Marc Bergevin - More Excuses Needed... Edition Pt 2

[teamfirst]

bubble teams do that once in a while.

you have VERY low standards though, low enough one has to wonder how much of a fan you are.

Happy with the GM cause they may make the PO for the 2nd time in the last 5 years...

Questionning fans level now........i'm pretty sure i saw you crapping on people who where doing the same thing.......naaa couldnt be you, you're Monsieur intégrité around here

I also think we go up from here. The reset was a success in my view. Let’s take the next step. We need a star player plus the rookies.

A lot of people here are eternal complainers/haters. It’s becoming rds message board alike.

Just heard on RDS that Oilers got permission to speak to Scott Mellanby. Not sure what impact he’s had here but good riddance. We need a clean up anyways.

Maybe we can let them talk to MB also..........they could use his expertise. Why take Mellanby when you can have the absolute best the Habs have to offer.

I've listened to enough of Damp House's takes on AC to know that he'd be a Reggie Houle if afforded a position of high responsibility like that of a GM.

Plus, if he's such a good candidate, why doesn't he do his classes like everyone else and go manage an AHL team rather than pontificate from a blue seat on AC.

Couldn’t agree more.......Darche would do a better job then he would......Damphousse is part of the “He Annoys me” club

 

[jaffy27]

I will have a stroke if that happens.

He ain’t even qualified to be on antichambre, let alone a GM job

Sign Duchesne, trade Drouin for a good left D.

You're dreaming buddy, sign a fringe NHLer and/or reclamation project is more like it...

A community of people, all with different interests and opinions. HF habs.

Sounds like the cadence of the lines you hear during breaks from Judge Judy's show.

Real people. Real cases. Judge Judy.

I like her, no BS, just gets right to it, my kind of woman.

 

[Runner77]

Ya, he sure showed us with his 1st round exit

Ya, he got taken out by a team that sacrificed most of its futures for the current run.

Can't wait to see what Columbus looks like this summer once all their UFAs sign elsewhere.

Mind you, it will have been worth it should they win the Cup. But, what a gamble.

She's the kind of person that you'd only wish MB would be directly answerable to.

Some people in here are drooling 'cause he might actually have won 1 summer (while still not making the playoffs), well Bergie needs to win another one. Going fringe won't cut it.

Can you imagine him wilting under that "look", he'd pee his purple pants.

That was Russian roulette with six hollow points in a six shooter!!!.....the bullet misfired.......faulty primer lol

Like Christopher Walker once told us, a bullet always tells the truth, I’m expecting big things from them even though I called Boston to win

Nobody beat this guy though.....

Talk about missing the point..

...of course , i don't buy your point of view so i missed the point . It such an easy game to discredit Bergevin , to blame him for everything and to repeat day after day that he should be fired . But what are the other options ? Of course , there should be better candidates somewhere in the world , but i hope you realize there are also a lot of worst options . Do you realize that you will be able to known if the one selected is better than Bergevin only after 3-4 years of his tenure ?

Who are the GMs that are way better than Bergevin in the NHL ? You should be able to name few of them, no ?

Anyway , i think i am done with this thread

It is of course true that Bergevin is not entirely responsible for the team's failings.

Some of the blame lies with Molson.

Some with the coach and even some with the players.......

Yes it is easy. Hes failed to reach his objective of just “making the Pos” 3 of the last 4 years.
Gainey, who most agreed should go, never reached that low.

Who is better? I dont know. I dont follow all the other teams to the extent of knowing their every move. But do I think some out there can do better than miss the Po 3/4 years? Hell ya.

Yeah, holding the person in charge responsible for what he's in charge of... What a crazy and outlandish idea!?!

It doesn't take 3-4 years to evaluate decision making & job competency, come on now...
Plus, in the highly unlikely chance that we actually found a worse candidate for the role than MB, the magnitude of incompetence that would entail would be visible in the first few moves.

Really, the person most responsible is Molson... It all starts at the top.

How about you name 5 gms that are worse than the binman.

At one point, he said that it was on HIM. Then, when he saw that everything was going south for a longer period of time that he thought, it was on OTHER people. But for once, he was right at first. It was on HIM. He's the decision maker. If guys under him are bad, sure it's on them...but it's on HIM to replace them.

As far as who is better, who is worst, it's such a non-issue. Who cares if we can name 3, 4, 6, what's the point anyway? What if we could find an assistant GM that will come in and be a great GM? And also, are we really going to keep somebody that we find might not a good job because of the possibility that we might be wrong again? Sure, I have absolutely NO confidence in Molson at all. But if things continue to go south, yes, I will take the bet that Molson finally find a good one.

 

[Whitesnake]

But right now, it's all good. Bergie will have another year. And another summer to have another great summer. Unless it's 1 good summer every 8 years.....
