Why do you say that?Couldn't have happened to a better team.
I agree...I understand heat of the moment stuff but there are still some things that go so far over the line that they can't be excused...this is one of them. Quite frankly i wouldn't upset or surprised if he were fired.Should be suspended from non-game day practices too. A suspension is a suspension.
It's the 21st century - these guys should have crawled out from under their bridges by now and seen how people live in the real world.
I agree. In today's day and age it should be a firing offence.Quite frankly i wouldn't upset or surprised if he were fired.
No chance he gets firedWhy do you say that?

Claims he didn't
This unfortunately is likely correct.No chance he gets fired
Wolves all time leading points for a D-man, teammate and friend of GM and I'm sure there has to be a connection with the Owner
Does anyone know what he actually said ?
So you've walked up to him and told him to his face that he's not a good person and not a good coach? Or did you yell it from the stands? The first one shows guts etc...the second one...yeah you know...This unfortunately is likely correct.
The guy is not a good person or coach actually, I've told him as much directly.
It was face to face after a minor hockey game.So you've walked up to him and told him to his face that he's not a good person and not a good coach? Or did you yell it from the stands? The first one shows guts etc...the second one...yeah you know...
At a MINOR hockey game...as in a Chicago Wolves game? Or some kids game that he was at? Or was it in some town besides Chicago? So many questions...It was face to face after a minor hockey game.
btw I don't think it took a lot of guts. What's he gonna do, take a swing at me? I wasn't worried if he did.
A Chicago area Midget game where was coachingAt a MINOR hockey game...as in a Chicago Wolves game? Or some kids game that he was at? Or was it in some town besides Chicago? So many questions...
Didn't know he had time to moonlight as a midget coach. Would think that he has plenty to do with the Wolves during the season to not have to go out seeking more to do.A Chicago area Midget game where was coaching
Last reply, seems to be you're trolling but w/e, You think it might have been years ago? Maybe?Didn't know he had time to moonlight as a midget coach. Would think that he has plenty to do with the Wolves during the season to not have to go out seeking more to do.
No trolling at all...legitimate question/statement. if it were years ago as you now imply...i really don't see what it has to do with the current topic at hand. his ability or your opinion lack of to coach little kids isn't a barometer to his ability to coach professional players as we all know little kids have the attention span of a knat. Almost sounds like a disgruntled parent who's kid wasn't any good and wanted to blame the coach for his kids shortcomings because my kids the next Gretz so it has to be the coach.Last reply, seems to be you're trolling but w/e, You think it might have been years ago?

First off, Midgets are not little kids, they are often a step away from Juniors..i really don't see what it has to do with the current topic at hand. his ability or your opinion lack of to coach little kids isn't a barometer to his ability to coach professional players as we all know little kids have the attention span of a knat.
There are just so many things wrong here...Having a hard time following what is happening...best as I can see you are using something that you allege happened close to 20 years ago as some sort of validation of something that allegedly happened a few days ago. And further try to validate it by telling everybody on here about how you straightened him out and told him just what a lousy coach he was...and yet according to this post you didn't have a dog in the fight because you said he was the opposing coach. So right away this BEGS the question...What did you care? Were you the coach he was coaching against? Was your kid on the team playing his? And even if the answer is yes to either....again What did you care? Pretty much his coaching ability was really none of your business. And again really has not 1 thing to do with the topic at hand....all you bringing any of this up does is reak of someone looking to be important and validate some ancient grievance you think you had.First off, Midgets are not little kids, they are often a step away from Juniors.
Second, if you think a man in his late 30's at the time is going to change his stripes, well good luck to you.
Do you know the man or are you just one of the balcony crazies in Rosemont?
(btw, he was the opposing coach)

What is a balcony crazy in rosemont...not familiar with that term.
As far as any relationship with him...No I don't know him personally...does he know me...yes...are we friends....no can't say that we are...but again don't see the relevance with regards to your attention seeking claim of how you told him off almost 20 years ago and how that has anything to do with anything
He didn't start coaching in 2013. Maybe that was when he was at Mission, but trust me he was coaching before that.after some internet research ....
He hass 2 sons.
1st - 1996 born currently playing in Sweden
2nd - a 1999 born currently playing in East Coast league
He was coaching midgets from 2013- 2016 for Chicago Mission
So to say you confronted him 20 years ago is utter Bull Crap
Not sure why you quoted my post on this but I get it.after some internet research ....

Only Coached midgets at Chicago MissionHere you go Mickey Mouse
“My path was paved by the structure of Illinois hockey, AHAUS, as it was called,” before being renamed AHAI, Nardella said. “I started playing house league, then A, AA and AAA, juniors, and eventually college and pros. I had almost the same path in coaching, having started coaching house league hockey in Franklin Park, then to Glenview, Team Illinois and the Chicago Mission.”
