After officially announcing the hirings of Martin St. Louis and Vincent Lecavalier, it seems that two other former Lightning could possibly join the Montreal Canadiens' organization.

First, there is the name of Brad Richards circulating, so much that the question was directly asked to Vincent Lecavalier at a press conference. His answer spoke volumes:

Asked about the possibility of Brad Richards joining the CH too, Lecavalier laughs. Well, Richards refused an interview request this morning - L_A_theRiver, TVA Sports

And then, as The Hockey Writers observers reports, there's also a lot of speculation right now that the Habs are seriously considering adding the former Lightning goaltender, Nikolai Khabibulin, to the leadership group as well.

Everything indicates that he would be linked to the group of goalie coaches. (possibly the new goalie coach)

A Russian goalie coach, who was the idol of a certain Ilya Samsonov, it fits perfectly with the big rumor of the day. (DETAILS OF THE RUMOR HERE)

«There is also speculation that the Canadians are considering Nikolai Khabibulin for the staff as well. It would likely be that he's connected to the goaltending staff, perhaps as the Habs' new goalie coach." - The Hockey Writers
