewhat just because they carved out a spot for Smith and he couldn't take it. Scoring literally no powerplay goals, having a PK below 50% and repeatedly blowing leads is not an issue of having R-R defensive pairs. It's the coaches, and if the analytics people have trouble figuring that out, they should go back to getting wedgies at gym class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just FYI - Pat passed away a few years ago. (Double edit: 2010, Jesus time flies). Still my favorite Devils coach ever. It was nice to see his widow at Patty’s jersey retirement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Boys this is the look of a coach who knows he's a dead man walking. Just went through this with RU. When a coach looks this discouraged/miserable in a presser.. it's all but over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who'd of thought...... I was easy to find, me and my daughter were wearing purple HFC jerseys in section 120. Tickets were too cheap on StubHub and I couldn’t resist. So the first game I attend in the Year of the Pavel, he scores 3 points. Coincidence? Of course, you get 3 points from Zacha and still lose the game? That’s crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the coaches, and if the analytics people have trouble figuring that out, they should go back to getting wedgies at gym class. Is the only point that people are allowed to make on the board right now that, "Hynes should be fired?" Because I didn't see anyone state, "Gosh, if only the D were paired in accordance with their handedness everything would be fine." I've mentioned before, there's a "Fire Hynes" thread - you started it, this is the GDT, it's where people analyze what went wrong and right in the game. The point here is that the team is less bad when the D are paired correctly - well not just according to handedness - Carrick and Tennyson should both probably sit but until that can happen, at the very least, lefty Mueller, who yes, is also sh!tty, should play.

mfitz804 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Those in the “why isn’t Boqvist playing” camp should be happy, he filled Rooney’s role of doing nothing and added. 4 minute penalty with 7.5 left to play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s only in his 60s I think I mean, if we could get a multiple Stanley Cup winner who won one of them by replacing an underperforming coach in the middle of the season, I'd do it. Just sounds like he's really done with it for now, but hopefully Ray can get him to change his mind. The one thing Ray needs to do though is make sure the analytics department has no input into who gets hired. They're useless. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
