Of course, this comes too after it was confirmed that he was granted permission to interview for the vacant AHL job in Wilkes Barre.
At first glance, moving to another AHL team would seem to be redundant for Nelson. However looking at the coaching situations in Pittsburgh (Wilkes Barre) and Carolina (Charlotte), both coaches could be on the hot seat in the near future.
