I'm still sad that he left, but obviously I can only form an opinion on what I see on the ice.
Todd mentioned in the interview when he was announced that he's basically recruiting a new best friend as well as a coach, as he will be spending more time with this person than anyone else. He got on very well with Lord and that obviously worked. Maybe it was a clash of personalities this time? Who knows.
But I think after reading that it's likely the new coach will be someone who Todd already knows personally, and so the big worldwide search and extensive interview process won't be needed. Just a hunch that someone will be announced pretty soon after play offs.
