Bergevin refuses to take blame for losing Barré-Boulet to Tampa.

"Not my fault if he decides to sign elsewhere"

Habs offered a one way AHL contract, Tampa offered a two-way contract with him potentially gaining 700k if he plays in the NHL.

When even kids playing in the Q would rather play elsewhere than their childhood team, you know you've (frank)ed up.

There's probably a difference nowadays between the "childhood team" and the team they rather play with... We can't argue that there isn't more pressure of playing in Montreal than in Tampa, for example

He would have been a bust as a Hab. As a Lightning member he will magically become a Marchessault or Gourde.

Bergevin is still an bumhole

This is also true

C'est une saison horrible pour Carey. Mais pour certaines personnes, on dirait que peu importe comment, l'important c'est de lui chier sur la tête.

He's really more of a douchebag than a general manager

Ouin je sais, c'est comme si les gens avaient un malin plaisir à fesser dessus, et quand il performe, ils se ferment la geule.

Il a vraiment une saison de marde, mais de là à dire qu'il vaut rien et qu'il a pas de coeur pentoute... Pousse mais pousse égal

Je pense qu'il est mieux de retourner chez lui, faire le vide et se préparer mentalement pour le draft quand Bettman va dire < titevoixdmarde >We have a trade to announce...< /titevoixdmarde >

The city awaits the next Desharnais

Guy went undrafted, got cut by 2 teams and is having the year of his life at 20 in the Q. Too much is being made of this.

While you may be right, when you admit having interest in a young player, who admits wanting to play with you and you don't even give him the relatively very small amount needed to get him.

It's not like they needed to overpay for him or something, they wanted him and simply didn't do what was needed to get him.

Bergevin is a complete fool.

Yes on the last part. Imagine though he starts the year in Danval with a 2 way contract and even if he's not ready, all year people will be saying BRING HIM UP just because you know

Moi je m'en câlisse tellement qu'il salut la foule après une partie, mais si c'est ça que ça prend pour que le monde se farme la yeule, bin qu'il le fasse osti, c'est pas dur

1: What the hell is Danval?

2: Are you implying Bergevin shouldn't/didn't/wouldn't offer him a two contract because of the enormous pressure he would have from fans to call him up?

You think that arrogant (frank) gives two poops about the fans?

1- dt99999 (dan) lives in laval

2- probably not he's stupid, but i'll give you what you really want. He wanted to sign with toronto but they didn't offer anything so he signed with the team with the closest jerseys to them.

No, I don't think that at all.

C'est toute une gang de girouettes bi-polaires du tabarnak.

L'influence des animateurs morons de la radio pis des Réjean Tremblay de ce monde est assez puissante, assez pour faire capoter ces osties de caves là avec des niaiseries de même. Avant que les Rangers commencent à le faire, y'a pas une équipe qui saluait la foule après les matchs.

As if that poor city didn't have enough trouble already.
