In Crawford's defense, it's impossible to be near Sean Avery without wanting to kick him.
Red Wing fan here, when Avery was a Red Wing, he pissed off both coaches and teammates
Fact!
Just ask Dustin Brown.
Yup
Exactly
Tortorella as number 1 seems unfair to say the least. Torts is a hothead and has a coaching style that not every player will enjoy, but he doesn't seem to be abusive like some of the coaches on this list.
Well, he’s coaching my team now so I pray to God that he works out.
Yeah, I think he actually defends his team and players quite well, hence why he gets quite annoyed and defensive to reporters. I’ve never really heard any complaints about him from players who played under him.
I don’t know where this guy got this about torts. Most of his players love playing for him. There have been numerous interviews with former players who give torts credit. I think the media has more to do with his bad rep than the players.
There’s a difference between being a tough coach and an A-hole.
Tortsy is a tough coach.
Babcock is an a-hole
@@Joe-gi3nj agreed 👍
Keenan should have been #1. He'll go down in history as the only coach who won a Stanley Cup and was basically fired during the off-season. The explanation was that Rangers management failed to pay him a contract bonus, voiding his contract. The real reason was that the players turned on him, to the point where he was actually banned from practices by the players, who won the championship despite him.
He was hated on the Hawks
Blew the '92 Finals
@@daniellinehan63nah in 92 he ran into prime Mario Lemieux
Not only did he run into Mario, he faced prime Gretzky twice in SC final.
the man coached to 4 cups winning one say what you want to about him but he put his players in prime position against the elite.
Why is Tortorella number 1? He doesn’t seem mean and twisted like the others on this list… just a hot head ball of fire.
I love his comment to 'brooksie' a total airhead
I agree with everyone but torts. He doesn’t mess around, he holds the players accountable no special treatments, just hard work and most amount of teamwork. He also stands up and defends his players when media are trying to make something out of nothing, even defends his players on the ice giving the refs hell when they should have made the call. Plus of course, he isn’t cliche with the media which is great cause they really do ask stupid questions.
i remember when he tried to fight an entire team by himself
I am happy to have him in philly
From what I've heard he actually sits down and listens to the players too, he's like a dad that's an absolute dick to you all the time, but deep down really loves you, that's torts
There is an unlimited supply of idiot reporters who ask an infinite number of stupid questions.
Diversity hiring hasn't helped that -- all we get these days is social media spokeschicks and some gut in TO named Faisal telling me about MLB baseball. Really now.
@@RaceDefendImportTunerTeam exactly the kind of coach these femboys are afraid of... a guy that drives you to be a WINNER not a 7th place trophy handler
Putting Torts ahead of Keenan lol :D
I was at a high school party back in the mid 90’s that slowly started getting out of hand. Out of nowhere Scotty Bowman was at the front door breaking the party up. It was awesome and that’s all I’m gonna say.
I read tiger Williams biography. He had some choice words for Bowman
Haha that's fantastic. What a memory
Well....he is a mutt.
No one liked Bowman, he was a pompous ass
Avery could have used a few more kicks , apparently one wasn’t enough.
He deserved every beating that came his way.
Indeed
Still does as a retired player.
Wish I saw your comment before I just posted the same thing!
I actually like tortarella it was amazing when the blue jackets players ( artemi panarin bobrovsky and Matt duchene) signed somewhere else and was still able to get them to a playoff spot witch was the best coaching from a coach that coaches a shitty team I’ve seen from a coach
Tort's biggest fault is that he is very good at sensing the hidden agenda. SO often reporters try to pit one against the other, and he hates that. and he will call it. They also ask very stupid questions..
Pretty sure Tortorella isn't as hated as it seems, even amongst players. One huge factor that contributes to his reputation is that he is very harsh on reporters who ask stupid questions and in return they retaliate when they write articles about him or when they are summoned on a panel and find a way to bash him live. Over time I've seen the other side of Torts that we rarely see in the medias: he is 100% invested in his team's success, very humane behind the scenes, spends time and money on charities... I would never put Tortorella and Keenan in the same sentence.
No he's hated thats why he wears out his welcomes soon after he arrives.
I agree with your take on him. (But you did put them in the same sentence. 😊)
@@r3tr0actiongamer24 some thin-skinned superstars that don't backcheck, really don't like him, so ya.
Okay. Fair point. Popular imagination has him brutal, like Herb Brooks.
HUGE thumbs up Tor's cares.. He can get totally blunt with the media, but they deserve all the crap then get. Respect to folks like Cassie Campbell,, Gino Reta, .. they give respect
Get a beer or 12 into Brett Hull and ask him about Keenan. Make sure you’ve got another 12 pack and the next 3 hours free.
That would literally be awesome!! I'd be thrilled to buy that beer.
@@thosetwodudes Oh to listen to Uncle Brett verbally disembowel Keenan? Hell, I’d buy him shots of Pappy VanWinkle all night if he wanted. The entertainment received in exchange would be priceless.
