Scott Arniel believes overcoming the lowest point in his career will help him reach higher aspirations with the Winnipeg Jets.
Arniel was named the new head coach of the Jets on Friday, 12 years after his only other time in the role ended with him being fired by the Columbus Blue Jackets.
\"One of the darkest times for me in coaching -- probably in hockey -- was when I got fired in Columbus,\" Arniel said at a media availability at Canada Life Centre on Monday. \"I had never been through it. It took a long time to get over it.
\"Whether it was anger or it was doubt. Whatever it was, it took a while. You can ask my wife, you can ask my kids, even some of my friends -- I was a grumpy person.\"
