He mentioned work with the league, work with PA.

It's okay to have failed in previous roles.
It's okay to have not had success, especially as you're going through.
And you learn from mistakes.
And every single person who's worked as an executive and as a coach has had some failures along the way.
It's about how you learn from them.
And so I'm not sitting here and saying, oh, if Kevin Adams was named part of the new management team, that they're doomed to fail.
I would just hope that he would learn from his mistakes.
And would you be a better candidate moving forward?
That might be sometimes too idealistic of looking at it because the assumption that people admit that they made mistakes is the assumption that they're willing to be introspective enough to own what they did wrong and get better for it.
And that's something we can never answer because we're not in somebody's mind.
But in general, I'm not against giving somebody another chance in something, especially if somebody is like, you can actually get better at like Bruce Cassidy, for instance.
Sure.
So his first coaching job, bit of a disaster.
And then obviously he got fired, but he ends up winning a Stanley Cup.
So there are ways for you to learn and get better at it.
