Genius, gentleman, innovator, and friend to so many. There's been a void in the hockey world and a lot of people's lives since Roger died. It is touching to read this forum and see how well he is remembered. Great posting ddawley, classy and appropriate, thanks.
RIP Roger. When I look back at all the coaches in Flyers history Roger always brings a smile to my face. He was just an unbelievably good coach, hockey genius, and a wonderful person. There will never be another hockey person like Roger Neilson. I miss him alot.
I don't think any Ranger fan will forget what he did for the blueshirts. We couldn't have a better man behind the bench for some of our proudest moments. Thanks.
I unfortunately never got a chance to even meet Roger before his untimely passing, but this vid gave me goosebumps by the end. RIP Roger.
