Geoff Molson - Eh What's Up Doc Edition

[the]

Boy...life was better with that American owner instead of this moron.

Haven't spent a penny on anything Habs related in over 2 years... & I've purposely avoided buying any Molson products.

Won't change a thing, I know, but while these clowns can ruin the team I cheer for, I can at least not pay them to do so in the process...

What pisses me the most is the pack of accountability from the press. They will quickly dump on players any night of the week but the GM/Owner get passes despite their clear failures.

Sucks... But I get it in the Mtl market.

Habs are the main attraction in town, by far. Sports journalists don't exactly have great job security, Habs are well known to bully the media... Doesn't leave them much choice but to kiss butt.

I dont. If you're given up your professional integrity for job security...you should look at alternatives.

Great, after the 2022 reshuffle, the 2023 lack of coeur au ventre, the 2024 semi-transition and the 2025 lack of 'mental toughness', we'll get the 2027 fan experience renewal redux and maybe by 2028, we'll get a new plan.

LMAO.... I love your intent, but I had to laugh...
2019, north america, professional "integrity" is not exactly prominent in most industries, media and journalism perhaps the least (after politics, of course)

Well that much is clear...hence why I'm pissed off. lol

Pretty obvious that Mol$on and MB just need more time....more time to count their money.

The bar set on the ground for expectations is a very sad state of affairs, for the Habs.

Try reading the gazette's hockey inside out articles for a good dose of management hate.the site has become a pile of garbage.

Well... it is all part of the clever plan by Molson. Make Bell hot dogs even more delicious (as part of transparency) so that the press dare not criticize the ownership in fear of losing their access to these delicious hot dogs. It's a bullet proof plan.

The HIO has indeed become a pile of garbage. I am surprised anyone still reads it. The old site had thousands of posts daily. Since Lucinda decided to improve it (btw, she is Michael Therrien of The Gazette) you can count on one hand the number of people that post there. I quit going to the site about a year ago... recently checked and yep... same thing. Every article Disco Stu posts get about 5 readers... I don't know how that guy makes a living, to be honest.

but what about 2026? I am sure Marc Bergevin has a solid plan (approved by Moneybags) for 2026. I believe it will be a pivotal year for the team.

Habs could conceivably miss the playoffs for the 4th time in 5 years. How long will this mediocrity be allowed to continue?

 

[Pickles]

I think what pisses me off the most about this owner is how spineless he is. When the Cunnyworth debacle happened he caved in immediately to the pressure from the media and fans who threatened to boycott his beer.

The fact that he had to bring in Serge Savard to interview GM candidates was a clear indication that he's not qualified to be president of hockey operations.

Truly amazing that the fans and the media in the city, have put up with this crap from Mol$on...lowering the bar has everyone fooled.
Brutal...

In 2026, they'll make the playoffs and lose in the first round. It will be heralded as the culmination of Bergevin's grand master plan. We'll only need to be a bit more patient, wait for next trade deadline. Wait for next free agency.

3-8 is quite the time line. Does that mean Molson expects us to remain mediocre for at least two more years ? The is the window closed at year 9 ? (I know MB doesnt believe in windows)

I fully expect that by the end of year 8 (that's 2027 btw) Habs will be a solid contender for trying to compete for a playoffs spot.

By that time we should have at least 12M of unused cap hit, just in case.

Once the season starts, anything can happen!

One more reason for Moneybags to be excited - Le CH populaire sur YouTube

Boy...life was better with that American owner instead of this moron.

I thought Gillette was an excellent owner.

Had he never got involved with Liverpool FC, he'd probably still be running this team.

 

[HuGo Sham]

very much a fanboy - hope board forces him to get a prez of hockey ops

Ain't that sad.
