Unsatisfied
That’s because Quinn really doesn’t want the job, so he’s actually negotiating for a bigger deal, even though he’s done nothing to deserve it.

Staten Island? Never even been there. Is it nice? I am honored that you think I am talented though. Thanks!
On a serious note: Tooting your own horn on a forum you've been a part of for not even 2 months isn't really the best way to make a name for yourself. You did the same with Kotkaniemi a few weeks ago. It's going to provoke responses like the one you are commenting on now. And the fact that you actually go into detail about it to a degree where you ask about the 2 people who liked that comment... Wow. Just, wow. You seem very easily triggered by people who disagree with you or call you out on something. Not everything is a personal attack. Maybe take the more light-hearted approach. Nobody is here to cause a fight. Nobody is here to get into arguments that eventually will resort to name-calling. I understand the response to your earlier post by Swayze though.
Anyway, that's my serious response to this. Oh, and since you asked:
- Born and raised in The Hague, in the Netherlands
- Lived in Johannesburg, South Africa for 5 years
- Moved to Vienna, Austria last summer
- I've been supporting the Rangers since 1991. My favorite players growing up were Joey Kocur, Petr Nedved and Alexander Karpovtsev
I am a sarcastic ******* sometimes. It's nothing personal
PMd you back. We’re good.

Mr. Preachy
I wouldn't be surprised if they wait to make an official announcement for the late morning/early afternoon.
Why make it now?

If it goes another 24 hours, I would be surprised. Could BU make an 11th hour push to retain him? Cold feet? It’s not done until it’s done.

For some reason I expect the announcement today. No game tonight so a decent amount of the conversation and hockey air time would be about it. Could be wrong but the rangers public announcement to blow up the team dominated the news even outside of ranger sources for like 2 days. A new coach wont get the same conversation because its not effecting the rest of the league but i imagine they want people talking about it for a bit.

Mr. Preachy
Based on other coaches' salaries that we know, he's not even making $500K at BU. Not that they'd have to match the Rangers offer financially because Quinn was obviously very happy there, but they'd probably have to make a pretty massive increase to his base pay. Even if he was making $500K at BU, he's now making $2 MILLION more than that per year once he becomes official. Seems unlikely.
EDIT: Just as a point of reference on salaries, here's this. It's old and obviously the numbers will have gone up, but it at least gives you an idea. Big-time DI hockey coaches still aren't remotely close to big-time basketball or football coaches, just because of the revenue the sports drive.
Alaska Anchorage — Dave Shyiak, $110,000 in 2009-10, contract through 2011-12

Gorton’s also involved in USA hockey now, can’t remember the timeline but anyone think Gorton had anything to do with Quinn getting the WJC job in the first place?

Rebuilding.
Yea ONLY 200-400K. Poor broke bastard.
Haha. I am leaking jealousy all over this forum right now.
I go starry eyed thinking about making that much. So much spare cash to invest. (God I am such a nerd).
My financial wet dream is to have an extra 50,000 to invest each year. I froth at the mouth thinking about what I could turn that into. Instead I've got an extra 2-3k to invest. (Not counting pension). One car issue or house issue and bye bye to most of that extra investment cash.
Aside from the fact that I constantly reveal I'm a total prick, this is the most personally revealing post I've ever made here. Y'all happy, we grew closer?

I doubt he's gonna be here for the full five years to be honest. That may not be a bad thing though
