We're talking about a guy who played on the top line for Team Canada... twice. He won a gold medal and a World Championship. A guy who's won 4 Selkes. A guy who was the clear favourite for the Conn Smythe if Boston won in 2013.
The term "drive by" is now synonymous with an opinion that I don't like but don't care to address directly.

No the term drive by is when someone can’t be bothered to actually back up what they are saying and instead just states something as fact
In this case I don’t think the poster was even saying they are on the same levels but rather using Bergeron as a comparison point including from a salary point of view
You made the leap in terms of what he was saying and ignored everything else
If you don’t like being labeled with the term drive by then stop driving by
