So, we all know that Lindy is the longest-tenured coach in the NHL.. did you know that #2 (in the east), Claude Julien, was hired on June 21, 2007.. while Lindy Ruff was hired on July 21, 1997?
That is nearly (minus one measly month) a 10 year difference!
The rest of the list can be found here, if you're curious
I'm flabbergasted. I mean, I know that Mr. Ruff has been with the Sabres for a very long time, but what I didn't realize was just how short of a run the rest of the Eastern Conf. coaches have had. I wonder who is the longest in the West?

I believe Barry Trotz has been with the Predators almost as long as Lindy's been with the Sabres so I'm sure he's at the top. I wonder who number 2 is though.
