I think it's possible that Todd McLellan is a really bad coach. At bare minimum, he's one of the most over-rated coaches of all-time.
Basically, anything that the coach had direct responsibility for was a weakness during his tenure here. We were bad at special teams, the player deployment was curious at best, and often seemed more based on who the coach liked than who should get a shot. His communication was horrendous. There seemed to be no serious attempt to gameplan for opponents, even in the playoffs, and he was badly outcoached in 2017 by...checking notes...Randy Carlyle!?!
It's amazing what a difference capable coaching can make - especially when you have good players for them to coach.

In retrospect, maybe I bought into the hype that Todd was the first decent coach, but the writing on the wall certainly showed he played favourites in what he felt would win us games, not how (as Adam puts it) who he should have played.
Tip, to his credit seems to be fairly even in how he treats his team, a few suspect defensive combos in my opinion but nothing that alarms me.
He also let's his associate / assistant coaches, coach.
The guys also talk to each other, guiding the younger guys how to do this and that, on the ice too, their jaws are always flapping. How long since you could see that? on the regular
It was a gutsy win last night, and they played with confidence as Koskinen I think shined last night (I was actually surprised to see this).
Well done game, and the team has a whole different feel to their game. They skate with purpose and skate like a team that should win.
Amazing turnaround.
The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.
Generally Disappointed.
