Marc Bergevin: Redemption Song Part 19

[Miller Time]

They’re gonna win the cup. It’s quite clear the way they are playing. You don’t blanket stars in 3 series because of fluke. They’ve been the strongest team in the playoffs since the Toronto series win.

we were all wrong. Bergevin has turned hockey on his head in building a conventional team with no stars outside of goal and no puck moving d man. It goes against the prevailing hockey zeitgeist and it’s working.

I wouldn't go as far as that.

But the results this playoffs are something special that I'll enjoy for a long time.

What comes after... We'll see.

@Kriss E @Lafleurs Guy @WeThreeKings we all need to admit it now

Hey, he's earned it, great offseason. Crow never tasted so good.

 

[SnapVirus]

He looked like a real leader.

all players hubg him up. Even Tatar.

asked everyone to go in the pictures including the injured and benched players.

props to you MB. You did it. You built a great team!

 

[Ezpz]

f*** it keep him

I’ve watched a lot of playoffs and teams that play the way the Canadiens have win. These are not fluke wins. They give the opposing team nothing at all. Price hasn’t had to be the best player since game 7 against the leafs.

the lineup he has put together has worked. All the transactions that have received criticism have worked.

 

[Deebs]

We can play anyway you want

I’ll admit, it’s hard for to enjoy the games sometimes knowing I was so wrong, but that’s on me.

Price has been our best player for sure. He hasn't had to steal every game but he's stolen a lot. I mean, he has been absolutely incredible.

 

[blarneylad]

I am sorry Bergevin, I was wrong about you and your team.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I’ll admit, it’s hard for to enjoy the games sometimes knowing I was so wrong, but that’s on me.

I remain critical of a lot of things. But why dwell on them now?

I'd much prefer to focus on the good moves he's made recently and there are a lot.

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

As much as I hated his guts and wanted him gone a month ago... He's done it. We can't take that away from him and as bizarre as it sounds, I was super happy to see him that happy. First GM to bring this team to the SCF in almost 30 years. Props for this year Marc, thanks for the joy this team gave me these past few weeks.

Sorry Marc, please accept my most sincere apologies.

Give him his 5 years extension.

Because I’m a selfish know it all and it hurts to admit I’m wrong lol

I've watched a lot of playoffs as well.

Hasek, Giguere, vanbiesbrook lol... A magical run backed by a goalie playing as well as Price has is nothing novel.

No need to exaggerate or extrapolate much further, just enjoy the ride!

Well, then just go to the Price thread then.

 

[teamfirst]

Was really cool listening to Price saying he is so happy for MB and how MB care about this team

 

[NeptunesTrident]

Thank you Marc. I sure never thought it possible this team would be in the Cup Finals. You've said once you get in the playoffs anything can happen. You were right.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

He earned it his ''anything can happen'' finally happened

 

[Andy]

Well, then just go to the Price thread then.

At least I never doubted him lol

 

[OnTheRun]

Geoff, you can extend Bergy now.

 

[WeThreeKings]

@Kriss E @Lafleurs Guy @WeThreeKings we all need to admit it now

All hail our red suit purple pants overlord.

[koivu2k1]

Damn Danault easy there with the taps on Caufield I'm afraid he might injure him

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

His Budget joker suit might actually be it
