At least everyone will be good at faceoffs
He sure provides a great work ethic. Might be just what they need.

At least everyone will be good at faceoffs
this draft pick will move the needle more than Brind'Amour will as coach in terms of this teams upside.

Since he's the pre-existing assistant coach, shouldn't they already be good at face offs?

Robinson and Lemaire are the only two "star players" that I can think of who had significant success as coach. Roy and Carbonneau won coach of the year but they were fired soon after.
Many good coaches were good players like Ruff, Sullivan, but not stars. I think Gallant is in that category.
Many have been good asssistant coaches like Tockett and Muller and others but they did not suceed that good overall.

I'm thinking an NHL ex-Star just can't coach well because they did things so naturally and wanted freedom when playing they can't really wrap their head around structure? Or is it most stars were like robots vocally (Think Gretzky, Crosby, McDavid) and just speak softly so they can't command respect of a room when they aren't playing?
What was Rod's responsibilities as the Assistant Coach? Was he PK, PP, or what?

did the canes interview anyone else from outside the org. ?
Probably too expensive to do that. I guess they just added more responsibility to Rod without a salary bump.
They also gave the GM job to their president so that they don't need to pay two salaries.
I'm guessing they'll soon fire their assistant coaches and scouts to save more money.
