Hmm... poor tactics, good motivations, player's coach.... Bombay is the hockey equivalent of Les Miles.

That's a great way to torpedo Bombay's stock on this site.

Difference is that Bombay had no quirky disposition. He was well-dressed and well-spoken.

Bombay did have that unpredictability thing going. Subbing taking out Goldberg for the cold female goaltender in Julie Gaffney to face Gunner Stahl on the final shot is a crazier affront to conventional wisdom than any of Miles' 4th down calls.
