PWHL Montreal coach Cheverie adjusting to the city, and its language
Kori Cheverie is embracing the culture and the cuisine of her new home. Montreal's Professional Women's Hockey League coach also wants to get comfortable with the language, but knows she has her work cut out for her.
General manager Daniele Sauvageau gave her hire some friendly ribbing at the team's press conference to open training camp Wednesday ahead of the league's inaugural season.
Sauvageau, speaking in French, joked that it's up to Cheverie to make sure the offensive team she's built plays with structure.
She then switched to English, turned to Cheverie and said, "Did you understand that?"
"Most of it," said Cheverie, with a smile, as laughs went around the room.
