Scotty Bowman retired from coaching after the 2002 season—but he did not leave hockey or the Detroit Red Wings. He signed a three-year contract to continue working for the Wings in a new role—as a consultant. His responsibilities include assessing and analyzing the team and providing input on player personnel decisions. He reports to Red Wings General Manager Ken Holland. "Now," Bowman said shortly after starting his new job, "I can go to the games and I don't have to win them." He lives near Buffalo, N.Y., with his wife, Suella.