I had an EX who never watched hockey , when we were watching highlights she saw Keenan and said,"That guy looks like he beats his wife". Wow.
She sounds like a smart lady. Sorry she is now your Ex
I don’t think that Tortarella is that bad. Just kind of a salty guy. Keenan and Babcock should be tied for #1
Tortorella likes to pass himself as a tough guy. Runs his mouth.
Some of the stories of Crawford I've heard are brutal. Even a former ref talked about Crow as being one of the only people he won't even give the time of day to. Said he was a monster.
Who's Chico RUSH? It's Chico RESCH!
Sean Avery talking about someone being abusive is funny. he is the biggest most disrespectful bully ever to play in the NHL.
I would much rather have had Torts as a coach than any of the others. The only times I've seen players in his dog house is when they were not playing hard, especially if they weren't doing their defensive responsibilities. I'm sure that the other players on the team would have loved that about him
Agree. Tortz is just a bit nuts, the others are manipulative psychopaths.
I like Tortarella because he has a lot of charisma and he clearly resents the media obligations that are required in the modern NHL
Without the media, we as fans would not be able to watch the games. I agree that there are a lot of dumb questions asked to coaches and players alike. But acting like a baby about it is indeed childish. Especially for a man who so obviously focused on being a tough professional, yet he throws more tantrums than anyone out there.
He's also threatened to punish players if they ever protested police brutality via sitting out for the anthem. And of course he made this statement while having a black player on his team. Looking it up, I see he finally reversed his stance on that, sort of. He seems to still think he should be making the final call on what a player will be allowed to do though. "I would hope that if one of my players wanted to protest during the anthem, he would bring it to me and we would talk about it, tell me his thoughts and what he wanted to do." Sorry, John, this still isn't about you.
You know, I’ve actually always got a kick out of Tortorella. A lot of sports reporters ask dumb questions (yeah, as an Oilers fan, we have to deal with Mark Spector). So, I can totally get why Torts gets annoyed with them. I personally never really have heard of any issues with Torts and any of his players, and from what I gather, most enjoy(ed) him as a coach and respected him.
As for the rest, yeah they are/were pretty terrible all around coaches.
@@IRanOutOfPhrases "He's also threatened to punish players if they ever protested police brutality via sitting out for the anthem. And of course he made this statement while having a black player on his team. Looking it up, I see he finally reversed his stance on that, sort of."
You are either misinformed to what actually happened, or you're purposely leaving out several facts. I'm guessing a little bit of both because it looks like you probably blindly trust the media which is pretty ridiculous. Maybe I'm wrong but lets clear a few things up.
First off, it was a WORLD TOURNAMENT, not an NHL game like you misrepresented it as. These kids and coaches are representing their country, not the Columbus Blue Jackets. In 2016 the US was very much divided because of the lies the media was putting out there. World games, the World Cup, the Olympics etc are a time for coming together and having fun, a time for heeling and remembering the good. Not for playing follow the leader behind a washed up football player who's throwing temper tantrums because he's on his way out of the NFL and for media attention and endorsements from NIKE a company that still participates in child labor crimes. Did you know that Johns son Nick is a member in the U.S. Army's 75th Ranger Regiment? Did you know at the time of the tournament that John was coaching that Nick was over seas? Yeah if my son was in the military in harms way while coaching in a WORLD TOURNAMENT I would tell the players on my team that "if you sit on the bench during the anthem you will sit during the game". Did you also know that Torts never told them they couldn't talk to the media or voice their concerns or opinions on what was going on. He never tried to stop their freedom of speech. Did you know that Seth Jones (the black player you're talking about) when goated by the media about the whole situation said "I'm just here to play hockey" and "I think it's fair" that Torts made that rule. He cares about the anthem, and regardless of your opinion he has skin in the game. People should think before the comment or "protest" things they don't understand.
When you say "police brutality"? You mean when the media and a portion of the population ASSume the police were wrong and being racist because race is all they think about and play on 24/7 without knowing all the facts? Yeah and then when all the evidence comes out proving them wrong in 90% of these cases they bury the story when it doesn't go their way, or they straight up lie. I watched it with the Kyle Rittenhouse case. Watched the entire trial, and so did the media, but they call him a racist murderer when all he did was defend himself against 3 WHITE men including a pedo. Pretty sure this was 2016 and the "protests" were mostly about the Michael Brown case. Well turns out Michael not only assaulted and stole from the poor little store owner but then not only disobeyed police orders he tried to physically attack the cop and take his gun. People lying saying he was shot in the back as he was "running for his life". Dammit, here comes that pesky forensic report. Oh look, seems Mr. Brown was shot in the chest being as it's super easy to tell the difference between an entrance wound and an exit wound. But hey, facts only matter when they agree with the lefts opinion.
