He's had up and down seasons elsewhere was he just brutal on his players?
He didn't have any tactics at all, he was your run of the mill go out there and outwork the other team coach. He also has a tendency to make things personal with his players and I have heard he has had multiple issues with that in his other coaching stints in the minors, probably the main reason he has never had another shot at working in the NHL.
