Interesting.
The last bunch of NHL Cup winners were first timers. Cassidy, Bednar, Cooper, Berube, Trotz, Sullivan, Quenneville, Sutter, Julien.
I believe the list of multiple SC winners for different teams is very short. Scotty Bowman is the obvious one.

It would be an interesting study if someone was to track all the teams in different sports that have won a championship for the very first time after decades of losing or coming close. Then see who coached those teams. I would bet dollars to donuts that the coaches of the winning teams had previously won championships with other teams before that.
No NFL coach has ever won a Super Bowl for 2 different teams.
It about 10 years old, but here’s a Tour de Force on repeated success of GMs in the NHL. Warning, it’s long, but the message is short: it’s rare to have repeated success and hiring a “proven winner” is very far from a guarantee of future success.

Carolina is shopping Tony D’Angelo per Friedman as well.
Geez, Carolina is acting like one of my yo-yoing exes. “I hate you, but can’t live without you.”

Ick.. the fallout still continues... no offense to Bowman and Joel Q.... but no... there is no place for them in the NHL... and the Black Hawks should pay a price... https://www.yahoo.com/sports/ex-blackhawks-player-sues-team-alleges-he-was-sexually-assaulted-by-brad-aldrich-203857392.html
There’s many things wrong with this culture:
”Aldrich sneaked into the bedroom of John Doe while he was having sex with a woman, and tried to join the encounter. He made his presence known by playing with John Doe’s feet in the dark.”
Let ignore the sexual assault for a moment but why exactly was John Doe having sex in the same area as Aldrich? Is having sex with women a regular activity at film reviews? My guess is that this behavior is probably more widespread than the sexual assaults

All the colors and bold. I feel like this OP is a snippet from a conspiracy webpage.
It still needs some ALL CAPS words or phrases mixed in. Beliefs become facts when they are in all caps.

Contract is looking horrible now. Much worse than Skinner’s at his Krueger nadir.

No wins. Giving up 10 goals in consecutive games. Who are they tanking for?

Honestly if we have to use the greatest team of all time as the example the argument is a pyrrhic victory
it’s not worth striving to emulate
Ok. What about Tampa Bay? Sure, they may have added (no team exists that is solely drafted players - not even the Sabres), but wasn’t their core mostly drafted?

Maybe we can trade for Carter Hart.
Pay attention to what is happening between goals going in.
Lol. Didn’t Briere want an equivalent of 3 1sts for him?

He hasn't earned better wingers. Which productive center do you take those good wingers from?
Lots of talk about Mitts in this thread. People seem to remember him at the age of 22 and him playing like trash. But, let’s recall not just a year ago, Mitts was still playing like hot trash. His wingers were Jost and VO.
He got real wingers near the end of the season and has been playing lights out since. Wingers matter. Not going to argue about not taking wingers away from CM or TT, but let’s not write off Krebs while his wingers are KO and Girgs.

I’ve been up with food poisoning coming out of both ends for ten hours. If I’m still alive by game time they better win.

Question…why is it the newcomer who has been here less than a month have to be the guy calling the team out? Isn’t that why guys like Okposo and Girgensons were brought back?
I guess the message is much more impactful when it comes from a player who’s actually won something.

I like the line changes. I think by using the previous year lines, players were too comfortable reverting back to how they played before. New lines means new roles and responsibilities.

Guy who can do it on his own without a supporting cast?
the list starts and ends with the greatest goalie to ever exist in the history of planet earth, at the one position that can, on it’s best day temporarily be an exception that proves the rule, and even he lost, in the end
I may be drinking, but this made me a little emotional. This really sums up Hasek perfectly and I miss watching him. One thing that I regret more than not having the current generation get to watch him is that he never won a Cup for us. A damn shame. But we can all feel blessed for watching him play though. Truly Otherworldly.
The only thing that nearly looked like Hasek recently was that ridiculous save Subban made last year. Think about that and realize it happened every game.

If it's a delayed penalty did the goal stand?
I believe it did. It’s a delayed penalty, so as long as the non-offending team retains possession, the puck remains in play. The problem is fluke plays like this. The play should have been whistled dead as soon as the offending team touched the puck, but it doesn’t work this way.
I read more about it. The play gets whistled dead once the offending team regains possession. In this case, Laval didn’t. Still weird, because taking a shot on goal should constitute possession, unless it doesn’t apply to goalies.

Let’s hope so, we don’t want him fired in a couple months.

I came here to say this. JFC enough.
And I actually feel bad for players like Mitts. He’s had his ups and downs, but may not have seat when the music stops. One large contract means someone else isn’t getting one. I still have reservations about Power’s contract when it was mostly given due to his pedigree and our defense remains suspect.

They organization is still too busy taking a victory lap over missing the playoffs by a point.
And giving out huge contracts. Those are pat me on the back events too, but truly don’t mean anything unless they result in wins. Those will be celebrated much more.

Maybe their roster isn’t as deep as their pregame tweet boasts.
The pregame tweet was a prescient excuse for them to lose.

How about no more extensions until they start winning.

And this is why it took so long to get this done. A lot of effort must’ve went into the production of this video to make sure it was perfect. My guess there were arguments on whether they should show him in the all white uniform vs more goat head shots.

Hate to piss all over this parade, but unless DG’s comments about Bryson were taken grossly out of context (or the compromising photos on his hard drive get deleted), he doesn’t sound like someone he plans on using as a #7D.

Correct. I’m really trying to find a list of HCs with multiple SC wins and I just keep coming up with Bowman. But here is a list of coaches with SC appearances coaching different teams, so if other such coaches exist, they’ll be on this list:
