Asked what his players would say about him, McLeod hopes the first word would be inclusive. He deliberately sets up situations that get the group talking about hockey, presents them with new strategies and invites them to quiz him on it, which he compares to a chess match where the occasional what-if from a player forces him to think differently. Beyond that, he would want them to say he is fair and that he cares about them, something he believes is obvious from the working environment. Watch the full Coach Chat: AMA with Shane McLeod.
