- Jeff Gorton and Kent Hughes are dedicated to ushering in a new era in the evolution of the Montreal Canadiens particularly in the area of player development. Hughes has committed to putting the resources and supports in place to develop more positive relationships with players to (quote) “get the best out of everyone” and have “everyone pulling together.”
- Pulling together in the same direction wasn’t the case during the tenure of Marc Bergevin. The development of many promising prospects was stunted or left unfulfilled until they moved to other organizations.

salut-bien chers amis allhabs
merci-bien pour le podcast
emmission-excellente
quelques echos d’auditeur?
wish our friend lefty-lindgren best of luck with washington.their gain.our loss.
prospect developement is very important.perhaps the most important element along with evaluation,scouting and drafting.
the foundation for excellence.mr.bergevin’s tenure?short-sightedness,punitif and impatience.some names that come to mind:jared tinordi,morgan ellis,nathan beaulieu,greg pateryn,nikita sherbak,mike macarron,connor crisp entres autres.and dont forget the stable of goalies we once had to deputise under carey.fucale,lindgren,mikey mcniven.to be fair though,mr.bergevin was not a goalie as a player himself.(his goaltender coaches would have the final say,perhaps).and often we would acquire players and neglect our internal kids who were ready to make the next step!in general,we did a good job of evaluating and drafting.however it ended there.we under-developed our players.point a la ligne.criminal!
will it be different with the new regime?
they talk a good line.see how it translates on the ice?
team pcychologist?don’t but that stuff.trying to look into the soul of a teenager to see what makes them tick?unacceptable.whatever happenned to checking references?coaches,family,scouts,referees,opponents and more coaches???
Q.rookie i am most excited about?he hasn’t arrived yet.
his name,dryden mackay,,,
cheers,
