Marc Bergevin it is. I can live with this. So happy it's not McGuire.

Now to wait for the draft where everyone will, years later with the benefit of hindsight, say how they should have drafted someone else... lol

Either way, Habs are not going far soon. Philly's top 3 lines are better then our first. Better hope the defense depth prospects pan out.

A few goalies….maybe some were goalie coaches at one point? Allaire is the first goalie coach I'd ever heard of at the pro level who wasn't ever a pro goalie, (if he ever was a goalie outside of bantam?). I expect there are others. He's got a long teaching resume. As Burke has demonstrated you don't need to be a GM anymore in that position. You hire guys to do that for you and just throw out a ye or nay here and there. I think Allaire could do it.

Interesting choice. I wonder how many goalie coaches have moved to that position and been successful?

Francois Allaire …as the best goalie coach in the world he needs a new challenge.

Risebrough wasn't that great for Calgary. There must be some talent out there better than him.
