Well that is what I asked. If you believe this team doesn't handle pressure well, wouldn't that be important in the next coach?

Will these NHL players be emboldened by junior hockey success? I guess the world championship was with NHL players but then many people seem to dismiss that tournament.

Or is it the message and approach that's important?

It's not just about hiring the best coach necessarily, but the best coach for this team.
