When the rumors were circulating about Marc Bergevin, we heard good things about the GM, despite a catastrophic start to the season.
Today, and since he was kindly fired, his way of doing things is being reviewed and his management is practically described as being from the dinosaur era...
Moreover, Eric Macramalla of TSN, among others, has bluntly picked up Marc Bergevin publicly, proving how little love he has for him.
"Jeff Gorton said he will modernize the Canadiens' hockey operations (analytics, nutrition, etc.). It's a welcome plan even if it raises the question of why Bergevin hasn't been able to do it. Like bringing a knife to a gunfight. That aside, the future is bright for the Canadiens."
"Because Bergevin has not modernized. He's gone back to the old way of looking at hockey: no analysis, no D-men moving the puck, a lot of guts, a lot of macho fighting between him and his star players. Gorton is a breath of fresh air."