This is why I know longer call myself a democrat or liberal even though these people are far left loons and nowhere near being a classic liberal. I still support several policies on both sides, but this has become crybaby bullshit. Spoiled idiots complaining about how bad they got when they've never actually been to other countries especially 3rd world countries. Scream oppression without knowing what oppression actually is. I loved how when Trump announced his run for POTUS in 2015 about a hundred Hollywood actors said they would leave the U.S. if he got elected. How many left? 1!! One of them left and he wasn't even gone a year and he was a Mexican citizen anyways lol. Now why do you think that is? Maybe because these people have been around the world and know just how bad it is outside of the U.S. lol.
@@moappleseider1699
That he said it in the context of an international tournament doesn't change anything. Americans have protested the anthem in the Olympics before. Its not new. There were lots of protests getting snuffed out in most recent Men's World Cup. Iran in particular made gestures on the field and statements in the press. Then there was also the US team in the women's World Cup who also had their own kneelings during the anthem. And of course, long before that is the very famous photo with Tommie Smith and John Carlos raising their fists instead of covering their heart while on the podium to receive gold and bronze medals as the American anthem played. Sports and politics are inseparable. You want to speak about how its all about unity. Was the Miracle on Ice about the unity of America vs Russia? Or did that turn into a large symbol of America's superiority over its bitter political rival in Russia? This isn't Barney & Friends.
But you can also read Tortorella's quote on his backpedal a few years later and its clear that his 'threat' didn't apply to just games at international stages, that he "learned over the years" and his perspective on it has changed. So I appreciate your correction on the matter, but ultimately it doesn't change anything.
"Blindly trust the media" what a productive comment. You realize I could just as easily dismiss everything you said as a brainwashing too, right? Where does that leave us then?
What's really weird though is you initially try to act like the fact that it was at the international stage is a key point. Yet, you still feel the urge to go on and on about how you don't believe in the movement. So I'd venture to guess you don't ACTUALLY care about international level vs NHL level, that really you're just mad that anyone is doing it to begin with.
And yes, I knew that "John's" son (first name basis with him, eh? lolz) was/is in the military. That doesn't mean crap though. Do YOU realize it was a military member who suggested to Kaep that he kneel to begin with? It's fine if "John" has a different perspective on what the anthem means to him. If he wishes to stand to respect his son, he is free to do that. But the flag for everyone else is not just about "John's" son.
Please don't define what I think is police brutality. You're clearly awful at it. Why are you even talking about Rittenhouse, wtf? Your rant is only more reason and evidence that these protests and statements need to be had. And then you went into rambling about celebrities threatening to leave if Trump got elected?? What are you even on about now? I don't give a crap if you're republican or democrat, dude.
@@IRanOutOfPhrases You're not wrong about the world stage as far as sports and protests go, but everything is relative and this situation is different from the next. He has a son in the military who's MOS is pretty dangerous. His son has had to bury friends killed in combat. Tort's made a rule for players who play on his team. Entire teams have sillier rules than that. You can't grow facial hair if you play for the Yankees just for example. All he said was stand for the anthem. He told the players they can do whatever they want aside from that. And if he has that rule for his NHL teams to then oh well. There was no threat. It was a rule. I don't care what women's soccer does at all. I don't care what NFL players do. All these people have the right to free speech. But if the NHL (and I know I'm not alone in this) starts shoving BLM or any other political garbage into the game to the point that the NFL was doing, or the NHL has tried in the past I will turn it off. They tried that shit during the start of the playoffs during the COVID bubble and we did turn it off, and they lost ratings and lots of money, and then they cut that shit out real fast. I'm not mad but I have the freedom to spend my time doing something else. Hollywood does the same thing and I just refuse to watch their political BS.
You're complaining about an NHL coach who doesn't agree with your political interests lol. That's your reason for not liking him. That was what your "rant" was all about. I'm not mad at all buddy. I know for a fact that there is actual police brutality. I've personally had encounters with dirty cops and witnessed it myself, and I have no problem with it being fixed or protesting it. But shoving your politics down peoples throats will not end well when it comes to sports. I also don't have to support spoiled athlete's bitching about every case that rubs them the wrong way when they don't know all the facts yet. They take a knee on Sunday but don't do anything the rest of the week to fix a broken community? Also crying about the cops while ignoring the fact that there are major problems in the black community or that over 50% of violent crime in America is committed by young black males who make up a fraction of the population is pretty ridiculous.
"Blindly trust the media" what a productive comment. You realize I could just as easily dismiss everything you said as a brainwashing too, right?" and
"Please don't define what I think is police brutality. You're clearly awful at it." are laughable. In what way? Because I don't just listen to the news? Because I follow the cases and do a little research? Well golly I guess I don't know what I'm talking about then lol. How dare my stupid ass question the narrative of the MSM who puts their own political interests as priority #1 over reporting the truth and they do it constantly. I can make an educated guess as to what "you think police brutality is" but you more than likely aren't very keen as to what you're talking about. It's often people who are ignorant of a situation that are the loudest ones about it. Did you grow up in the ghetto? I did. Did you grasp the full scope of the situation of what happens there? I do. The cops aren't the only ones who bothered me, and I hate to tell you this but they weren't the ones I had to worry about the most. I brought up Rittenhouse as an example of the media being full of shit. I brought up the celebrities because they are full of shit. If you can't comprehend how that relates to what I'm saying then I can't help you. You can give me shit for calling a couple guys by their first name but it's all good when you refer to that moron as "Kaep" hahaha.
