Marc Andre Bergeron

I really don't understand the praise this guy has been receiving. Since he came to Montreal, ostensibly to bolster the power play, I have watched one pass to the point after another go right past him, into the neutral zone. Last night, he was saved by a lucky penalty call when he coughed up the puck on a horrible stickhandling play at his own blue line. This team leads the league in giveaways, and he is one of the worst offenders. If the Canadiens do make the playoffs, it almost a sure thing that some opponent will score at least one goal because of a Bergeron giveaway.

And if it isn't Begeron, it will definitely be Gomez.


Aw hell, Habs won last night, so I shouldn't be too tough on them. But Jeez!
