Don Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Caps to make "significant" player related announcement on Monday. The obvious guess is Nicklas Backstroms contract extension. Im hoping for 10+ years of Nicky in DC.

Sport Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 So it seems that the Blue Jackets head coaching candidates have basically been narrowed down toGuy Boucher - head coach Hamilton BulldogsKevin Dineen - former Blue Jacket great and head coach of the Portland PiratesClaude Noel - longtime Blue Jackets assistant and interim coach the last two months of last season. Previously a successful head coach with the Milwaukee AdmiralsScott Arniel - Manitoba Moose head coach, former NHL assistantPaul Maclean - longtime Red Wings assistantI'm thinking that Claude Noel will not be the next head coach because they basically said as much. I like Guy Boucher's record, but he's been a head coach for like 2 years, plus he's still in the playoffs so interviewing him and hiring him with less than a month before the draft may not be desirable. I don't know anything about Scott Arniel and all I know about Paul Maclean is that he's a Red Wings assistant. Personally, I'm in favor of hiring Kevin Dineen. Not because he was a former Blue Jacket, but because I think he has the character that this team needs. The Jackets gave up in a lot of games and started a lot of games without focus last season and found themselves in quick holes. I don't think Kevin Dineen will let that happen.

NEW.ERA Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Scott Arniel would also be a good fit after all the good work he's done with the Moose. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
