Hockey Coach

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He left the Avalanche at mid-season to take the Blues head coaching job (1997).
    He failed to get the Blues to the Stanley Cup Finals during his tenure.
    Despite leading the Blues to the best regular season record in franchise history, he failed to lead them past the eighth seed Sharks in the first round (2000).
    He took the job as head coach for the Canadian National Team, only to resign before the team played a game (2004).
    He bounced around between the NHL and the minors during his playing career.
    He allegedly showed no care or concern towards the wellbeing of a Blackhawks player who was sexually assaulted by a member of his coaching staff, going as far as calling it a distraction when the report was initially made.
    He was forced to resign from head coaching position with the Panthers, in part to his role in covering up a sexual assault allegation during the Blackhawks 2010 Stanley Cup championship run (October 28, 2021).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is considered a player's coach.
    He left the Blues as the all-time winningiest coach in franchise history.
    He guided the team to their first Western Conference Finals appearance in 15 years (2001).
    He coached the North American All-Star team (2001).
    He is involved with numerous charitable causes.
    He made the term 'Whalermania' famous.
    He was an assistant coach for the Avalanche team that won their first Stanley Cup title in their first season in Denver.
