Has anyone taken a crack at coaching at the World Jrs? I was off to a blazing start with the Canadiens and I applied for the job not really expecting to get it but I got the Canadian job. My team breezed through the round robin and the playoffs up to the finals. Then my goalie of the future, Price, desides to disappear and posts a rating of 3. Needless to say I got shellacked in the final.

I love coaching the Canadien Jr's, I've never once got it in my first season though, they'd rather pick some nobody GM from the juniors then an NHL GM for some reason. :roll:

That makes sense for me. Juniors GMs work all the year with the youngs, so they may have a better understanding about to run a U20 team than a NHL GM :-k

They know perfectly what it means to manage a U20 team, as it's their primary job. They even have a closer eye on youngs, as they deal with them all along the year.

But if you apply for the senior team, NHL GMs are always welcomed ;)
