GDT: Press conference featuring m. Molson, MB and MT

[Lafleurs Guy]

Eh Guy, who is They? I was talking about the medias, they can't fire these guys, they are talking but that's it..

Ah okay, I see. I misread your post, sorry.

Yup, the media is actually pretty upset. That was the first time in MB's tenure that I've seen sharp questions pointed their way. It was refreshing to see actually. Not that it will do any good but...

 

[HabsDood]

Maybe Bergevin should ask himself why we're so dependent on one player. Yes Carey is important but the Rangers managed to do pretty well when Lundquist was hurt last year. Other teams manage to not be the worst team in the league when they lose their starting goalie.

No excuses my @ss

Lundquist is overated

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

It's such a shame because I had such high hopes coming into the season. To see how it's panned out and then watch us hang onto MT is just the cherry on top. It just became a whole lot harder to sign some good FAs.

 

[Cole Caulifield]

Yeah, I'm a little ticked right now as to how everybody gets a mulligan without admitting what really happened: Bergevin and Therrien got caught with their Price down!

Solid.

 

[habalifeok]

Dale Weise's defensive irresponsibility is likely why he is not longer getting prime minutes anymore. He'll be back with us next season pronto...like in the top 6 as Chucky's goal-scoring winger. And I'm not being sarcastic.

Not sarcastic more like idiotic.

 

[yRessUneChose]

Erase the free market capitalism and thats like the entire Habs organization right now L

Ponder... People say things out of anger.. It is a tough day.

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Not sarcastic more like idiotic.

You attack my intellect. But it's nobody's fault but Therrien he gave Dale Weise everything this season on the "first line". Give me a rational reason why that would not repeat itself next season.

Really, I'm still laughin' as i type.. man...

As cool as the werewolf gif..

We could use her in our bottom 9..

 

[habalifeok]

Lundquist is overated

Price won every award in the book last year. He made the 30 million dollar defense like like 50 million dollars. Now how did that very same defense **** the bed and make the the goalie look like 2 bits this year??

Honestly, I'm glad. As disappointing as it will be to watch another burn, it's our only hope that change comes. When Bergevin inevitably fails to sign anyone worth mentioning, it'll be the status quo of mediocrity again, except now that teams know without any shadow out doubt how fragile we are without Price. Their entire gameplay will be to expose him, which I suspect will hinder his ability to carry us particularly by himself. Worse, he'll get run constantly now. But in the end, we'll hopefully struggle right from the word go and these incompetent buffoons finally get fired.

Just a shame we'll have wasted three years. And to that I see, **** you, Molson. I hope you lose money next year. Maybe then you'll give a damn.

 

[Kriss E]

Can anyone recap this quickly? Was it a whole lot of nothing as expected?

It's just awful watching this core being wasted. It's like cheering for the '94 Expos.

 

[CHarlie]

Well it is what it is.........and I live and die the Montreal Canadiens........so Marc Bergevin you better not disappoint me and lets have a really good offseason............a really really good one.

Nha, nothing's like that, I still hate Bud Seilig (sp) like herpes.. And I don't have herpes...

OT: Wife wants to watch a movie, be back when I can.. lol

 

[Chili]

Three burnt ones.

Close, two to illuminate and one to show watts watt.

Edit: was hard to tell which was the bright one.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Yep. We could have been building towards a Chicago given how young our core is. Even if we did change things around fast, we won't get back the three years completely wasted just to get Therrien fired. Granted, at this point, I want Bergevin one just as much. The one minimal defense I can give Therrien, is Bergevin's utter lack of ability to acquire anyone to actually help scoring.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

freaking coward

Maybe. But even then, we're sitting in Washington's cross hairs while they sweep us. Good job though right, Bergevin?

 

[Smokey Thompson]

If you care about your blood pressure and overall stress level, do yourself a favour and do not watch or listen to the presser.

 

[mtl_felix]

Yes it was.

GM is a difficult job, trades are hard, top 6 players are not readily available so he tries and compensate the lack or scoring with bottom 6 players (which makes no sens because there is a finite number of bottom 6 spots and every team has the same cap but whatever), has no regret and no one is accountable, wouldn't be talking with the media today if Price hadn't been injured, ..

oh and most importantly, full confidence in his entire coaching staff (AHL included) with the sole exception of Ramsey.

Also apparently "Markov n'est pas un jeune poulet"

 

[CHarlie]

Maybe. But even then, we're sitting in Washington's cross hairs while they sweep us. Good job though right, Bergevin?

Not sure about that

 

[Deluded Puck]

Cronyism is alive.

Such a shame to see the most talent that has been assembled since the last cup wasted. I'm not even angry anymore.

 

[Bouboumaster]

The single silver lining, tho, is that today, the media were having none of it.

Cantin was probably dreaming about this ever since Bergevin pwned him, earlier this year.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Not sure about that

You think we have any chance against the Caps this year even with Price? Unless we pull another miracle run, they would dominate us.

 

[hockeyfan2k11]

I think this management is worse than Houle. Houle and co were incompetent. These guys are incompetent and throw out excuse after excuse. There is ZERO accountability. That actually upsets me more than anything. These guys are blaming the whole season on Price getting hurt. What a circus. I can't cheer for this iteration of the Habs anymore.

It's hard to get a top 6 player. It's hard to win with injuries. It's hard to win without your MVP. Excuse after ecuse after excuse from a staff that preaches accountability. What a flipping joke.

You stand up for your terrible coach and talk about being in the foxhole with him....along with making excuses for Lefebvre and then won't do the same with PK? This guy is a clown.

I'm proud of the media though. They finally grew a sack and asked some good questions.
