I can't see Woody lighting many fires, not his style.. he's a mellow dude.. which unfotunately is like the majority of the team.

This might not be a group well suited to a fire breather. Some guys need an ass chewing, some guys need a direction they believe in.

True. But you generally need a coach that can do both.. as required.. I don't really see Woody as fire breather. :) I think what may save Woody is that he has Manson with him, who might be more able to be a hard ass. I feel the worst thing for the Oilers has been in the D-zone, hopefully Manson contributes there.
Your point that the team is not suited for a fire breather may be part of the problem, and a culmination of Holland's errors.

Yeah, there's definitely a lack of spark plugs on the team. As Struddy used to say, you need the right mix. And right now it feels like we have too many players that are focused on obediently trying to follow the Xs and Os, not enough players that are just hungry to go out and do something to put the other team on its heels. Without the second part, you become predictable and easy to play against.
Illegitimi non carborundum.
