Info | Richard Martel holds two degrees from Université du Québec à Chicoutimi – one in teaching, and the other in physical education. Richard was a Head Coach and Managing Director in the Québec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) for 18 years. He also coached professional hockey teams in Europe, and in the North-American Hockey League where he won the championship with the Jonquière Marquis. He remains the Commissioner of that League.
Proudly from Chicoutimi, Richard twice won the Ron Lapointe trophy awarded to the Coach of the year in the QMJHL – first in 1993-1994, as a rookie coach for the Saint-Hyacinthe Laser, then in 2004-2005, when he was coaching the Chicoutimi Saguenéens. Still today, Richard is the winningest coach in QMJHL history, with 589 wins. His 1,171 games as a coach are still an unequalled record to this day. For 11 years behind the bench of the Chicoutimi Saguenéens, Martel filled the hearts of the fans gathered at the Georges-Vézina Centre.
