The Kings hired Pierre Turgeon as their offensive coordinator and it’s helped them in part improve their team offence. All options should be on the table for this organization. Kovalev or someone like Kovalev/Turgeon could help this impotent team.

I wouldn't be against it. Imagine the work he could do with Scherbak.

Bergevin, Lapointe, Mellanby, Lefebvre, Daigneault, etc. being able to bring in Kovalev and accept him working with players on their offensive skills instead of their grinding? Yeah don't buy it.

Kovalev should wait for the cleansing.

I thought Bergevin was courting Kovalchuk for a second. Pretty sure the man will be back in NA in time for the playoffs.

But Kovalev... maybe as a skating coach? Our players can't pull half the puck control moves in Kovalev's arsenal so don't come here "creating" Kovalev hockey our guys can't execute lol.

Ya I don't know if he would actually be a good coach.

Does he not own/manage a team in Europe?

Maybe a dumb question, buuuuuuuuut... is this just a 'headline' or is there an article that I just can't see ? (unless my browser decided to play tricks on me)

No it isn't. It comes off as desperate from him. And since when is good player = good coach? In fact it's rarely true.

He's not looking for a head coach gig. He's looking for an offensive coordinator position, which is starting to become more popular these days. He'd basically just help players with their skating, shooting, positioning, etc. It's on the same level as a conditioning coach.

The Kings also replaced their coach with a guy who opened up their all D game style.

Dustin Brown is reborn and the Kings are back in it.

You would need to 1st replace our coach.
