Three requirements are needed to be a successful coach. Run a good practice, run your bench well, and manage your personnel. Timmy is failing at the last two. He needs to recognize who should be playing with whom and who has the momemtum and desire to be on the ice at certain times. He does have some players who are offensively gifted and need to be on the ice together, when offense is expected. Present powerplay is unacceptable and quite frankly sucks. You have three coaches on the bench. I'm sure you can get your heads together and figure out who belongs on the ice together. After all, you are the three who assembled this group. Last years group was easy to coach. Just put the first line out. This year, you coaches have to really work and earn your paychecks. This is not last years team. Flynn, Abbott, Hegarty are graduated. Mangene jumped ship. Allow this team to form it's identity. Coaches coach, Players play and Teams win. This team doesn't want to keep hearing about the past successes compared to their shortcomings. Let's move forward. Stay in the present and let the past rest. Look towards the future. Go Black Bears.
