Habs staff will have a lot questions to answer today. Yesterday was all Quantity over Quality.

Yesterday ended up being mostly about improving the farm club, which was necessary.

someone really needs to tell Bergevin activity isn't achievement

 

[BLONG7]

He should have some answers by then, on Radulov especially....will he also have new deals for Chucky and Price to announce??

Bergevin never tells the truth.

 

[zx81]

I have the feeling that it will be delayed to 4 p.m. And then 5 p.m.

 

[habtastic]

Biggest questions: how tight will the shirt be?

 

[MXD]

I litterally don't know why anyone bothers with these.

Why get someone else, you tell him, let yourself be heard

 

[ClasslessGuy]

You can't trade for a first line center, don't want to mortgage the future blabla la...

Here you go saved you an hour

 

[BLONG7]

Bergevin never tells the truth.

This is true...you have to wonder why the media even bother showing up??

 

[Lions999]

I guess he's done already.

 

[HuGo Sham]

absolutely not interrupting a glorious Sunday for this, so here's a recap 3 1/2 hours early:
trades are hard
trading for good C's is hard
i like our team
we'll keep working to make it better
you can't overspend for free agents
we have carey price
we'll try drouin at center
i still have a few months to tweak lineup

 

[crazyd]

This only means that MTL has made final offer to Rads and that he is on a deadline.

 

[Clearedwaivers]

He's probably announcing a new line of suits.

 

[Skip Bayless]

I genuinely wonder what he'll be wearing today.

 

[void]

He'll probably announce the Radulov, Price, and Galchenyuk signings at the start of it. Otherwise it makes no sense to hold a press conference for what he did yesterday.

 

[Uncle Gary]

There better be a couple more deals to announce before then.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

I genuinely wonder what he'll be wearing today.

He's already done his cosplay of the Joker, so my guess is:

 

[NobleSix]

I genuinely wonder what he'll be wearing today.

tight as **** golf shirt

 

[FireBurningBin]

He'll probably announce the Radulov, Price, and Galchenyuk signings at the start of it. Otherwise it makes no sense to hold a press conference for what he did yesterday.

I'd imagine that if Radulov was already committed we'd hear from Dallas sources that they were out of the running.

 

[OldCraig71]

I genuinely wonder what he'll be wearing today.

Polo Shirt and pants, golf course look.

The Habs have a lot of cap space right now.

Should Markov and/or Radulov not re-up he has tons of space to take advantage of a team that doesn't have cap luxuries. Such as the Capitals or Oilers. Bergevin has put himself in a situation where he can take advantage of their situations, problem is he can't force the trade to happen today to appease all you impatient fans. There is a GM on the other side who is managing his cap and trying to figure out whom could be made available.

Could you imagine if Caps decide to put Backstrom on the block to free up cap space for Kuznetsov? Or vice versa? They have great centers but lots of money tied up to OV already. Can't have it all unless the players take massive pay cuts to stay on Caps.

Oil are about to give McDavid 13M and upwards of 9M to Drai. 6M for RNH doesn't work for them anymore.

There are options out there. O'Reilly, Eichel and Reinhart in buffalo is a log jam too.
