Sekeres & Price Show · Jeff Paterson: Adding staff, but not adding experience. Can the new crew handle this rebuild? · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

In a couple of years, they can do an overhaul and find some different bodies and some different voices.

Right.

And I think there's a couple of things that jump to mind here.

One is, and again, Ryan Mouginelle, to me, is a name only comes from Providence.

We said AHL coach of the year.

So, you know, there is some accomplishment there.

But I think back to like once upon a time, Manning Mel Holder had no coaching experience.

And really in the blink of an eye, look at what he has done, has shot up the ranks, he's made the most of his opportunities, started as an eye in the sky under Travis Green, wanted a bench role, it wasn't there for him in Vancouver, goes to Toronto, then elects to step back, takes the job in Abbotsford, and now he's an NHL head coach.

can be done.

I mean, a lot of it is on the individuals here to make the most of their opportunities.

You know, I'm not surprised that Manny got to bring one of his bench assistants from Abbotsford.

I mean, that's just kind of the way hockey works.

And so I don't know if that was a difficult decision for him, one or the other, because Harry Mahesh is the other assistant that was

there through the Calder Cup run.

But Jordan Smith is a guy that has other AHL experience before he arrived out in the Fraser Valley.

And now he's been promoted to the National Hockey League as well.

So, you know, can one of these guys sort of follow in the footsteps of Manny Malhotra while starting under Manny?

Only time will tell there, but Manning's, I think, a really good indication of a guy that saw an opportunity, recognized what he wanted to do.

He saw the path forward, and he has followed it perfectly to arrive at a National Hockey League head coaching job.

There are only 32 of those for the time being until Austin or Houston or whatever else joins the league.
