Dom Dom extended 3-years

WE PAY CASH lol. Hiring a coach who can't speak english well for a team with almost all english players, BRILLIANT!
 
I think Dom Dom gives the most thought provoking (analytical & detailed) replies during media sessions in my lifetime, since I’ve only seen limited highlights of Scotty during his Habs years.

He's definitely a bit odd. His eyeballs popping out of his head when he speaks is a bit freaky too.
 
I can't understand a word he says either (in English or French) but he seems to have a good mix of modern-day tactical knowledge with old school motivation.
 
Oh ya, I forgot we hire coaches based on how they can speak french to the media, my bad.
He was hired to coach the national junior team so I guess his English was good enough.

Frankly I don't care how good or bad his English is. He needs to be able to communicate with his players. The media can damn well hire a translator.

Besides, we all know he's going to get fired before that 3 year contract is done.

I've never heard Price or Weber talk this way (praises) about Julien or Therrien....and this was even before playoffs....same with Gally

I think DD knows when to be the Alpha in the room, and when not to be......Therrien and Julien were always the Alpha's in the room, their way or you sit.

Yeah, also the guys who played for him in juniors (Canada and Halifax) seem to adore him...
 
Don't forget that the locker room lost Muller, who was always the player's coach, the bridge between management and players......and the Habs still thrived.

I think having DD-Luke-Burke-Burrows with a fresh younger approach helped relax the players.

Also, they never benched Staal, and like it or not, that also helped in the locker room (even though it might have cost us a Cup, well maybe not)
