Expect the unexpectorated.

Someone should try to pin down the Mini-Me Country Club that he designed for Laval. That Sylvain Lefebvre appointment is so good that you couldn't have made it up.

Ya GP, I'm sure they're all happy with losing in the first round. If you actually believe this it would explain 70% of your posts

Compared to the Hawks management and fans? Yeah they seemed satisfied, he said that we had a good season. Just shows that other teams want to win more.

Are people forgetting that Bergevin and the other Canadian GM's typically have a press conference/media gathering on July 1st or 2nd every summer? Ottawa had one yesterday and all they did was sign Nate freakin Thompson. Calgary had one too despite not really doing anything. Vancouver had one..

Are we really expecting some big news to be broken by Bergevin at 3pm today? When does this ever happen? :laugh:

While it's typical for every GM to hold a press conference on July 1st...am I wrong thinking that postponing it to July 2nd is an anomaly ?

Could very well be because he didn't feel comfortable meeting the press with Radulov and Markov still un-signed. It most probably is. But still...Bergevin is waiting for something, that's for sure. The magnitude of that 'something' is anybody's guess at this point.

Well there's nothing to be done if he can't agree with Markov and Radulov. Who else is left to sign? Marleau wont come here.

Signing a bunch of bottom 6 players just for the sake of being able to say i did something in a PC would be very very bad management and fire worthy.

Habs are not going to start the season with 10M+ of cap space.

That is a sure thing.

Price signed an 8 year deal.. probably got raped on cap hit to make sure he had something to announce today.

MB got himself some short term goodwill. And by the time it wears off, he won't be around to see it implode.

I agree. Wont make signing a bunch of bottom 6 players to 3 millions contract good management.

If we use the cap space we have on guys like Wideman, Stafford and Hudler MB will need to be fired before the next deadline.

Had a feeling it was coming . Now he can shield himself behind that and just say i dont talk about contracts regarding Radu and Marky , then add its hard to add a C .

10 more years of mediocre hockey.

Thank you very much Marc, they will make a movie about you one day, because you ****ing sucked so much.

Marc Bergevin's legacy as a Habs GM will be a total of 15 years where the team didnt accomplished anything and found the bottom of the standing due to Bergevin's incompetence.

That's MB we're talking about.
The guy seems to value quantity over quality. What you describe may sadly happen.

MB is the Therrien of GMS.

:laugh:

Glad the league has gotten interesting the last few years. With the young stars. Emergence of Oilers and Flames rivalry coming back. Sid and Pens repeating. Connor. .............. because todays Habs bore the hell out of this life long fan.

Hoping for a Pens three-peat :yo:
