I know that Pierre Lacroix's name has been put out there, but I am having a hard time understanding it. He will be 69 years old before the start of next season and he has had some health issues in the past. Plus, Kroenke canned his son, Eric Lacroix. It does not make much sense to me.
Lacroix probably feels an attachment to the organization. He brought this team two cups... was the leader and main driver of that success. That has to hold a lot of sentiment to him, and he probably wants to the org to be brought back. The health issues are apparently behind him. 69 would be near the top of the league, but there are others in the 67-68-69 age range. David Poile isn't likely to quit over the next few years.
