I have to imagine the only reason would be he is sick of the travel because I cannot imagine that would be more lucrative than his current gig. That can't be a great path to a front office, can it? The other rumors out there had him in contention for the Hurricanes head coaching job. So who knows...might just be rumors and nothing more. He wouldn't outright shoot down the Hurricanes rumor on the radio the other day, but that doesn't mean much.
