For the first time in a long time, the Senators have the chance to hire one of the best coaches in hockey, and he's the only man for the job.
Six. That is the number of coaches that have run the Ottawa Senators since Jacques Martin was fired after nine fairly successful seasons. None of the men (besides perhaps Bryan Murray) since him have been good enough for the job, and there comes a point where you have to get it right. This next hiring will define Pierre Dorion's early career as a GM, and failure is not an option in the eyes of the entire Senators fanbase.
