‘Nolan is who he is and I have plenty of respect for him. The job of NHL coach has changed a lot since he was last here. Analyzing your opponent, exploiting their weakness while hiding yours. Match ups and zone starts matter. They matter to Tim Murray. Nolan to me sealed his fate when he was openly dismissive of this sort of thing. It doesn’t have to be your area expertise. It isn’t mine. I still struggle to interpret many of the charts I see posted online. I need my coach to be paying attention to any and all information that will help make the team better. Ignoring it is fine for a fan, that’s your choice. Being confused by it for me, while somewhat embarrassing, I can live with though I’m working on it. For the coach of the team? Unacceptable.’
