Very true. I rememeber as far back as Mike Palmateer. His unorthodox style made Hasek look like a statue. But like Ed and Cujo he stole game after game behind a horrid defense other than Salming and the occasional big hit by Rocky Saganiuk.
I have always liked Giguere but he is not the future for this team. For whatever reason Washington seems to not be happy with their young goalies so perhaps he will end up there with a chance to ride the wave to another cup as a backup or split time starter.

Sims is not "overrated" as a coach. I do think he and the organization did not do a good job of recruiting and building this roster. They got comfortable (and continue to be comfortable) with the same players that got them there in the past. They misjudged the style this league plays and did not prepare well for it this off season.
I do think he and David Franke will get it figured out. They always have. One poor/mediocre season does not mean they have suddenly forgotten what they are doing. It just means they made a mistake. I think they have earned the right to fix their mistake. I am torn. Part of me wants them to make a run into the playoffs for the fan/business but part of me wants them to not go that far this year because I believe the future of this franchise requires a roster overhaul. If they make a deep run this season I believe they will continue to recycle mostly the same roster again next year.

Mr snuffulupugus- why is is you want them gone so bad? I suppose you were sitting on your hands last night during the pregame ceremony for Guy encouraging fans around you that he sucks and hasn't done anything during his career.. I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion but in my case yours has no validity!!
