Ok, so I was off in my own little world when the Penguins resigned Therrien as their head coach. When it happened I wanted to get on here and complain, but I waited.
.....So I'm going to complain and ask a question now.
I do have to say one thing about Therrien and I've been saying this since day one.....I don't think Therrien will get them shite. Yeah he got them the Prince of Whales trophy, but that isn't the Stanley Cup. He was completely out-coached in the SCFs (I am a Penguin fan also for those who don't know me).
Therrien also can figure out the d**n power play and penalty kill. Can Crosby kill a d**n little penalty? I'm sure as h**l he can. Put him out there! The other "big name guys" are getting more ice time because they play the PK.
Also about his power play......Didn't Gino Malkin state earlier that he didn't like playing the point? Does Therrien not stand Evgeni's broken English Russian? Get him off the point and throw in dang Sergei Gonchar or Ryan Whitney......Gonchar is a very talented man....I wanna see him out there on the point, NOT Evgeni.
I guess I can't complain and grumble as much as I am saying that he's better than some other coaches, but still.......I don't think he's all that cracked up, and he most deffinately isn't as mature as a grown man should be.
So my question is this.......Do you think it was right of the Penguins to extend his contract to another 3 years? Do you think he'll be able to eventually lead them to a cup? I feel a cup for the Penguins has to be near, but.....not with him (unless a miracle of him changing a few of his ways happens over the summer).
So what do you think?
