from Bruce Dowbiggin of the Globe and Mail, Somehow it doesn?t seem like a hockey season without Pierre McGuire. McGuire is alive and thriving on NBC and Versus, of course, but the man who made ?active sticks? a household phrase is seldom heard in Canada these days on TV. How you feel about that can range from nostalgia to relief, but there?s little doubt McGuire, a former coach in Hartford and Pittsburgh, changed the role of analyst from his perch between the benches.
McGuire tirelessly explored the coaching strategy, relayed by-play between benches from his spot at ice level, and soldiered on against some of the hammerhead tendencies in the game.
