08:23 AM ET 05.24 | For his part, Brent Sutter says he'd now coach anywhere "if it is the right situation," but many wonder if he'll wind up finding another NHL job in Alberta. While his time in Helsinki was widely seen as an audition for the now-vacant Oilers job, Sutter insists he never spoke to Team Canada GM/Oilers boss Kevin Lowe about the possibility while overseas. Nor has he since. That said, it's a conversation he'd be happy to have as the Oilers gig has to be seen as one of the most exciting coaching opportunities in the loop. "Would it be intriguing? Sure it would be," said Sutter, who is clearly on the Oilers' radar. "No question, it's a tremendous young team with a great amount of young talent. It just needs to grow and flourish along the way."

Not necessarily the team or the players though.
He meant the landscape, the sweeping views...the smell of horse droppings...oh wait, that was the team again.....

I call hogwash, no one can understand what the mumbler says.

And now all of a sudden he won't be homesick if he isn't by his family. Interesting.

If he starts quoting Chaucer's Canterbury Tales I hope it's the Miller's Tale. It had the most puns.

And so it was that later
as The Miller told his tale
that her face at first just ghostly
turned a whiter shade of pale

That song was the reason i read that book (I was like13)
