    True, but when you’re responding to someone who expresses openly misogynist views, invoking daughters/sisters/wives is a valid way to try get them to reconceive of women as human beings. That’s why this rhetorical device continues to be used, and maybe even continues to be necessary. 

    Agree if u are responding to someone personally perhaps.. But to write in media where All are reading. My GF was quite pissed at hearinge reas outloud Gelinas RDS reporter state that he too has a daughter etc. It's like saying I to have a gold fish, a cat a dog and that's why I relate....

  2. Another thing.

    Stating that one has daughters and sisters and wives etc ....as a reason to be ashamed and upset about this is in itself Wrong and outdated misogynistic vocabulary. Any human any being with legal and moral rights should be respected and treated with decency.. ( this is what pisses off feminists and humanists the most... That the basis of having loved ones that are women justifies why now you are upset.)

  3. I'm trying to understand the difference in terminology and language used by different mediaon this Mailloux.

    Luc Gelinas stated in french on RDS that he is a "sexual abuser" 

    Mailloux has been charged . I need to see the term used in Sweden but in the English articles it says "defamation" & "violation of privacy"

     

    I think the kid needs to be made an example (unfortunately for him) but to put him side by side with a sexual abuser and drag the Habs organization to the depths is in my view irresponsible and perhaps even lawfully punishable

  4. Greetings Guys
    This thread should return to discussing Lord Perry

     

    He's a mentor for C Caulfield (when the camera shows them talking you see how CC listens to him attentively) =>  Resign Perry for at least another year if not 2 

     

     

    Ok and now for my shamanish BS:

    1- We "Sacrificied" a Q born Player in Drouin for the Habs' Ghosts (just in c... j'suis Quebecois)
    2- We got "extreme" rookies in playoffs (i.e. a la P. Roy)

    3- We Got the Big 3 (4) 

    4- We have "THEE" Goalie

    5- Haven't seen Youppi....anywhere!

     

    When we win this cup with Perry we will have to retire his 94

     

    Now forget all the above .....Not to be discussed until parade day

  5. Hey all
    been lon time
    For PLD I think Drouin +KK + Pick is too much IMO
    I would lower it to R.Poehling instead of KK.   Although Id keep Drouin on the team until his value rises.
    But like most have said here... I would wait for a mid-end season if not summer, and hope the value of our players increases

  6. speaking of worsening trend.... If the Islanders keep slipping out of reach of the 8th spot, then Tavares' chances of being traded or going UFA will grow.

     

    Therefore the rebuild/retool from the Habs management needs to be maximized at the draft date - or come July first at the latest.

    This means two things: the present top wingers/forwards need to come out of their shells. Hence a repeat of yesterday's performance against the Islanders needs to become something consistent until the end of the season, Logically this will translate into more wins than loses. And this would mean we will not get a top 5 pick.

    If this doesn't happen (and the draft pick is >8th place) then the habs need to trade picks to get high profile players to add to the team to convince Tavares or any other Messiah to join the Habs.

     

    But logically both scenarios together need to happen (good finish of season and good trades and UFA pick ups) 

    Certain recent articles point at MB giving the moon and stars to Tavares...AND I AGREE but it depends of the player to want to accept this.

    Imagine for a moment... Marc on his knees telling Tavares that the Habs have been waiting for him for 20 years TWENTY YEARS.  Tavares would go down in history - regardless of the outcomes of the next 8 years at 13 millon (or whatever max) per season-  It takes a hell of a pair of cojones to say yes to that... But if he did ..boy what a tremendous moment for player and franchise.

    We got a 2nd because we took back  50% of his contract. Other wise it would of been a 3rd.

     

    But I can't wait to see the media here in Toronto talk good about Plekenec after years of not. Should be interesting.

    3

    exactly Metallica, that 50% was key

     

    All in all Happy with what MB did. we got what we paid for... Plek is likely gonna live in a hotel room or at Polak's guest room... and he and family can travel more easily between cities than winnipeg or the US... 
    On a side note to what if Markov had the same treatment.... the difference is Rick Curran.. .i.e Pleky had an agent

  8. because the real question is who replaces Bergevin?  will Brisebois really do better? and if not who else is on the list??? ..WE should follow what Toronto did....no doubt and no alternative really IMO... I do think we need a new president that's for sure... Molson has to go back to making watery beer

  9. I think Molson realizes he is stuck. Because frankly apart from raising your hopes, what does a new GM really bring? Your still stuck with the mandatory francophone GM who will hire another francophone coach -- if the following year Julien cant reship it..  Molson is gonna have to still compensate MB -and remember molson is still paying million or two for the previous coach. There is something F---ed in Mtl... The taxes the media... thats scare UFAs, the only real solution is getting better drafting IMO..  so im more and more inclined to be a Pro-tanker

    I’d have a heart attack if MB moved galchenyuk for Letang that has been suggested.

    Good grief .....would he cost more than a player?  Letang is arguably at his lowest value ever... Given How Pitsburg is tight on cap wouldnt Letang go for less then a Galchenyuk?

  11. With none of the desired roster assets going to arrive to MTL via Trade we have no choice but to trade for picks or sloppy seconds or lets just sat risky players

    So if its very --very unlikely to get a top roster player then what could MB more realistically do or (Allah forbid he really does)

     

    What candidates do you FEAR MB will end up trading for?

    Im thinking Kris Letang will end up being one posibility 

  12. lol good grief where did i say that right shot is the solution.. and your stating the obvious

    11 or so min ago when i wrote boy do they need a right shot was at that moment during their aguably best moment of that period where a pass to the guy in the slot couldnt shoot cause he was on his backhand.

    A right shot would fix it though.

    Our centres are garbage. 

     

    There is a real lack of mobility on defence, and Petry is the only top 4 worthy guy on the ice right now, with Weber's injury.  Even with Weber healthy we are missing two top 4 D.

    Can't kill penalties.

     

     

    But sure... its the right shot.  

     

     

     

    On second thought dont keep watching... the pain and anguish we all feel is affecting you

    I wonder how much crap Galchenyuk would be in if he was playing Center and made that same doosday drop pass...

    his doomsday drop pass i can sort of live with,.... its his "oh no im too tired to skate back to try and fix my mistake" that is the basis why hes never going to merit C position
