Regardless of the market he operates in, he has made some horrible decisions and has completely neglected the drafting and development aspect of the team despite continued promises to do otherwise.IMO Bergeron would do very well as GM in a non-traditional hockey market. Just as it takes the rarest of players to be successful in Mtl, so too will it take the even more rarest of GMs IMO, I actually don’t think any of the other present 30-GMs would have achieved more success in place of Bergevin. As Habsy says, move the Habs to a southern US market and they likely achieve instantaneous success.
I’m curious to see how the next few years plays out for the Leafs - they were able to lure Marleau but not Green. 50-50 luring rate will help them achieve success but if it falls to to 30% might become problematic.
