Is maybe Velucci responsible for PP now?
Did we even have someone responsible for the PP before?

So, if you are wondering what 'Disco' Dan Bylsma is up to to these days, well, he is the Head Coach of the Coachella Valley Firebirds. Coachella Valley is the AHL affiliate of the Seattle Kracken, and are in the Calder Cup Finals against the Hersey Bears, AHL affiliate of the NHL Capitals.

Coachella Valley Firebirds play in Thousand Palms, close to Palm Springs. Nice, new arena in the desert. 109 outside, cold inside.

Totally pulling for the Firebirds to win.

Just curious if NHL teams have scouts at this level of hockey play?

I don't think many people here were wondering since he was hired as the next head coach of the Kraken last month... :P

Disco Dan didn't coach Coachella Valley Firebirds to victory tonight. He is sporting a new shaved head and the team looks fast, but not cohesive. Pity those who went from a igloo into 107 degree heat.

Maybe the next step is he shows up with a killer wig.

Disco's Rug?

Disco Dan did not seal the deal, and has packed his bags heading to the Pacific Northwest to take over the reigns of the Kracken.

Sorry to see him go before getting to have him to sign a Penguins hat.
