Coaching and management changes around the league

That?s a reasonable get for Vegas. Mark Stone in a Cassidy system might be extremely annoying to get through
 
I would have been very curious to see what Trotz could do with a team that could score goals, but yeah Cassidy is probably just as good for them.

Genuinely thought there?d be one of these from atop the can by now
 
Just like Keenan before him, Tortorella will always be an option for teams without any actual ideas to improve their team but who hope that the players will play better if they're yelled at more.

I am looking forward to Tortorella vs Gritty

Not only that. He gets snapped up right away each time. I just don't get it.

If the NHL coaching carousel was a cow, Pete DeBoer (just double checking, it's not you, right?) is about to pass out of the rectum after this.

How does he keep getting hired

He's had pretty good results hasn't he?  Couple of finals appearances with different teams and a couple trips to the conference finals as well.

Teams he coaches seem to stagnate or move backwards. He always seems to get the best results in his first season. Looks more like he inherited good rosters that he wasn't able to push forward.

This goes back to the age old question, what's the most important thing, the coach or having great players?

Except that's a false dichotomy. You need great players and a coach who can get the most out of them (unless your roster is heads and shoulders above everyone else, which is not a thing that happens so much in the real world).
