Press Conference at 7, before the game

Giontatas · 10-26-2011, 05:18 PM

Howdy folks,

Wasn't sure if it was already mentioned that PG will be holding a PC at 7, just prior to the game.

I was wondering if there would be anyone who wouldn't mind jotting down the highlights of the conference in this thread for those of us that won't be there to listen?

Thanks a lot

I wouldn't be too surprised if it was just to brush over the details of Pearn's canning.

Fel 96 · 10-26-2011, 05:23 PM

Something is telling me he will told to the media what's Pearn's new job with the team.

Haha that's rich. Very plausible actually. The Randys are the sole 2 new assistants, Pearn gets promoted after 2 years and we show the media/fans that we ARE doing something about the horrible results. ****ing brilliant!

Somehow this made me laugh

I can see PG and Martin laughing and high fiving as they announce Pearn was sacked.

hes gonna tell everyone he ate his first hamburger today

The wishful thinker in me is hoping for Martin to be gone before the game.

And who would coach? They'll lower Roy from the rafters with a huge puff of smoke and cheerleaders dansing?

Well, it's highly unlikely.

Not gonna happen.

Cue, the Bob Hartley rumours...

Then again, Pearn getting fired this late in the day despite taking part in the morning skate would've been viewed as unlikely too...

For the love of sacred poutine, please, PLEASE let Gauthier step down seconds after giving JM the finger and the boot!! PLEASE!!!

Jabba11 · 10-26-2011, 05:30 PM

It's to say that he has traded our 1st round pick to Calgary for Rene Bourque. He adds size and offense to our team. Hopefully he will get our team back on track...NOT.

If Hartley is even hired, I will join the tank wagon and the fire Hartley bandwagon all in the same day.

Martin get Fired and Gauthier will coach the team

The Habs can't really be calling a PC to announce the firing of an assistant coach can they?

They've already announced it via a press release.

Giontatas · 10-26-2011, 05:36 PM

Anyone else find this firing a little insulting to the fans?

Change is one thing. Scapegoating Pearn as the issue for our teams shortcomings is not the answer.

Sure, he may not be any kirk muller - but he isn't the one calling all the shots.

Nope.

HOPE4HABS · 10-26-2011, 05:40 PM

What are the chances that Muller's coming back? ooohh that would be nice.

So the PC must be about something else then.. Just watch it be a vote of confidence to his buddy JM and that he won't be fired..

As player coach. They will also announce in the presser that Gionta has been relegated to the Hamilton Bulldogs, and Gainey will name himself captain. Gauthier will then re-sign Laraque so he can join Darche on the first line.

Agreed. It's an anti-move.
