Source? I saw different numbers last night that favoured the Rags. Might have been quality scoring chances, though.

 

[DopeyFish]

.

corsica says differently?

and i remember leafs leading washington in high danger and medium danger scoring chances so it can't be quality scoring chances here

 

[Smiley90]

What the fuck man

... how?!

That's pretty stupid of Thornton tbh

That's pretty stupid of Thornton tbh

he's a good canadian boy. if you can breathe, you can play hockey

One of the radio host says he's throwing a parade next year if we make the playoffs, because that's the new Stanley Cup for Marc Bergevin

So true it hurts.

 

[Solo]

Weber on AGally:

Pretty accurate, fair take.

 

[Razorskin]

That's just stupid, why put yourself at further risk

He'll never get a cup ):

 

[Marvie_3]

.

I'll add Chicago to that list since they arent on it:

Chicago -136

 

[Unhandled Exception]

If we could just fast forward through the rest of the yoffs that'd be great.

I want to know just how little of a fuck I can give next year and it starts with draft trades

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I want Joe Thornton to win a cup.

 

[imBask]

Bergevin's presser right now, will translate the important parts

-He's happy about the guys but losing is a huge deception
-Galchenyuk failing as a #1 center did mess up his plans, he admitted it straight up

If every series from now on was a sweep I'd be OK with that. Get this shit over with long before the expansion draft.

That's a very strange thing to say...

 

[imBask]

That's a very strange thing to say...

It's barely an interpretation, he didn't spend a lot of time defending him all, pretty hard on him considering it's a press conference and they're usually super PC

 

[bigJP]

"Marc Bergevin says Galchenyuk's short term future will be playing wing"

... nothing more to say

 

[lamaroo]

Bergevin's presser right now, will translate the important parts

-Galchenyuk failing as a #1 center did mess up his plans, he admitted it straight up

So obviously it wasn't all of the fourth liners he traded for, or the Captain being a complete no show, if Galchenyuk had simply carried the team they would have won.

 

[Zombie James]

"Marc Bergevin says Galchenyuk's short term future will be playing wing"

Isn't that decision up to the coach?

 

[imBask]

-Galchenyuk's best assets are his hands and shot, he lost confidence, he hopes Galchenyuk took 2 steps back to take a step forward, had a bad season
-Clod says Galchenyuk might just "not be ready"

🔥🔥🔥

fucking roasted

So obviously it wasn't all of the fourth liners he traded for, or the Captain being a complete no show, if Galchenyuk had simply carried the team they would have won.

to be fair he's getting a barrage of question about Galchenyuk

 

[imBask]

-I have no problem with our drafting, Ice Caps made the playoffs

FUCK
MARC
BERGEVIN
FOREVER

Did someone give the mic to Red_Man?

 

[lamaroo]

Did anybody ask what Bergevin's plan actually was?

After five years, is it still 'make the playoffs'?

 

[imBask]

-he's happy with our core, and thinks we can improve without turning everything upside down

what a surprise

 

[Pikma]

Why are Preds fans talking about the habs?

 

[imBask]

Why are Preds fans talking about the habs?

I took french classes at Nashmiles University

 

[lamaroo]

Why are Preds fans talking about the habs?

We're hoping we can fleece them for some more great players.

 

[imBask]

-he's saying players have to take ownership of their development (talking about Galchenyuk and Beaulieu specifically)

excuse me?

 

[Cake Boss]

God damn he's going in on Chucky 😂

fucking roasted

Nice hair though

 

[imBask]

-"Where will reinforcements come from to help scoring?" "Galchenyuk didn't score any goals for us in the series... can he score goals? yes, but he didn't score goals" + blablabla

 

[Razorskin]

-he's happy with our core, and thinks we can improve without turning everything upside down

what a surprise

Our core with hardly any top 6 talent, fucking hell

 

[imBask]

French media are also going in hard, they sound like they're not believing a word Bergevin is saying in the way they're asking questions

 

[imBask]

"I know you don't talk about contracts, so i'll ask you about contracts" -Tony Marinaro

 

[Cake Boss]

So far the french media with the best questions, they aren't giving any easy lay up questions.

 

[imBask]

if Galchenyuk is listening to this, he might be on the Jacques-Cartier bridge ready to jump right now

 

[Zombie James]

-"Where will reinforcements come from to help scoring?" "Galchenyuk didn't score any goals for us in the series... can he score goals? yes, but he didn't score goals" + blablabla

What?

 

[Yawnier]

Is this Bergevin presser gonna be uploaded somewhere later, like on youtube?

 

[imBask]

What?

his answer to the lack of scoring in the playoffs was roasting Galchenyuk

no mention of Pacioretty

 

[bigJP]

going back 5 years, do you think mcguire would have been a better choice?

 

[lamaroo]

McGuire is too embarrassing to hire.

 

[imBask]

Engels: "Marc can you name a team that has won a cup without a number 1 center, like you said has happened before?"

MB: "Well, I mean, LA, you know they had Kopitar and Carter... And Chicago... well, actually, Toews is a number 1 center, yeah.


BERGEVIN IS ON THAT 420 SHIT

 

[Zombie James]

McGuire is too embarrassing to hire.

More embarrassing than this?

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Anyone and everyone is better than Pierre

 

[Parch]

I figured the Montreal hockey media would be vicious. When the fanbase is pissed they're more than willing to pass on the sentiment and stir the pot to create more havoc.

That's actually not uncommon in any Canadian city. Hockey is serious business and the sports media is really good at being abrasive assholes.

i agree until i heard this

[CreeperBlocks]

Jesus Christ no.

Do you want fucking Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid jokes when we play Boston?

Pierre probably wouldn't re sign Price because he's fresh off the reserve.

Yes Pierre said that when we drafted him

Lol

Yes.

McGuire would probably be just as bad, and I wouldn't be able to show my face around.
