Message: [QUOTE="Tobias Funke, post: 1267624, member: 850"] If Doug plans on retiring soon this was the right play. Get your 4 million in your pocket, find some potential stability and stay for a few years with less pressure. We all know that he doesn't intend on retiring, and he played a game and it really didn't work in his favor. The $4million guarantee is great, but if he fails to ever get a HC job again, and has done irreparable damage to his reputation it will take all of 2 years for the difference in salary to net negative. Funny how a change in the wind can change someones fortunes. If he landed a HC job this year it would have been a very savvy move. Now he is at the Assistant HC for a horrible franchise. [/QUOTE]
