Anyone have a list of viable candidates for the 6-7 head coaching opportunities in the NHL?
- one possibly can't say that the best Russian,Finnish,Swedish (and others) coaches wouldn't do better job what,
lets say... any of the coaches Edmonton Oliers have had in the past. European coaches whom won
countless of national titles, world titles, world junior titles,... etc. etc.
He isnt bad, he got a lot out of a NYR team without any elite skaters and a pretty poor defensive group. Sure he has some weaknesses but he is far from a bad coach compared to the average NHL coach. His biggest weakness is developing young players and he doesnt trust his young players at all so he give veterans more ice time than they deserve.I don't think he's good per se, but AV will have his tyres kicked I'm sure.
IF Jets crashes we bred a new coach, but I have No clue who.
Who needs a coach?
Edmonton
Buffalo
I believe Ottawa has an interim right now
Winnipeg may after a quick exit
Tampa if they lose to Columbus
Pascal Vincent or a guy with experience
Or a longshoot: Dale Hawerchuk
