Thanks for putting up the poll... Other than Kent Hehr who played College hockey with the Mount Royal Cougars, I'm the only candidate with any formal hockey background. I was Coach of the Year in the CJHL back in 1990. Coached the NW Stampeders back then. I was also President of Canmore Minor Hockey Association. I started coaching when I was 13. I was also the first Coach & General Manager of the Airdrie Xtreme. Operated a hockey school where I booked and worked with Jarome Iginla & Chris Pronger. Also coached and played in Europe, both during my time in the PPCLI & after my military career.
I'm not suggesting that having a 30 plus year connection to hockey makes me a better candidate, just some trivia for the board...
And my opinion on polls/predictions...?
