Speculation: Bergeron??

[HuGort]

Think he will come home and sign with Montreal this summer? Been a lot of chatter about it on radio in Montreal. Now that his agent is Habs GM.

I think Bergeron be good fit in Montreal. Especially if we get top 2 pick? A veteran for our pick(Wright or Savoie) to learn from. May help Suzuki also.

I doubt it.

Seems like a Bruins lifer.

Bergeron grew up a Nordiques fan who hated the Montreal Canadiens.

People also seem to underestimate how large Quebec is. Bergeron's hometown is a nearly three hour drive from Montreal. Joining the Canadiens would not be "coming home."

 

[BB88]

People really think Bergeron would leave Boston for Montreal?!?!

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Bergeron in a Montreal jersey would be more devastating than the 2019 game 7 in the finals.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Don’t see it happening

 

[waitin425]

Would love it.....but Montreal radio chatter is just the radio version of this website. Chatter

 

[burstnbloom]

There is a greater chance that Patrice Bergeron turns into a purple wish dragon and grants me 3 wishes than a Montreal Canadien.

 

[Captain97]

While I agree it's extremely unlikely it goes even beyond just his agent is the GM now but the EVP also drafted him.

But as many have said the odds are extremely unlikely especially since the Habs likely suck for atleast next year as well possibly the year after too.

 

[Jee]

Would love it just to see the Bruins fans turn on him

 

[Hookslide]

only thing worse was Orr in a Blackhawk jersey, this will not happen...............so lock this now

 

[domiwroze]

It could happen. His agent and good friend is now GM. The same guys that drafted him and gave him the opportunity to win a cup.

Having the chance to work with Suzuki and maybe Wright. That's some decent coaching skill point for a gig after retirement.
Also gives a chance for his family to be near him with the whole fiasco going on.
There's some valid arguments there.
I'd love Bergeron with Mtl, i'd also love seeing bruins fans melt in anger

 

[Rcknrollkillnmachine]

He hates the Habs and stated it in an interview.

He'll finish a Bruin either after this season or later down the line.

 

[BruinLVGA]

Yeah, Bergeron spends 18 seasons with Boston, finally becoming its captain too, just to turn around and go to the Habs, probably the biggest rivals of the team he spent 18 season with, and a team he grew up hating. Seems logical.

Now, if the Quebec Nordiques were coming back next season, I could maybe see a chance of that happening, but the Habs???? LMAO.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

I bet his parents would disown him.

Bolting to a rebuilding team at his age?

 

[FerrisRox]

If Bergeron leaves Boston - and I don't think he will - I suspect he would sign in Colorado.

I think the Montreal Canadiens would likely be the last team he would sign with.

In what world is their a chance?

 

[BergyWho37]

Nordiques Fan growing up .. Hates the Habs .. So Noo

Thought this was well known by now.

 

[Gabe Kupari]

Lol to lose for 5 years then retire?

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Bergy grew up a nordis fan no? I remember seeing him talk about disliking the Habs more then most bruins fans. Could be wrong, maybe a projection.

 

[nilan30]

Nope. I think Marc-Andre Bergeron is more likely to be a Hab next year then Patrice

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Lmao oh man. Ray Bourque 2.0

Gorton in Montreal also. Nords are long gone. Chance to play in home province for French Canadian fans going to be factor.
