BUT HOW MANY CHAMPIONSHIPS

Nice article and there's a section that does sound a little Chippy:

“Some people think that because he’s a stay-at-home defenseman, because he played a defensive style and because he’s a close-to-the-vest person that he coaches that way,” Jackson said. “But he doesn’t. He will look at anything. He challenges us as a staff. He doesn’t just want to hear what you think he wants to hear. He wants to hear what you really think, even if it’s different than him.

“He doesn’t just want cookie-cutter stuff. He wants to delve into things. He doesn’t want to keep things a certain way just because that’s the way they’ve always been. He looks into a lot of different things to figure out ways to improve our team.”

This guy seems pretty intense. Wonder how quickly he'd wear on the vets.

Oshie would be a match made in heaven especially if the OT rules stay the same.

Hex says Hak has all the qualities he was looking for in a coach other than NHL experience, and that's no different than a rookie player learning on the job

He had the top goalie in the nation last year, Zane McIntyre. The Bruins haven't signed him yet because they have no GM. Wonder if Hax and Hex can convince him to sign here instead...

High praise for the hiring from an enemy (Zajac)

This was out of left field... Might help with the development of the young dmen. Could also be payback for giving his son a scholarship. Jk
