Confirmed with Link: Panthers coach Brunette named Atlantic division head coach for ASG

[GermanPanther]

NHL seems to like him LOL

Its more like, the Team with most Points and lesser Games played get the Job. You are on the Top you are the Coach.
Same procedure as every Year. No matter what congrats for him and the Team.
Who they send this Year Huberdeau? as Player most Games and most Points?

Has an "Interim" Head Coach ever won the Jack Adams?
Our guy is deserving.

And our GM.......it's gotta be a lock. No?

Someone will move the posts to be dependant on a certain level of playoff success even though they doubted he could even get us there.

He has been a steady force for us.

If they win the SC … okay, Bruno can stay

Carrot on the stick for Bruno, AKA Motivation.

You guys think Zito has his eyes set on his own person?

Maybe, but it would be hard to do depending on what Bruno does in the playoffs.

Nah I think it’s about contract terms and staff to be honest.

I honestly think there's a chance we're going to re-hire Quenneville next season. A "full year suspension" is punishment enough for his role in what went down and the whole situation (sadly) will prob be old news by next season.

"Hey Andrew, thanks for leading the team to (possibly) a presidents trophy after the last coach had to resign in shame. But we're gonna go ahead and bring him back. Good luck in Detroit"

Yeah, I doubt that happens. He’s done.

As a known non supporter to start, unless he gets swept, I don't see a scenario where Bruno isn't the coach next season

Would have to agree.

The problem I see is that we are all pretty sure we have the best roster in the East. I expect our downfall to be special teams. It’s up to the coach to turn the best roster into the best special teams. So if that does end up being the cause of the loss what can you do to improve next year? The roster is only going to get worse. Why should we expect the special teams to magically improve if we make no change.

This is all hypothetical and the PP has looked good lately (against bad teams). But the PK is still a major concern. We’ll see how it shakes out in the playoffs

I think our PK coach is Dmac.

Didn't Toronto pp semi struggled until they hired our old coach McFarland. We can hire special teams coaches to improve the edges
