There is concern about potential effects whenever a member of the coaching staff departs from the St. Louis Blues. You have that constant attitude as long as the head coach is still in place, but even replacing assistants may cause major disruptions to plans.
Things seemed to change when the Blues lost assistant Kirk Muller years ago. The Blues exited the second round after finishing as Conference finalists.
The fact that the Blues benched Muller in favor of Mike Yeo further compounded that defeat. That led to the disastrous idea of having Yeo succeed Ken Hitchcock, but ultimately, the Blues’ history turned out nicely.
Upheaval follows triumph. Teams believe they can steal your assistant coaches’ strategies when you win.
The Blues have gone through this before and will go through it again in the future, both before and after Muller. They won’t have to put up with it for very long, at least.
