Not to get ahead of myself, but I've always felt it is a shame that coaches don't get medals:(

terrific article on the coach at SI.
with requisite mention of BGSU.
"Bylsma is diligent. He had a 3.3 GPA at Bowling Green, where his he swears that his plan was to become an accountant. (When Bylsma starts ticking off all the members of his family who became accountants, he sounds like Marisa Tomei’s character on the witness stand in My Cousin Vinny when she lists all the mechanics in her family). As befits a four-year member of the CCHA all-academic hockey team, Bylsma always speaks in complete sentences, and sometimes in complete paragraphs. He also speaks gibe."
Uncommonly introspective, Bylsma leads USA hockey into the spotlight
