Machine of Loving Grace Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 4 minutes ago, Stogey24 said: So basically Therrien has damaged this team more than we really know. Bergevin. Don't blame Therrien. Blame Bergevin. The blame is squarely on Bergevin. Bergevin signed all of his golfing buddies to take jobs in Montreal. Bergevin kept Therrien around longer than he should have. Bergevin deflected blame for the likes of Sylvain and Lacroix and JJ and put it on him while acting like leadership in the locker room was a problem as justification for trading PK Subban (who is now healthy with a .65 points per game average compared to Weber's .55) You can blame Therrien for the on-ice product, but you have to ultimately blame Bergevin because these were his choices. Absolutely nothing in the media has suggested that Molson is a meddler aside from one story that he might have stepped in to ensure PK's contract got signed. Everything else is him trusting Bergevin. This is not a Ronald Corey situation. This all falls on Marc Bergevin ultimately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a part-time job for me so when I'm on shift there, I can't really work on anything for HW. https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/ Hey that is great, now I have another place to look for rumors. You are a busy boy Brian. as to you other 2 do you know how many comedians are out of work? There is one on HIO show that should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal made the same decision with Lehkonen. Why leave Hudon in the minors for that? It's pretty clear at this point the organization doesn't like Hudon for some reason. I think it has to do with Sylvain. I bet you if the Habs fired Sylvain in the summer, the next coach would come in and wonder why the team never called Hudon up.

Commandant Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I'd like to see Hudon up to know what Julien would see in him. I get the impression Therrien didn't like him, but Julien might, we don't know. Doubt he's had time to see what the habs have in the minors.

This is why I'm convinced it's on Sylvain more than Therrien. I like Byron but if a team called up about him, maybe a cap strapped team that wanted a guy who could play up and down the lineup with elite speed, I'd trade him for what I could get and bring Hudon instead for the 3LW role.

Commandant Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I think Ghetto and DD will be gone which leaves room for Hudon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get impression Bergevin-Dudley-LaCarriere-Mellanby-Lapointe are not sold on Hudon...and had zero to do with Therrien. It is Mgmt group who watches/reviews AHL games not Hab coaches.
