Rod Brind’Amour

The Carolina Hurricanes are a hard team to play thanks to their coach. Elliotte sat down with Rod Brind’Amour in Ottawa the day after his son, Skyler, won the Frozen Four with Quinnipiac. They talk about Skyler’s journey in hockey, the make up of the Canes, why he got into coaching, the Stanley Cup run in 2006, being part of some massive trades during his playing days, his relationship with owner Tom Dundon, the culture in Carolina and the changes he feels need to be made to officiating in the NHL to make it an even playing ground.
