Habs Season Thread: 2024-25 Regular Season

[GEEMAN]

Yeah, tell me about it...

Translation: no one offered a 4 year deal or more money

Mathias Brunet in La Presse rips Bergevin for building a blueline core that would have been good during the 1980s.

I don’t care if the Habs miraculously win the next three. Bergevin needs gone.

That analysis is pretty damning. Especially the Subban/Markov/Sergachev point.

Not mentioned (or maybe I missed it): the Alzner fiasco.

Nothing that hasn't been discussed here but it warms my heart to see it in the mainstream.

Dans une moindre mesure, Mike Reilly a perdu sa bataille avec Brett Kulak pour un poste. Reilly était l’un des rares défenseurs avec un flair offensif. Mais il lui arrivait de gaffer à l’occasion.

Après un court passage à Ottawa, Reilly se retrouve au sein du top 4 des Bruins de Boston. Il a obtenu deux aides dans le dernier match de la série contre les Capitals de Washington. Les Bruins et leur entraîneur Bruce Cassidy, un ancien défenseur offensif, ont choisi d’accepter les carences de Reilly.

This part kinda summarizes it well....

 

[GrandWazoo]

Part of it is on Julien as well. MB was trying to find players for Claude. All of Markov, Sergachev, Reilly, Mete, Alzner, Chiarot, Edmundson happened under Claude.

That’s why MB went after DeAngelo..

Even more than MB I want Timmins gone.

He stole part of my points. Oh well, I'll still whine about it.

I will translate it later

I don't follow the French media but is Brunet a straight shooter and not a bias nutbar like many others

You haven't been reading enough of him, then.

He's the sitting president of Timmins Apologists Inc.

 

[GGpX]

There's something in recent memory that has irked me about Mathias Brunet is his drivel about draft coverage.

When he does those hindsight 20-20 posts, well they took Player X at 13 when Player Y was taken at 15 and Player Z taken at 18 (which is perfectly fair, but then he continues with), along with Player G at 47 and Player H at 71.

I mean... The same two players that were passed up at least once by each of their respective teams.

 

[Habsy]

Dreger. Sure hope he’s wrong yet again.

 

[Sal_Butera]

As I said, would be too funny if MB is extended and St Patrick brought in as coach

If Bergevin is here next season I stop watching until he’s gone. I’ve had it.

yeah... i would have tuned out this year but the pandemic and you guys kept me tuned in.

I’m breaking free next year pending managerial changes.

We should find a new team like the ring chasers who went with Labron to the Heat.

 

[Habsy]

I’ve already got the Panthers to watch if I want hockey. I’m seriously fed up with this crap.
