With top prospect Cole Caufield tearing up the NCAA, Bergevin was asked about the possibilty of him joining the Canadiens when his season comes to a close:
With respect to the salary cap, it's going to depend on where we're at come the deadline, whenever he's done. There's also the 14-day quarantine. But he's playing really well. Scott Mellanby doesn't live far from Madison, WI, so he's able to drive and watch him play quite a bit, so is Rob Ramage. He has progressed a lot in the last year. Again, it's too early to tell you exactly what the plans are, but expect him to turn pro after this year. Now, where can he play once his season's over? That remains to be seen.