Punch Imlach. Many of his players in the late 60's on the Maple Leafs couldn't stand him. One being Frank Mahovlich, so he traded him to Detroit, and Toronto hasn't won the Cup since.
He won 4 Cups in the 60s including their last. He built the original Sabres that went to the cup final. Some guys didn't love Punch, but I would not pin the Leafs not winning a cup since on him. He traded Mahovlich to get Norm Ullman and Paul Henderson, both performed great in Toronto. The Leafs were in a rebuild and well what do you know before he could continue his work they fired him. Considering how he built the original Sabres would have been nice, also not getting Ballard as owner.
Good recommendation, Imlach was an SOB who belongs on this list.
I never understood why Yzerman hated Babcock. Now I know
Shanahan probably hated him too.
And they barely played with him compared to Lidstrom and Datsyuk and Zetterberg. Such an overrated piece of trash
He's a dangerously overrated hockey coach. The Red Wings winning the cup in 08 had nothing to do with his coaching, but losing the finals the next year had everything to do with his coaching.
@@CervezaModeloEspecial Sometimes I wish Paul MacLean took over that year since Todd McLellan was already with the Sharks.
@@dannythomas417 well if he did -it would not make much sense to go after him and make him by far the highest paid coach in history . I predicted both Wilson and Babs would flame out in Toronto - too much attention = they would be exposed - and they were
Mario Tremblay, Habs coach in 1996, left goalie Patrick Roy in for 9 goals against, finally took him out near the end of the game. Stared down Roy after Roy told the President that was his last game for Montreal. Worst coaching decision of all time. Roy went on to win the Cup with the Avs next season.
And coincidentally, Roy is also one of the biggest pieces of garbage in the game.
@@jasondashney As far as we know he didn't sleep with his sister in law
Mario only coached briefly for one team, he didn't get results, so luckily he didn't go around the league savaging teams in his wake.
agreed with all except kinda Torts. Tortorella is more divisive. Bill Peters should've at least been mentioned
I think it’s a bit unfair to put Tortorella as #1. Unlike the others on this list, he actually tries to change and modernize. The way he treated the players in Columbus was way different than in Tampa Bay.
plus the fact that Keenen is actually #1 on this list by far.
Going from Mike Keenan to crawford in Vanvouver lmao YIKES
That's what I was thinking. You don't normally go from the frying pan into the fire if you can help it.
Canucks were in trouble in the late 90s having Mike Keenan there was a train wreck they had some good seasons with Crawford but I know he was abrasive with the players that bertuzzi and Moore incident just showed his true colours
Leafs aren't much better, they've hired Babcock AND Wilson. A coincidence both those cities have not won anything in forever?
Keenan broke up what could have been a Stanley Cup for the Blues. The Blues had at least 5 players representing their countries in one of the Canada Cup Series. That many players could have equated to a Stanley Cup but Keenan screwed it up.
Wayne Gretzky hated playing in St. Louis because of Keenan
I'm from St. Louis, Keenan is a walking definition of persona non grata.
I’ve always been more amused by tortorella than angry with him. He’s like a caricature. He always looks like that goofy guy who is just caretaking until someone better comes along. And it’s so easy to call him tortellini.
Best coach Philly has had in a while. He's a great coach, he's just hard on his players. These are millionaires getting payed to play a kids game at a level that every one of us whishes we could play. So sorry if he's a little tough on his players lol.
@@moappleseider1699 but everything I said is true. He’s pretty much a caretaker type coach. I just find ol’ tortellini amusing.
100% agree on all that, even that nickname is familiar.
"caretaking until someone better comes along."
2 Jack Adams awards, a Stanley Cup, and he was behind the bench for the greatest upset in NHL history? Yeah, he sounds like quite the placeholder.
I remember when Torts was with the canucks storming to Calgary locker room during intermission.
He would've killed Bob Fartley errrr Hartley
In all fairness to Marc Crawford, Sean Avery IS Sean Avery.
I think tortz is a little crazy but you rarely hear about things from his players. I think you probably could've replaced him with Roy or even Darryl sutter. Their former players always talk ish about them
If people knew their history...Punch Ilmach should be the #1 most hated coach of all time.
Do an Owners video-
$1 Bill wirtz/ Arthur " no home games" Wirtz
No honorable mention for Scotty Bowman? He had a reputation for being tough on his players especially early his coaching career...ask Larry Robinson. Being tough is not the same thing as being hated though, I suppose.
@ toledo Bruce good call.. as an Avalanche fan I w rank him number 1 I only w Crawford could have gotten through the glass to attack him in that well known incident
Bowman was not psychopathic like some of these guys but he was a master manipulator who would also discover everything he could about your personal life and use it against you. A lot of players did not like him but it was a different era. Besides, he won everywhere he went.
