  1. I think your ratings are too high.

    Not enough proven scorers to warrant an A- for offense, B or B-.

    Our Defense is adequate, C+.

    Theodore hasn't played two good seasons in a row yet, and no one knows how Danis will play at NHL level, B-.

    Size? (I'm guessing you mean physical players.) Dude, 5 of the 8 guys listed in your first paragraph are minor leaguers. Only one of them will make the Habs this year. Yes, the team is bigger than last year, (Bonk, Kovalev, new goon) but not by much. However, your rating is almost spot on (in my opinion,) B- for the optimist, C+ for the pessimist.

    Depth we mostly agree on. D depth is practically nonexistent, and this years draft didn't help that. Offensively and...Goaltendingly...I agree with you. But I'm going with a B+

    Total: B-. We aren't an A team. An A team finishes top 4 in their conference, and I don't see that happening for the Habs. Now take your same ratings and apply them to the team a year or two from now and I'm betting they'll be more accurate.

  2. Breezer is gone. Who to boo next?

    I'm gonna go with Rivet. He'll be the source of all the Canadiens problems, beat women, scorn children, and prevent world peace (all while twirling his mustache and stroking a kitten.)

    Who do you think is next on the Habs fans shit list?

    Theodore got 16 over 3 years.

    4.5 this year

    5.5 next year

    6 in the final year of the contract.

    So what does that do to our cap room?

    Isn't it the average overall, rather than 4.5 this year, 5.5 the next, etc etc?

    Where the site gets it's numbers I don't know, but it looks like the Habs are at 34,368,933, with 4,631,067 to spare.

  4. I'm taking this game of Pick A Devil and making it just a bit more serious.

    Info brought to you by TSN:

    Martin Brodeur - $5,237,238

    Brian Rafalski - $4.2 million

    Patrik Elias - $4.18 million

    John Madden - $3,861,561

    Vladimir Malakhov - $3.6 million

    Alexander Mogilny - $3.5 million

    Jeff Friesen - $2.28 million

    Scott Gomez - $2.2 million

    Dan McGillis - $2.2 million

    Viktor Kozlov - $1.746 million

    Colin White - $1.71 million

    Jamie Langenbrunner - $1,655,130

    Sergei Brylin - $1.52 million

    Richard Matvichuk - $1.368 million

    These are the top money makers for New Jersey.

    Their cap is currently $43,748,929.

    Obviously a trade like Bonk for Friesan doesn't work because the salaries are too close. So what's a fair trade for both teams, but lowers the Devils overall salary?

    You don't have to knock them all the way down to below the cap, and certainly don't knock us over ours.

    I don't understand you people!

    If he's "most likely" going to surprise us than it's not much of a surprise is it?

    That reminded me of a George Carlin bit on Self Help books.

    "If you're looking for help, why would you read a book written by someone else? That's not self help, that's help. There is no such thing as self help. If you did it yourself, you didn't need help. You did it yourself! Try to pay attention to the language we've all agreed on!"

    Nah, bring back Lindros's brother instead and call them the Concussion Crew.

    As for the crazy three-way Toronto trade that is out there...

    Toronto Gets: G Roberto Luongo + D Jay Boumeester

    Florida Gets: C Mats Sundin + First Round Pick

    the Toronto turning around

    Tampa Bay Gets: G Ed Belfour + 3rd Round Pick

    Toronto Gets: F Brad Richards

    And Last but not least has

    Toronto Gets: G Mathieu Biron or G Mika Noronen ( Most Likely Noronen)

    Buffalo Gets: D Ken Klee

    [Edited on 2005/8/26 by Leafs Suck]

    Worth noting is that Eklund himself said these rumours are complete crap. Something like a Eminus5 rating.
