bIueadams 776 Report post Posted November 29, 2021 #BergsDidNothingWrong Goes to the finals. His veteran leader Perry pulls a Hossa on him. His captain Weber retires. His ace goalie Price gets addicted to drugs. Dundon stupidly poaches Kotka. Tatar and Danault go money hunting. The media goes metoo on Mailloux. Molson blames Bergy and Timmins. Then renigs on promises he made to Mellanby who resigns. They shoulda ripped that cheap ale merchant in two. Now Gorton is GM (they will hire a french speaker to be fake GM while Gorton rules from the shadows) I officially renounce my allegiance to the Habs as my girlfriend team. Bergy is a golden god and already said this was probably his last year. Molson did him dirty. Mellanby was promised succession after Bergy and they did him dirty too. I will watch their decent into total crap with great interest. #MarcDidNothingWrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gorton will basically be GM, and the new GM will work with him mutually on management decisions. Essentially just be a French mouthpiece for Gorton. Not the dumbest idea ever. They get to continue with their hokey illusion that it's a french organization and Gorton gets a ton of media insulation. They should honestly just hire a a french dumby with Charisma. A Trudeau of sorts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've always gotten the impression that Dorion and Waddell are patsy GM's, with their owners directing all the big moves. And I've heard that Vancouver owners are way over-involved in the team. This at least seems better than Molson directing things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Totally forgot Waddell was Assistant GM to Holland in 97-98 There was a pic circulating a few months back when Ottawa re-signed Tkachuk of them shaking hands in Dorion's office. Dorion had capfriendly open on his computer in the background. Not laughing at him, cause it's probably more useful than any internal tool they have, I just find it funny to think that these guys are browsing the same stuff as us. Someone should dig through the offseason build-a-rosters and find one that had Suter in it so we can figure out what Yzerman's handle is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
