A 'Hull' of a way to go!

A sports quickie. Once again the Dallas Stars are one-and-done in the Stanley Cup playoffs and it's all because or their pathetic lack of offense. That stems form a massive failure to even court a free agent who might be considered a "sniper."
Head Coach Dave Tippett will probably be fired and the search for the person who will begin for someone to retain the players' respect and attention.
I have such a name - someone others looked to during his playing days.
BRETT HULL!
He's feisty, firey and won't take crap from anyone. He would institute an offensive scheme geared to scoring. He'd insist on players with shooting ability, not an entire roster of low-paid grinders. He'd also insist on some real speed and dump the excess baggage like Lindros, Nagy, Klemm, Nordstrom, and others.
More importantly, he would awaken the dormant feelings in Dallas where no one, outside of the arena crowd itself, seems to care.
Perhaps that would include the superstitious idiot owner Tom Hicks, (who wouldn't travel to Vancouver because of some stupid Game 7 "superstition" but was at the Ballpark wathcing the Rangers). I'd betcha he'd certainly take a road trip if the Rangers were in the playoffs (don't worry; his seat in blue-blood GOP rich Highland Park is safe).
I'll take all the credit for this movement in Dallas: BRETT HULL AS COACH!
