[Vijo Morganstein]

Give Ducharme the reins

 

[Cobra Commander]

 

[ZUKI]

President ; Quintal or B. Smith
GM ; M. Brodeur or Bouchard
Coach ; Ducharme

or

President ; R Corey
GM ; R Houle
Coach ; Tremblay and Yvan Cournoyer

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Ducharme. It’s a new NHL. Put a fresh face in the spot.

 

[Deebs]

If Claude is fired, hire the best coach available.....not just the best french speaking coach available. Same with the General Manager if that should happen.

 

[Vachon23]

I’m not sure Ducharme have enough experience in the NHL to be HC right know. That’s why I would keep Julien next year and after If he still dosen’t make the job, Bouchard or Ducharme will maybe have enough experience at this time.

Not sure Brodeur is still available with his new job he had yesterday

 

[FinnHab]

It is Ducharme. I think that job is allready promised to him.

 

[Leon Lucius Black]

I am not a huge fan of Julien but he doesn't deserve to be fired. This team has been competitive and at least in games for the most part, they lose due to a lack of talent and not due to a lack of effort.

Coaches don't have a huge shelf life, so I'd say when Julien does get fired then I hope Ducharme takes over as I'd hate to just hire another recycled dinosaur.

 

[robicgi]

I'd like to see Roy and Robinson and maybe Brodeur at least considered. Not sure Bouchard or Ducharme have enough experience. Saying that I feel Julien has done the best he can with what he has so hard to fault him outside of his over use of average vets but he is dealing with kids and it's never easy with such a young team. Like him as a coach just wrong guy for such a young team.

I'd also at least kick the tires on those 3 for GM as well.

 

[mariolemieux66]

Julien is fine for now. Need to get rid of Molson and Bergevin ASAP!

This is complete and utter crap.

Have you seen CBJs lineup? Have you seen the Isles line up? Winnipeg? He is not a good coach. This is it. If he cant bring anything out of this team AND hes known as a terrible young players coach, he needs to be canned.

Stoo with the god damned excuse.

 

[durojean]

I'd do Ducharme with Boucher for an Assistant coach. His background in psychology, his experience and the fact that he always same to do well with young players makes him a great fit for our team right now. Before doing that I also talk to Bouchard asking him his plan and what he wants to do. I'd rather him staying down because he does a great job developping the kids but he deserve way more. It depends on what he wants.

 

[Whitesnake]

Coach possibilities? Pascal Vincent, Benoit Groulx, Dominic Ducharme or Joel Bouchard. Julien's replacement, if ever, will be between those guys.

 

[Guy Larose]

Weal from healthy scratch to PP again tonight....Julien a good coach? lol

 

[Vachon23]

if we make a change this year, Pascal Vincent would be my choice. He knows very well Ducharme and Bouchard and he has the experience that the 2 others dosen’t have.

 

[Adam Michaels]

I'd give it to Pascal Vincent or Benoit Groulx immediately. Because both have a lot more experience in the pros than Ducharme and Bouchard.

But the heir apparent has to be Ducharme. So I don't know how you bring in Vincent or Groulx without it being a slight on Ducharme. Or how you bring them in temporarily with the plan to put Ducharme there in a few years.

 

[Adriatic]

Julien should not be fired. He's doing a masterful job with this roster.

I think he would be the 1st to admit that he dosen’t have enough experience. Vincent was the guy who give him his shoot in the Q and they have a good relationship.

I talk about it this week non the draft thread, but my choice would be Andre Tourigny. He had success every where he went

- 2x Coach of the year in the OHL
- 1x Coach of the year in the QMJHL
- Alote of scout says that his system is NHL level
- 3 years of experience behind and NHL bench
- 15 years of experience as a Head coach in JNR.
- Really good in developing young player
- He articulates way better then Ducharme


Something I think that could be interesting though if Ducharme is the next HC, is that Martin St-Louis said in an interview that he would to comeback in the NHL as an assistant in 2 years and Ducharme and St-Louis know each other very well. I think it would be interesting to have St-Louis as an Assistant Coach for players offensive mind players
