The Allaire name in hockey is one of the biggest in terms of coaching, particularly among goaltenders.
Francois Allaire, the elder of the two brothers, has been in the game for over 32 years.
He’s been behind the bench in the NHL since 1985, winning three Stanley Cups - twice with the Montreal Canadiens and once with the Anaheim Ducks - and helping shape countless netminders during his tenure. That, of course, comes with the Calder Cup he won in 1985 just prior to making the jump to the NHL, helping lead the Sherbrooke Canadiens to a championship in his first year behind the pro bench.
