Thread: Fire Bergevin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>Even if he were to do something like that (which just doesn’t happen) what is his motivation for making this decision, and why is it grounds for him being fired?

You’re arguing that Bergevin should be fired for a lineup decision on a depth player that is probably a less that 1% probability that he even made that decision.</div></div>

well if mtl doesn't make the playoffs then he should be fired because it would show that CJ maybe wasn't the problem and i also point to the fact that mtl media really overhyped thisteam and MB. everybody was ready to say that mtl was winning the cup and bergevin is gm of the year and blablabla and i feel like the fact that they were coming back to normal right now pissed off Bergevin. I feel like he still see like Mtl can be a contender this year wihch is not the case

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>“Mete starts playing every game almost”

He was put into the lineup for 1 game after Kulak struggled, played really well, and then played 2 more games before getting taken out of the lineup again. He took 2 borderline penalties, but wasn’t that bad.

Also, all of the decisions in regards to Mete are made by CJ, not by Bergy. So all you’re doing is supporting that CJ deserved to be fired.</div></div>

what makes you think that. we don't know what is going on behind the scenes, if MB feels he has authority on the head coach because he is the GM and its his team them he can decide what he wants. If the head coach doesnz,t agree then he is fired. I said CJ deserved to be fired, but the blame is not all on him imo. Not on Kirk muller also

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>I think Bergevin has a long leash with management and it's been earned. He's constructed a roster that can play almost any style of play and he's managed the cap well. He's draft record is pretty good, and he's been winning a lot of trades by a landslide for a few years. The coaching change should help a lot. I don't think he's on the hot seat at all.

Side note: Romanov hasn't looked good in more than 1 game. Every game against Toronto he's looked out of place and he can clearly be out muscled and passed by with speed. He might need some time in the AHL to develop better before he loses all confidence.</div></div>

don't agree with the fact that he managed the cap well. He has average player evrery where but this makes mtl an average team. They need a star player like eichel ( only one that might be on the market imo) because thats what it takes to win the cup. You need to have guys that are game-changers on your top6 who might get paid more but, a team needs to have cheap depth to compensate for that. You can't have 14M$ on your goaltender and like 10M$ on your third line and top 6 defenceman being paid almost 4M$
