Good, short and to the point Clutch. That's how we're gonna have to deal with things right now. Be patient, let the system implement itself and hope for the best.

Nice blog clutch! We can be fickle at times (weren't we discussing who we were going to take with our 1st overall pick this year?!), so it's good to be reminded how close we are to being an elite team that can turn some heads.

We tried it as the favourites, that never worked out too well. Now we're middle of the pack, let's see how that goes.

I especially agree with your Brent Sutter idea. Giving time to a new coach is important, and not something the fans in Ottawa like to do.

That struck me as the most relevant point about the coaching. Brent Sutter was the best coach not coaching in the NHL at the time and the Devils are all about structure and buying into a system. Look at how long it took Sutter to get them all on the same page. Hartsburg is cut from a similiar cloth IMO. This guy can handle pressure and has strong Defensive systems. If you can Coach the Canadian Juniors to gold then you can handle Ottawa me thinks.
