Marc Bergevin will make his decision tomorrow about Jesperi Kotkaniemi, and if I average the journalists' beliefs on the subject, the chances are about 70% that he will leave the Montreal Canadiens. Bergevin would therefore opt for assets in return to most likely turn on a 10 coins and make a deal in order to bring a 2nd center to his organization.
Eric Macramalla of TSN is actually one of those who rate the odds of KK' departure pretty high, and he shared this once again via the Twitter platform, "Right now, it looks like there's less than a 50% chance they'll match the offer. What do you think?"
Among the comments, I tracked down a Carolina Hurricanes fanatic who decided to express his anger on the head of Marc Bergevin, a man who manages his numbers and his wallet very well. In short, according to this man, a lawyer named Doug Abrams, Bergevin will keep the services of his young Finnish player. Here are the reasons mentioned by this great supporter of Rod Brind'Amour:
"I think Bergevin is too selfish not to match (the offer). It's a no-brainer, objectively, that Bergevin needs to get away from KK, but he's a reckless, self-centered guy, I think. So I think he will match the offer tabled to Jesperi Kotkaniemi!"
Let's calm down a bit, Doug. Bergevin will make the best decision for his organization, as he so often does.
