What would fans say if Lemaire ended up wanting to keep Gally at LW...He and Gabrorik didn't seem to get alone, Benioit Pouliout was actually drafted as a centre and Lemaire turned him into a winger.
But generally speaking, I'd be happy for the Habs to hire him in a consulting role, the guy knows the game.
One thing that's has become clear is wtv system the Habs play isn't just structured by Therrien but has Bergevin input, Bergevin already said that he has the AHL team playing the same system, is trying to go out a hire Lemaire.
Another note, I think this adds zero pressure to MT, Lemaire wants nothing to do with coaching in Mtl even as a interim I bet.
Before Bob Gainey hired Jacques Martin the rumour was he wanted Lemaire, Lemaire wouldn't coach unless he got something like 3M per year, and when Gainey agreed, Lemaire said he wanted Mario Tremebly as the associate coach and he would be the guy to talk to media not Lemaire, and Gainey said screw that and hired Martin. Too young to remember Lemaire playing days or coaching days with the Habs put it seems old that he doesn't like the media so much.
