The Montreal Canadiens have had Vincent Lecavalier in their front office for years, and now he might be preparing to join the coaching staff alongside Martin St. Louis.
Lecavalier and St. Louis were teammates in Tampa Bay, and it looks like they could team up again. Reports indicate that Lecavalier is interested in coaching, and the Canadiens are considering adding him to help develop their young power play.
«There are whispers that he could even join the bench with his longtime friend, Martin St. Louis, to replace Alex Burrows as an assistant.» - RDT
While it's not confirmed whether an official offer has been made, Lecavalier still lives in Florida. However, coaching a talented group that includes Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield could be an exciting opportunity for him.
«It will be interesting to see what Vincent Lecavalier's role eventually becomes with the Habs.» - Stu Cowan, Montreal Gazette
Although the team may not be Stanley Cup contenders yet, bringing Lecavalier on board could provide a significant boost and help them become a serious threat in the Eastern Conference in the future.
