Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin is usually fairly bust around the trade deadline.
Last season, once the team fell out of the race, he dealt Marco Scandella, Ilya Kovalchuk, Nick Cousins, Nate Thompson and Matthew Peca. Basically, anyone who had an expiring contract and could retrieve any value whatsoever was shipped out.
Last time it was clear the team was going to make the playoffs, Bergevin added Steve Ott, Andreas Martinsen, Dwight King and Brandon Davidson. Hey, I said he was busy, I didn’t say he was great at it every year.
