GDT: Bergevin, Molson and Therrien meet the media at 4 PM
- Thread starter Marc the Habs Fan
- Start date

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

Renaud Lavoie indicated yesterday that all details concerning schedules/camp etc.. should be released today. Could this be the way it will be done ?
Finally some activity! Looking forward to it. I don't expect anything earth-shattering, but I'm happy nonetheless we're hearing the staff and owners talk about the upcoming season.
Probably to announce Gomez's buyout.
I expect spountaneous demonstrations of joy to erupt troughtout the province.

Molson will say that he will give away 21 000 free tickets for the 1st game of the season and 100 authentic jerseys of Alex Galchenyuk #94 for the 1st 100 fans.
They can't use compliance buyouts yet, though. I guess they could use a good ol' regular buyout for him though.
There would be riots for those tickets. Not to mention scalpers getting some and selling them.
Here comes the apology to the fans and we hope you come back because you're the best fans in the world speech.
There were only certain times when you could even use the good ol' regular buyouts, though... the two weeks before July 1st and then later if you had an arbitration settlement. Both of those windows came and went before the last CBA expired. There probably isn't any reopening at all, even of the old fashioned buyout type, prior to this new season.
(And there needn't be, teams are being allowed to go ahead at the $70.2M cap max that was there at the end of last season, so they ought to have planned their rosters and executed their old-fashioned buyouts last summer based on that).
I hope he won't go overboard with the hyperbole but again, he can't come out and say "Ehhhh, we're ******".
I hope Molson will have some restrain on the hype and respect his fanbase's intelligence. His arena will be full no matter.
The im sorry for everything speech,talks about how the team will be better this year, Molson will hand the mic to Therrien he will talk for a bit about improvements he plans on making, Marc will go up and announce the signing of Subban and everyone will be some what satisfied, they will announce training camps and the start of the season on another note
This will be a welcome back meeting.
Molson will once again state he will spare NO expense to get the Habs back to the top ( buy outs + top spending caps ) and a carte blanche to MB to do any deal on earth. MT to get full power to rule the team as he sees fit.
Habs still need time to fix the sinking ship. not just plug the holes but to rebuild from the hull up. Timmons must get the Habs brand new engines MB needs 6 months to fix the contracts + money problems. MT needs 6 months to fix the on-ice effort every night.

Sounds about right. Let's just forward this to the media and cancel the useless press conference this afternoon.
-Habs cant talk to Subban yet so dont expect a signing
-Buyouts only start this summer so dont expect Gomez to get bought out
Molson will apologize to all fans for the Lockout,Marc Bergevin will answer the 100 journalists who will ask about subban's contract and Michel Therrien will be asked if Galchenyuk will start the season in Montreal.
Still exited that we're finally talking about Hockey and our Habs

Actually it's been confirmed that agents and GMs can talk but no contracts can be signed yet.
Drouin is probably going top 3 now... ok maybe top 4.
Probably just to talk about the schedule/camp. We got a memo at work from M. Molson talking about when we will get our season ticket etc. Will let you know if they send the calendar to the business first!
