What do you think of the leafs new coach?

Question

What do you think of Ron Wilson, new coach of the leafs? Do you think he will help to tunr them around. Don't answer this in what you want to happen but what you actually think will happen, because the leafs will not win the cup next year, but they could begin to turn around, like the penguins for years to come.

Answer 1

he might do well. they really need to rebuild that team. too many old guys. dont get me wrong sundin is a great player but they need guys like antropov to keep stepping up. it may take a couple of years before they make the playoffs.

Answer 2

I'm a Sharks fan and all i can say to you is good luck and that i couldn't be happier that Doug Wilson fired him.

You guys were better off with Tortorella like 288 says.

And as for what i think of the Leafs new coach?  Take a look at NIPS avatar....

Answer 3

He's just like the last one. Hired to be fired when the fans have had enough of the management.

Answer 4

He'll give the Leafs another ten years of futility. They should've gone with Torterella.

Answer 5

Ron Wilson is a great coach, but he's getting stuck with a horrible position.  Coaching in Toronto is a death sentence.  It's like going to play for the Oakland Raiders.  Players only go there to kill their careers.

Answer 6

here's the thing. the leafs are on one of those roads where there is an obvious spot to U-turn, but theres a sign that says "DONT U-TURN"

you know those? yeah.. i hate them too. you freakin miss a turn on the highway and your driving another 15 miles (at least) before you can turn around!

anyways, that's exactly the situation.

the leafs are on one of those roads, they missed a turn somewhere, and they cant U-turn cause the sign tells them they cant, so now they are stuck driving in the same direction until they actually have the chance to turn around.

but don't worry, they have a long drive ahead.

Answer 7

Seen him.

He has liver spots and he acts like a pretty boy.

Although, he's a pretty good coach.

Answer 8

Its kind of like when you are a smoker and the DOC tells you that you have cancer.... so instead of quitting you switch brands! Its not going to help you much, is it?

Answer 9

I think he is a tremendous coach, for the regular season. He seems to have a habit of losing in Game 6 of the Semifinals though.

Maple Leaf fans should be applauding the acquisition.

Answer 10

hes ok, but the team he was just hired by is a joke. youre a complete joke when youre an original six team and want to model yourselves after an expansion team.
