Bylsma has quickly won over the young American team with his energy, especially during practices, where it's not unusual to see him diving onto the ice to create an obstacle for players entering the offensive zone or throwing a shoulder into the mix here and there.
"[Bylsma] has a lot of spunk and a lot of energy," Team USA forward Brock Nelson told ESPN.com. "Even in the locker room, you show up in the morning at 9:00 or 9:30 a.m. and he's bouncing around in gym clothes looking for coffee. I don't know if he necessarily needed it."
It's an energy Bylsma has always had, Richards said, but coaching with him in the world championships has helped the two share ideas and tips they've picked up since being on the same staff.
oh yeah and guess who he has on team roster...Yep Sabres soon to be second round pick Jack Eichel
