Two American-born (Mass.) coaches in SCF

[Northerner]

Is this the first time for two American-born head coaches to faceoff in the SCF?


I think that's kind of cool. Congrats to Massachusetts...I don't even know if we Minnesotans can even claim one MN-born head coach in NHL!

Probably means we will have a national conference on the state of coaching in the near future.

Nice accomplishment for the US. They are slowly but surely claiming more and more ground in the NHL.

Don't look at me...I was STRONGLY rooting for the Sens..


It is an interesting thing I noticed just now though.



My question still stands though...is this the first SCF for that to happen?

 

[Chloraflora]

Yes, it is

 

[Northerner]

Well that's cool.


It only took America 100 years to produce an Art Ross Trophy winner. lol

Good for the US. These 2 are also amongst the best coaches in the league as well.
