The Montreal Canadiens' encore to their Stanley Cup Final appearance last season has been an abject disaster, as they have a 6-15-2 record. With general manager Marc Bergevin in the last year of his contract, having not signed an extension, it felt like regime change was coming.

Owner Geoff Molson announced that Bergevin, assistant general manager Trevor Timmins and senior VP of communications Paul Wilson were all "relieved of their respective functions" with the franchise.
