Description
There isn't one. You give Torts the boot. Personally, I like torts, BUT

Seems only reason Dubios wants out is Torts.

If you had to choose between an aging coach and one that tends to get under players skin (negatively) and a young up an coming potential 1C or solid 2c. Who would you pick? I know who I'd take. Bye Bye John.

    If you don’t think that’s been discussed already I don’t know what to tell you. If it was only Torts he would have been gone already

    Not saying you're wrong, but it's a dangerous road to let a mid tier star dictate your coach. Sets a bad precedent

    You don't let the players run the asylum. Torts has been up for coach of the year in multiple years with Columbus and kept them in the playoffs with a roster that really shouldn't be anywhere near. You don't replace that easily. Dubois isn't the type of player to build a franchise around, he's a very good secondary piece. & you definitely don't let him make you fire the coach.

    Also, it's just been rumours that he doesn't like Torts. Nothing confirmed.

    I don't disagree with any of this. My thinking behind it is that there's speculation Torts may retire after this year anyways, his contract is up. So What I would do isn't necessarily fire torts. But just tell PLD look, shut up, put up with it this year, and after that you'll have a new coach.

    If so then, I'd say have that conversation, but I thought I heard it was the contract negotiations that soured Dubois more than anything.

    Better idea:

    So what Yzerman did with Drouin and Sakic did with Duchene.. force the player to play until the right offer comes along.

    PLD is still under control for 3-4 more years. Don't let the player dictate when to be moved.

    That's what Columbus is currently doing

    This is probably what they should do but it will depend on how Dubois affects the team. Duchene destroyed the Avs until he was traded.
