Greetings: My two cents: 1) I seem to recall a post some time ago that the coaching change impact in the NHL is greater than in the other big sports. 2) There is the old regression to the mean effect. We started terribly...far below expectations. Now we making up for it. The real question may be where we go in the next 10-15 games. They may be the best indicator of "real" status. That said, our goaltending is probably the best it's been in a generation. And as others have said, Berube may be coaching to the players he has on hand. His tight-checking, defense first approach may be best for his staff. Best, Howie
