Oh hell no- you might as well say Ron Wilson to me. I want a fresh face behind the bench. A Jon Cooper type. I don't want any recycled old school coaches. I heard a lot about Travis Green and how he is an up an comer. I would welcome that so that the coach can grow with the team. Fresh ideas.
Geoff Ward in Jersey was a PP and special teams guy who took a band of misfits in Jersey and had them have one of the better power plays in the NHL.
A combination of the two meaning Green as coach and Ward as Asst would be intriguing to me. Both are considered up and coming. If one fails, you got the other just in case.
