Paul Byron on the verge of returning to the NHL and the Canadiens?

This failure has notably caused a stir in the Montreal media, questioning the future of Jean-François Houle with the organization. After all, the head coach's contract will expire this summer, and many observers wonder if Kent Hughes will want to make changes behind the bench by bringing in his own coach.

In this regard, while appearing on the podcast "The Sick Podcast With Tony Marinaro," the Rocket's game announcer, Anthony Marcotte, made a significant statement by indicating that he expected personnel changes to be made in the coming weeks.

Wow! That's big!

It raises the question of whether this potential change will only be motivated by the Rocket's non-participation in the playoffs. If that's the case, the last two games of the season may have been very costly for the coaching staff, as the Canadiens' management seemed rather satisfied with the work done by Jean-François Houle and company during the regular season.

Moreover, according to Anthony Marcotte's words, the Laval Rocket could potentially count on a former player of the Tricolore within its coaching staff next season. Indeed, he is convinced that Paul Byron, who is currently acting as a player development consultant, could well find himself behind the team's bench in 2024-2025.

Many fans of the Bleu-Blanc-Rouge would likely be very excited about the prospect of seeing Paul Byron behind the Rocket's bench. We remember how much he was appreciated by the public during his time with the organization, and it would be very pleasing to see him take on an even more significant role in developing the young prospects of the CH.
