Breaking: Marc Bergevin was contacted about Shipachyov!

We reported just under an hour ago that Vegas Golden Knights allowed forward Vadim Shipachyov to talk to other teams about a possible trade. Sportsnet's Eric Engels then suggested that the Montreal Canadiens could be interested in bringing in the 30-year-old Russian forward, but it looks like the Habs aren't willing to make a move.

Just a few minutes after publishing the initial tweets, Engels confirmed that Habs' general manager Marc Bergevin was indeed contacted by Vegas yesterday, but that he had no intention of trading for him:

Well. That was quick. Marc Bergevin was contacted about Vadim Shipachyov's availability yesterday. The Canadiens aren't biting. They're out.

TSN's Bob McKenzie confirmed this information:

For MTL fans thinking Shipachyov may be an option for Habs, don’t believe there is any interest from MTL.

Let's just say this is pretty clear. Did Bergevin make the right call or do you think he should have tried to bring Shipachyov in?
