He will give a shout out to HF Habs thanking us for our continued love and support.
Based on what several players have been saying on social media, #justgettingstarted should be this year’s slogan at the presser.
He will give a shout out to HF Habs thanking us for our continued love and support.
Of course he will deflect, that's all he does. Even when he admits it's on him, he'll quickly move the blame onto somewhere else. That's where the journalists should push more and be relentless.
Bergevin is going into this presser giving himself a tap on the back with a job well done.
I hardly care what he does. People are far too concerned with it.
"Bergevin is smiling! OMG Why? He shouldn't be smiling? The arrogant guy is smiling at a hard question and now he deflects. UNREAL. ARROGANT GUY"
Who gives a ****?
He can smile, dance, pat himself on the back and juggle. I really do not give a ****. He won't say who he spoke to for trades and can't say who he wants to sign because it's tampering.
Only one question actually matters. "Are you done the reset or will you continue to add prospects and picks as aggressively as you did last 2 seasons?"
End of story. The whole reading between the lines stuff is boring and pointless. All I care about is the direction this team is headed.
He's going to deflect no matter what. Even to your question, he'll just say they will evaluate things over the summer, they had some good prospects, some good young guys came in this year, they will see what becomes available to them and go accordingly...blablabla.
I hardly cares what he says too because it's pretty clear who he is at this point, and that's someone clearly unqualified for the job.
Unqualified, unfit, unable, whatever you want to call it. Basically he sucks at his job which is to build a winning/contending team.He seems qualified to me. You don't have that much NHL and front office experience and not be qualified.
Thing is lots of people are qualified, some are better, some are worse.
Yes......every team is getting better, only hab players will regress and Poehling was lucky, and Kotka will stagnate and Julien will hold everyone back, we ain’t signing nobody, we won’t trade for anything, we’ll be 10m$ under the cap, Price and Weber are getting older as everyone else’s in the league are getting younger.......ya ya ya, heard it all,
That's basically the direction I would try to go, wanting to know 'What's the plan?'. Hopefully acknowledging they need to be better across the board. As others have pointed out, the division and conference look to get only stronger. Good organizations like the Rangers, Flyers and and Wings missed the playoffs too, I like the odds of them bouncing back soon.Pretty simple.
"I realize we have some good players but do you think we can realistically compete with powerhouses like TB? Up and comers like Toronto?"
He'll turn it into a softball though, "Anyone can compete in this league." maybe add in attitude, anything in possible, teamwork, etc...
I think there's a big difference between ship sinking and sailing in the right direction.
Habs are anchored in the middle of the ocean IMO. We ain't sinking but we're not going anywhere either.
No chance any of Montreals cowardly reporters asks that question.''Marc, every year you say the objective is to make the POs, then anything can happen. You have missed the POs in the last 3 out of 4 years. Fair to say you failed to reach your objective over those seasons?''
Every successful team had these streaks at some point......I’m surprised I have to explain this

... since cameras exist in Toronto too?Just logistically speaking, how can Bergevin hold a press conference at 4h30 and then be in Toronto/NYC for the draft lottery at 8pm?
Cloud 9You lost some altitude, your head is definitely in the clouds.
Bergevin has managed to fail both of his contradictory objectives.
"The goal is to make the playoffs"
*fail to miss the playoffs 3 out of the last 4 years*
"We want to build through the draft"
*Lehkonen, Kotkaniemi and Mete are the only players on the team that were drafted and developed during his tenure so far*
No chance any of Montreals cowardly reporters asks that question.
The PR Dept.’s Elite Suppresser Squad will have the reporter tackled and his mic removed, before he can finish the question.
Hope you like being spoonfed some bull****.
Lol.....he is more than qualified wether you like it, which you don’t or notHe's going to deflect no matter what. Even to your question, he'll just say they will evaluate things over the summer, they had some good prospects, some good young guys came in this year, they will see what becomes available to them and go accordingly...blablabla.
