Karine Hains: Change of Tone and Gymnastics As he does each year at the start of camp, Canadiens GM Marc Bergevin spoke to the media yesterday and had a couple of interesting things to say…

à la fin de la journée chus fier d'avoir sélecté les gars qu'on l'a faite

Don't put Lehkonen on waivers

had another GREAT run

currently drinking a BAFC

that's a lot of blogs!

I'll read it.

I clicked on the blog, it's a long one. Can I get a summary of your summary?

I had a colleague (let's call call him Andrew) at work who could not keep an email under at least 5 paragraphs, he just could not help it.

He once attended a short meeting on behalf of our VP, following that meeting our VP sent him a quick note and copied some of us, basically requesting a short summary in bullet form on what was the outcome. Andrew responded with about 12 paragraphs of none sense.

My former VP responded to all copied with the following: Please provide a summary of your summary, thank you.

Other than Ottawa (sorry for them), I only see good teams in that division. It won't be easy. But I like the changes Bergevin made.

One thing to worry about, is how long it will take for the chemistry to take place with that many new players. And not a lot of time to prepare (they won't even play before the season start).


I think you may be right with the strategy of going with Tatar, Danault and Gallagher and then you figure the rest out. At least those 3 guys know each other well, it was working fine so go with that at least from the start and figure out the rest.

Hopefully there won't be too many covid cases, cause they won't be in a full closed bubble like they were this summer.

I think this is a big reason for the taxi squad and to bring in guys like Frolik and Perry.

Based on my reading of a few threads on HB, the Leafs will finish the season with 114pts in 56 games, Flames, Nucks and Oilers will easily qualify and the Habs will battle with Wpg and Ottawa for a lottery pick.

I think I should win HB's best poster.

All I need is that someone fetches me 11,780 votes

I'll sign whatever you want as long as it keeps me on tv and out of prison for another 4 years

thoughts on the Warnock video?

I like those first four lines.

Ideally we'd have a better option than Armia on that line but it's the lines I would roll

Third best line in the ENTIRE LEAGUE maybe.

You have a 41 year old playing on your team's first line.

Take a hike.
