Marc-Andre Bergeron has been dealt to Carolina.

Because they didn't have enough offensive defensemen who can't play defense? Or is this McBain's replacement?

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun 14s
Tampa gets Adam Hall and a 7th-round pick in return for Bergeron

Because that makes complete sense.

 

[Guy]

Just what we needed!

 

[dammit100]

for Adam Hall and a 7th

[dammit100]

Collect all the marc-andres!

 

[faulkingdynamic]

What the hell is this?? MAB for Hall??

PP issues solved everyone!!!!

 

[DaleCooper]

Adam Hall want return a Bolt LOL

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

But.....why?

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Wow.

 

[DaleCooper]

Eh, if it's only Hall and a 7th it's not much of a gamble. Maybe he can help with the powerplay.

 

[QuitStaaling]

I wonder why...........why, why, why, why.........................

 

[dammit100]

unless he murders someone, he can't make the PP worse

 

[What the Faulk]

Bergeron has only played 12 games this year. Has he been hurt?

Both are UFAs next year so none of that matters.

[the halleJOKEL]

Umm... well alright then.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Can only help the PP, I suppose.

But gotta be another move coming, right?

Jim Rutherford ‏@HurricanesGM
Marc-Andre is a skilled, veteran defenseman who has made a good career out of helping teams on the power play.

Nothing but a PP move.

Have to think McBain is all but gone if they'd go out and get Bergeron rather than try him there.

 

[DougieSmash]

You know your GM and coach are really desperate to fix the worst powerplay in history when they make a deal for... MAB.

Bergeron is ideal #7 actually but... that means Sangs becomes full time player if healthy and McBain goes somewhere for forward.

Ideal.

Harrison- Bergeron. I'm really ashamed to be a fan if that happen.

Because when I saw the Carolina Hurricanes last week, I thought "this team needs to be worse defensively."

Bahahahahaha, on both counts.

...are we completely screwed?

 

[dammit100]

5'9" 198.

I prefer "musical chairs in Hell" myself.

Well, he does have a cannon. Unfortunately, it's now lying on the sea floor next to the rest of the wreckage.

 

[Zombie Mike Murphy]

Wonder if we might be making a Jagr play, with McBain part of the package?

 

[faulkingdynamic]

As often as we play the fourth line.....just dress a 7th dman and only play MAB on PPs. MAB is worse than McBain and Sangs in his own end.

I think somebody needs to test JR's water bottle...I think it's filled with some high-test moonshine.
