from the Grand Rapids Press,
The Grand Rapids Griffins have found their next leading man.
Curt Fraser will be introduced as the Griffins’ eighth coach in franchise history during a Wednesday morning news conference at Van Andel Arena.
Fraser, 50, was the first head coach in the history of the Atlanta Thrashers, who joined the NHL in 1999. He spent three and a half seasons there, compiling a 64-169-31-15 record before being fired in 2003.

It’s an attempt by the Hockey Gods to bring me back to Michigan.
And if you’re not buying that explanation, then I don’t know.

The University of Michigan raids West Virginia for their coaches and the Red Wings raid Atlanta. Why can’t Matt Millen sign Bill Belichick away from New England?
