Haha. Feels like I accidentally swatted a hornets nest or something.
Anyways, this probably isn't the place to have this discussion as I don't think anyone will care about Clouston here except you and me, but his record speaks for itself. You don't consistently ice winning teams in a cyclical league like the CHL without knowing a little bit about what you're doing.
