I think Julien does a good job riding the line between task master and players coach. I'd assume Babcock is the same way, you won't last as long as they have with the same team by going too far in either direction.

Yeah, the top coaches know how to balance...but, generally speaking, I don't believe most are the screaming tyrants a la Keenan.
Hearing Glenn Healy on NHL radio and he said during Iron Mike's days in NY, the players HATED him. Don't think that style will go far at all...let alone a Cup in today's NHL.

Keenan ruined every organization he ever coached at. He completely obliterated the Blues in the 90's. If you wanted to bring him in have him kick some ass for half a season and light a fire to get you to the cup, he's probably your guy, see his work in the KHL this year. If you want your players to consider suicide and hate their job, he's your guy long term
I wouldn't say he's ruined every organization he's been to. But he's act wears thin fast. Torts is the modern day Keenan.

But I'm sure Moog will be by any minute now to tell me how wrong I am.

But, he was definitely successful (look at his wins)...just not going to find work in the League anymore. Probably a reason why he's coaching in the KHL now.

Hope not though, I'd like to see him make another run at a cup in Hockeytown.
I could totally see Shanny making a pitch to Babs ego because we all know Toronto is the biggest coaching challenge. You basically have six million opinions on how to run that team, plus one dude who failed at pro hockey who does really does know how to run the team.

According to the blog writer over at Hockeybuzz.com, this is where the Kings stand in LA...crazy. Pretty darn good team to watch and a pretty good sport...people are missing out!
Sadly, L.A. Kings are second banana to the Lakers, Clippers, Dodgers, Puig batflips, the NBA, The NFL, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James cramps, Alyssa Milano at hockey games, any movie star doing anything anywhere, etc. etc....etc. etc.

Just as I was steeling myself for five months of Moogelino's photobomb cup spambot, you jerks went and scared him away. Where's sarlacc? Where's cabbie? Where's noobelino? You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.
