Bergevin is a bipolar fashionista. Sometimes it's really nice, other times it's just weird, like in this picture.
I think a lot of people who are into fashion are hit or miss. Because they have a very out-of-the-norm taste, that at times it comes off really nice and at times it comes off like ''what are they thinking going out in that?''
MB does have many more hits than misses. But his misses stand out so much.

That is a fashion don't. Red pants belong on a clown...so I guess maybe it does work for Bergevin. Guy must think he is a rockstar to pull off such terrible clothes. Doesn't work for greta van zepplin or bergevin.
He now has my haircut. That's it, I'm going to the barbershop TODAYIn attendance yesterday.
Missing the Sergachev trade, wonder why.
But here's the thing.
I can buy
Sweet Chili Heat Doritos
Lindt double chocolate bar
Some really good plums
Pepsi
Green peppers
Beef Tenderloin
But if I put all of this into a stew, it's gonna taste awful.
None of these trades mean much in a broader context because he doesn't have a vision.

That's a hilarious analogy. I laughed.
I'm not sure it's valid though. Because I think that you can have a successful team with each of Weber, Petry, Danault, Tatar, Byron, Domi, Suzuki on the roster. Drouin is the notable trade failure, but many teams have such a bad a trade over eight years.
There have been ups and downs but overall I think that the trading and the professional scouting have been pretty good under the Bergevin administration.
The issue is chiefly the poor drafting and development. There simply hasn't been a good influx of young players joining the team in the Bergevin era. The only Bergevin draftees contributing to the team right now are Gallagher, Lehkonen, Kotkaniemi, and Mete. That's just not a lot over eight years.
A better analogy might be an attempt to build a pot roast with decent meat and vegetables but no salt, oil, butter, onion, garlic, or spices. @Mrb1p might be able to get it done, but for the most part, good luck.
Those are part of the failure.. drafting/development (I have disliked some picks, but there's too many development fails and too much other noise that points to Lefebvre/Therrien being really bad for our prospect development)
But the main crux of my post is that Bergevin doesn't really have a vision or a strategy. Like right now, we are sitting between two cores. You have the Suzuki/Kotkaniemi core and you have the Price/Weber core. Weber is 35, Price is 32. You have to commit to one of these windows, you can't sit in between both and not acquire talent for Weber/Price, or not acquiring 1st round picks and blue chip prospects for the Suzuki/Kotkaniemi window.
But that's what he is content on doing and I think we won't get good enough before Weber falls off.. and I don't think we will have enough young talent coming from the draft to support Suzuki/Kotkaniemi when they fully come into their own.
