Will we ever see a Russian NHL head coach?

[Ghost of Murph]

Well, who would put an angry old dude from Nazi Germany on the Rangers bench back in 1940?

You can't be remotely serious. You answered my question with this tripe? Can't tell if you're trolling or not.

Assuming we are not meaning still with the accent.

Wayne's dad, Walter Gretzky, was a landowner in the Russian Empire. So he was successful and wealthy in Russia where being a landowner was very prestigious. Walter Gretzky - Wikipedia

He ran away to Canada right before the Russian revolution.

So Wayne Gretzky the former Phoenix Coyotes coach has thick Russian ancestry.

Thats incorrect. Walters dad owned the land; Walter was born in Canada.
