Allaire won't be back

Though really, I'm just suggesting possible alternatives to TML being totally dysfunctional.

No, I get that. All I'm saying is that it's hard wrapping my head around any of these suggestions because, in a way, they all sort of suggest the same thing to me. It sounds like there was a conflict among the coaches essentially all season and that probably shouldn't have been allowed to fester until whenever it was Burke decided to fire Wilson.

This is what happens when you make a coach a "god" as Allaire was.....never make anyone a God especially a Frenchman..

You went right past sarcasm and landed right on moderately offensive

"Allaire pointed to a Feb. 14-21 road trip the Leafs took through Western Canada as the moment his relationship with Gordon and Cronin turned sour, calling it ?disastrous? how the two ?who have no expertise with goalies? tried to undo what he had been preaching."


I don't know.....  If I were the goaltending coach and two other coaches were messsing around with the goalie's technique  ....  I'd be pretty upset

Yeah, but he cherry picked the precise moment the Leafs went into a tailspin. The goalies were never that good in their time here (AHL numbers are not NHL numbers, Frankie). I call shenanigans

Classy of him.

Clearly this has been festering for a while. But leave and get on a soapbox? I don't know if anyone would want to touch this guy anymore.

We can ask Ted Nolan how badmouthing your ex-boss hinders future employment opportunities.
