The Montreal Alouettes have signed general manager Danny Maciocia and head coach Jason Maas to two-year contract extensions. <\/p>\n
The move comes as the Alouettes have clinched a playoff home game and could secure their spot in the East Final this weekend. <\/p>\n
Maciocia and Maas are now signed through the 2029 and 2028 seasons respectively.<\/p>\n
Maciocia returned to the Alouettes as general manager in January of 2020. He named Maas head coach in December of 2023. Since joining forces in Montreal, Maciocia and Maas have led the Alouettes to a Grey Cup Championship in 2023 and 33 regular season victories over three seasons.<\/p>\n
In five years with Maciocia as general manager, the Als have never missed the postseason.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m thankful for the continued stability that Mr. Pierre Karl P\u00e9ladeau has brought to this organization. I\u2019m also grateful that he continues to place his trust in Jason and me,\u201d Maciocia said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to continuing to build a winning culture within the Alouettes organization alongside Coach Maas. Jason and I have worked together for many years, and I\u2019m thrilled that we\u2019ll continue to do so. His leadership in the locker room has been crucial to our success. He holds himself, our players, and our coaches accountable every single day, and he\u2019s a major reason why we\u2019ve achieved the level of success we have since his arrival.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maas has a 33-19-1 as head coach of the Alouettes. Earlier this season, the 49-year-old became just the sixth coach in franchise history to surpass the 30-win mark. He is just four victories away from tying Lew Hayman for fifth all-time.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t thank Mr. P\u00e9ladeau enough for his continued belief in what we\u2019re building,\u201d said Maas.<\/p>\n
\u201cA commitment to excellence starts at the top of any organization, and our owner, Mr. P\u00e9ladeau, is a great example of that. It\u2019s been a pleasure working with Danny again. We have a clear understanding of each other\u2019s expectations, and that\u2019s played a big role in our success over the past few seasons. I\u2019m proud of the culture we\u2019ve built together, and I look forward to continuing our work together for the foreseeable future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Montreal Alouettes have signed general manager Danny Maciocia and head coach Jason Maas to two-year contract extensions.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":227842,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437],"tags":[712,49,48,521,522,520,79863,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-227841","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cfl","8":"tag-apple-news","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-canadian-football-league","12":"tag-canadianfootballleague","13":"tag-cfl","14":"tag-montreal-alouettes-sports-football-team-team-genius-sports-86680","15":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227841","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=227841"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/227841\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/227842"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=227841"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=227841"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=227841"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
