For all the talk at Wednesday’s presser about the scars he’s accumulated since the last time he worked here, Glen Gulutzan doesn’t show it. Same chiseled features; same great hair. Even at 53, which is young only if you’re on this side of the Medicare line,

It was still a bit surreal for Gulutzan to be back in the Stars’ home arena, where he was a first-time NHL head coach in his early 40s, and only about six weeks after being in the opposing locker room following Edmonton’s loss in Game 1 of the West Final.

The Dallas Stars have hired Glen Gulutzan as their head coach 12 years after he was fired from his first stint with them.
