Former Grand Rapids Griffins coach Todd Nelson gave two radio interviews on Thursday afternoon, speaking with ESPN 96.1 FM’s “Big Drew & Jim“…
And TSN 1260 Edmonton’s Jason Gregor spoke with Nelson and TSN’s Ryan Rishaug, with Nelson appearing at the 20-minute mark of Gregor’s show:
So Nelson according to the first interview Nelson chose the position that will make his resume look better: being part of an NHL team that has a good chance of making a deep run into the playoffs. Smart choice.
Sounding more and more like this was Nelson’s decision and not the org’s decision to cut him loose.
