Per The Globe and Mail Patrick Roy will be taking over as coach of les Habs next year, maybe..

Here's our two cents worth on the subject: Roy ticks all the boxes for the Habs, he's a bilingual Francophone, he's an adored alumnus, he's a living link to the last Cup conquest, he's done good things in junior, with gusts to great. But he's also got maybe the shortest fuse in the history of coaching, and it's debatable that his tempest-in-a-suit-jacket act will translate well to the pros.


but...

It would arguably make more sense to hand Roy the keys to the organization by making him vice-president of hockey operations or general-manager, a role he has thrived in for the Remparts

I think Roy is vastly overrated as a coach in the Q and I don't think he's close enough to sane to coach an NHL team... Naturally, I could see Montreal picking him up.
