It was a day of judgment for the Canadian on that beautiful Friday at Brossard and the club’s management, Messrs. Kent Hughes and Messrs Jeff Gorton, brought a message of hope to the fans: the Canadian would have some things in common with the New York Rangers.
A realistic message? This statement is anything but unanimous among our guests…
Would the Canadian have been worse this season if everyone had been healthy? Richard Labbé says yes, Stéphane Waite says no! At the end of this first full season at the helm, what assessment can we give Martin St-Louis? And there will be new faces in September, as well as departures…including predictably that of Jonathan Drouin.
In closing, while praising Jonathan Toews’ career and still wondering why the Pittsburgh Penguins even considered hiring Ron Hextall…

With the Canadian, we will take action to improve faster than we think. Everyone is perfectly aware that it cannot last too long.
Richard Labbe
We’re already better than we think, I’ll give the same speech as at the beginning of the season, this team isn’t worse than we think.
Stephane Waite
He’s a sponge, he learns quickly. If he makes a mistake, he turns around quickly. It brings up some interesting concepts. You can see that he is someone who reads a lot, who listens to management videos, and it shows. He thinks a lot about what a coach should be. Where there is room for improvement, the Canadian has had mega lethargy five times in two years.
Alexander Pratt
This morning, Richard, you said that despite the injuries, the Canadians couldn’t have done better. The accused first, I’ll let you explain. I don’t agree with you there.
Jeremy Rainville
We had a little mirage at the beginning of the season. Everyone played better than expected. I hear, ah! if Sean Monahan had played all year. Wait a minute, Monahan wouldn’t have done that in 82 games. Eventually, the natural would have come back at a gallop. The Canadian would not have finished 28thebut what, 22e ?
Richard Labbe
Completely disagree!
