Speculation: Who will be the Habs next coach?

[RealityBytes]

Since a French speaking coach is a necessity, let the OQLF decide.

 

[shao01]

Julien Brisebois?

I wouldn't mind him but as assisttant only..

​

Go for an assistant GM. Somebody like what the Stars did with Jim Nill.

I like Brisebois as assistant and we have also have to get rid of Therrien or else just changing an assistnat GM wouldn't be enough I don't think...

 

[Kimota]

Gonna be Lefebvre.

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

Therrien. Gaston Therrien.

 

[Habs8517]

Should have been Mike Babcock but the Habs dont care about winning the Cup. The only thing they care is the ability to speak French.

They even go so far to try and create a artificial french superstar by the name of David Desharnais because i cannot find a logical reason why that trash has been hindering for 4 years Alex Galchenyuk.

 

[JPGoHabsGo]

Will be default once they fire Therrien.

But hopefully the next coach is hired based off competence and not the language he speaks.

LOL lets be honest, that will unfortunatley always be a problem for us. I wish it wasn't but the reality is we will never not have that issue.

Unless the Nords come back and take major political pressure off of the team, but even then it isn't guaranteed. Which, is pretty sad really.

Hiring Guy Boucher makes too much sense for it to not happened. One of his formner assistants is already coaching here and he already coached two of our star players. That being said I'm actually expecting Lefebvre at this point considering how mamgement likes to hire person friends and because Lefebvre is already used to Therrien's coaching methods.

 

[Brainiac]

I did the only logical thing and clicked the 4 boxes.

 

[jaffy27]

Michel Therrien Jr.

 

[Miller Time]

if Boucher isn't the next coach, i'll be stunned... and banging the fire bergevin drum until it inevitably happens.

 

[19VJ17]

This is stupid!!!

How come you don't have Sylvain Lefebvre#5 IN THE POLL!!!

Everyone knows Sylvain Lefebvre#5 is a better coaching and has been a winner everywhere he has coached.
Infact Sylvain Lefebvre#5 has a better coaching record than the combined Sylvain Lefebvre#1,2,3 and 4

Not a big fan of Boucher.....but Therrien is just worst at this point.
But it make sense to go with him. I would welcome that change.

Lefebvre, i don't want.
Carbo, not a coach.
Vincent, Groulx are green...green coach don't do well in Montreal

Go Boucher

Want more candidates in the pot, sign this. We'll send it to the media once it gets some traction.

 

[LaP]

Alexei Kovalev

 

[Vi Nc E x13x]

People forget about Crawford who is killing it in Europe as a coach

Groulx has been coaching forever how green is he, really? I know he has not coached in the NHL but the guy has ton of experience. He's not a fast raiser like Boucher was when he went to the NHL for example.

The thing is if a coaching change is going to happen in season (especially this late in season) it's usually someone within the system so it's pretty much down to Lefebre, Lacroix, Daigneault, or maybe someone like Martin Lapointe or Scott Mellanby, at least for the interim.

The Walrus is currently an assistant in Anaheim so you can take him off the list for this season.

I'd be interested to see if Muller or Boucher were on the list (assuming there is a list someone in a locked compartment somewhere).

Done.

I see all these talk from everyone(including myself but mostly because I don't know how) about wanting changes made but no action is actually taken.

So I appreciate the effort to improve our team.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Elvis Gratton for sure

 

[19VJ17]

MT is a good table setter, bring in the right coach and I can see this team amping up for a good run at the Cup.

I would go with Boucher

For interim Coach, Larry Robinson would be a good choice

 

[Kojo]

Bring in Boucher as a consultant and if the Habs keep losing promote him to head coach.

 

[NobleSix]

They were all so enticing that I couldn't decide.... So I voted for all of them.

 

[Zorba]

Elvis Gratton for sure

Felipe Alou!! Even the French media would say yes to this.

Does Tony have a "scoop"?
