long time coming
Really interesting. Sorokin has looked off so far. I wonder how uncomfortable he’s been with the current coaching
Appreciate the swiftness of this move. 3 game win streak and we’re only 6 games in but the organization is doing what needs to be done to improve rather than sit on their hands and hope for the best.
Another Lou guy gone.
I figured this was coming as soon as we had signed naumov but interesting to see it this early
I thought we were pro Greco? Were we only pro Mitch Korn?
Surprised but not surprised. I’ve felt that Greco and Korn were top notch goalie coaches. I get needing a change and Sorokin has been off lately, but I’m really curious as to the conversation and events that led up to this.
Seems Greco needed Korn
Darche is doing the work that Lou refused to do. Hopefully Naumov will be what Sorokin needs to get back to his elite capabilities.
