I've always liked what I've seen from Ward as a coach. I like the way he thinks the game.
However, I don't know enough about the other AHL teams to rank him among the other coaches in the league.
I think he's the most important part of the rebuild actually, as he's involved in turning boys to men. The way he preaches professionalism is quite inspiring. But I think we lost 2 asst coaches this year and only brought in 1, so he could probably use another set of eyes in that sense.