Mike Keenan at 5 is shocking. UrinatingTree has a whole video about his career and volatility lol
Really... Sean Avery's among the least person whose opinion anyone should care for
I gleefully forgot that the pussnut even played in the NHL until this video.
To be fair, Mike Keenan should have been #2 on this list, if not #1. He was a violent man who also destroyed one franchise he did coach. Most of the others at least put their teams forward in the long run.
Tortorella was definitely not a safe person to be around. When he yells, you could hear him from the other side of the city. And his players either get the message, get intimidated, or quit.
As for Babcock, he did pull one antic that crossed the line and destroyed his integrity, but except for that, he did nothing unacceptable. He wasn't as violent as Keenan, but he was intimidating enough. Still, most of his team respected him.
But one missing name from this list was Scotty Bowman. He deliberately got adversarial and intimidating with his players, so they hated him 364 days a year, the 365th being the one they pick up their Stanley Cup ring.
Well said
As a Leafs fan the ultimate fall of Babcock was well deserved. What he did to Marner with the list was damn awful, but I love that it ultimately just backfired and made the players closer/united against Babs.
That's not even in the video. Like misleading ppl
Letting a bunch of immature, spoiled, over paid and under proven players dictate the direction of the club and over run the coach is team suicide and pure stupidity. Toronto will NEVER win with this group of Karens.
With babcock y'all would have had no problems passing trough first round 😂… so bad
Marner deserves it, big waste of money.
As a Red Wings fan, Im with ya Leafs fans. Babcock is the most overrated piece of shit of all time. Yay he coached a stacked team to an olympic gold medal. Yay he coached a stacked Red Wings team to a Stanley Cup, and then choked 2 games in 2009. Mike Babcock is the reason why Chris Osgood didn't win a 4th cup, 3rd as a starter, and isn't in the hall of fame. Babcock is 1 and 4 all time in Stanley Cup Finals clinching games. 1 and 4. 5 times he's played a game that could have clinched the Stanley Cup, 1 with Anahiem in 03, 2 with Detroit in both 08 and 09. Real legend there... and he's 0-2 in Stanley Cup Finals Game 7's also. He played too conservatively, would try and score a few goals and then just sit back like it's a soccer game and then blow a lead, or just never be aggressive enough early in games when it was 0-0. He absofuckinglutely will be in the Hall of Fame unfortunately... you would assume, he's ironically beloved by some but yeah, Detroit and Toronto fans and probably Anaheim fans too despise him for choking constantly. Maybe since the HOF is in Toronto yall can petition to keep him out, and we'll drive 3 hours north to help? :)
What I learned: Brett Hull is a beauty
I didn’t think too much of him during his playing days but I really like the guy now. Seems a lot more humble than I assumed he was during his playing days.
But he's an abyssmal tipper.
@@eldoabrahamson I don't understand the reference please go on lol
I remember writing letters to all my favorite hockey players when I was a kid. Hull was the only one to ever respond back. Not only did he send an autographed picture, he wrote a letter twice as long as the one I wrote him. Class Act!
I respect Brett Hull massively as a player; he changed the game. I don't respect Brett Hull so much for turning his back on Canada to play for USA, then getting away with a high stick tipped goal in the Canada Cup.
I love Torts the way he handles the media with there stupid questions.
You totally missed Tortorella storming the Calgary Flames dressing room
I remember that. It was kind of odd. In a scrap, I think he'd have ended up second best, but he is what he is. LOL. He does have passion
As a Hab, I never liked Michel Therrien👎👎👎
I know every coach gets frustrated with their players sometimes. But he seemed very personal with his displeasure. Then he had a SECOND stint with Montreal and was still the same🤢🤢🤢
That comment sbout Pittsburgh having "Goals" to be the worst defensive team in the NHL was pretty bad to say about the team you are working for.
Montreal competed because of Theodore his first stint and then of Price his second, not because of his coaching. Had Crosby in Pittsburgh, not his coaching winning games, his good players.
Therrien was awful. Never understood why Montreal hired him. Dude was a jerk.
@@Braktooth Only one reason, he speaks french.
I TRULY HOPE he never gets a third stint with Montreal. That would SUCK!!!
@@raantaas96 I'd have to give watching the team a pass for a bit.
Yeah, its been back to last seasons version of allowing at least 3 goals in the first period.
Therrien had one strategy as a coach. Dirty rat play with 5'9" 170lb marginally skilled forwards.
Oh I forgot another hated coach: Ted Sator who coached the Rangers and Buffalo Sabres in the 1980s. On both teams, the players hated him.
Mario Tremblay against any star player of the MTL Canadiens, definitely was reviled back then and still is to a lot of older fans
Tremblay should have been fired long before Patrick got traded.
@@Braktooth absolutely !
Torts' press conferences as the Rags' coach was always an event.
There's zero chance Torts didn't like it on some level.
As an Islanders fan I was surprised Mike Milbury didn’t make the list. Or at least get a mention
In Milbury's case it was his all-world levels of incompetence. He hung around only because he was an insider.
