Rod Brind’Amour is completely deserving of this award. The job he did getting the @Canes ready to play every night this season and leading the team to the Central Division title was amazing…and he’ll give all the credit to everyone else. https://t.co/aNFn2s8B4t

Very happy, as President of the NHL Broadcasters' Association, that our membership has recognized Rod Brind'amour as this year's Coach of the Year. All 3 finalists have Whalers/Hurricanes ties and were worthy candidates!

Gotta be an amazing coach for the @NHL to award it to the one in North Carolina. Our @Canes Coach Rod Brind’Amour had to be the runaway choice to win. And he was. Congrats Coach! https://t.co/Vu3P7DhOAZ
