To what NHL Championship?
I agree, he's a good coach. I also thought Hitch, McLelland and Krueger were too and likely still would be. There's just not a team in front of him that's going to win anything just like there wasn't in Arizona. And Edmonton being Edmonton, they'll be running him out of town in 3 years not looking to re-sign him regardless of how much his bunch of losers over-achieve.
