Gerard Gallant was a pretty good player in his prime.

Other than Lemaire is there an elite player that became a great NHL coach?

Wasn't Richardson a bottom pairing defenceman? Kinda like Bergevin? I know I know, I'm being negative.

The Islanders icon amassed 1,425 points in 1,279 regular-season games and won six Cups (four on Long Island, and two in Pittsburgh) as a player, then added another ring as an assistant coach with Colorado in 2001.

Your point is that great players make better coaches. He won one Cup as an assistant coach and didn't even make it through one season in his only stint as a head coach.

That Avs team goes down as probably the best assistant coached team in history.

Umm, no. Never said this. I said that being a good player could contribute to being a good coach to some degree. Also, Richardson has been named assistant coach. The subject here is therefore head coaches and/or assistants.
