One Man For The Job

from Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail,

...this is one time when the obvious choice for someone to run the ship is also the right one — Scotty Bowman, who briefly flirted with the Leafs in August, but Monday retreated from remarks he made on Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday and reiterated that his commitment is to the Detroit Red Wings, where he is a senior consultant.

Well, okay.

To think that Bowman would jump ship in midseason was a mostly irrational hope anyway. The time to woo him again is this summer, after the current season ends and the business of hockey takes centre stage.

I don’t get it.  He’s 75.  The rebuilding of the Leafs is going to take a few years.

Let’s be realistic.

(...and of course that doesn’t mean it won’t happen)

I don’t get it.  He’s 75, and he’s an integral part of a winning team.  Why leave?
