I don't think Irving will have anything less. It is a real loss for the Cats but we will have a good coach next year I am sure.

I'm just suggesting that this time around they should look for somebody that may stick for a few years....a complete turnover of coaching staff year after year has to take it's toll eventually. I don't think its a completly out to lunch theory? Yes ... we should hire some no-name guy so that the NHL won't steal him away from us. Maybe we should also try that approach with our drafting ... just draft kids that have no chance of playing pro so we can have them here for 4 or 5 years.

So your suggesting that Clem Jodoin,Ben Groulx etc... are no-name coaches? We could probably skip the draft since half our team are either free agent$$$,americans or euro's. But I guess money talks,that's why we can afford to pay guys about 500 000$ per year to coach here.

Yup it is.
When I was thinking of people to replace Torch, I never thought of him until I was told of this guy. It makes so much sense....

Christ, I was getting pumped up for both drafts trying to guess who is BS (NCAA) and who isn't and who the Cats are going to move and not move. Who will be the surprise trade and now I need to guess who the coach is. This is why you gotta love Jr hockey.

Gerard is from PEI......so not really a local. Also, why is it an obvious choice? Cause Billy mentioned it??

That must be why Billy is quiet. He told me last time I talked to him he said that someone was considering him for an Ass't job. He wouldn't say more.

Well another coach come and gone but one i did notice.... simon danis pepin is draft by the blackhawks and torchetti now works for them... hmmm maybe for torchetti going there hell give us denis pepin...... I think this season will be filled with more surprise....
But with torchetti now in chicago i think the odds of maybe bring pepin in might be a bit greater cause torchetti could say q can help his hockey career more then ncaa...
but this is just a wild theory i had if anybody has suggestions let me hear it.

Heard Mongrain is thinking of taking another stab at the Q. I couldn't see it being Mongrain .. didn't he not just sign an extension with the Aigles Bleus?
