I dont know, I've always like the idea of 'the people that couldnt make it.'

Fringe NHL'ers become good coaches because they had to really think the game in order to stick and translated that ability to coaching.

Its possible. A woman who could have been an NHL'er except for lack of physical strength could still have excellent insight from a coaching perspective. I dont find it unrealistic at all.

I always felt that the first woman in the NHL would be a goalie. Its not that women arent strong they're just not strong in the right ways for the NHL in its current iteration but they might be strong enough in other ways to have a shot.
