I think we're going to see them play more full 60 minute games, stemming from being in better physical and mental condition.

I think it's a proxy for "The profile and character of the roster is way more important than who's coaching them".

Probably 😂

Did you know that Ruff has a higher career win % than Paul Maurice and John Tortorella, or doesn’t that support your point?

We will have to agree to disagree on this one. Even without knowing their winning percentages, if you tell me the coach or player who has the most wins all time in their sport, I think that is an excellent indicator of above average success. I think it’s a function of longevity, which in sports tends to be a function of success.

Now that’s a hot take. I don’t think you meant to say “never”.

Holy F… part of me is thrilled, part of me remembers it not working last time.

Casey scores

We could do worse

Great pace and banging in the Bruins- Loafs game so far.

1-0 B’s

And we’re listening to Muel opine about leadership because…? Does anyone consider him to be any kind of authority on the subject? Work on your durability, young man.

Playoff hockey? I’m not familiar. Could you elaborate?

Put me on the 4C train. I don’t love him. I don’t hate him. And he’s actually one of the few guys that will stick his nose into things and play with some edge. Maybe he’s one of those guys the right coach can get more out of.

Wow! Let’s go!

This team makes me sad. Over and over and over again.

Who’s god awful TO was that?

Hope it doesn’t go to a shootout! Sheesh…

How is this game tied? We look awful.

Working on that Playoff Beard

Fun ending!

Yep. Players and coaches come and go. I root for the laundry.

He is the POLAR OPPOSITE of a banger. He's, what, 6'6" and intimidates no one. I'm not saying he needs to go out and ram everything in sight, but good God, play to your size.

I agree with what you said. The bolded are problems, IMO.
