Greg Cronin, who waited a lifetime to be a head coach in the NHL, is tasked with turning around the Ducks. The team should get help Wednesday in the draft.
Cronin said he left draft strategizing to Verbeek and the scouts. “He’s got a vision of where he’s bringing this program and he knows which pieces are going to fit that vision well, and I don’t,” Cronin said during a phone conversation. “I can control only what I can control, and that’s how the current players are going to respond in preparation for training camp.”
Cronin checks those boxes. His resume includes time on the staff of the U.S. National Team Development program, assistant coaching jobs at Colby College, Maine and Colorado College, coaching the revival of Northeastern University’s downtrodden program, and assistant or associate coaching jobs with the New York Islanders and Toronto Maple Leafs. “When you marry the teaching part into the youth, it’s really exciting being part of this,” he said.
Cronin enjoyed driving his “cah” from Southern California to Maine after he was hired because he saw monuments and landmarks he had learned about as a history major at Colby College. “It feeds your soul a bit,” he said. He fed his curiosity by stopping along the way to visit Ducks players and ask them what happened last season. They had different answers.
‘It starts with the players. They have to take ownership of what happened. Anytime there’s adversity or a crisis or chaos, your job is to take ownership of it and then live in the solution.”
