He said the draft started in 63', if that's the case, then that rules out any expansion franchises in the early 70s, mid 80s at the earliest.

Ok let's try this again, Jacques Lemaire? He played his whole career with Montreal. He coached the expansion team the Minnesota Wild. I know he won 1 stanley cup a a coach in NJ. I wouldn't doubt it with NJ's talent back than & Lemaire as coach that together they could reach the finals 3 times.

Yes I'm going to say Jacques Lemaire, & that Regis is my FINAL answer.

3. I began my NHL coaching career with an expansion team in their inaugural season.


Probably some assistant noone cared about on Minnesota or one of the late 80s to late 90s expansion teams.

Alain Vigneault?

1. I was an NHL draft pick.

Eighth round by St. Louis

2. I played my entire NHL career with a single team.

Played a handful of games with the Blues

3. I began my NHL coaching career with an expansion team in their inaugural season.

Assistant coach for Ottawa in their 1993-94 season.

4. I am a two time coach of the year.

Jack Adams Trophy 2007, Brian Kilrea Coach of the Year Award in 1988 with the Olympiques

5. In my coaching career I was in three finals, winning one.

Lost in SCF to Bruins, won the Presidents cup with the Hull Olympiques, lost in QMJHL finals with the Beauport Harfangs

If this isn't right, you took off a valuable half-and-hour that could've been applied to my homework.

I was really bullpoopting. Just looking at names of coaches and clicking away. I went from Laviolette to Maurice to Bowman. Eventually I said, okay look at JA awards winners and CHL coach of the year award winners. Then I filled it in from there, and I kind of knew it had to be a recent expansion plus I would find a dead end looking at expansion head coaches. It's clear the way he worded it he wanted to trick you into thinking HC.

I thought it was Cladue Noel, but checked that he was never drafted, and he was an assistant in Columbus later on, not when they entered the league.

Only played with the capitals for 7 games, but won the ECHL and AHL coach of the years, won the Calder, lost it twice

I gave up after that

Nah, I never try and trick anyone into thinking anything! I throw something out there and wait to see what people ASSUME about it. That's how us psych folks roll...
