    Strand can coach defense.

      He was a forward too, correct? Seems odd to me, but I don't know how other teams do it.

        I still think it is concerning not having either coach with Division 1 experience. You would think at least the top assistant would have that. They do have USHL experience, so that is better than the experience level of the last two assistants. I am open to Strand based on Chuck's enthusiasm for the kind of recruiter he can be.

        Stillwell speaks very highly of him in article on NBC 15. http://www.nbc15.com/sports/headline...305500621.html

          Bittner has D1 experience and Strand has coached at almost every level except D1, including professionals. I'm not concerned at all. Both have major USHL experience, know the recruiting landscape and are considered solid coaches.

            So I take it it's not Shuchuk?

              I'll guess Oz on Cap's new GM/coach. That would be a swift kick in the sack.

                  I'll toss out Steve Miller as my guess. I think the timeline of being there (but not really), then leaving for the east coast, and now coming back would raise a few eyebrows.

                    And the fact he would have been a great #1 assistant.

                      Oof, that'd be painful.

                        I do wonder what Steve Miller will be up to since he left Providence for "family reasons" to return to Denver (the city) about 10 days ago. He's said that he doesn't have any plans to take any job at this point.

                        Troy Ward is my eyebrow raiser.

                            Is assistant coach normally announced as associate head coach?

                              When you hire the person to be the associate head coach.

                                Just heard the Caps job is still being negotiated. Guess it's not quite a done deal yet. Probably why I was told not to go public with the names.
