Doug Sulliman is the new Asst coach for the Phoenix Coyotes, how is this guy?

Question

http://coyotes.nhl.com/team/app/?service=page&page=NewsPage&articleid=368188

The article said that Sulliman spent the last 15 years of his life working on Wall St and the insurance industry. WOW, lots of rust, don't you think??

Don Maloney says he's confident Sulliman will be able to quickly scrape the rust off his coaching skills.

Sulliman is expected to work on the fowards.

Thoughts??

Honestly, I never heard of this guy!!!!!

Answer 1

Considering that Sulliman is Maloney's brother in law, this doesn't sit very well with me.  I'm not sure insurance industry experince is the missing piece of the puzzle needed to take the Coyotes to the next level.

On the plus side, maybe he can get me a deal on a new home owners policy.

I thought we'd gotten past the era of nepotism on the Coyotes.

Answer 2

Doug Sulliman...havent heard that name in years....He was a good 2 way player in his day....

Did you say Don Maloney???? Holy c**p.....

Answer 3

As a long time Ranger fan I think Doug "Sully" Sulliman is perfect for that role. Wayne is a very emotional coach and can be a bit of a rollercoaster... Sully brings a level headed approach and can help smooth the ride. In my opinion, it's like riding a bike, he'll be back into it in no time flat. Go Doug!
