Personally I'm pretty sure Claude will be back next season. But since we are talking about an alternative here, is Boucher stilll available?
Yep. Currently working for RDS I believe.

And Molson does????
Best wishes to Julien. By all accounts, from everyone revolving around him, he's as classy as it gets.
On another note, I think the management has to prepare to the eventuality of hiring a new Head Coach. Coaching in an NHL hotbed is probably the worst job possible for your cardiac health, and I would not be surprised if Julien decides to call it quit and stay home. I think he's a man of family first and foremost, and with good reason.
Any chance Gerard Gallant speaks French?
Molson is very good at the business side of it.
He should at least understand it, I guess. He played his junior in the Q in Sherbrooke, spent many years coaching in the Q and as assistant at NHL level in Montreal... But for some reasons we don't know and cannot understand, he is very good with his teams the first coupe of years and then falls off a cliff... Like Guy Boucher.
This is such an idiotic oversimplification.
Boucher never got a good team. He raised them much higher than they should've normally performed, which is a hard thing to maintain.
If he ever comes back, I hope he does so with a good roster for once.
By itself stenting of a coronary artery is not that big of a deal. Of bigger concern was if he suffered an M.I. If he did part of his heart tissues dies and the function of the heart can be compromised depending on where and how big it was. That never comes back. If it was a NSTMI that's different, or if he just had some angina it's even better.
Apathy? The Leafs had been Cupless for 44 years but the pension fund that used to own it still made bank when they cashed out and sold the team in 2011.How's that? He's only continuing what Boivin and Gillett built.
His inability to properly oversee hockey operations will eventually lead to long-term business consequences, like the ever increasing apathy from fans which could translate in a much smaller new generation of fans in the near future.
I do not think Guy would survive 2 seasons in Montreal.Yep. Currently working for RDS I believe.

«Écoute, aux dernières nouvelles la santé à Claude est bonne. Mais encore là, c'est tôt... Un arrêt cardiaque et des malaises au coeur c'est certain que ce n'est pas évident. Alors, on va prendre le temps nécessaire pour évaluer sa santé...»
“As far as Claude, we all know what happens. He's back in Montreal. And I'm going back to Montreal. In the next few weeks, we gonna talk...”
Am I the only one who thinks there is a legttimate chance that Julien won't be the Habs coach next season?
I'd say it's probably a lot closer to 50/50 than people might think. Heart issues and a high stress job don't really go well together. Plus he's 60 now and not in great shape so he's higher risk .Am I the only one who thinks there is a legttimate chance that Julien won't be the Habs coach next season?
Does he call it quits today or not?
