I heard an interesting suggestion on a MTL radio station (TSN 690), that with Habs owner Moulson publicly stating he 's keeping Bergevin, could it be possible to bring in someone to take over as President of Hockey operation, to oversee high profile decisions. Currently both Bergevin and Moulson share responsibility of Hockey Operations, with Bergevin holding the title of President and General Manager.
As you say, Bergevin has been solid with little moves to tinker the roster (Dale Weise, Byron, Danault, Deslauriers). It could make sense to bring in a new voice that can trump Bergevin's for high profile situations and dealing with star players (letting Markov go, failing to sign Radulov, Subban - Weber deal, trading Sergachev, Price's contract)
The guys at TSN690 had a few names to suggest: Serge Savard, Vincent Damphousse. It's an interesting thought.
