Thinking of Alumni that fit the preferred?

Commie....social media monitoring?...out.

Tippett?

Nick Fuher?

John Marks....would really doubt this one.

Hrkac? ?????

Rick Wilson?? probably doesn't want to leave the MN wild but just a thought

James Patrick ???

I'm thinking the same. 

 

Doesn't appear to have 12 years coaching experience yet (which seems like a pretty ridiculous minimum qualification).

Not that I've seen many of these assistant coach job descriptions but i've seen a few job descriptions in my day. This seems to me to have someone's name written on it, if we could just decipher the code

Much like the Brad Berry hire when Hakstol replaced Eades with Berry, this job posting looks like it was written specifically for someone that the coaching staff has in mind.

Beat me to it.  My thoughts exactly.

I don't know what kind of NCAA experience gfhockey has, but he wants a Natty real bad. 

 

I thought gfhockey said that Pierre Paul Lamoureux was going to get this job?

How many of the requirements does he meet?  ;)

Yet another gfhockey and gobc fail.  They're starting to really mount lately.

Completely agree.  They know who they want, and this position is already filled.  They just need to go through the motions with this to be compliant.

Well, I fully intend to submit my application as I have coach/played for a variety of teams dating back to NHL93 on Super Nintendo. I also have more Stanley Cups than anyone in the market, consistently winning more than 1 cup in any given calendar year. Name any current coach who can claim that.

 

I would also like to point out the my stretch of playing C-team youth hockey between squirts and bantams (C stand for Cup, of which I have many; again, see above).

 

In addition to extensive NHL experience, I have also watched the movie Miracle and know that the name on the front of your jersey (hopefully just North Dakota) is more important than the one on your back. (Unless we had landed Auston Matthew, in which case everyone just get him the puck)

 

I've wanted to get into the NCAA for a long time, but until EA Sports gets their S%!# together and makes a game, this is looking like my opportunity.
