only one coach can bring back the winning tradition,intensity, and legitimacy to this rich franchise…and he’s only 2hrs up the road….it’ s time for St- Patrick to come home.

They really ought to lose the Anglophobia up there.

Most importnatly, he speaks french. I am not trying to be funny, but that has always been a must for a Habs coach since I have been alive.

Good now maybe next time they’ll let Perry Pearn be the head coach and Martin can play second banana.

Soon, they’ll be looking to do the same with Kaberle.

Agreed, very little talent on this team. They will surely hire another marginal coach who speaks French.

I LOVE the idea of Bob Hartley being back behind an NHL bench- he got hosed over in Colorado (fired from a team over .500?), and didn’t have much to work with in Atlanta. Sad that he’d be in Montreal, prompting me to immediately declare him evil and subhuman, but that’s how it goes.

My one problem with it- that stint in Atlanta was a good while back, wasn’t it? That’s a long time between head coaching jobs in the NHL (I know he’s coaching elsewhere right now, but still).

“All the talent”? Seriously? Outside of Cammalieri, Price and MAYBE Subban, they stink.
