Hitch wins the Jack Adams Award

Ken Hitchcock wins
Coach of the Year

Former Columbus Blue Jackets Coach Ken Hitchcock won the Jack Adams award for Coach of the Year tonight.  Coach Hitchcock, the winningest coach in CBJ history, won the award for the superlative job he did after taking over the St. Louis Blues this year.

A heartfelt congratulations coach, from a long time fan.  You probably should have won it in 2007-08 for doing so much with so little.  But you have it now.

This award likely salts Hitch's place in the Hall of Fame.  And for that I am extremely happy.

Well done Coach Hitchcock.  Well done indeed!
