Not that they are the same obviously, just an interesting look at the story behind the coach I think.

Isn’t it interesting that he had: Luongo, Schneider, Lundqvist, Raanta, and Talbot?
Are both those teams able to draft these highly touted goalies that well or is he a good coach with a good system that helps goaltenders out? Chicken and egg kind of situation, but some food for thought.
