Laraque Gerard Gallant Apparently Met with Msl and Kent Hughes in Toronto the Other Day

[Adam Michaels]

As title suggests, Laraque's news is that MSL and Hughes were seen in a restaurant in Toronto a few days ago having dinner with Gallant.

Im oretty sure this is coming by Gorton.

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Makes sense

 

[Vachon23]

Good news, someone with a lot of experience

So they eat.....

My guess was good
Dumb news cause it doesn't mean anything but it was about assistant coaches.

 

[Hannibal]

Gallant was a Gorton hire in NY.

MSL said he didnt want any help and then picked his old buddy to sit as an advisor. This seems like Kent is forcing help on him. I think thats the right move. lets see how it goes

I think that’s Gorton putting his feet down. Bypassing Hughes and MSL

Well there you go. That and the plane landing in St-Hubert. Même combat.

Yes lol

But if its really true that they are looking for help, MSL publicly said he didnt needed it and Hughes was supporting him.

Lmao the foxhole just keeps on going

Whether Gallant is hired or not, I hope he told MSL to get rid of the damn man-to-man defense at dinner.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

I'm good with that!

Seems like we just keep going from one foxhole to another. I don’t mind Gallant though.

I'd like to think they were mapping it out with pepper shakers and dinner rolls on the table.

Foxhole because of who??? Bobrov?

 

[Killswitch]

Rule of thumb. If someone says they don't need help they probably need help. Ego's get in the way.

Because Gorton and Hughes and Martin are bringing friends

 

[MXD]

Gallant seems to be the type of guy which orders its steak well-done, which makes him the absolute worst type of person, but he did show that he could work as an assistant in the NHL (...and as a head coach, too, but I don't think it's the point).

I'm not quite sure he is what MSL needs as an assistant though. Maybe he'd replace Letowski, who seems to have absolutely no purpose?

Every hockey executive in the history of hockey who has had hiring capabilities brings in friends and those he is familiar/comfortable with.

Whether that's right or not is up for debate. But it's how it has always been.
