Marc Bergevin, the Canadiens' former general manager, made some very good moves, but also some not so good ones. We still can't understand how a player like Mike Hoffman, who was on a professional tryout, was able to sign a three-season contract worth $4.5 million annually. But it happened and Kent Hughes must now negotiate with this factor. According to Renaud Lavoie, the CH's current GM could well trade Hoffman by paying a surplus to his buyer. Indeed, Lavoie proposes to trade the number 68 and a third round pick for future considerations.
