Re: [Hockey] Official~ NHL thread...........scores and highlites

Dorion and Boucher are on Ottawa radio

Dorion says he talked contract parameters with all the finalists (including BB). But Boucher's agent was the 1st he called. (since he talked contract parameters with all finalists that is where the confusion is coming from that the Sens offered BB a contract)

Dorion said he told BB that they had their #1 candidate and he could go ahead if he had something.

How is this related to Melnyk not willing to "pony up" Rumour had it they offered BB 2.75 per season for 3 years. Minny reportedly gave him 3mill for 4 years. Not much of a difference (relatively speaking)

As for people thinking that Boucher is a weird pick.

His record in the NHL 97W - 78L - 20 OTL which is a solid record (not as good as BB admittedly). His playoff record is 11-7 (better than BB's percentage)

He also had success in the CMHL and coached well in the AHL.

Plus he has coached Hoffman in the QMJHL so he knows him and how he plays

and MAYBE.. just MAYBE he is friends with Stamkos and can convince him to come to Ottawa

I am willing to give him a chance

SOme analysis of the BB hire and who Greg W thought might be the next coach for the Sens.. it came down to Yeo and Bourcher

Not much of a difference? Quarter mil a year for four years is a million. Perhaps you have enough money that's not a big deal, but it will be for many.

For many but not for guys that already are making millions of $$ per year and have made millions of $$ per year.. that is why I said "relatively speaking"

A 2.75 per year offer was still 1.25 million per year more than BB made last year

Re: [Hockey] Official~ NHL thread...........scores and highlites

Make it three!

...because it isn't the coaching in Ottawa, parity is a biatch and Ottawa is a middling contender with an activist Owner who prefired the last guy with 3 weeks to play! That was nasty.

Ottawa...WTF?

Brutal pick for what Dorion claimed was the critical choice of the franchise.

I could see Murray back in the reigns by early December, if his heart still beats.

Brutal pick, or only fool desperate enough to agree to coach under these conditions?

I'd say more the latter than the former, I mean Boudreau chose *MINNESOTA* over Ottawa :P

We got a lightning shot on Wed night that conked our power grid off and I missed the 3rd period and OT of the Wash/Pitts game.

More than you might think in some cases! There were complaints last night from some Rogers cable customers when they missed the OT winner thanks to their receivers installing updates at 2am.

Re: [Hockey] Official~ NHL thread...........scores and highlites

Yep, though word is that Fletcher is on his way to Anaheim to talk to Boudreau about Minnesota, and that the Flames have already talked to him over the phone. There's a lineup for his time right now.

The Flames fired Bob Hartley. Looks like they realized the run from 2 seasons ago was non-repeatable luck instead of solid coaching.

Goal scored by Captain David Backes on his birthday!!!! Blues gotta stop blowing 2 goal leads....

Is Ruff that good at making adjustments for the Stars or is Hitchcock unable to get the Blues to play pressure hockey with a lead?
