Claude Balls Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 Seeing how they didn't immediately name Paetsch or Prospal the next Amerks coach....yet, I wonder if there are any names people would think of. I can think of a few, but the only problem is, how many want to actually become a head coach. Local boys, Ryan Callahan or Brian Gionta. Would Mike Peca leave the Rangers to take an AHL head coaching job? (I highly doubt it). What's Jim Hofford up to these days? He was selling insurance last I knew. Marty Biron? Andrew Peters would be fun. He would at least leave the bench and get into a fight. Just throwing darts. And I'm sure someone I've never heard of will come in.

Petey with Craig Rivet as his assistant. Imagine the entertainment value of those two arguing behind the bench during games.

MattPie Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 After a long and detailed search, speaking to dozens of people, we were shocked to find the perfect match in our own org. We're upgrading Joe Amerkski from skate sharpening senior tech to be the 38th Amerks Head Coach. He'll assemble his staff (from other people in the org) shortly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
