As for DU Alum Kevin Dineen’s future, he’s just going to take each day one at a time. With NHL head coaching jobs available in Ottawa, Toronto, Atlanta, San Jose and Florida and Dineen’s name attached to all of them in one way or another, he’s not taking anything for granted.
“I’m going to take a couple more days to take care of things around here and then there’s that personal time were you have to do a little evaluating on you own future and right now we’re still in that evaluation stage.”
Dineen still under contract til July 1 has some unfinished business to take care in Portland before he’ll turn his focus to his future, which will include a job offer from the Anaheim Ducks.
Ducks’ General Manager Brian Burke has offered Dineen a chance to move up in the organization, meaning the future Ducks farm club will have a new head coach in place for next year.
“It’s something that you get excited about when (Burke and staff) feel you’ve done a good enough job where (Anaheim) would offer for you to move forward in the organization,” said Dineen.
“We’ll see how it goes from there… I’m very fortunate that Anaheim has offered me a role to move forward in their future,” Dineen said. “We’ll evaluate that, I signed a three-year deal and now we’ll move forward from there.”
