Let's hope it crashes and burns spectacularly

Small sample size with 57% of his shifts starting in the offensive zone. Also playing sheltered minutes against third and fourth lines. Hudon is also a career 54.7% Corsi (+4.6 relative to team), with 59% career offensive zone starts and playing against third and fourth lines. There isn't a whole lot of difference. Both have done well with heavily sheltered minutes but don't have the trust of coaches to do more than that.

*meanwhile at the Defenseman Blackjack table* Bergevin: "HIT ME" Julien: "Marc, I have enough guys. You can stop now." Bergevin: "HIT ME, DAMMIT!" Julien: "Please stop." DJ Khaled: "Another one!" Bergevin: " You're god damn right. Hire this man! And HIT ME." fin

I'm not. Probably that Bergevin was offering something like $12M for 2 years. Gardiner has a bit of an anchor contract written all over.

Carolina probably didn't even want Gardiner, but they heard Habs were interested... I don't like Gardiner, but that's a really good contract. There has to be some back issues, those numbers make no sense.
