Todd Nelson has established himself as a top head coach in AHL history over the past three years with the Hershey Bears. While he has garnered attention for NHL coaching positions, including potential interest from teams like the Vancouver Canucks, the role ultimately went to someone else. With openings still available in several NHL teams, Nelson reflects on his uncertain future, admitting he's focused on exit meetings rather than job inquiries. His impressive record in the AHL includes 450 regular-season wins and three Calder Cup championships, highlighting the mystery of his absence in the NHL coaching sphere.
"There's a lot of turnover in this league, so it can be tough sometimes to find a gig at the NHL level if you don't have proper representation."
"As of right now, I'm head coach of the Hershey Bears, but I haven't heard anything about potential jobs yet."
