Congrats Mr. Markie!

Someone remind Pat Kane that he doesn't make 5$ an hour.

Out of all the UFA departures in Montreal, which one saddened him the most?

What did Trevor Timmins tell him to work on for next season ?

Was (or Is?) playing for Gatineau still something you consider? (Gatineau own his junior rights in the Q and apparently are trying hard to get him to come and play for them.) If that question sucks you can always try with what was his most memorable moment at development camp a while back.

Good times...I still hate you Colin.

Didn't Frolov and Cammalleri have some sort of crazy chemistry?

Balsillie could of easily been approved had he not went with the "Look at me, I'm a billionaire and I can do anything I want cause I got money!" Had he played his cards smart, he would bought the Preds or the Coyotes and move them out, without letting his intentions be known beforehand, when the loopholes presented themselves to him. Instead he played his cards on the table from the get-go and pissed off all the owners.

There's a simple ethics code and procedure to follow to become an approved NHL owner. Balsillie took all of that and proceeded to crap on it, set it on fire, piss on it, throw it out the window and then applied to be an owner. Is anyone honestly surprised that this douche bag got rejected?

Habs need to make space for Grier unless it implies that Pacioretty starts the season in Hamilton if this is true. I'd put my money on Detroit signing him thought if it's between the Habs and Wings.

Shhhh I'm just trying to fit in.

My guess is Josh Bailey or Corey Trivino.

J'ai trouvé ben con quand RDS l'a mis en gros titre lorsque Jacques a sorti un album de musique.

Meh, I'm indifferent.

Komisarek leaving makes no sense. He clearly wanted out and an explanation would be nice.

That's ridiculous. The Flames are going to need some serious creativity to add complementing pieces to the team.

Ops, wasn't Edmonton. An un-named NHL team offered him an assistant's job. I don't think it was Colorado since it was based on Roy taking over and that was reported from an unreliable source (ruefrontenac.com).

I thought the Wild wanted Ellis and traded down once Nashville picked him...

I wouldn't put too much stock in the whole fact that he's French. Guy Boucher is highly qualified and if I remember correctly the Oilers offered him an assistant coach job under Pat Quinn and Tom Renney. If that doesn't speak volumes about his craft then I don't know what will considering he basically turned down and NHL job for an AHL coaching gig.

I've seen Dumont play, he plays way bigger than his size. I'm sure Kozed can back me up on this one.

Honestly, I don't think the Leafs would fork over that kind of money for Komisarek. They got Luke Schenn and not to mention they got their Komisarek version last season with Jeff Finger.

To you from failing hands we give this stash of cocaine. Be yours to hide it from Chris Higgins.

Booing the anthems is downright silly and disrespectful. Using the same logic of booing an American anthem because it's Boston, we should be booing the Canadian anthem when the Habs play the Leafs. I never forget the weird looks I get from fans when I sing both anthems when I attend games, especially for the American one. People practically look at me like I'm the devil in person.

Fans have a right to boo like Jean said but the reality is that it's only useful when it's justified. Yes, there's plenty of stupid fans in Montreal and I'd be pissed off as hell too if I had spent 100$ in a playoff ticket to see the Habs suck. The truth is that Price didn't do anything deserving to be booed, he did his job. He didn't cost the team a game but he didn't help them win one either. They all shot themselves in the foot. No one seems to point fingers that the Habs gave Boston throughout the series so many quality chances including a whole bunch of odd man rushes. Meanwhile, all you have to do is look at the other end to notice that the Habs played constant perimeter hockey around Thomas. Doesn't take a genius to figure out who was going to win that series based on the play alone. Like I said, I could understand the booing but get the facts straight before it's done. This is the kind of crap that drives a player out of town and that prevents attracting other good ones.

Never heard of someone being a late bloomer Markie ?
