Habs if Bergevin didn't Bergevin the team

Created by: KP8
Team: 2017-18 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 24, 2018
Published: Jan. 24, 2018
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Was bored and wanted to see what the Habs would look like if some of the more criticized Bergevin moves never happened.

Note: Kyle Baun buyout was due to the fact that the Habs traded Martinsen for Baun, but could not have done so if they kept Andrighetto.

    Without Bergevin, you should take out Byron, Danault, Hemsky, Shaw, Lehkonen, Scherbak, De La Rose, Mete, Sergachev, Petry, Jerabek, Morrow, Benn, Lindgren.

    Without Bergevin your team would probably be worse.... who else was in the talent pool of FRENCH SPEAKING GM'S? Maybe if Montreal didn't have a half chub for French people they'd do a lot better, but thems the prices to pay when you deal that way. Lose the French obligation and you could actually become a team that could make the cup finals which hasn't happened in a generation. I love it that Montreal is so silly they do anything for the French. They used to be the bullies, but now as a Boston fan I look forward to dominating them every game as an easy win. We had a long history of losing to them, so it's great how they managed to completely implode upon themselves and turn into a pumpkin.

    Montreal has like 4 french players and its not even about them being french they are local. Thats like saying boston shouldn't have Gryzelcyk, Acciari, or McCavoy. Montreal's coach speaks french and he literally coached Boston to their last Stanley cup, but he shouldn't be coaching Montreal? Bergevin was the assistant GM in Chicago and helped build their cup winning teams, but he shouldn't be given a chance in Montreal? Hockey is huge in Montreal and Canada, there will always be locals in the organization.

    This post is ridiculous and honestly just seems like you hate french people, every NHL team likes to have local talent.

    Durrrr.... I'm not talking about players I'm talking about Coaches / GM's..... clearly you can't follow along with anything. I even said French Speaking GM's and then went on to why they need to drop their need for french speaking management.

    Again why is Sweeney the GM of Boston.. does the fact that he played 15 seasons with them have anything to do with it? Or was he the best possible GM to choose from? Pretty sure Bergevin beat out Pierre Mcguire for the habs GM job.. Mcguire is American so clearly they weren't only looking at French candidates, but Bergevin was born in Montreal and helped build the best team in the league at the time.. he was pretty much a no brainer to hire.

    As I mentioned in the description, I didn't make this team based off of everything done under Bergevin, I just reversed some of "the more commonly criticized" moves that he has made.
