And now you have to have so much experience just to get an assistant coaching job in the East Coast Hockey League.
Like you got to have stuff on your resume.
And back then, I went down to Wheeling for a year.
The job opened up in Providence.
When I was in Wheeling, the year before, I played with Billy Armstrong, the GM of Utah.
And so he was my partner.
And I went to Wheeling to become the head coach.
He became the captain of the team.
And then one year later, I go back to be the coach, and I name him the assistant coach.
And we're both hired.
And we're in the middle of the season.
It was an unbelievable season.
We won 71 out of 99 games.
But at the beginning, I'm looking at him going, I can't believe that they let us do this.
I can't believe I'm the coach and you're the assistant coach.
This is crazy.
But it was an amazing year.
I mean, we won the cup.
We won 71 out of 99 games.
It was incredible.
