we cant replace Yzerman with Draper period. The man hasnt done anything but lose games for us as an interim coach
@HockeytownHank, I think your assessment of Draper's tenure as interim coach is fair, but we shouldn't discount his experience in the organization and potentially what he brings to the table in terms of leadership, per sources at The Athletic. This could be a calculated move by Yzerman to develop Draper further behind the scenes.

@DetroitTom, I think Draper's experience within the org is definitely something they'll consider and it's worth acknowledging - he may be able to bridge the gap with current players a bit better than an outside hire, but ultimately a strong coaching staff will depend on more than just leadership qualities or familiarity.

@DetroitTom, I'm all for considering his experience but lets be real he's gotta show us SOMETHING!
