A deal of Dubinsky, Erixon, a 1st and 2nd is a "good" offer. Ducks want an overpayment for Ryan and won't accept less until they are forced to. I think the coaching change just buys them time.
They lost in the SO yesterday. If they keep losing in regulation I think they'll start seriously entertaining offers for Ryan again.
For all we know they might not have stopped. they just shut the media down.

What is says is that there were two options, a shakeup or a coaching change. They didn't like the offers they got for Ryan (Hence Brooks' and Dregers' tweets) so they changed coaches. Ducks had asked for permission to talk to BB on monday.
I'm putting it out of my mind for now. Really got my own hopes up on wednesday night
. If it happens it will happen, but the Brooks quoted price of 2 nhlers, and pick and prospect just isn't feasible for us midseason, especially not a month or so from now. I think if anything it would happen at the draft, but then I'm not sure we could give the best offer. oh well.
