hellaavangard 33 Report post Posted January 10, 2009 Poor guy, he comes to a foreign continent, is coaching a foreign style of hockey, in a new league, and then has to deal with a rising young star dying at the end of a game. The shots of him with tears running down his cheeks at Cherepanov's funeral was such a heavy thing to see. So much to deal with in a short time while being expected to be coaching a heartbroken team to the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
