They want a different perspective?
Do all Canadian curlers have the same perspective/strategy on curling? No - of course not. If you round up 20 elite level Canadian curlers, you can have at least 10 different perspectives. So the needing to go outside of Canada in order to get a 'different perspective' argument goes out the window.
It's like hiring an American to teach elite level hockey for Hockey Canada...
Or hiring a Canadian to teach elite level baseball or football for the top organizations of those sports in the U.S.
Or hiring a Canadian to teach elite level soccer in Brazil or Spain or...
No. Canada might get 10 different perspectives but none of them are good enough. Who is the person better than David Murdoch who has built an elite program in Scotland and wants the challenge to do the same for Canada? Comparing to other sports I'm not but buying either. Can't compare soccer in Brazil or football to curling. Anyway, I guess time will tell but I wish the best for David Murdoch and our top level curlers in Canada.
