Jacques Lemaire

I was a hockey coach guys.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

I remember when your parents tried to get me fired. That did not happen my friend.

I was still the coach.

[Mark Parrish @MarkDParrish]

I lasted 3. Larry lasted 1. Well done fellow Orono parents. Good luck getting another NHLer to coach. Hope i can find out who said it. I’ll tell them every game next year, “They just don’t have it as parents. I hope they can walk away and learn from it.”… https://t.co/7106kcPc6m

I would have told this guy “Don’t get caught”. Or just wait for Boogie to handle it. But some guys don’t listen to the coach. Which is what I was.

Jamie Benn shared his thoughts on his game misconduct in last nights’s game

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

@SKRudolph @ChrisLongKSTP @rstanzel I don’t listen to the TV when I watch. They don’t understand what it’s like to coach, and I was the coach, no doubt.
And I couldn’t find the game on @NBAonTNT I called Gaborik but he’s in Czechoslovakia. Which is in Europe, guys. I woke that guy up.
What was the question?

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

I didn’t think that was a good call guys. No doubt. But I am not a referee. So I don’t get to say about that. I was the coach. #hashtaghockeyrefereeingguys

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Sometimes you have to just stay up real late, guys. When I was the coach we tried to hold practices at 2am. But the NHLPA said no. Players are softer now, guys.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

No. You go get Bouch some Gatorade. We need good defense now.

[Mark Parrish @MarkDParrish]

How about now in 2OT? Need a goal now, coach? Can I please play? 🙏🏻

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Guys. We have enough goals now, guys. If I were in the room, I would say all you have to do now is stop those other guys from scoring. Before, you had to do that plus score. So now it’s easier. @MarkDParrish never understood that part of the game. He was tough to coach, guys.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

I didn’t even know you could go to college to learn hockey, guys.

I could have been a professsor. But I was the coach.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

That other guy sounded like he was imitating me. But I was the coach. I’m not a radio deejay. I think that the Falness guy was prancing me. But you can’t prank a coach.

[Kevin Falness @RadioFalness]

ICYMI here’s the conversation with @OurJacques and the other Jacques Lemaire talking @mnwild, #97, Gaborik, @Albert15800776, @NYIslanders and MORE from Tuesday @KFAN1003

I don’t like afternoon hockey, guys. This game is too crazy and out of control right when I normally take a nap. Naps are good, guys. I hope this game calms down.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

I feel like both these teams are taking way too many chances. Almost like when @MarkDParrish played. I would put all of them in the bench and make the goalies go one on one. No doubt.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Guys, it’s a fact that I used to be the coach of these two teams. But not at the same time. You can only coach one team at a time, guys. You can’t be in two locker rooms at the same time. Unless you’re a clone. And I’m not a clone. I’m a coach.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Guys. You can’t start hockey games this late. There’s a time for sleeping and a time for hockey. You can’t move the puck through the zone when you’re sleeping, guys.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Really exciting period tonight guys. But there’s too much shooting of the puck. When you shoot the puck you lose the puck. And you can’t move the puck through the zones without having the puck. Then you have to punch a guy. #punchaguy

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

That was an out of control period, guys. Bouch almost passed out from the crazy scoring.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

When you want to score you should shoot the puck. Or hope that it hits you and goes into the goal. But you have to move the puck through the zones first. That’s how you play the game of hockey which our guys aren’t doing now.

[Chilly @ChillyCorpse1]

@OurJacques Coach, when should the guys shoot?

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

The guys have been moving the puck through the zones. Through the defensive zone. Then moving through the neutral zone. Then they move it through the offensive zone. That’s hockey, guys.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Guys. I was the coach. And these coaches need to put the other two guys out there. You have to be able to do math when you’re the coach.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

The NHL considers that hooking now guys? C’mon guys. I mean c’mon now.

[Jacques Lemaire @OurJacques]

Too big of a lead for Detroit. Start the bus.
