He realizes now just how much he didn't know back then. “But I didn't know I didn't know it," he said, “and that was big because I didn't have any doubt.” And there hasn't been any doubt since, either, about Brind'Amour becoming one of the league's top coaches. He's now 6-for-6 in getting the Carolina Hurricanes to the postsea

An MRI exam on Thursday showed that he sprained the MCL ligament, an injury that typically takes at least four weeks or more to heal. That means if Miami wins Friday, it still won't have Butler for a Round 1 playoff match
