The Habs should try to re-sign Galchenyuk long-term this summer. Not letting it get to next year. http://lastwordonsports.com/2016/08/03/canadiens-need-to-re-sign-alex-galchenyuk/

Sort of the response I anticipated but executed a bit better, not that I expected much of a rational debate between two sensible Habs fans with differing opinions on the current topics. Regardless, well done

I think you completely missed his point and I agree with him. I'm a Habs fan until I die and I'm sure in the next 70 years there will be some seasons where I'll be less interested than others or be extremely busy and miss more games than I'd like, but even in those seasons I wouldn't announce my drop in interest, it would just happen. To think about dropping the team and then to state it is just inconceivable to some fans. It literally feels silly that I'm a fan of the team where other fans are talking about this when I think about it for a moment. Laughing stock comes to mind. I can see why it would be tough if we had a similar situation to when Wang was the owner of the Islanders but basically people who feel betrayed to the extent that they'd want to drop their fandom are indirectly or directly stating that Bergevin is purposely hurting the team. I can't buy into that even though I've been toughest on him compared to anyone else in the organization. It would also suck to have an idiot GM who consistently loses every trade but that also isn't the case here. He's had some wins and he's had some losses. Anyway, he wasn't saying that people can't post about their different opinions even if they were against management. He was saying that if you're seriously going to stop bleeding red, white and blue, then why even post at all? I don't get the vibe that many people on here really feel that way anymore though.
