I know, that’s fair.I was just posting the info as it was talked about in the thread.
I wanted Favreau or Aubin. @Vachon23 also wanted Gilles Bouchard or Stephane Julien and I trust his judgment of Q coaches so would have been happy too.
I wish Vincent all the success, but he was not my guy. I do hope Hughes/Gorton/Sedgwick are right and he does great.
As I said, as long as he does better on game readiness and defensive structure than Houle, I'll be happy on the Laval side. As for the development side, if it's on the level of Houle I'll be okay.
I have followed his career over the years and I never understood why he got a job in the AHL without proving A THING in the Q, aside from being telegenic for the media. He’s a lot like Bouchard. Sweet talker.
There were MUCH better coaches than him in the Q. Not even close.
And yes, some were hard-nosed coaches, like Groulx. But they WON. He failed. But man, he was a beauty with Leroux and the others of the press corps. That he was.
Not my team, not my money. But as a fan, not impressed.
