Stevens would be useless in the modern day NHL, but they do miss Niedermayer. Ted Nolan is blacklisted forever. He's a great coach though, it's unfortunate, but the old boys club runs shit. And if the Panthers accepted Brodeur and White for Luongo and Bouwmeester, I'd pee myself, b/c that would be the most hilarious thing Rick Dudley or whoever is Florida GM these days ever did.

Nolan turned down chances to get back into the NHL as an assistant coach. Had he taken one of those jobs, he would be a head coach by now. He held out for a head coaching job and did not keep current with player movement and free agency, so he did not interview well at all.

He's coaching a major junior team in Quebec. He is getting his foot back in the door. Did you ever hear the story why he was let go from Buffalo? I'll let others tell it.

There are a bunch of variations but it all comes down to the fact he refused a one year extension and demanded a multi-year deal from the new GM.

No, that must be the sanitized version. The real story has nothing to do with contracts, more like contact.

That problem was part of the reason for the minimal contract offer, most of us are familiar with the other story. They offered to bring him back but he was pissed about the "lack of respect" from the club. He was a very arrogant man when he was coaching in Buffalo.

They have cups, you guys have...?  I hope Ftorek isn't coming back.

4 is more then 3 GRG

How many years longer have they been around? That has to be the least amount of the original 6 teams, except maybe the 'Hawks. Good argument.

Al we can say is it's a hell of a long time ago...........HELL of a long time ago.....
