Admittedly, it would be kind of a bummer to kick off a new show with the reveal that good old Coach Bombay had died, but it would allow Charlie to really follow in Bombay’s footsteps of stepping away from his previous life to become a hockey coach.
The show could open with the reveal that Coach Bombay had recently passed away, and his death motivated Charlie to revisit his roots as a hockey fan.
If the stars should somehow align and Joshua Jackson was willing to sign on for a regular role on a Mighty Ducks TV show, I have an idea.
In honor of his mentor, Charlie could become the coach of a new generation of misfit kids just waiting to be molded into hockey champions.
