He was given the choice, but Nelson still wanted to be a head coach. The Red Wings pay their AHL HC as well or better than NHL Associate coaches.
Nelson still only got sub mediocre results at best in the NHL. He knows as well as anyone that the culture ingrained in that core group won't win in the NHL.
