In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord ServerI heard him as well.
He also said that we can 'build a cup' around our current crop of prospects from the last 2 drafts. The same prospects that havn't played a game in the NHL and are sitting in last in the AHL sporting a 4 game losing streak.
Renaud Lavoie is one of the worst Montreal sports journalists, in my opinion.
Shows how much of a liar Wilde is..
Grant Mckegg(sp), former habs scout who posts on here, said it was one of the scouts that pushed Timmins on Fischer.
Gauthier helped this team reach heights this team never was able to reach before. He should be tanked for Galchenyuk since we don't likely get #3 pick in a draft without him.
He should be thanked for a lot of things, Bergevin will be enjoying his moves for years and will probably get the credit for them aswell. Instead he is the goat and constantly blamed for the meanderings of his ex boss.
Corrected. Doesn't help that I HATE people who answer their phones/text while on TV... he shows no professionalism at all.
In fact, I'm starting to REALLY dislike the whole RDS crew. As much as I was against TVA sports... I'm thinking of switching my subscription if hockey doesn't come back. The 2 clowns on the "5 Ã 7" are a disgrace to TV.
For what it's worth, I have a lot of respect for Brian Wilde and if he said that (I didn't hear him say it), it's because he had a reason to say it. There are always two sides to a story...
I heard him as well.

In what universe are they on a 4 game losing streak? And you're upset that players drafted 2 years ago didn't play in the NHL their first year after being drafted? I'm not as high on our prospects as most, but your standards might be a bit skewed..

Well that sure is different from the OP...I heard him too. He did not said this actually happened it was more of a rhetorical exercise. Something like "imagine that could have happened".
He was angry at Gauthier and he did say that Bergevin gave Timmins total freedom - the "Dman vs Giroux" was just a figure of speech, an example.
The recording should be available somewhere on their site.
You do know he works for RDS, which is basically the french version of TSN...
This. Gauthier did a few mistakes but did alot of good things also. There's no black or white in hockey, everyone makes mistakes and hits homeruns. You guys need to stop living in the past, what was done in 2006 is irrelevant since so much was done since then. You just can't say ''add Giroux to this line up and imagine how good we'd be'' because if you add Giroux, maybe Carbo isn't fired yet, maybe we do not draft MaxPac, we certainly can't draft gally. Deal with it seriously lol.
Lavoie? You mean the guy that takes TSN reports, translates them into french, and puts his name next to them?
You are way off base. I don't like him but I can admit he's an excellent reporter.
And he's usually the first guy with info on twitter.
Gauthier left Anaheim the same way he left Montréal. Let's hope Bergevin can win a cup like Burke did. It sucks we didn't draft Giroux, but you can't think like that in life. We wouldn't have Galchenyuk then.
Who got the news first is irrelevant.
They all, here and there, copy a tweet from someone else and it is ok since they dont necessarily have the same followers.
AFAIAC Renaud Lavoie is one of the most credible sport newspaperman in the Q medias.
Sorry to burst your bubble but according to a certain former NHL player, you are so far off reality it isn't even funny.
Well the current NHL players seem to like him, he keep kissing their butts.![]()
