Good for him. Fucking coach ain't gonna hold them accountable so it has to be the fans, announcers, media, etc. I can't picture Rierdon sitting any of the guys down who need to be sat. To shake this team up I'd call up 5 or 6 guys from Hershey and sit DSP, Eller, Burakovsky, Kuznetsov. Send a real fucking message. Play the game the right way -- stop looking like you've never seen a rink before.

Milbury just put it on Rierdon to have to "step up" and "rap people on the knuckles" and "sit people in the stands." He's spot on. Don't be a pussy, Todd, or you'll be one and done. Kick some ass and take some names. This team responds when you show some tough love. That's what Trotz did after the infamous West Coast trip last year. Does he have the balls? We shall see.

Everyday there is more and more evidence to support why Monumental let Trotz walk so Reidon can hire Reidon.
Monumental wants a coach that will make the stars happy,inflate stats, and be fan friendly. Playing the right way and accountability are second fiddle at most, if not discouraged.
So I’ll give Reidon a little benefit that he’s not doing a lot of what should be done, because Monumental doesn’t want their stars with mega-contracts to look bad.
