Luke Richardson has an impressive track record in the NHL. Having played 1400+ NHL games, coached an AHL team and was an Assistant Coach for the Canadiens, the only thing missing in his resume is NHL Head Coach. With the Montreal Canadiens inking a deal with Marty St-Louis, Richardson had no other choice but to look elsewhere to finally get his break as an NHL Head Coach.
According to Frank Seravalli, the Chicago Blackhawks are finalizing a deal with Richardson for the Head Coaching position. When the deal goes through, this will make Richardson the 40th coach in the Blackhawks franchise.
