I also believe that he and Gainey see eye to eye on a lot of hockey matters. I think it will take a move by ownership to uproot JM, and that will be in the form of replacing Gainey. Thus, the conclusion would be another two to three years of Bob and Jacques hockey.<br /><br />(note that, while I cannot remember the source, I do recall JM saying the media gave him a bad rap on being too defensive, i.e. they are not "the flypaper Frenchmen".)sopermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08144548132261100149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596529243084293616.post-47378901953560153802010-02-04T00:11:17.526-05:002010-02-04T00:11:17.526-05:00I was listening to Guy Boucher talk before the Bul...I was listening to Guy Boucher talk before the Bulldogs game the other day... Man, I really hope Martin was listening. He's just so insightful and amazing, like a textbook on how to be awesome and successful in hockey.<br /><br />Another weird thing about Martin is whenever he says "we need to be aggressive and attack etc" they come out and play defensive and passive, but when he says "we need to defend" they come out like gangbusters. I wonder if it's a trick lol...Number31https://www.blogger.com/profile/04754429306690847476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596529243084293616.post-17167524488683763762010-02-03T21:48:12.721-05:002010-02-03T21:48:12.721-05:0031,

I know he has to meet certain "criteria" for this stupid province but maybe as you said, Martin said the right buzz words to land him the job. One thing is for sure, Martin's eyes were watery the night they introduced him as the Hab's coach on the opening night at the Bell Centre. A dream job for sure, and he may re-adjust his sails.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735279658733440946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596529243084293616.post-82997596620986469872010-02-03T21:29:03.536-05:002010-02-03T21:29:03.536-05:00Ugh...facepalm. When I heard Martin talk like that...Ugh...facepalm. When I heard Martin talk like that I wanted to punch him...<br /><br />Other games this season played like the one last night:<br />- Columbus game<br />- Detroit game once the team woke up<br />- Centennial game<br />- 1st Washington one<br />- 2nd Ottawa one<br />- Part of the Dallas one<br />- Carolina game before Christmas<br />- Florida game during Christmas<br />- 1st and 3rd Rangers game<br /><br />Just to name a few.<br /><br />What do they have in common? They're all WINS and have 3 or more goals in the game.<br /><br />Guy Boucher > Jacques MartinNumber31https://www.blogger.com/profile/04754429306690847476noreply@blogger.com
