I do feel that the best way to get that point across to Mr. Molson is to not buy New Habs merch. this upcomming year (edit) I can't afford tickets. I would rather use that money for New gear of Team Canada (as I am Canadian) or give that money to a second hand sports (or) clothing store to get any 'new' Habs gear. I will be helping a local capitalist enterprise that is (hopefully) run by a mom and pop and I will help them get food on the table maybe even a little beer to go with it for the end of their day. Mr. Molson spends Millions on this team (with a little new money from my house) every year. If he choses to keep MB around, then I will reserve and limit as much as possible any new money to this man. I have no choice with cable bill (or do I?) but where I do; I will object as much as I can. I have a choice with new Habs gear this year and I think ppl Need to see that Mr. Molson is like any other Rich guy. The Only Way to drive a point to them: is to HURT the Pocket BooK!

Toronthab Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I only have my limited and very generalized notions.. more impressions than thoughts on these matters. I am not a competent judge of competent judges in hockey management matters. That said.. and perhaps utterly contrarily to actual reality, I have zero confidence in Bergeron. You don't trade your soul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not intentionally - remember our brilliant GM said he thought the defence would be better last year and that Drouin was a viable #1 centre. There were also a lot of people here who this time last year said they didn’t think there was any reason why we couldn’t win the division or at least put up 100 points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can look at 17-18 season prediction thread for that. (I said 4 in the east 103pts and you said 96pts 7th in East) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price sucked and I was apparent how awful they are unless Price is a hart candidate. I also said repeatedly in numerous threads how bad the D would be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IN THE HEARTS OF MEN Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 at the end of the day... MB inherited a team with a -future hart trophy winner -future norris trophy winner -future 4 time 30+ goal scorer -a veteran LD puck mover who would be press for all time habs D record stats (if not for 2 major knee surgeries and some lost seasons to lockouts) - a heart, soul and guts player like gallagher -plus and a 3rd overall pick... and he completly shi*t the bed! what he's done to move this team forward with those assets is what deserves an F and i believe with all that in mind, know body can justifiably defend him... sure he was able to sign radulov for 1 year but botched his resigning... sure he was able to steal danault... pick up byron.... but as well as his depth moves have been at times the real assessment of your body of work is with the impact players!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen...any organization worth its salt would have flushed this turd down the john by now. Hell, when a GM is tasked with a full-blown rebuild, they usually get 5-6 years to show that they've built a contender or near-contender. This guy is handed excellent, top-end pieces and in 6 years builds a bottom-feeding laughing stock. The only way he actually did his job is if he was hired by the Boston Bruins to destroy the Canadiens as a threat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
