Why not Groulx? Over-qualified?

I think this is Brad Lauer's replacement, a non-bench coach.

He's been really good for the Syracuse Crunch as a player development type coach then an assistant coach so yeah, it's most likely that he's Lauer's replacement. He actually played for the Lightning as a forward a while ago. We'll see where Yzerman fits him into the coaching staff.

You might want to stop checking these boards come playoff time. There's a lot of blame to go around, usually.

[Stive Morgan]

Cool! Always liked him on Montreal. I think he'd be a great assistant coach.

 

[ALLCAPSALLTHETIME]

Always liked him as a Cap. Hard working player who always gave his all. Congrats to him on his new job.
