Is it after 15 seasons with no playoff wins? 20 seasons? How long of a leash should Marvin be given? I really want to know the answer to that question. Marvin himself stated that 'just getting there isn't enough', so when is the cutoff line, or is there even a line at all in your opinion?
What 'could happen' in the future is nothing but conjecture, good or bad. But, what's happened in the past is a fact. A fact that hasn't been altered in 13 years under Marvin's leadership. As I said in the OP, I respect the hell out of Marvin for a number of reasons, but at the end of the day...if all we're left with is excuses for why we fail in the postseason, instead of at least one victory, then how much more time should be invested in a HC that has proven he can't achieve the end result?
What happened last night is probably a double edged sword. The method of losing is reason for termination. OTOH, the fact that they were so close to winning is reason enough to MB to stay the course, as if he would do anything else.
