If I am Mitch Love I definitely don't want the HC job of this current team. The pressure will be huge with the mandate to win now with a veteran team, if he gets the job and it goes South that is a good way to sewer a very promising young coaching career. If he takes associate coach and it goes South then the team has to face a rebuild and that is the perfect scenario for a young coach like him to pilot. Could someone else poach him? Sure, but he would go anyhow if it is a young upcoming roster. Like if he gets offered head coach of the Flames or head coach of the Ducks that seems like an absolute no brainer to move on to Anaheim.
