Jasper84 333 Report post Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) :thumbup: I hope he gets a defensive coaching job instead of Stevie's old job, if any of this is true. Regardless, I'd love for him to be anywhere in the organization. Edited June 15, 2010 by Jasper84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irishtemper14+25 11 Report post Posted June 15, 2010 no matter how good he was when he wore the #7, he played longer here and will always be a wing in my heart....atta boy cheli!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted June 15, 2010 As others have said, I would much rather see him in a coaching role, with his demeanor, hockey sense and just overall teaching ability, it only makes sense for him to be a coach, however, I would rather him here in some other capacity, than a coach somewhere else... he really became a Wing here and needs to stay with the organization...

blgillett 48 Report post Posted June 21, 2010 I feel exactly the same way love him as a Wing did not like the player on other teams but he was with the wings long enough to consider him a Red Wing and would be a great addition to the office or as a coach! that would just be fantastic. i have always loved cheli with the wings.

MCleveland89 122 Report post Posted June 21, 2010 Anyone who threatens Bettman is a friend of mine He seems like a good canidate for an assistant coaching job instead of a front office job, but what do I know. I can't see him as a front office person. It just doesn't fit. He needs to be on the bench screaming at refs when they make bad calls. And coaching or something. 1 Majsheppard reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jibbajaba 14 Report post Posted June 29, 2010 I can't see him as a front office person. It just doesn't fit. He needs to be on the bench screaming at refs when they make bad calls. And coaching or something. This. And I agree that Chelios is a Wing for life now. Glad to hear that he may be staying with the organization. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted July 20, 2010 I'd love to see Chelly as the Wings' defensive coach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted July 20, 2010 I'd love to see Chelly as the Wings' defensive coach. Same here, but they would probably want him to come in as some other capacity and maybe eventually take that role (even though I think he's one of the few that could step right in and do the job, with none or very minimal seasoning) - with that said, I think he's going to end up essentially taking the scouting position that Pat Verbeek vacated to go to TB when all is said and done...
