I like'em both.. should provide to be an interesting season.  I wonder if Calgary was out looking for Quinn as well.
They're going to park their car over there. You're going to park your car over here. Get it?

I don't think so.  The Flames have their eyes set on Brent Sutter I think.

Could be alright. Quinn got a bum rap in TO - he really pulled that team up from where they were.

It should be a good change for the Oilers. Quinn has done well in the past...although with the previous Toronto management his hands were pretty much tied when he coached the Leafs.

Excellent coach, remains to be seen whether or not the players are capable of playing for him though. Hopefully he'll at least inspire Gagner and Cogliano to do something.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

I would rather have Quinn in this league than Keenan (as proven recently).  Might be a good fit for you guys!  Just be prepared for the "how is this team different from your Toronto experience?" interviews.  :)

I think he will do way more for the team they people think, hew was a good coach for the leafs but was there too long and after awhile players stop listening.  Change is good.

p.s.   Atleast they went after a coach with experience.
I just hit V-TEC YO!! That's why my plate says ITLL GO!!

I think both of them will be a good fit. I'm very happy they didn't bring in another Oiler from the glory years.
