Say what?  He's taken a team that Hockey East coaches picked for dead last
in their preseason poll and has them playing .500 and in third place.
Personally, I don't think they'll finish that high, but I had to agree
with Shawn Walsh when he said that Whitehead is a strong Coach of the
Year candidate, which is almost unheard of for first-year coaches.
