NHL Coach/GM/Executive/Broadcaster and now Author Doug MacLean introduces his new book DRAFT DAY: How Hockey Teams Pick Winners or Get Left Behind and shares stories from a lifetime in hockey including his first pro head coaching job with the Baltimore Skipjacks, his first NHL head coaching job with the Florida Panthers, starting the Columbus Blue Jackets from scratch, why you need at least 10 of your own draft picks on the team to win a Stanley Cup, and the difficulties of the ‘GM Conundrum.’
And of course Doug has great stories about Bob McCown [‘two verbal brawls...they were VICIOUS!’], Scott Morrison [‘he made this book happen!’], Jim Balsillie [‘getting into the NHL will be tough? Don’t tell ME what’s tough!’], Nick Kypreos [‘he got me into broadcasting!’], Kenny Albert [‘I hired him first and gave him his start!’], the relationship status of Ron MacLean & Don Cherry [‘I hope they can be buddies again, but it will never be the same’], John Shannon, Nelson Millman, Brian Wood, Gino Cavallini, and his parents Jim & Fran!
