Good call by the Aeros to get Constantine, of course anyone would

have been better than Rob Daum who was obviously overmatched

in his pro coaching debut producing the worst season in Aeros

franchise history in 06-07. With a new experienced coach

known for being a good teacher of the game and some excellent

young talent in the Wild organization, hopefully we can get back

to our winning ways and perhaps a realistic Calder Cup run.

Good move for the Aeros! 

Daum was the coach of the University of Alberta hockey team, and was great there.

Maybe he should stick to coaching college.

The U. of A. is one of the top colleges in Canada, with an outstanding hockey team.

I've been on their campus before and also seen the hockey rink that the Golden Bears and Pandas(women's team) play on.

You're right hockeyfan Daum was a good college coach,

didn't he win championships at UA? But after watching the

Aeros several times this past season it was obvious that

he may not have been ready for the pros. Hopefully he

can return to the college level and his winning ways.

Excited about Constantine coming in as coach, we needed

someone with some pro experience similar to Todd McClellan

who won us a cup in 03 and is now an assistant for the Red Wings.
