He hasn't been a head coach in the AHL or NHL though.
Brad Larsen from Columbus?
He was an assistant in Springfield and then was promoted to head coach for two seasons before being promoted to Columbus as an assistant.
Rick Kowalsky from New Jersey?
He's been an assistant for the Devils for two years and was the head coach of their AHL team for 8 years, including a year he won AHL coach of the year.
