<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>2nd-pairing, 32 points on the year, and the only CBJ player to play all 82 games. He's an upgrade on nearly every team's 3rd pair, does lots of stuff well but nothing particularly great. Half-retained would be expected, so 2.375 against the cap for a good 2nd-pair, great 3rd-pair guy.

It's not out of the question that he lands a Tanev-like deal at TDL next season. Similar underlying metrics and similar contracts, but Provorov is younger and more reliable health-wise.</div></div>

He's a good 3rd pairing guy, but to say he's an upgrade on almost any team's 3rd pairing? Come on. He's not on Carolina, he's not on the Rangers, probably not on Dallas or the Islanders. Anyone with actually competent defensive depth. And he makes almost 5 million. Provorov's also got an off-ice reputation from his time in Philly.

Sujet: Hurricanes lineup for the playoffs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dnoe51</b></div><div>Well practice lines show that Drury is over KK. Also earlier in the season it was Drury over KK. Rod puts his trust in drury over KK. Rod has brought this team to the playoffs for 6 years in a row, he isnt the issue that you say he is, does he make questionable choices at times...yes, but he has shown the type of leader he is for the team and he is the coach that players would run though a brick wall for, that is what makes him a Jack Adams Winner</div></div>

Six years of playoffs, surely he's won 3rd round games to show for it! He's a problem. The skill of this roster is making the playoffs with him or another coach, he isn't the reason for the success. All he does is make questionable decisions and hold the team back, He's a players coach, but how many players coaches win the cup? Cooper's system did a double and players hate it. Let me put this into perspective. Scotty Bowman, the best coach ever, was hated for 364 days of the year. On day 365, the players were picking up their rings. Players liking you doesn't mean you're good. That's something you need to understand.
