    That doesn’t sound good. I wonder if we thought we were going to get Brunette and Nashville pulled a fast one on us

    Roy’s season ends on either friday or sunday fwiw

    The more time goes on the more I honestly think they’re waiting for Roy. The shifting of the timeline plus going from “the goalie coach hire will be independent” to “the new coach will have input on the hire” really makes me think they want Roy.

    I just don’t see why these changes would have happened if they were just going for Vincent or Travis Green or whatever. I know Freidman said Roy was “a conversation, not an interview” but there’s too many little things going on for it not to feel like it may go in that direction.

    The longer there is no announcement has to lead one to believe that Roy is still a viable candidate. If he wasn’t seriously under consideration you’d have to think they would’ve named someone by now.

    Don’t want to be the last one at the dance without a date. What a massive decision for Jarmo.

    Edit: a word

    This screams “it’s Roy” to me. This will either be a boom or bust. Either way the on ice product ought to be more entertaining than what was out there last season

    They are just waiting for Jalonen to get done partying and get off the plane. Heard it hear first lol

  7. ForTheBrownsOnly

    Holy fuck getting Roy would be incredible!!!!

  8. thethomahawk56

    It’s so painfully obvious that it’s Roy at this point lol.

  9. That’s such good leadership by Acosta. We are gonna need Brandon’s confidence up if we want to keep the success we have had lately
