  1. I only caught the first period. I will say, I wasn't as impressed with the early "miraculous glove save" as most. It was predicated by a really bad rebound on what was a mediocre save on the shot from the face-off dot. He basically cleaned up his own mess. Nice push to get there in time, but in reality, it shouldn't have happened in the first place. Of course, Anderson was complete crap on his back check, so Texier shouldn't have even been able to get the shot off, either.
  2. Pending no other moves, and excluding the unlikely conditions, this makes the Habs deadline: OUT: Monahan Allen Mysak IN: 1st round pick WPG 2024 3rd round pick NJD 2025 Perreault Net Salary difference for 24/25 -1,925,00, although another retention slot used. That's the first retention slot used on a player contract originated by Hughes.
  3. Agreed with the other comments regarding Jake Allen. A consummate pro, and I have nothing bad to say about his time with the team. I will admit to being a bit bummed that he moved on, for moderately selfish reasons. Jake is good friends with one of my son's current hockey coaches. I was looking forward to my son potentially having the opportunity to meet an active player on his favorite team in a few weeks, and of course bonus points for a youth goalie to get to meet an active NHL goalie!
  4. There is zero chance of Kotkaniemi imploding any future chance of playing in the NHL if the Canes were to buy him out. If he came out and said there was collusion, he would never play in the NHL again.
  5. Habs get Jacob Perreault for Mysak.
  6. Bergevin? The "if you want loyalty, buy a dog." guy? Hughes kept his gentleman's agreement with Monahan about trading to a contender when he signed his one year deal. Also handled the Petry trade request with aplomb. It was noticed. https://montrealgazette.com/sports/hockey/nhl/hockey-inside-out/stu-cowan-canadiens-hughes-tried-to-do-the-right-thing-trading-jeff-petry-again Not sure who the "bunch of others" that he apparently didn't treat right would be.
  7. Stats would suggest the opposite. Both are over PPG average when the team wins (Suzuki, 30pts in 22 games, Caufield 24pts in 22 games). They are definitely not piling up points in losses, scoring at a much lower rate. (Suzuki, 25 pts in 36 games, Caufield 22pts in 36 games).
  8. Didn't we have a similar trade like that? Sharks or Kings a few years back. Seem to remember an old trade where they just had to change locker rooms.
  9. I seem to remember minor rumblings around the Habs signing White after the Sens bought him out. Not there's any relevancy of that story to the waiver claim today.
  10. Columbus shoulda fired J.D too. Has he ever been a successful executive?
  11. Ultimately the goal was a legal play. The cross check was not legal. I have zero problem with how the puck entered the net. Quite honestly, I did not know that there was a "code" on how a goal is supposed be scored. To feel disrespected about how someone buried an empty netter is laughable. There is no winner in this argument, though. Defending the Sens or defending the Leafs feels a bit dirty.
  12. It would have been kind of funny had the Habs also reacquired their 2024 2nd round pick from the Jets. That is a well traveled pick...first to AZ, then to LA, then to the Jets.
  13. Condition on the '27 third rounder is if the Jets win the Cup.
  14. I don't expect anything significant for Pearson, I guess from my standpoint, is there any value in retention there vs retention on Monahan. Probably not, but we do know that there are GMs out there that value the playoff experience and Cup rings.
