    Really interesting story that tells Jason’s history in hockey as both a player and a coach. So often players are asked to play a style game that they’d never really imagined in order to stay employed. Like a lot of enforcers, there’s way more than meets the eye, and it seems like he’s really succeeding as a HC. Regardless of whether he makes it to the NHL as a coach, this guy’s life would make a great memoir.
