Montreal’s next head coach!

What’s old is new again.

Montreal’s next head coach!

 

[Habsy]

I don't think so this time though. Feels different. The French media aren't happy so something is up.

 

[MindzEye]

If I've learned anything about our respective hockey markets, its that when our media is happy, our club probably fucked up

 

[Habsy]

I'm envisioning a Shanaplan type scenario within two years with Gorton playing the part of Shanahan. Gortoplan just doesn't have the same ring though.

[LeafOfFaith]

If that role is going to be filled by someone, it probably should’ve been some Habs legend. And then hire the best English speaking GM.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

How can you look at the Habs right now and NOT be interested in the guy who got them there??

 

[hockeylover]

Good grief. Hockey is unreal.

Bergevin is just Benning without the drafting. And with the rape.

Are you cool with an analytics/skill direction then? You've seemed pretty vocal that wasn't the way to win in the playoffs.

That'd be so dumb. They should just hire whoever the hell they want and hire a guy who speaks French to be an assistant or something, tell the media to shove it if they don't like it.

 

[Habsy]

Oh please please please

Gorton basically said the Habs analytics "department" was an utter joke. With Sedgwick sometimes doing it.

Yes I'm perfectly fine with it. The eye test hasn't worked in decades in Montreal.

Bergevin as GM and Boudreau as coach seems... weird to me. They don't seem like a fit.

 

[Habsy]

Oh as for playoffs? Full troll rules apply.

What rape? In Chicago?

From what I read Bergevin wasn't named once in the report.

This is what a cup run does in hockey however.