All the stuff about Marc Crawford doesn't surprise me. I had his brother Todd as a gym teacher is grade nine, and because our class wasn't upto his standards he went on an antisemitic rant saying he would shoot us all if we were in a camp.
Top kek.
That's not antisemitic. Only fraction of people who were killed during Germany's "nasty" period were Jews. 26 million Slavs (civilians) were butchered by them.
I don't know why, but not a single American seems to know this "little detail".
It's almost as if there was an agenda to push in your education system.
Another "pearl" can be the Pearl Harbour. You know, the so called "unprovoked surprise attack".
What you don't know is that the US invaded Hawaii in 1896. It was a Japanese territory and the Japanese navy that was far stronger than USN at the time decided to retread and resolve the incident with diplomacy, only that the US denied the invasion even occurring.
How can the 1941 attack be "unprovoked", or "surprising"? Bitch, you did the exact same thing to them.
how many rivers were cried that day....
Crawford is a piece of work. He actually smiled when Moore was injured. Definitely a sick individual.
To this day I wonder why the Avs still honor him. I would add Patrick Roy to the list. Duchene had a lot of problems with Roy, you definitely could see it. Love your insight.
I thought Bednar had problems. Why else you think they finished dead last his first season?
@@dannythomas417 Bednar did I agree. He was hired 2 weeks before Training Camp. A lot of the Avs players we're playing for their countries and were gone. I sat that season in an very empty Ball Arena. Avs definitely have come a long way, because of Bednar. Roy will never be given an opportunity to coach again in my opinion.
One of Roy's problems with Duchene was a game where Duchene scored his 100th goal or something while trailing by 4 or 5 goals and was celebrating like he won it in overtime
@@kanegarvey848 No wonder Wings fans hate this guy.
Crawford wasn't smiling. I saw footage, he looked shocked, concerned, and grim. And I don't know why the commentators said he had a smirk. If it were a smirk, it was very repressed.
Great coaches we need more of that love now a days
“I knew your father before you did and I don’t think he’d be too proud of what you’re doing now.” - Scotty Bowman
Brutalized. 😂
I'm surprised you didn't mention how Babcock treated Mitch Marner. That was the worst thing.
Head coaches rarely communicate with players. Imo this is done to keep a working relationship. It's hard to push buttons when things are going poorly and you're best friends with players. Assistant coaches on the other hand are the ones that players go to and then they relay to the coach.
Hitch is known to be one of the smartest hockey minds in hockey. But everyone else on the list I agree with.
The liked him in Kamloops. 2 Mem cups but I think he had Recchi, Niedermayer and hard nosed Chis Murray
Having guys who won a cup on this list is a mistake. Every guy on that cup team respect that coach and loves him for getting to lift lord Stanley.
As a canucks fan, I’m very disappointed they hired Keenan. He had a history of winning cups, but he brought a terrible attitude with him to the Canucks.
I knew it was over when htey hired him.
He only won one cup with the rangers in 1994
Yes once mark messier and mike Keenan came to the Canucks organization. Train wreck
lol back in the day the rumor was Jacques Lemaire was hated by all of his players, they might've hated the guy but he was an excellent coach. I guess he was dictatorial behind the bench. There were quite a few coaches that had that label. Mike Keenan was another one, Pierre Pagé etc.
Love the fact this "youtuber" is about 12 years old. Never heard of Punch Imlach. Toe Blake. Eddie Shore. This is the problem with laziness on the internet. No background. Just the now. Perhaps when they grow some deeper skills they will have a greater appreciation for the topic.
true dat. I was waiting for Punch to be mentioned. Of course nothing. I have a friend. an older gent who knew all those Leafs from the 60's and he said they lived in fear of Punch. because he could end your career. Even Scotty Bowman was despised by the Canadiens and Wings players.
I lent Keenan a set of carbon ski poles for a trip he was going on, he never returned them…. not a surprise with his reputation.
I'm not sure about Tortorella, but the others sure seem like A**holes. There are others, not necessarily coaches who should be on this type of list. Star's Ceo Jim Lites, for example, who called the media in expressly for the purpose of abusing Jamie Benn & Tyler Seguin, simply over one game. Completely unacceptable. And abusive behaviour is what you'll really get remembered for.
I worshipped Brett Hull. He was the one that got me really hooked on Hockey. A really good, strong guy with great ethics. Thank Christ guys like him exist to cancel out the wankers.
Im not sure about the others being a-holes, but Im damn sure Torts is
I still love Tortsie's verbal spars with Larry Brooks. Brooks is a fucking hack who doesn't seem to understand the difference between reporting and editorial, so the verbal smackdowns he was on the receiving end of were always so satisfying.
As a Canucks fan I hate Keenan the most . Him and Messier can pound sand. Trevor Linden's trade was travesty.
I was so angry. Eff those two.
I'm surprised scotty bowman is not on this list, as much as I like him, check out and see what some of the old Montreal Canadian STAR veterans say about him, it's not nice.
