I am not saying he would oblige or that he can get hired, but I think with some of the coaches that have been known to be hard asses like Hartley, Sutter, Babcock etc there is a notion that they aren't able to change. If ownership who signs the chq's says this is the way it is, than that is what is expected.

Its not the 90s conduct you've got to worry about!
He has marinated in Latvia and is currently plying his trade and honing his craft learning from the Russians.
90s tactics from a Francophone is strictly amateur hour and should be the least of anyone's concerns at this point, he's probably buried bodies since then and learned of various alternative uses for jumper cables.
"Hey Bob...why do you carry a spare car battery in your trunk? Is it because Russia is so cold?"
Sure...thats why...
