Quote:I am saying he either needs to be fired or extended. A GM going into his last year is going to get stuck with Mike Mularkey types of HC candidates. Any in demand HC candidate isn't going to go to a place where the GM may be replaced and a new GM may bring in his own HC after one season if the duo doesn't have instant success.

Any real HC candidate shouldn't be worried about, or even thinking about any GM contract. They should only be focused on winning. Plain and simple.

 

A real and confident coach should believe they can turn any team around, at any time, no matter what.

 

If any HC candidate is focusing on the GM being gone in a year because the team is losing. I don't want that candidate anywhere near my team, honestly.

 

It's all about one game at a time right? Isn't that what the great coaches speak? If some coach is worrying about what's going to happen to a GM, a year or two from now. Forget him because that's a clear sign of him thinking about just himself #1.
