Glad he signed.
Now, as fans, what can we reasonable expect from this talented young hockey player for the next two years? i.e., expectations that correlate with the money he is/was compensated for his services? Need the answer so when people post their good/bad observations of his play/production, they'll know the parameters. 🙂
Dear TSN and all other media outlets of interest,
There is a lot of us who could give a flying **** who captains the Maple Leafs.
Signed,
Everyone outside of Ontario
Good or bad I think it may be other teams management who may be considering giving him another chance at HC. Whether some people like it or not, he knows football inside out. However does that translate well onto the field, how well he can work with others who have different opinions on certain football schemes and is he able to flex his system when needed are all up for debate. If I was considering him to be a HC for my team, these are the things I would focus on with him.
Bombers or nothing for me but I sure did enjoy when they showed Khari on the sidelines getting jazzed up like a prize fighter right before a big match as the Als were making their comeback. That was pretty cool.
It will also be interesting to watch what happens when our players face in-game adversity again. Will they tighten up again or will they shake it, power through and deliver the kill shot (s). This is where good coaches thrive.
Yup Lapo and Babcock are similar that way. Both are really good coaches but it feels they can get real stubborn at times in not adjusting their system when needed, sometimes to the peril of their respective teams. Lapo comes across as thinking he is the smartest guy in the room when it comes to his craft which sometimes isn't true.
Maybe, but im not sold on noodle arm Adams yet. With the way our db coverage was last game there were many times Adams had a receiver but had a hard time hitting them in stride. His only saving grace on some plays was there was no db in good position allowing the receiver huge latitude to adjust to the ball.
Yup. Watching BigHill this game, he mostly played like a spectator. No way you let him freelance if his body can't catch up with his eyes. WJ freelances at times but usually makes the play.
I can almost guarantee you when the coordinators are breaking down film, the majority of discussion will be what the players didn't execute and/or their missed assignments. Right or wrong that's what usually happens. This loss falls on everyone, coaches and players. However, you are right, most of the heat will be definitely be on the coordinators as second guessing the play calling will happen while reviewing tape. I wonder how much this loss will strain the coaching staff's relationship.
