Marc Bergevin: Ch't'un Fighter Edition

[cphabs]

Galchenyuk for Micheal Ferland and Kris Versteeg.

He has been trying to get Versteeg for like 4 years.

LMFAO Thank You!

Please stop the fight.

That was last night, right? He will surely be back for da big game tonight...

Bet you the coward chickens out. No way does he watch that game live. He is too much of a chicken shit to face the mistake that will define his career. His ego can't take it.

He isn't looking at the Rangers at all. Flames have scouts for Montreal and Nashville. Something could definitely be cooking between Montreal and Calgary.

Nah we get this every single year towards TDL.
The build-up and speculation is far more entertaining than the deadline itself.

Scouts are all over the place at this point.

 

[Rapala]

Shaw is absolutely horrible fit for the habs.
Hes a depth forward for a team that actually has offense

I'm still trying to figure out his role on this team.

 

[Rapala]

What makes Shaw better than Eller.

Absolutely nothing...

I hate to say it, but I am certain he will be with us to start next season.

Hopefully I am wrong and I think it will depend on what happens at the TDL. If there are almost no moves, other than the obvious one with Plekanec, it may be possible ownership restricted Bergevin’s power.

Even then, that won’t say much. I think he only gets fired for certain if he does something like trading Galchenyuk for a pending-UFA like Nash, keeping Plekanec and boldly claim we are going for it.

Even if he ends up staying another year, his minions need a performance review and be replaced accordingly. How can they all have jobs 6 years into this.

 

[Runner77]

Hey - I'm also in NYC. Sitting in a Starbucks on 86th and Columbus right now. Should call Bergevin to go for a latte.

And thus, the story of MB working the phones the most will carry on.

If it's about a latte at Starbucks, it's more likely to be a story about working the foam.

 

[Runner77]

Eller gets 5 year extension in DC. I don't like the contract and MB made a good move getting rid of him but to bring in shawzy, lmao

I liked the Eller trade in isolation. But no, he had to give in to his Chicago nostalgia and overpay and overterm a player they didn't need. And who is concussion prone.

Nice one.

Well he needs for a new management role. Maybe he can manage the Habs restaurant?

 

[Steve Shutt]

In Bergevin's defense, I thought he did well at the trade deadline last time the Habs were out of it in 2016.

Dale Weise & Tomas Fleischmann
for
Philip Danault & 2018 2nd round pick

If he can pull off a couple more moves like this, I would be content

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Please stop the fight.

Hahahahaha

 

[pepperMonkey]

The return of the prodigious son. We need a 1st line center for the next season ...

You do know he would be our best C (Chucky doesn't count as he will never play C again while MB is still here) offensively if he comes back? Yeah, we suck that much...

 

[pepperMonkey]

It's Dubaya and Trump wrapped into an unbeatable duo of incompetence.


.... Yup.. im also out of ideas.

It's just so ridiculous at this point.

Hey! No need to insult Bush! At least he knows he's not the smartest and actually listens to his advisors.

 

[tazsub3]

Go for it!! Please, do not buy any purple pants while in the Big Apple.
If you do get him, please feel free to bring up, his disasterous summer of 2017

Now imagine the statement he would make by buying purple pants with apple on them !!! Take that stanley cup winner.... you have the cup we would have the style

 

[Adam Michaels]

He'll be their coffee expert. Marc Baristavin.

 

[badi]

Only in MTL and Ottawa were they keep 2 amateurs to run their team

 

[Runner77]

He's already performing management duties, at his other job on weekends ...

The problem is not moves like these in isolation.

The problem is when all he does is moves like these and you end up with a team full of Danaults and Shaws.

Please stop the fight.

Great shoop.

 

[waffledave]

Great shoop.

A certain someone might be upset as he doesn't like seeing Bergevin get beat up.

He also probably doesn't think this shoop does MB's shoulders much justice.
