Here is the response from Marc Bergevin on if he had drafted David Reinbacher with the 5th pick
Wow! TVA Sports journalist, the excellent Anthony Martineau, crossed paths with former General Manager of the Canadiens, Marc Bergevin, at the airport and asked him the famous question that is on everyone's lips in Montreal.
Here is Martineau's post about it:
"I ran into Marc Bergevin at the airport of Nashville.
After the usual greetings, I couldn't help but ask him, 'So, would you have drafted Reinbacher?'
With a smirk, he replied before disappearing into the crowd, 'I don't talk.'"
We would have loved to hear his response; it would certainly have sparked a lot of discussion among the Canadiens' fans.
The question is quite relevant, though. Do you believe that Bergevin and Trevor Timmins would have also selected the Austrian defenseman with the 5th overall pick?
My gut feeling tells me yes because it's a selection that oddly fits the former regime, but that's just my opinion.
