He's a stand up guy; very personable, always mature beyond his years, and even that long ago you people knew he was always going to excel in whatever he did as a career in hockey (a coach role just makes sense). AHL and clubs higher take notice if you want that quality guy who has the natural talent and charisma to steer a group in the right direction.

Neil...I got to know Neil Graham as a hockey player. Neil worked hard every shift. Every game. I am not shocked by his success in the least. Neil won't be out worked. His character is unquestioned. He has a passion for hockey.<br /><br />Neil also has a glowing personality off the ice. He has the gift of gab...He understands how to build relationships. I will be shocked if one day he doesn't coach at a higher level...Possibly the NHLAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774104871382582856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8712793719703864210.post-85091881186714923042017-01-31T09:10:12.120-06:002017-01-31T09:10:12.120-06:00Granted, Coach Graham is young but do you see him ...Granted, Coach Graham is young but do you see him possibly getting a look at the Texas head coach gig when it opens?
