Also his wife and family are originally from here. I am just taking a guess but I think it makes some sense

I remember a couple of years after Al left Calgary reading how he and his family felt like St.Louis was home and it was like they had lived there all their lives. He still works for them and i believe that his children have grown up and still live in St.Louis.
By no means do i think Al has anything bad to say about Calgary, but i do think his heart is in St. Louis. Like i said in another post, both teams wanted to retire his jersey in the same year and he chose the Blues. Nothing wrong with that.
Anyway this thread is about Shanny and maybe who they might hire instead of him. My guess if its done before the season it is Nieuwendyk. I actualy don't think they will hire anybody.
