I just think he has run his course.

I say this to my friends a lot lately. Most coaches have a shelf life. ESP in hockey, coaches hardly make it 5 years. Only the pens and bolts coaches have longer tenure. I think the leafs coach is around the same time as rod. The average life span of an NHL coach is 2.2 years, I had to Google it. With consistent playoff flame outs and this year, it’s getting time to really consider if Rod should be our coach. Florida won the Presidents trophy one year and fired their coach midway through the next year then proceed to lose in the cup finals and win it the next year. Rod has been a godsend for us. Took us out of being basement dwellers but think this is far as he can go. Unfortunately this cheap ass organization isn’t helping either. Maybe Waddell saw something and that’s why he left for a worse team.  

I think Rod has lost the team. His style is taxing and clearly guys aren’t playing it on the ice.  They are playing a super soft version of it which is worse than playing any other way. I said last year that the canes should consider switching from man defense to zone. We don’t have the players to play man, esp this year. They are small and the big guys like KK, Svech, Burns, are playing soft and small. I don’t know, it’s just not fun to watch like it was the past 4 years.  Our game threads would light up each game with excitement. Hell I used to be Mr Positive all the time. That’s even gone. Something in that organization needs to change.

      Wild Card QB Performance Rankings

      I've already posted this but I think it's worth repeating here: "To me, that's an insult to Horn but that's besides the point. Against the Dolphins, the Panthers faced a 4-5 with 3:31 left in the game. Bryce hit Horn for a 17 yrd completion picking up the 4th down and leading to a score for the win." So what was wrong with using Horn on that down given they had done it before - with success? It just seems to me people are trying to belittle Horn just to make Young look bad. I can understand you not liking Young, and don't have a problem with it, but I'm not sure I can understand insulting another player just to make something fit your narrative.
