    This is an absolute classic. Coaching rants often have a couple of quotable moments and last maybe a minute or so...this is almost 4 minutes of solid gold from start to finish (of course aided by Therrien's accent). Epic

    Will never forget this rant. I know Therrien's time ended by being let go in Pittsburgh, but he laid the foundation that got the Penguins their first Stanley Cup win. He got this team committed to playing defense and playing the right way. Dan Blysma kept some of those traits when he took over in February of '09, but took the handcuffs off and let the players be themselves.
    Unfortunately for Blysma he failed to adjust as teams caught onto the way he liked to play, but Therrien was very important to that cup win in '09.

    The Oilers and Leafs would really need a rant like this in 2021. The Pens were a similar team back then, a bunch of highly skilled young players who needed to be told how it was. Too bad Michel eventually was eventually chased out of Pittsburgh for this rant. One could say he could've won the cup that year instead of Dan Bylsma.

To this day, my oldest friends and I describe defensemen who don't apply the lumber in front of the net as Soffft. "I'm so disappoint ... about lots of guy. Very disappoint." But he gave credit to Max Talbot, the only guy to stand up for Crosby. And, it was Talbot's fight vs Carcillo the next year in the playoffs that sort of won them the series vs Philly.

    Word is, his wife was more of a Queen than him. So, though he was smart & ruthless in 1ish languages. She'd post if he didn't do 2min vs her or KovaChu, nowadays. Wow, eh, recipe, so, give & take. I'm so disappoint. thank you, salut la visite! lol 1 of the last epic rants.

      This was the 05-06 season, about a month after Lemieux's last game. Therrien wasn't fired until 2009

      They made the final the year before with him. "Jus say'IN". Bylsma was at the right place at the right time but it was still Therrien's team.
