I loved watching his teams play and compete, and I thought the Washington Capitals, had they had him as their coach, without any of that other stuff, without any of the noise, I don't know if Ovechkin would have lasted because he's pretty hard on guys, but I think Obie likes the hard school stuff.
is that I think the Caps could have won not just one Stanley Cup.
They might be at two or three because the first time they had a stiff coach in Barry Trotz, they were great every year, and then they finally won the Cup in his last kick at it, his fourth year into it.
So there's a lot to be said for coaches who force you to do the things you don't want to do, but there's got to be communication there in today's game
because it's a whole different world.
Coaches are texting players on the plane, on the bus, in the dressing room.
There's got to be constant contact, and it's got to be primarily good contact.
It's got to be productive.
Yeah, and it's got to be conducive to winning.
So, you know, you can't just say you're all in it together.
You've got to prove it to the players on a daily basis.
You stick together and find ways to win.
Look at John Tortorella.
The John Tortorella everyone's talking about right now, that's the guy I know.
He hates the press.
It makes their job easier.
But I'll tell you what, his players always love him in the room.
And you know who doesn't like him?
Player 19, player 20, player 21, player 22.
You know, maybe the seventh defensive.
