ugh, sorry but that I find it's a pointless and old mentality.

hey! what do you want, I'm an old schmuck.
in a league where it's who you know, I still think it is important for Habs to let french quebecer scouts know that it is possible to dream, that it is possible to reach the top. you seriously think Brisebois would have a job in TB if Habs had not hire him first?
and btw, tell me how or why a french guy could not do better than Tréveur.
I know, I'm alone on that one.

that's the thing, competence doesn't have anything to do with language. if I'm all for continuing to prioritize hiring Quebecers but if they feel there's someone that could do a better job and doesn't speak French then that's the person they should hire.

of course the guy needs to be good if not excellent. but pretty sure there are plenty of talented scouts who would do just fine. just like for coaches. or gms.

if that's the case, then sure, but they should be able to interview anyone, despite the language they speak. my 2 cents anyway.

the league is full of english speaking scouts and coaches. are they better for it?
at the end of the day, it's a boys club. you hire who you know. if Habs don't hire french speaking scouts coaches gm.... who will? who will give them their first chance?

anyway, enough of that. happy tks giving Pat. and (frank) them.

meh, if the owner and GM speak french and are available to talk to the media I don't think there would be such an outcry. if there are competent French-speaking people that are available to fill out all positions then sure, go ahead, but I think the controversy stems from a loud minority of people and media, things have evolved and the majority of fans just want a winning team now.

Anyway, with the bullpoop they are serving us, I think I would prefer having them speaking only Finnish which would just save us all…

2021-2022 is a total write off…. The only way Price will be traded is by another GM…. Not before next summer at the draft and not without retaining at least 40% of his salary…. Gallagher… MCA

MCA = Même câlisse d’affaire…

At the deadline, I see Chiarot leaving for a LTE 1st pick and Lekkonen for a late 2nd pick….

Petry can rebound next year and Drouin value is as high as the odds of seeing my mother in law running for Miss Universe

Meilleure chance la prochaine fois!!!

That whoever is at the helm then will have realized that this team needs to be a seller and maximize its return on vets that won’t be there anymore when the Canadiens can aspire to be relevant again and yes, to me, that includes Carey Price.



while I don't necessarily disagree, do you honestly think there would be any takers, considering the contract he has?
