The Canadian | “In the mix”… but what else?

(Laval-sur-le-Lac) Unless I am mistaken, the expression “être dans le mix”, used to designate the Canadiens’ objective in 2024-2025, appeared in the public space last spring.


According to our more or less exhaustive research, Geoff Molson was the first to suggest it, during an interview with TVA Sports shortly before the end of the last campaign. The club’s hockey management then took it up extensively, and the “mix” has now become common practice.

What, however, is meant by the “mix”? That’s less clear. General manager Kent Hughes candidly admitted Monday morning on the sidelines of the Canadiens’ annual golf tournament kicking off the season: “When you choose words, they can mean 10 different things to 10 different people!”
