Well, it sounds more and more like they are going to need to hire a new head coach. While McHale has impressed as the team's replacement for Randy Wittman, he sounds less than enthusiastic about the idea of returning in that position for another year. If he opts to abdicate his spot (management would prefer that he didn't) then a coaching search will commence that will almost certainly begin and end with former Wolf, Sam Mitchell. Mitchell has experience mentoring young big men, he has ties to the organization from his playing days (and from the fact that Rob Babcock, who hired him in Toronto, is Minnesota's assistant GM) and he is only two years removed from being named the league's Coach of the Year. While his interest in the job (and the interest of management in him) is far from certain, the match makes logical sense
