    Dominique Ducharme was promoted to the role of interim head coach of the Montreal Canadiens on February 24, 2021 after serving as an assistant coach for two seasons. Having joined the Canadiens' coaching staff on April 27, 2018, Ducharme previously spent 10 seasons coaching in the QMJHL, including the last seven, from 2011 to 2018, as head coach with the Halifax Mooseheads (2011-16) and the Drummondville Voltigeurs (2016-18). Following the 2017-18 season, he was awarded the Paul Dumont trophy as the league's Personality of the Year.


    At the helm of the Halifax Mooseheads from 2011 to 2018, Ducharme posted a record of 255-158-37 in 450 games. In 2012-13 his team led the CHL with a record of 58-6-3-1, earning him the Ron Lapointe Award as the QMJHL's Coach of the Year. In the playoffs, the Joliette native had a record of 49 wins and 29 losses and also captured the Memorial Cup in 2013. On the international stage, Ducharme was an assistant with the Canadian squad at the 2011 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge, and again for the Canada Under-18 National Team at the 2013 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament. He was Canada's Head Coach at the 2017 and 2018 World Junior Championship successively winning silver and gold.

    So next, the question is.......is do you usually lose your future bets so we can know whether or not to fade?

    Do whatever you want to do, in the end it’s your money. I only care about winning for myself, I just wanted to get some conversation going and share my thoughts about a team I feel like is still not getting attention

    it's hard for me to forget those two really nasty losing streaks the Habs went on in the regular season, mind you this was against very poor competition as well

    if you bet MTL to reach the Final, but not win it all, you think they lose to who in the Final?

    They have to beat Vegas or Colorado.

    Miracles can happen but I'd give Montreal about a 1% chance to beat either.

    Honestly I didn’t have a good read on that side. Felt Tampa was strong at the the time I made the bet I just wasn’t confident enough to do anything with it

    That percentage is wild. Some may say the wild and St. Louis weren’t real playoff teams using your thought process. This is hockey upsets happen all the time. If you look back over probably the last five years I’ve been almost spot on on many of my nhl playoff predictions.
    The Canadiens have been playing great defense and Price has been playing so well. Goalies can steal games when they play like that.

    Vegas getting shown who really is the best team out of that side. Grinders and defense always beats high flying offense offensive teams in the playoffs. Fleury doing Pittsburgh fleury type performance. This is the guy I watched for years who has mental breakdowns when it matters
