Markov79 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Hey all:) Wouldn't it be something if the Habs signed Malakhov? I clearly remember that Blackhawks/Habs game 4 years ago when Renaud Lavoie asked Malakhov (who was just traded to the Devils the same night) if he would ever consider coming back to Montreal... His response? ''never'' Bob Clarke did say he was his best defenseman in the playoffs! LOL Sorry but seeing Malakhov as a UFA I'm sure I'm not the only one who imagined how wacky and unreal it would be if we signed him:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33_ Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Wow, over a year between posts. I have never cared for his attitude. Going skiing shortly after a knee injury doesn't exactly scream "team." He was good, but how old is he these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAussiePosse Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 I was a big fan until the skiing incident. That kinda ruined things. However, while I am keen on Hainsey (or Archer) taking a shot with the big team, if we can get Malakhov for 2 million or under, I'd do it. Another Russian for Markov couldn't hurt, and might even aid in bringing back Kovalev. He's always been one of the strongest players in the NHL (Chara's since taken over, but no surprise). With Souray, Malakhov, Komisarek and Rivet clearing the net, and Markov, Brisebois and (again) Souray providing solid offense from the blueline, we could do quite well. I doubt he'll come back, and if he does, we might have some more boo-birds (who haven't forgiven him for '99-'00). But if he does, I'll support him.

Markov79 Posted July 23, 2004 Author Share Posted July 23, 2004 Hehe come on the Aussiepossie I was just kidding, there's no way in hell that the Habs even think about signing him! The whole city hates his guts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycing Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Lol... sign Alexie Zhitnik!!!! Malakov and Brisebois could go on "vacation" together if he came back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I found him the most beautifull skating big player to watch and his first pass is a model of perfection. I would watch Phillys during the last playhoff just to watch him and his compatriot "zhamnov" moving on the ice, there's something about most Russian skater that mesmerize's me. With Kostitsyn and Perezhogin up coming, life is good...as for Kovalev, well,.. I prefer not to thinck to much about him.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribeiro Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I was a big fan until the skiing incident. That kinda ruined things. Lol, I think that's funny. It's like Ryan Leaf playing golf during his NFL injury. I'd rather have Weinrich back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinna Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I would take Malakhov over Zhitnik any day. And I would prefer neither. :hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
