As we know, the Canadiens' former player and general manager, Serge Savard, has never been shy about expressing his opinions and criticizing the team's management over the past few years.
And it is not tomorrow that this will change.
It's unclear what may have happened over the past few years, but the former member of the famed Big Three was very optimistic that things may well change with the new management in place, and he wouldn't be surprised if the old-timers were able to regain more of their footing in the near future.
This is not the first time that Savard allows himself to criticize Marc Bergevin on his management of the team during his time as general manager of the team. During an appearance on the show Tout le monde en parle in the fall of 2019, he had criticized the culture of the team, when the Habs missed the playoffs and Bergevin was satisfied with the season of his team.
Ironically, Savard had been hired by Geoff Molson to be part of the hiring committee for the Habs' new general manager in 2012 and he even said he tried to contact Marc Bergevin afterwards and never got a response.
