Sylvain Favreau: His name would be popular in Milwaukee in the American League

Karl Taylor is currently head coach of the Milwaukee Admirals and is the winningest coach in the organization’s history.

And he’s not going anywhere, by the way… unless an NHL team calls upon his services before the start of next season.

He signed a contract extension with the club just last week:

If Favreau is hired in Milwaukee, it would probably be as an assistant.

And that’s okay too.

He has head coaching experience in the QMJHL, but sometimes coaches have to move up to the next level by accepting a “lesser” role in order to advance in their careers.

By starting out as an assistant in the AHL, he’d still have the opportunity to prove himself… and if his work is recognized in the right way, there’s nothing to stop him finding a job as a head coach in the AHL – or even as an assistant in the NHL – at some point.

That’s interesting, at least. And if he’s hired by the Admirals, that would be one less candidate in the race for the head coach position in Laval that would be vacant if Pascal Vincent does indeed decide to leave.

Overtime

– Well-deserved!

– Reinforcement in Trois-Rivières.

– Well done.
