Coach along with some guy I never heard of, started the Demons many years ago. They were the fun team, consisting of members from his band. Along the way Demon players came and went but Coach remained the same. He was friendly, witty, funny, and better than you think.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A little research and a little Hockey Autism tells me Coach started playing goalie for the Demons in 2009. <br \/><div id=\"attachment_11829\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11829\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-3-300x232.jpg\" alt=\"SHE'S A MARRIED WOMAN COACH!\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-3-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-3.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11829\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">SHE&#8217;S A MARRIED WOMAN COACH!<\/p><\/div>It was early in the season and he posted 3 shutouts in a row. He went from being their emergency goalie, to being one of the best goalies in the league for 6 1\/2 seasons. Much like fellow 2015 BTSH HOF inductee, Craig L., Coach did not have a lot of playoff wins. But almost every time the Demons were eliminated, they would fail to score 3 goals. In fact, often they&#8217;d fail to score even 1. In other words, Coach has always been clutch.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11828\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11828\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Will somebody credit Jerome, already?!?! \" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Coach-2.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Will somebody credit Jerome, already?!?!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>However Coach isn&#8217;t getting in for his play in net.

One day, we are just lounging in our room and we are watching Jeopardy! The category was something like French literature from the 1700&#8217;s. Black Rob and I are minding our own business, wishing Coach would let us turn on the Ravens pre-season game and all of a sudden Coach got the 200 question right. The contestant went to 400 and Coach got that right too. Coach ended up clearing the board and always answered the answer (It is Jeopardy! remember) before the contestant did. It was at that moment that I realized I&#8217;d rather room with Black Rob than Coach because me no like feeling dumb.<\/p>\n<p>So congrats Coach. I hope one day you get that elusive BTSH Championship. I really really really really really do.
