Rick Bowness, Winnipeg's former coach, announced his retirement after the team was eliminated from the playoffs.Arniel talked about his time working with Bowness and how he learned so much from him.“He's been a source ( of inspiration) for me, whether it was when I was applying for jobs or whether I was, even just coaching when he was in Tampa, I was in New York, there was a lot of rivalry then, but we'd always talk about different things - the league, players, all that," Arniel said. (via NHL)"He had so much experience, he's done so much in his career, especially at the coaching level, that he's an easy sounding board for me to go to often. And it grew a great friendship, not only being a coach of mine but also being a mentor as a coach.”Arniel is himself a former Winnipeg Jets left wing; he was drafted in the second round of the 1981 NHL Draft, and played 406 regular-season games.Arniel faces the challenge of leading the Winnipeg Jets to a deep Stanley Cup Playoffs run, as the team has been eliminated in the past couple of seasons in the first round itself. Arniel's experience will be put to the test to see if he brings out the best in Winnipeg.
