Let's face it, the former Habs staff liked to have control over their team. In addition to keeping the former GM away from the organization, he always asked his players to stay away from the media.
On this subject, Cole Caufield recently told the new vice-president of communications, Chantal Machabée, that he would never have been able to be him if Bergevin was still in office.
This morning, on 91.9 Sports, Luc Gélinas went even further to demonstrate how former CH executives don't like journalists. He said that Marc Bergevin would have made an incredible request to the league.
"Another piece of information I had in the last few days is that, in the absolute control of the former management, there was a formal request that was made to the league by Marc Bergevin: "It's going really well right now, the way to handle the media, when the pandemic returns, we don't want to have any more media in the locker room." - Luc Gélinas
It's pretty incredible the change that has taken place in the organization since the arrival of the Hughes/Gorton duo and, especially, Chantal Machabée. In addition to respecting the media, the two newcomers seem to want to rebuild the bridge with the organization's old-timers and pick up the pieces. Steve Bégin recently saw this, as Gélinas mentioned.
