Fitz?

The lack of veterans on D and bad coaching led to the demise of this team.  It's sends a real bad message when you move Dougie off PP1 to start the year despite the early success.  Not much of that was Luke either.  That success early on was due to Jack's hot start.  The defense was just plain garbage which puts pressure on the forwards and the goaltending.  Despite what all the numbers say psychology plays a huge roll in hockey.  Chemistry is what make teams play well.  You can see the results of chemistry in data but it doesn't work the other way around.  You can't build chemistry off data.

Lindy Ruff was absolutely abhorrent in his tenure here.  Fitz talked about a guy losing his job because of players play on the ice.  I would argue the players in spite of Lindy earned him some extra cash in his pocket.  He owes them not the other way around.

I have absolutely no faith in Fitz to turn this team around due to his inability to manage his coaches and make adjustments to the team on the fly by filling holes with the right fills.  Lazar was a great pick up but even he was mishandled last year.

I would like to see Fitz fired sooner rather than later.  The owners can't make the same mistake themselves that they let him make.

I was going to reply but realized I've already said everything I was about to say at least twice. We're all talking in circles saying the same things over and over lol.
