The three players who complained about Cassidy coaching style at exit meetings.
( based on what has been written, reading between the lines )
1. debrusk
2. carlo
3. frederic
Bergeron was definitely a cassidy supporter, as well as a Montgomery supporter, as well
as a claude Julien supporter. So anyone questioning bergeron's character is way off base.

So maybe Bergeron was not the ring leader in wanting him gone
I always thought the disconnect was with the younger players on the team and not the core at the time, Marchand, Bergeron, Pastrnak, and McAvoy? Can probably add Krejci and Backes to that list of players not in favor of Cassidy.

When did Feddy complain?

I know the other two crybabies did.

Didn't pick up on Carlo complaining, but judging from what I've personally seen from him in off ice events he never seems happy so not surprised

If this is true, it’s like hearing there’s no Santa Claus for the first time.

We most likely will know by the draft if bergeron is retiring or will be back.
He will let Sweeney know for sure,
Based on the moves sweeney makes in the next couple of weeks ,we will have
some indication on which way the organization is heading.
a) with bergeron back or
b) without bergeron back

Got some inside dope?

Because you don’t fire your coach on the complaints of just those three players.

None that I can say in public. But look at what DKH has posted about the subject, his info is practically verbatim of what I heard.

Yeah, I think people are grabbing some stray comments (like from Carlo for example) and turning that into some sort of mutiny. Not really what happened, and some would be surprised at who was most vocal.

All coaches time eventually runs out. The voice gets old especially more in todays Hockey world than yesteryear. Its not just Bruce

Some run out faster than others. You never heard a single bad word about Claude, and you never heard a single good word about Bruce after each left. That speaks volumes.

it's certainly possible that cassidy can be a huge douche AND a great coach at the same time. so when bergy made the
comment about him winning a cup in vegas to stone, he was just being honest about a really good/deep team getting a good
coach in his first year with the team.
