"I remember a situation in New Jersey about two months into the season I was at rock bottom and thinking 'I need to get out of here, I want a different start in a new organization.' But Lou Lamoriello [Devils GM] and I talked and he expressed faith in me, and a few months later I was the MVP of the playoffs. A fresh start in another city wasn't what I needed at all. I needed to make some adjustments in my attitude and look at the team around me differently.
"Vancouver is one of the best organizations in the game; why would you want to go to another team? You have to look at your surroundings in the right way and I think Cody's definitely doing that."
That from Claude Lemieux, Cody Hodgson's personal "coach". Edit: I posted this because: 1. The kid has now worked with Gary Roberts and Lemieux. 2. Lemieux, despite all his dirtiness, is a proven winner. I like the concept of him working with Hodgson. 3. Is Gallagher hinting at further rift between the Canucks and Hodgson? I mean, Tony wouldn't do that would he?? You can read rift in the article, but don't forget that Lemieux was asked a certain question by Tony G and responded. 4. @#%ing media. Etc. Hope Hodgson kicks ass at camp. Glad he feels 100%.

What the hell?
An hour and this thread is not full of CoHo speculation? We’re slipping!
Oh, and I think the Lemieux hire for him is a great move

There’s all kinds of conspiracy to be had in that article heh? Jeeeesus. I like the move too. Lemieux was a dirty bitch player but he’d give a left nut for a Cup and played accordingly

Well
Thats just the way Tony writes. His trying to make a “thing” is kind of pitiful. I don’t think there would be anything to that. AV and MG probably welcome it. A guy that played as hard as Claude teaching CoHo the same thing?
Works for me.

Maybe because he is not a team coach, but a personal "coach"?
Just guessing for Sean though…

Because I quoted a Tony G article, and in that article Tony says
The Canucks coaches and management have held several conversations with the Hodgson camp — which now includes his personal coach Claude Lemieux, if you can call him that — and whether or not the club agrees 100 per cent with this new initiative and all it might one day involve, it certainly has the player stoked and ready to try to have his best training camp ever.
I’m just covering my ass here :)

Oh no!
Not Claude! He’s just going to teach Cody how to bite, cheap shot and play dirty! You know, fit in with the rest of the team
