With the current Stanley Cup qualifiers and the first round started to end, everyone also has an eye on the NHL coach carousel. There are already several job openings, with others to do potentially. We have seen a new name added to the list like Mike Sullivan was released by Pittsburgh Penguins and Rick Tocchet left the cannucks. He jumps at the top of the list which includes David Carle and Joel Quenneville.
And speaking of Carle and Quenneville, the two men are linked to the work of the Anaheim ducks. We know that Carle, who has two years on his contract at the University of Denver, withdrew his name from the opening of the employment of the Chicago Blackhawks. This does not mean that he is not interested in another NHL work. The belief is that he will stay in Denver. However, it would be a good choice for the Young Anaheim Ducks team, not someone like Quenneville.

Reminder, Ducks GM Pat Verbeek Think that his team is a team in playoffs next season. We will see on this subject. He dropped Greg Cronin after a jump of 21 points in the standings. According to Jimmy Murphy from RG MediaThe Ducks have offered work to Quenneville if he wants. However, do players want a coach like that because they didn't like Cronin with a hard nose?
How long will Quenneville train after his return? It looks more like a movement than Buffalo Sabers would do. Well, they did it when they brought back Lindy Ruff. Since NHL is a copy league, why not follow the best teams? The best teams allow their coaches and players to grow together, as we see with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Jon Cooper.
As Dan Rosen de NHL.com said it to Scott Laughlin and Gord Stellick on the radio of the Sirius XM NHL network, he thinks that David Carle with Anaheim ducks has the most sense.
“Where I look more, it's like Anaheim, right?” I mean, Anaheim, for me, is a great job. It's a younger team with dedicated veterans players there in (Ryan) Strome and (Alex) Killorn, RADKO GUD And a number of guys. And they also have younger players who develop. They went up this year.
They excelled and were better this year than last year. So listen, it even surprised me a little that they made the coaching change, but I didn't think Greg Cronin was going to last for too long. And I think that if they are ready to take the next step, for me, it was as if his work (Cronin) was to bring them where they are now, and now it brings another guy to take the next step with this team. And that's where they should be.

And I look at that, and I am like, WOW, if you are a coach, like a younger coach, and you are looking to grow. You can grow with this team. It reminds me a lot of Jon Cooper when he came with Tampa Bay all these years ago, right? I know he was already in the AHL with them, and he came for Guy Boucher and but he was a younger coach. His first job in the NHL which was a younger team, and they were trying to grow together. And he had brought all these guys he had with him to Norfolk, and they came, and they grew up together. And you see where it's now, right?
For me, that's what Anaheim could have a chance to be. And if you look at a guy like Carle, like me, it's good work. It's a perfect job for him.
But it makes sense with Trevor Zegras,, Mctavish,, Lukas had,, TROY TERRY,, Leo Carlsson,, Cutter Gauthier,, OLEN ZELLWEGER,, Drew HellesonAnd Pavel Mintyukov. He is a good young nucleus with whom to grow, with Jacob Trouba. GUD, Frank Vatranoand Strome. It's a good team that needs the good guy to grow up with them for the coming years.
The best fit is David Carle. But again, does he want to make this NHL jump? If he does it, it's an excellent place for him. But Carle was firm on his conviction that he wants to go to the right situation where he can win. Carle said that after having guided the US a consecutive world junior medals.
Do Anaheim ducks have a plan under GM Pat Verbeek?
But the Anaheim ducks arrive. It will probably not be next year, but it could be in two or three years. This is why a younger coach makes more sense than an older guy like Joel Quenneville in Anaheim.