Bowman's kid covered up that sexual abuse scandal in Chicago - disgusting
@@daniellinehan63 i mean serisouly.... it like saying Joe Biden is taking all the decision atm,you really that clueless
Torts ruined more than one player on the Rangers. The one good thing about him is he loves animals and has done a lot of good to help stray dogs.
Uum okay..😂
F dogs
Classic Sociopath behavior.
@@daveyboy_ that's killing dogs and cats, I think you have your serial killer fetish backwards
@Sol Star I never said 'serial killer' I said Sociopath. Textbook Sociopath. Good to animals but heinous to other humans .
It seems like Babcock's real reputation was the most protected or the least exposed right up until his last NHL game. Fittingly he's no longer coaching and the hockey world is better without him.
This is a fantastic and very detailed video. Please take this minor criticism as support and not anything else….
You said “most hated coaches of all time.” When in reality they are the most hated coaches in the past 40 years. You go back deeper Jack Adams would make all 6 of these guys combined
look toothless and he had the ability to do a ton more than these guys bc the NHLPA didn’t exist … and when it started the first time he was a catalyst behind shutting it down and sent Lindsay to Chicago…..
In short… great list, it needs to be said “since 1980”
I never noticed this when he was with my Ducks, when did it first happen? Wilson and Babcock were both coaches at Anaheim early in their coaching career.
I've had bosses like these. The difference is that I would have gotten fired if I was openly critical of them.
These guys are usually cool with the superstars though. That's why they keep their jobs. The stories of what Mark Messier and others got away with with Keenan are hilarious. They didn't have to follow the rules so they didn't give a shit. I think that makes the superstars a bunch of dicks. If I was an MVP and I saw my coach abusing one of my friends and teammates I'd march into the owners office and say that coach goes and it's not up for discussion.
Scotty Bowman should have been on this list. Scotty Bowman was a very successful coach, but the reason why he was a successful coach was he treated his players that he coached like garbage. A few players that Scotty Bowman coached have said when the time comes when Scotty Bowman passes away, when they are attending his funeral they will relieve themselves by urinating on Scotty Bowman grave stone.
Scotty was hated 364 days a year. The 365th day was when the team got the Stanley Cup rings.
The only thing Keenan knows about goaltending is that he couldn’t score on one. He also used and abused Grant Fuhr until he was so worn down he ended up getting injured
Mike blew the '92 Cup for the Hawks
Torts vs that fan is kind of missing context when you say it was just normal heckling. The fan literally dumped a beer on him, I don't blame him for being pissed!
That was great. I didn't know what assholes some of those coaches could be... Sure they justify it by what the players make, but damn. Also, a couple of the quotes you pulled could have stayed up a little longer. There was more to what a couple players said, and you cut it to quick. I had too go back and pause it. Great video all around.
This shit might win you a title here and there, but it gets old quick.
As a Chicago fan, I would cite Mike Ditka and Ozzie Guillen as prime examples.
There is no way Torts should be on this list. He never, ever, disrespected his players. Even those who had troubles with him say he cared deeply for them, taught them so much about life, and many became friends with him later on. My guess he’s on this list because opposing teams and opposing fans hate him, but not his players. Some do, for sure. But they tend to be hotheads, immature, and egotistical.
Haha, okay.
Crawford, Keenan, Tortorella … Canucks could have run the gamut if they’d only hired Wilson and Babcock.
Don’t worry the Canucks will make up for it by hiring other putzes
9:39 I can't believe I forgot about this moment. It was all the rage and making headlines everywhere back then.
This is the first video I've seen from you, but can say that I've hit the subscribe button right away. You deserve more subscribers and views. Keep up this brilliant work, bro! Greetings from Slovakia and a Red Wings fan 😎
I remember watching Oilers vs Stars in 99-00 season and the camera showing the Dallas bench caught Hitchcock saying "move your fucking asses"
That's no revelation, almost all hockey coaches have had to do that a time or two.
So Ted Nolan having an affair with Dominic Hasek's wife didn't make this list?
Respect goes both ways. You need to give it to get it. All of these old vindictive coaches need to get retired.. just like Babcock did to himself in Columbus! These players don't need your drama & surely aren't going to play your mind games! Forcefully retire them all!
John Torts so far hasn’t been able to elevate the Flyers from the cellar of the Metropolitan Division.
Things have changed apparently
Love Torts he turned Columbus into the team they are today. Love his smartsss comments to the media, and tells the dumb media if their questions are dumb and dosent answer what the media wants them to hear
The team they are today is in last place lol. Just saying.
Another Dithka
Not sure Torts entirely deserves to be here. Sure, he can be unpleasant, but not sure he bullies his players unlike the other four.
Interesting that 5 of the 6 won Stanley Cups and 3 of those took multiple teams to the finals.
and the real mens on their team never complained about anything
Like saying Hitler successfully invaded multiple countries. He eventually got his comeuppance.
