Well , in theory pretty much anyone could coach the Sabres.

The hard part is to coach them in to success.

"Pierre McGuire named head coach of Buffalo Sabres"

*Pierre stands 2ft away from Jack Eichel*

"You were a stud on the Boston Jr. Bruins, you put up 36 points as a 14-year-old, tell us about that!"

 

[Mattilaus]

seems less like a rumor and more like a "Hey, this guy could be coach because they have a bunch of swedes!"

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

What about that Swiss coach who looked really funny when he yelled?

 

[Oddbob]

Lots of good candidates out there already:

Dave Lewis
Barry Melrose
Peter Horachek
Steve Ludzik
Rick Ley
Pierre Page
Curt Fraser

Bring back Ted Nolan again. Third times a charm.

He'd just ask about his breath most likely.

 

[Ana Crusis]

That would be awesome!!

Pierre could coach the Sabres but when they the Kings he would confuse everyone by saying Double Dion all game long.

Would be awesome for the NHL, NHL needs more European blood.

Now obviously as a Finn, i'd wish the coach be Finnish, but.... baby steps, baby steps
Swedes seems to be first at everything, so no news there

There's already been a finnish coach in NHL, Alpo Suhonen in Chicago

 

[HanSolo]

I want him with the Ducks

 

[Marshall]

Dunno how it would work out or what the best fit would be, but I'd love having a European coach getting a good shot in the NHL again.

Gronborg is american citizen. Used to coach junior teams in USA.

 

[Jacob]

I think a Euro coach is going to have to take an AHL job or NHL assistant job before they get a HC job. And I'm not sure why they would do that.

Whats that, some type of dog food?

 

[Vikke]

Both Ulf (NHL assistant) and Kjell Samuelsson (AHL, NHL) have done that, haven't they?

Alpo Suhonen was already there. Maybe he would take a risk with Jukka Jalonen as an assistant? He has NHL ambitions still.

 

[Star Ocean]

Ivan Hlinka was the first
