Vanvouver Canucks coaching situation

Today, I'm going to way in on the situation with the Vancover Canucks.

First off, Vancouver fired Head Coah Marc Crawford yesterday as the probable first wave of changes to the Canucks before next season begins. Here is the full article. This is probably the first of several changes upcoming season. The Canucks, although I love them, were serious underachievers this year and the first head on the chopping block is always the head coach. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the firing of Crawford, but something had to happen to improve the team, and this is probably the most likely place. Hopefully a new coach can breathe new life into the franchise. Here are my suggstions for the new coach in no particular order.
Brent Sutter, head coach of the Red Deer Rebels of the Western Hockey League. If you need any other reason besides his last name, just find out what he's done with Red Deer and the Canada World Junior Teams. Info can be found here.

My second suggestion, as many of you who know me might guess, is a former coach of the Kelown Rockets, Marc Habscheid, you can check some info about him here.
Habscheid is currently with Hockey Canada, but if you can talk him into leaving there he would be a great coach as he led Kelowna to the Memorial Cup in 2004. Sorry, I wasn't able to find a picture for Habscheid

My final suggestion is a Kevin Constantine. He definately has the edge with NHL experience with time spent in Pittsburg and San Jose. He is currently the coach with the Everett Silvertips in the Western Hockey League. Another excellent coach who you can learn more about here.

What do all three of these coaches have in common besides a connection to the Western Hockey League? A strong committment to a definsive style of hockey, espeicially the last town mentioned. The Canucks need some help defensively, and they also need a disciplinarian with some fire. All three of these coaches can provide that. Until a coach is named I will personally be pushing for Constantine.
