Not saying yay or nay on Timmy, but just curious if anyone has any actual info on his coaching career beyond what one can glean off of wikipedia.
Yeah, Moose Jaw seems to be his only head coaching experience with lots of NHL assistant experience. I haven't seen anything pro or con about him but like you I find him interesting.

What I think is Treliving wants a certain style to be played and will look for a coach that fits that style or at least gets on board. Hartley didn't fit and so was on a short leash.
