Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol I: Dawn of the Fifth Age of UW Hockey!
- Would feel like a name hire designed to make a splash with little substance behind it.
- I find it hard to believe that Chelios would be interested in dropping roots here for long, so would be a stepping stone for him, potentially leaving us to look for a replacement in a few years.
- Comparatively limited experience compared to the others on many of our wish lists.
- That time he was golfing Pleasant View (early 90s) in the group ahead of us and was plastered.
I don't believe that any kid or family advisor or parent is going to send their kid to Wisconsin because Chelios is the coach.
He's one of my all time favorite players and I even have a Hawks #7 jersey from way back when, but I want a coach who is qualified and wants to build a legacy here. Chelios, in my mind, is neither of those things.
