RDOilerfan wrote on Fri, 11 January 2019 12:20 | I will say one thing about Hitch. He's supposed to be demanding and a hard ass but man that guys has his team back. Since he got here, all he has done is pump Lucic's tires no matter what he's done. I think Puljujarvi has looked a lot better recently but he pumped that kids tires a crap load right off the bat even when he was lousy. He's piled on the refs not that long ago something McLellan never did. Last night, the Oilers were kind of lousy, didn't bring much but managed to win yet there is Hitch, saying it was a gutsy win, how tired they were, etc, etc. Giving the fellas an out for a lack luster game.

Shielding his players in public and showing you have their backs, and demanding they give all they have in private. I think that should be the the goal of any good coach. Babcock is a master of that too. When he does criticize, it's on very general terms, almost never pointing at individuals. McLellan did a lot of pointing out individuals, which was never nice to see, even if it fed the need to hate on a single guy in the moment. You look back and maybe it was satisfying at the time, but you know it was bad now. Like when he was railing on Schultz constantly leading up to him being traded.
