Yeah, I don't get this. He was a cancer everywhere he went. He might have a great hockey mind, but he's a certified douchebag. Then again, some douchebags make effective coaches.

I'd like to see him be involved with player negotiations so he can see what a pain in the ass HE was. Kinda like when I was getting in trouble as a kid and my mom would say, "I can't wait for you to have kids of your own..."
