Apparently Vigneault has hired Rick Bowness as an assistant coach. Bowness was most recently an assistant in Phoenix , but did not get his contract renewed when Wayne hired another on of his pals Ulf Samuelson as an assistant.

Bowness is known to be a take no shit , pretty tough on the boys type of guy.

This was certainly expected. It appears Ian Clarke is not only staying on, but will have his position raised to full time goalie COACH rather than consultant.

Curious as to who the other Ass. Coach will be.

Rick Bowness was all but hired over a week ago. it was just finalizing the contract. I haven't seen the official announcement yet either but I am pretty sure it is a done deal.
I too am waiting to see who the other assistant is.

Definately lots of experience with Bowness but not alot of success. I like the tough on the boys tho.

Does this mean that Luongo didn't demand that his coach was brought in for us like he did in Florida.

Ian Clarke was one of his first goalie coaches. They have a good relationship

Bowness could be just what the boys need; however, the ones that didnt work hard were the ones who have already been shipped out.
