Thread: Goodbye Paul Maurice
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>I was thinking...if told Jets fans that the team will lose 4 D and start the season with young D, would your handling of the off-season be different? This is a question for you specifically and <a href="/users/tsyls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@tsyls</a> as you both are respected Jets fans.

My point is that Maurice has done a terrific job when you consider the players Jets lost in the off-season and replaced them with players with very little NHL experience.
I'd go as far as to say he'd be my coach of the year candidate...assuming of course that he gets through this season.</div></div>
I see your point but it’s not all roses, we could still be doing a lot better. He’s hindering our offence and that has always been this teams strength. Look at Vegas in 17-18 everyone was laughing at there defence but gallant was able to introduce a system that was high flying and fast. Paul Maurice with maybe our strongest roster ever last season went below 500 from January 1st on. He’s been here for almost 7 years or whatever it is now and has only managed 2 good seasons. Simply not good enough. It’s time for a fresh face

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Isn't it time to question if Chevy is the right guy either though? I mean really count up all the picks, prospects and players traded or that walked as UFA's for pretty much nothing and can we really say he's doing a good job? Since the trade at the 2016 draft he's probably dealt a whole drafts worth of picks for basically nothing in return and this team still has some pretty gaping holes.. Lol..

I'm really starting to doubt his ability as a GM, he's too inactive, can't just rely on the draft and waiver claims to build a team..😂

I'm glad he didn't do any stupid panic trades to address the defense but a minor trade to acquire a #3/4 dman would of been a good move and I can't imagine it would've taken all that much to do that.</div></div>

I see what you mean, however the Byfuglien situation this year really screwed everything up. At this point I hope he never returns because he pretty much has ruined our whole season

I respectfully disagree. Chevy has done pretty well all things considered in my opinion. The only thing that I didn’t like that he did is the Kevin Hayes trade a year ago. This offseason was not really his fault either:
Jacob Trouba : was as good as gone anyways
Tyler Myers: 6 years 6 million is way to much for him
Ben Chiarot: would have love to have signed him but got outbidded by an extra 500k per year
Buff: completely screwed us over and we can’t make any moves until he officially retires or comes back.
Tanev: way to long of a deal
Paul however should be moved on from in my opinion. We have had one maybe two good season with him as coach, simply not good enough. He can’t get the most out of his players, especially the bottom six, it’s been brutal. He constantly plays pylon scrubs who belong in the AHL other than young and promising players ( Bitetto instead of niku, Bourque instead of vesalainen most recently) are a few reasons why he should be gone in my opinion
