 Peter Laviolette's style is certainly different than John Stevens'. The yelling, the shirts and ties that don't come in a box at Marshalls, the obsession with Snow Patrol. Yes you read that right - Peter Laviolette is obsessed with the Irish/Scottish pop rock outfit called Snow Patrol. How do I know? In case you missed the Nashville feed last night, Laviolette was mic'd up in Music City. Among other things the Flyers head coach could be heard on the bench both yelling to no one and talking to individual players:
"Give me some fucking Snow Patrol!Wooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!"
"You think, you think Gary Lightbody gave up when that bitch Michael Morrsion left Snow Patrol? No fucking chance. You know what he did? He wrote Run. Now get out there and score a fucking goal!!"
"'If I lay here, If I just lay here, Would you lie with me, And just forget the world?' You jerk offs know what Gary Lightbody was talking about when he wrote that? He was talking about getting blazed the day after you win the Stanley Cup! And how do I know that? Because I did it!"
"What do we say, boys? We say play with your 'Hands Open' and your 'Eyes Open.' Just like Snow Patrol."
"I missed a Snow Patrol concert for this?!?"
"You think Snow Patrol's not scared when they go up against Coldplay on the Billboard charts every week? Well you're fucking right! They're not scared of shit! Except England. They're pretty convinced that England is gearing up for an attack on the remainder of the United Kingdom. So much so that they've written a song called Braveheart 2. I'm a little bit drunk."
"You think you're going to get on Grey's Anatomy like Snow Patrol did by playing like this? You gotta play with your baaallllsss out."
"Dear God, thank you for not letting this be the game that Snow Patrol decided to come see us because these DICKS don't seem to want to PLAY HOCKEY tonight. Also, thank you for CD players that give us such smooth replays of Snow Patrol's studio recordings and the tape doesn't come out and I have to stick a pencil in it and wind it up."
"Hey Craig, psst, Craig. You know who chews gum? Yep, just the only member of Snow Patrol who's been there from the very beginning. Gary Fucking Lightbody."
I wasn't able to get in touch with any of the players to see how this unique coaching style has impacted them. The Flyers seem to have turned it around to a certain extent. But that could just be their up and down nature shining through. Kind of like the way sunlight shines through cracked shutters.
