Newmarket Coach

Wonder where he will go? Wonder who will take his place?

Everybody knew this was coming.

The question for Newmarket fans, what's the real story behind the parting?

Did BP want out, or is the owner a complete maroon? You just don't get rid of a guy who has consistantly put together one of the top programs in the province. Guys like Perrin just don't grow on trees.

Unless you got a guy like Jerome Dupont ready to step in, why bother to make this transaction? Even then, it would appear to be a lateral move.

So, where does BP land? Stouffville?????

And as for Jerome, I keep hearing that he is in infact going to stay in Hawkland. Surprised the hell out of me, but, maybe Dupont is gonna show us all up.

Anybody else got any juicy rumours?

Perrin wanted to stay despite VP constantly knifing him in the back in private and on this forum. Should be interesting is an understatement.
Things will go back to normal when the team is sold in two years once the owners son goes to University

One can only hope that the Newmarket ownership group really took the time to consider just what they were parting ways with here. When Mr. Perrin and his staff took over the reigns halfway through the 2006/07 season this team was in turmoil both on and off the ice. From there they managed a turnaround which saw an above .500 finish and a first round series victory and a damn near upset of the Aurora Tigers in the 2nd round (Aurora went on to win RBC that year). From there Mr. Perrin's staff had laid the framework for the success that the Hurricanes had in the seasons after. They re-established a great working relationship with the community and local minor hockey organizations in which the Ray Twinney complex saw more people in the seats on game nights. They had laid the framework which saw more local area talent (Newmarket and Upper York Region) in the line-up along with consistent 1st place finishes in the standings and a league title in the '09/10 campaign and a number of players who went on the NCAA D1 scholarships, the "O" and other better opportunities. Plain and simply put this staff overall achieved the best results that Newmarket had in the last 15 years. This will be a tough task for Hurricanes ownership and management to find somebody that can match or even exceed the overall results that Mr. Perrin and his staff had in their tenure.

As a Waxers fan I got to see a lot of the Hurricanes and although Perrin's teams do well during the season he's never been able to win when it counts. I thought he was outcoached during the Stoufville series on many occasions including last years series. Brian may be a good coach, but hasn't really won anything. The style of play he chose was not conducive for the players he had on the club and at times very boring to watch. Sometimes change is needed and word was that Perrin was on his way to Stoufville anyhow.

Perrin couldn't win the big won, he however did a great job with this organization. Going through two different owners and still keeping his job and on top of the division year in and out. Great job and good luck in Stoufville.

1) PERRIN TO STOUFFVILLE

and

2) DUPONT TO NEWMARKET


A natural for both organizations.

DUPONT Is Staying In TRENTON For At Least 1 More Season What Don't Some Of You Get About That ?

WE WILL SEE COME NEXT SEASON!!!!!

I would have to agree. JD going to Newmarket. Lives there and he can recruit the top players from nearby. Why would he want to drive all the way. JD will win with this group as along as he does it his way but, get your cheque book opened. The team will perform, the stands will be full, so it will be a win win for the team and the owner. He is one of the best in JR hockey.
