Karine Hains: Rocket Down 2-1 in the AHL's Eastern Conference Final Laval played with fire and got burnt last night, dropping game 3 by a 6-3 score.

TSN 690 is suggesting Larry Robinson but at 71, I’m not sure Robinson would be up to the challenge…time to give Andrei Markov a call perhaps? He was a great puck-mover and rarely took bad decisions on the ice…



Markov definitely has the knowledge to do a good job, but wouldn't he be lacking a bit of charisma and/or clarity if he isn't speaking Russian?

Nasreddine is available

Wait...callers, or the anchors?

Also, about Markov...the guy barely speaks, I don't see him as a good communicator.

At least not in English.

probably both lol... they're surely reminiscing about how Robinson was ignored by the habs a few years back before he joined the sharks, and now they want to give him the chance, but I think that ship has sailed.

100% agreed, nothing against the guy, but for an NHL coaching job, I just don't see it.

When Bergevin was fired and we were waiting on them to choose a new GM, I heard a caller who wanted Ken Dryden.

Ken Dryden last worked for a hockey team in 2004

He is 74 years old.

Some people need to let go.

I think a lot of folks assume that because they're part of the habs' legends that they'd automatically do a good managing or coaching job and bring the team to victory.

It's like the whole nostalgia around Patrick Roy.

Well, that can be done running backward !

I think it's time for Sergei Fedorov and his pulling the goalie in overtime chaos.

- stinger67

yeah just saw that, he is not digesting the Ramparts getting eliminated very well

As for Robinson, I think it would be a good idea to bring him in and work with the kids on D, not necessarily as a full time member of the coaching staff.

Maybe be an advisor to MSL and work in player development/front office.

His experience as a coach and working with defensemen would be a huge benefit to a rebuilding club with a rookie coach.

considering his age this could be an option, but they'll still need to bring in someone full-time.