Crawford was such a punk. I still love how Scotty Bowman and the Wings lived rent free in his head. And Babcock was an overrated fraud who road to a cup on Scotty's coattails.
Torts is awesome. He’s not an outta control hothead, just a passionate Italian who wants to win!
Mark Messier said Mike Keenan was the best coach he ever had.
John Tortorella is the best around just put this way he wins a Stanley Cup for the Tampa Bay Lightning first to ever do it I give this man respect for that what he's done in the past is just funny
All of those guys expect Wilson won the Stanley Cup, and Wilson made it to the Final and won the World Cup. Maybe players have just gotten soft over the years🤷♂️
My thoughts as a (relatively) well-informed outsider who played the game at a decent level:
Babcock and Keenan are plain psychopaths
Hitchcock, at least here in STL, seemed demanding but respectful of players. I know a few people who have met him and never heard anything bad. He’s a hockey savant who might understand Xs and Os better than anyone else alive. But he does seem like he’s a perfectionist and stubborn and I can see how that can get old. Im also don’t think he’s the best at personal relationships, even if he’s far from the worst
Everything I’ve seen from Tortorella makes him seem like a kind of coach I would love to play for, but as for perfectionism and stubbornness, see my comments on Hitch. I could also see how that would suck if you end up on his bad side
Wilson just seems like he ran into two players who had long careers of being coach killers. But idk much else about him
Crawford, I don’t know much about him
Keenan cost the Blues re-signing Gretzky.
Keenan, Hitch and now Torts. How do the Flyers keep doing this?
The Environment of Philadelphia is carcinogenic! Stoning Santa Claus+firing you know who
Good video. Keenan's teams win in spite of him, not because of him. He's a maniac.
Actually he was a very good coach at one time - until he won the Stanley Cup with the Rangers - his ego went off the hook - and was just an antagonist ever after
@@pjpredhomme7699 I disagree. He's a staff-splitter and played mind games with Leetch, Healy, et al. even before he won the SC.
Keenan benching Hawerchuk was classless.. much respect to Brett Hull for giving up Captaincy for Ducky ..
These are all same era coaches…how about Punch Emlock (misspelled on purpose as he did to his superstar player The Big M Mahovlich). He and Ballard caused Mahovlich to have a nervous breakdown. The greatest Leaf of all time Dave Keon refused to have anything to do with Toronto Maple Leafs for about 35 years, again thanks to punch.
Keon was great
"Disrespected players" on Babcock in the thumbnail is certainly whitewashing his biggest issues. It wasn't just disrespect, it was abuse. Aside from that, I felt like this achievements were overrated. I feel most coaches achievements are frequently overrated and don't think there really are any 'great' coaches. There certainly are bad coaches who completely disrupt and restrain teams. But a coach is doing his best when he's letting his players do the work. Do you honestly think it would have been difficult to coach the 2008 Red Wings? Datsyuk and Zetterburg were 29 & 27. Lidstrom, possibly the best defenseman ever, was a 5-year Norris winner, having just won it the last two years (and made it three in a row that season.) Coaching that team was easy-street
Regarding Tortorella, I most certainly do not "love to hate him." He's an awful person who holds racist ideals, as seen with his ignorant stances on anthem protests. I wish he was out of the league entirely as he makes it very uninviting for non-white people.
Agreed on Babcock’s “achievements.” My grandad could’ve coached Canada or that 08 Red Wings squad to success.
These guys don't seem to understand generations. They are stuck in their ways, with huge egos. What you can say to a 30+ year old player, you can't say to a 19 year old. I coached minor hockey for many years and how you talk to a 10 year old is very different how you talk to a 15 year old. The stuff Babcock did to Modano and Spezza is just so petty. Great video on these horrible people.
Torts changed big time. Vancouver was his wake-up call.
Top 6: Lots of people are on U T with stuff on hockey. Keep up the good work. You, Clay Imoo and a few others are worth subbing
I like Totrtz, the man is a smart coach imho. He takes it serious, and demands a high lvl of play, he’s a tad bit mad…..but to me that’s passion! Cheers all!
Really this list could have been like...
Mike Keenan
Punch Imlach
Robbie Ftorek
Jack Adams
Scotty Bowman
Idk about Torts #1
If any coach thinks they could put their hands on me without getting the fuck beat out of them they’re sadly mistaken.
Ron Wilson would throw his team under the bus.
Torts only one still around?
Surprised by that. He's a bit crazy but #1 should have been Keener.
Brett the Golden Sweat Hull mentioned he seemed to like annoying people. No doubt he got pleasure from it.
Any of the 6 in a conversation would seem as normal as Trump, Biden, Trudeau and Putin
Re: Torts being a hothead... Forgot to mention that time in Vancouver he tried to storm into the Flames dressing room
That was crazy! We're actually talking about that in our video releasing Sunday
@@top6hockey watched that one on tv when it happened. Couldn’t believe what I was seeing! Can’t wait for the video on Sunday!
😆😆😆 Storming eh? He made sure a bunch of security guys were between him and the locker room
