I can't be a hypocrite as a coach because as a player that's what I wanted. I wanted feedback, I wanted communication from the boss. I showed up for work, you can yell at me if you want, but I want input. So that's the kind of coach I want to be.

Adam OatesI grew up trying to play for the Toronto Maple Leafs, not Team Canada. Didn't even know it existed.
