Alouettes,General Manager,Ownership Change

Alouettes general manager Danny Maciocia is experiencing success and improved personal life after the team's ownership change.

The 56-year-old Maciocia took over as Alouettes general manager in 2020 and worked under a precarious ownership situation until Québécois billionaire Pierre Karl Péladeau bought the team from the CFL in March, saving it from the risk of going defunct.

"It’s interesting when you can get some quality hours of sleep in, how productive you can be when you wake up the next day and you go into work,” Maciocia said Tuesday at Olympic Park. “It's even better than I anticipated, even better than I expected. "I would say that I'm a little bit more approachable, a little bit more engaging, a little bit more sociable,” he said. “Before, I had what I called a 20-minute window when I would get home, you had 20 minutes to get it all in because I was going to bed.Despite the new-found stability under Péladeau, much of the damage had already been done before he took over.

But by the time things had settled and the Alouettes were well into training camp, Maciocia was impressed with some signings — receivers Austin Mack and Tyler Snead, to name a couple — and the work of new head coach Jason Maas, who he hired in December.
