You were expecting Scotty Bowman? Perhaps Mike Babcock? Randy Carlyle? Or maybe Scott Arniel has done as much as he can with the Moose - I'm sure he'd be interested in coaching in Selkirk.
Criticizing Kenny for coaching candidates is ridiculous. Lowen got put in a sh!tty situation when Bender quit. Kenny stepped up as assistant because no one wanted the fcuking job. Hiring Cassidy was risky, but an Anavet cup and three straight years of 45+ wins isn't bad. Ryan Smith struggled with a sh!tty team last year after everyone bailed on the team, including Lowen and Leach. It'll be interesting to see how the team looks this season with him at the helm.
Put yourself in Kenny's shoes and figure out how many qualified coaches there are out there looking for jobs.
