GDT: Locker cleanup and Final Season interviews: Bergvein Press Conference at 4:00pm EST

[Jethlan]

Now that Belial no longer frequents this board, I will venture to say no.

Why ? What happened ?

 

[The Nightman]

Missed the press conference. Can anyone make a compedium of the dumbest things he said ?

Now, I realize some might simply post his transcript, but I want the cream of the crop of his dumbassery.

I might upload a few clips to streamable, as I've done the past couple of years. They can come in handy sometimes.

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

We have none, it's a pressing issue and he knows it! What he tells the press and what he thinks is 2 different things.

I'll give you credit, you really stand by your man. You seem to deal well with logic, yet logic dictates that MB is terrible at his job and you still defend him. I don't understand what you see in him.

 

[NotProkofievian]

We have none, it's a pressing issue and he knows it! What he tells the press and what he thinks is 2 different things.

Shaka, when the walls fell.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

"The guys [number one centers] have been moved, though..."

"OH MY GOD"

Pierre didn't want to hear any of that lmfao

 

[Andrei79]

I might upload a few clips to streamable, as I've done the past couple of years. They can come in handy sometimes.

Thanks man. I'm guessing you'll post them in the MB thread ? Mods should sticky the clips for eternum.

 

[NobleSix]

Why ? What happened ?

Pulled a Max Pacioretty and disappeared into thin air after the regular season ended.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

We have none, it's a pressing issue and he knows it! What he tells the press and what he thinks is 2 different things.

Marc Bergevin, we know it's you...

 

[Runner77]

- And most importantly, by making such statement, Bergevin would provide an emotional satisfaction to people on hockey message boards across the world, proving that he is in fact a competent hockey executive and not a moron.

People on message boards are not likely to be season ticket holders, I doubt Bergevin cares about them all that much. They might be attending Racket games in the fall, though.

 

[Toene]

No, no it's not jaffy.

It's been 5 years and he has not gotten it done. He hasn't used a top 60 pick on a center since 2012, where he was on the job for barely two months.

He truly believes this and all his conferences, conversations, actions, trades, signings, etc. lead this to be true.

If it walks, quacks and talks like a duck. It's a goddamn duck. If you think the Duck thinks anything different than its words, behaviours and actions, you're dreaming.

Not that I disagree with the essence of your message but... McCarron and DLR were drafted in 2013.

 

[The Nightman]

Now that Belial no longer frequents this board, I will venture to say no.

There are a couple using new accounts to hide themselves now, easy to pick out too when you look at join dates.

Thanks man. I'm guessing you'll post them in the MB thread ? Mods should sticky the clips for eternum.

Either this thread or the Berg one, I'll try to choose a few of the best quotes from him.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Not that I disagree with the essence of your message but... McCarron and DLR were drafted in 2013.

Big Mac was a RW when he was drafted and projects to be a winger at the NHL level. It was his junior team that moved him.

Also, DLR was always a winger. He has played spot duty at center, but again, projects as a winger at the NHL level.

 

[BLONG7]

It's been this way for 5 years, it won't suddenly change this summer.

He is a spin doctor, and very much cares what everyone thinks, but wants to let on he is not panicking...everyone in the world knows we need a number one centre!! He at least admitted, he has to get creative..................

Giddy up Marc!!

 

[jaffy27]

Because video and audio evidence of Bergevin being a ****ing idiot is always good to have when people try to dull themselves to this fact.

Time well wasted......watching video to fuel your hatred sounds like something some posters here would embrace doing. I got that right after picking ones nose in the "I have no life so I do this" list.

 

[TCIH]

The only thing worse than failing as a GM is failing and then staying the course. Management isn't fighting to win the Stanley cup, it's fighting to make the second round.

The Montreal Canadiens deserve better, even if it takes short term pain to get there. Don't settle for mediocrity.

 

[Andrei79]

People on message boards are not likely to be season ticket holders, I doubt Bergevin cares about them all that much. They might be attending Racket games in the fall, though.

Serious question, but are you joking ? There are plenty of message board fans who are season ticket holders.

 

[ECWHSWI]

or have a good laugh, you know...

something around FUN or something.

 

[Darkstorm]

The guy has no idea what he's saying. Plekanec had a bad year this season? He was a no show ever since he signed that 2 year contract. Did he say that Toews is a number 1 Centre not by points but by definition? Clearly that moron has no clue.

 

[Archijerej]

He's the one who said, over and over, that you don't need a number 1 C to win. He's the one that brought it up.

You speak as if his nonsense is actually fooling potential UFAs.

"Did you hear? They don't need a number 1 C! They're on the right track IMO!"

He is saying that, because it's the only sensible thing to do, when you don't have a true #1 C.

 

[Frank Drebin]

And theyre just as good as us, with our home run Price draft.

Like I said, nothing to aspire to

 

[NobleSix]

There are a couple using new accounts to hide themselves now, easy to pick out too when you look at join dates.

yep. I have my suspicions.

 

[jaffy27]

Marc Bergevin, we know it's you...

Hey, thought we had a deal, I wasn't gonna mention you were Roch Voisine if you kept my secret....

 

[Legend123]

if you guys really thought he was gonna blow up the team, you were delusional. Hes not gonna admit to his mistakes, in fact, no one ever will. Hes just gonna escalate to his mistakes, kinda like a sunk cost. The only chance of a rebuild is by firing him. Wake the **** up Mouslon, stop selling beer.
We can go thru a quick rebuild by trading 2 to 3 major pieces. Weber Price and someone else

 

[M.C.G. 31]

We know we're in trouble, Pierre, we know.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Pierre McGuire laying out facts on 690 mentioning all those teams on the rise.

dark days ahead for this franchise
