Foucault's college coach said:

“If he’s invited to the Panthers’ main camp, he’s forfeiting half his CFL salary,” Maciocia said. “But at his age ... these opportunities don’t come around every year. If he believes in himself and wants to invest that money in himself, I think it’s a great opportunity."

per the Montreal newspaper:

Foucault was born and raised in Montreal (the second largest primarily French-speaking city in the world, after Paris), played for the University of Montreal Carabins, but before he reports to training camp for the Montreal Alouettes, he is off to Charlotte, N.C., to try out for the Panthers

Foucault wasn’t selected in the NFL draft but he spent two months training in Florida, attended a regional NFL combine in Tampa and an NFL Super Regional Combine in Detroit.

he conducted interviews with six NFL teams -- Atlanta, Miami, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Minnesota and Cleveland. Two others, St. Louis and Indianapolis, called directly to his college coach

      Fire Rod

      I agree that roster construction is a bigger issue than Rod.  I don't know what coach behind the bench is winning this series.  We weren't even supposed to compete this year, but people are mad because we're getting swept in the ECF again.  If we lost in 7 last round people wouldn't feel that way.

      And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot

      I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
