Wings_Dynasty 267 Report post Posted February 17, 2011 Guess i'm not a xenophobe....I don't get the French-Canadian coach thing... Not really about xenophobia. More about how there are no successful ones. I've never been called a xenophobe, but the truth is I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and all the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called 'patriotism'. 4 Lovin Jiri Fischer, 55fan, #19=Legend and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted February 17, 2011 French Canadian coach. I wouldn't have a problem with it. There are plenty of good French Canadian coaches, contrary to what the OP thinks. Just look at Guy Boucher in Tampa right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smite 399 Report post Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) I was young, but I never disliked French Canadian coach Jacques Demers. He did win 2 jack adams awards and started the winning ways in hockeytown. Babs went to McGill in Montreal... food for thought. Edit: I see Bryan Murray and Scotty Bowman were born in Quebec as well Edited February 17, 2011 by Smite Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I honestly just feel that America is the best country and all the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called 'patriotism'. That's not patriotism. That's called "American Exceptionalism" and it's dangerous. It's the idea that we're perfect, every other country is s***, and thus we do no wrong and only do right. We all know that's a crock of horsepuckey. People that think this way scare the living daylights out of me. Moving on to the topic of the thread, I'd rather Nick retire. 1 asoras reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
