The guys discuss\u00a0Gerard Gallant’s departure from the Florida Panthers, and what caused the separation between the two sides. Is this firing results driven, or process driven? Can you really judge either just 22 games into the season?<\/p>\n
With Gallant out of job, now more than ever we need to ask the question of how to use statistics in hockey. Are teams ready to go all the way and truly try to optimize their teams, or are the Panthers a black sheep in the league, set for ultimate disappointment.<\/p>\n
Finally a hard look at what makes the difference between a Stanley Cup contender, and a champion. Can it really be solved with a better fourth line? Is all you need an extra two percent? Or is there something bigger? Are the off-ice contributions of players really the difference maker in the grand scheme of things?<\/p>\n
