A matter of honour part 2 

A post on HFBoards gives yet another reason why Pat Quinn shouldn't be named head coach of Canada's World Cup team.

To summarize, Quinn is the only non-player ever expelled from the NHL for dishonourable conduct. Albeit by another crook in John Ziegler.

Quinn accepted a position, and money, with the Canucks while still head coach of the Kings. He also hid his contract with Kings for a period of time so that he could continue to collect money from the Flyers. And he refused to pay the Russian hockey federation money that the Canucks owed them.

So he's a liar, crook and deadbeat but he's a good choice to represent Canada?

No wonder he became a lawyer. It's a shame the position of NHL League President no longer exists. He'd be a perfect candidate for it.
