Wiseman accepts Assistant Coach gig at Michigan

Aeros assistant coach Brian Wiseman had homecoming of sorts this season, returning not only to hockey after a 5-year break, but to the Aeros, where he played in his pro days.

After one season with the Aeros, he's now returning to Ann Arbor and his alma mater, the University of Michigan, as an assistant coach.

Here's the story from the Michigan web site.

Best of luck to Coach Wiseman!

The Texas Coaching Connection

There's an Aeros post over at the mothership about the coaching staff and their connections to Houston and Texas, which I just found to be rather interesting since Houston and Texas aren't really considered to be hockey hot beds.

It's not as good as I was hoping it would be. I was just kind of rushed this weekend, and didn't have as much time to work on it as I wanted, and it just really doesn't work at least for me, but I hope you'll go read it anyway.

(And good news is, at least this time, I'm not pissing off the Aeros business office or any fans. I think.)

Remember, let them know you like this stuff as I'm going into heavy college football mode for the next several months and I will be lucky to get out a hockey story a week.

Wiseman Returns To Aeros

The Aeros have completed their coaching staff. It was announced earlier today that Mike Yeo's assistants will be former Aeros player and Yeo teammate Brian Wiseman and the recently retired player Darryl Sydor.
