Canadiens’ Bergevin the GM Who Cried Wolf
June 1st, 2018 Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin just can’t win. Now, that’s of course true literally speaking, with the Habs having just suffered through a season, during which they finished in 28th place. However, it’s more in reference to how, no matter what he...
Carey Price: Right Attitude to Save the Habs?
May 26th, 2018 Since winning the Hart Trophy in 2014-15, Carey Price has seen his numbers decline progressively. Some fans may be concerned that Price, who will turn 31 prior to the start of the upcoming season, is now past his prime and has started an inevitable decline. This decline is...Bergevin’s Best Offseason So Far?
May 26th, 2018 At the very least, Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin has proven he can perform when the pressure is on. Of course, it probably would have been more helpful had he been able to put together a few impressive moves in succession whenever the team’s season has...
The Molson Era: Straying From Greatness
May 21st, 2018 At first glance, the title may seem dramatic, especially from a financial standpoint. The Montreal Canadiens are the third most valuable franchise in the NHL, with a valuation of $1.25 billion. From a business operations standpoint, the Canadiens are 2nd in the NHL in both...
Bouchard Signing a Step in Right Direction for Habs
May 19th, 2018 No one can perfectly predict how Joel Bouchard will work out as the new head coach of the Montreal Canadiens’ minor-league team, the Laval Rocket. But, as one of the top candidates, if the not the absolute best, Bouchard being signed is an undeniably good move. Habs...
Bergevin’s Top Offseason Priorities as Canadiens GM
May 13th, 2018 If this were any other offseason, Canadiens GM Marc Bergevin would be able to sit back and relax, relatively speaking. After all, he has no unrestricted free agents on his current roster he absolutely needs to re-sign, unless you count Ales Hemsky and/ or Antti...Is a Full-Scale Canadiens' Rebuild Inevitable?
May 3rd, 2018 It must feel like 100 years for Montreal Canadiens' fans – imagine how Chicago Cubs fans felt when their team won in 2016, ending a drought that had reached triple digits – 107 years to be exact. So much to say that if teams aren't careful, even the most beloved ones,...Lottery Win for Canadiens Is Bergevin’s Loss
May 2nd, 2018 The Montreal Canadiens as a whole are clearly in a better position after the NHL Draft Lottery, during which they moved up one spot for the rights to the third overall pick. For general manager Marc Bergevin, though? It probably can’t get any worse. Balling for...
Ducharme a Positive for the Canadiens
April 28th, 2018 After the Montreal Canadiens' season was over, it was pretty well known that general manager Marc Bergevin and head coach Claude Julien would return next year. However, the same couldn’t be said for the assistant coaches and that was confirmed today as Dominique Ducharme...In Defense of Canadiens GM Bergevin’s Season
April 22nd, 2018 The knife twisted in just a little deeper when ex-Montreal Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban got his third Norris Trophy nomination as the league’s best defenseman. If the disastrous season wasn’t enough, Habs fans are no doubt suffering even more over the news. Even...
Canadiens Fans Need Answers After Lefebvre Firing
April 20th, 2018 It was about time for ex-Laval Rocket head coach Sylvain Lefebvre. Or, to be more respectful, the clock had at least run out on him and his time at the helm of the American Hockey League farm team of the Montreal Canadiens. After one playoff berth in six seasons (a...Montreal Canadiens: Attitude and the Emergence of Molson
April 11th, 2018 Fans hoping for solutions from Marc Bergevin and Geoff Molson at this year’s end of season press conference were disappointed. However, they could not have been very surprised. In fairness, this owner and general manager had an impossible task. Some fans are livid. Others...Habs' Molson, Bergevin Fail to Pass Blame
April 10th, 2018 If the 2017-18 Montreal Canadiens season had been a play, their embittered fans had likely been hoping for a tragic ending during which management fell on its sword. After all, the first two acts certainly fit the bill anyway. Unfortunately, what they got was a comedy as...
