Si le réflexe est normal, ça veut dire par contre que le processus de recherche du nouveau DG du Tricolore n’aura été qu’un gros show de boucane.



ouin, c'était vraiment stupide en tant que gestionnaire de considérer toutes les options et de se préparer un "plan B", au cas où Hughes refuserait le poste...

it's not only to have a plan B, it's also to get to know who's out there, maybe some could be hired for another job. everyone knows Hughes was his man from the start, they still had to meet with all the candidates.

exactly, they'll surely hire a few among the already interviewed candidates to fill other positions within the organization.

guess which agency represents Mailloux and who they are partnered with.

Give you a hint...

Two agencies merged together, one had the representation rights for Mailloux, the other was founded by the new Habs GM

- Symba007

Yeah I heard about that, Mitch Garber is also involved in Quartexx with Saputo so he's going to Seattle

and Hughes already told Gorton no once when he was with the NYR, he had to see what were his options.

leaving a player agency to become GM probably isn't a very simple process either

not sure, I heard he had to sell his shares in the ownership and he transferring his clients to Lecavalier, the brother of the former player who works for Quartexx.

They are the 5th largest agency, they have a lot of clients

- Symba007



I heard he sold his shares in the company during the merger, he was there as an employee only

agreed, my point is that for now the organization has kind of completely lost its luster and "power of attraction" in the hockey world, we'll see if these 2 fellas can bring some of it back.

I said "could", and judging by the use of the covid protocol and the frequent injuries it still remains a possibility.
