Melrose on coaching, broadcasting...


In Wednesday's St. Petersburg Times, Damian Cristodero wrote about former Lightning coach Barry Melrose and his alleged clashes with owners over players' ice time. Fine...that sort of thing is always an interesting read, but we have no idea how true it is.

However, we were taken by a quote later in the article from Melrose on another subject. Cristodero writes...

"Melrose predicted he "quickly" will be back in broadcasting. He also said his coaching days are over. 'It was perfect,' he said. 'My last game (Thursday) was against the Red Wings, the organization I started with. I think God was trying to tell me something.'"

Perfect? Detroit spotted Tampa Bay two goals before storming back with four of their own (three in the third period) to beat Tampa, 4-3.

Sometimes, God doesn't speak in mysterious ways. He just says, "get out!"
