The Canadiens announced a very interesting hiring in the last few hours. NHL veteran Fernando Pisani has joined the team's scouting staff. <img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/297757.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /> Pisani had some good times in the NHL, but health problems slowed him down considerably and retirement followed. There are several reasons why this hire is interesting. Pisani worked as a player development coach for the Oil Kings in the WHL. In particular, he worked with Kaiden Guhle. What's more, he's a former teammate of Francis Bouillon, who holds a similar position with the Canadiens today. So the links with the current team are there. <blockquote class=twitter-tweet><p lang=fr dir=ltr>He has some ties to members of the Montreal organization → <a href=https://t.co/De6yIISCUD>https://t.co/De6yIISCUD</a>- DansLesCoulisses (@DLCoulisses) <a href=https://twitter.com/DLCoulisses/status/1690514309934469120?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw>August 13, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js charset=utf-8>
