I agree with Debrusk. Why let the Bruins get a breather? You play the PP for the entire 2 minutes. Why huddle the same unit now when the other team is gassed after an icing? Foot on the pedal Dave!

I wonder how many games we have to lose before the team would consider making a change...
|
I'm not seeing much value add via the Tip these days. Any dummy can try to let McDrai win every game for them and get nothing out of the rest of the lineup. Maybe special teams are great, but it's not like he had a history of amazing special teams in his coaching career. Keep the assistants for a while if that's what we think is so great about how this team is coached.
yes, I'm trying to fire another Oilers coach.
|
I don't think he has any ideas. Fall behind by a couple goals? Reunite 97 and 29 and play them 25 minutes. Rinse, repeat. 5v5 this team has been terrible for his entire tenure here, and the bottom six, despite the on-paper upgrades, are on pace to be the worst ever. So yeah, I think it's time for a change.
(For the record, I don't think the Oilers will make a change, and even if they do they'll do something stupid and bring back some other 60+ coach who's been the coach for 4 or 5 other teams again.)
|
Depends on where Holland thinks he's at in the window to win, and whether he thinks he's given Tippet enough assets to win. I think they're in the win now mode, and I think that gives Tip a shorter rope certainly than he had a couple years ago. Depends on this skid as well.

Specific to tonight's game, I saw the Oilers ease up big time with about 5 minutes left. They just completely stopped hockeying and began floating, coasting, daydreaming, etc. Was there a lineup change or a shift realignment or something? Did Tippett manage to change the chemistry of the first ten minutes of the period where the team really took control? Was there a conceptual switch from WIN BY SCORING to WIN BY DEFENDING? I can't figure out why they stalled completely - was it a "strategic" coaching move or a fail on the part of the players? I am baffled by this.
