Head coaches matter in the NHL. Often a team like the San Jose Sharks can go from terrible to good after changing coaches without making major roster changes.
Here is a look back at the last five Sharks head coaches ranked from fifth to first.
The factors considered are the coach's record with the Sharks, longevity, regular-season record and, most importantly, playoff success.
A coach needs to have lasted at least half a season with the Sharks (or 41 games) in order to be considered for this list. Interim coaches who coached only briefly or took over for a sick or suspended coach are not included here.
Feel free to comment on any coach discussed and why you feel he should be ranked higher or lower on the list. As always, indicate why you feel the way you do.
