Well I hope they choose the kid before mister Potato
they will
Claude's there to train Ducharme who was brought in when they realized Muller can barely handle Special teams competently
Ducharme and his rival/friend Joel Bouchard have a great relationship and were some of the early pieces brought in when MTL made changes in 2017.
Ducharme's Offense has unquestionably been the biggest bright spot in MTL since his hiring and Bouchard will be first choice to replace his as assistant coach for MTL
Claude has until December next year then they'll hope Ducharme can step up like Sullivan or Berube and win
i think that's part of the reason KK is best off in Laval right now getting familiar with being Bouchards favorite guy he goes to first for everything from PP and PK to top line match ups .
then when Bouchard runs our Offense he'll be getting all those same calls at the NHL level and more ice time for KK in the long term and short .
Claude was hired during a rebuild as we had just started moving out players and has 2 years left .
i think by next year MTL will just pay him the last year and a half to sit at home or let him interview in hopes another team takes him like Seattle
Ducharme's had more impact in a shorter time and only after he showed up did Muller's special teams start producing .
