Summer School for the Coach

The Vancouver Canucks' newly-minted head coach, Willie Desjardins, has sheepishly confessed that despite his Gallic name, he does not speak French. He says, "I don't have an ear for languages."

Fortunately, there is time to learn before the season begins, and team management has arranged for Desjardins to attend summer school with previous Canucks coaches Alain Vigneault and John Tortorella.

"A.V. will teach him to speak French," said Trevor Linden. "Torts will teach him to swear."
