With Barry Melrose fired in Tampa Bay. Who is the best candidate to be the next coach of the Lightning. (Rick Tocchet was named interim). |

The answer is "other" and they had the right guy in place but fired him. The best coach out there right now without a team is John Tortorella.
Crawford would be a good pick as well, but I have never really been a fan of his. He seems to have a history of taking a team and making them average.
Other than that, I think it is time for some fresh blood in the world of NHL coaching. I like Tocchet getting a shot and I hope he does well and gets a longer term chance. The guy has been an assistant coach with Colorado and Phoenix before working with Barry Moron in TB.
Tocchet was one of my favorite players growing up and I am rooting for him to do something in TB. |

Marc Crawford would turn this team around. They have lots of talent and just need to get back on track. |

He is out of the contentions now, he is an ambassador for Chicago. I dont know how they can fire some1 after 4 games. Thats truly disrespectful.

I like Bob Hartley, proven successful coach, and he is a defensive systems coach which is what Tampa desperately needs to learn. Play better defense and the offense will ignite. He also knows how to get the best out of his players. |
