Description

Not sure what Bergevin can do other than go all in without selling off the team. Berg will lose his job if he doesn't assemble what could be a contender on paper.

If it doesn't work out he's got so many expiring UFAs next year that he could blow it up then. Might as well try something though.

You know the plan since 2018 is a reset, not selling prospect or high draft pick
You still dont get it ?

why would mcdonagh or johnson waive their full NTCs to go from a tampa team that will easily make the playoffs to a montreal team that is very clearly mortgaging the future? i can't imagine either of them going literally anywhere for any price.

I could see Bergy going all in next year. Its either bust or try and contend, mediocre won't cut it for much longer.

Bolts add Kucharovs

"Kucharovs"? Never heard of him. Assuming he's a D- prospect? Because if you're thinking of Nikita Kucherov, you've instantly become the funniest person on here (Not in a good way).
