  1. I hate to admit it but I was a huge Samsonov fan, but I guess slumps and bad times happen for everyone eh? Sammy would for sure be extremely useful in a trade package, because I'm sure alot of teams are lacking the punch offensively (*cough, cough* Chicago) aaand Aucoin would be a good addition to the Habs blue-line corps because of the UFA Defensemen situation here in Mtl.

    GO HABS GO!!!! I'm sure Bob Gainey will make the right decision.

  2. They will not attempt to recall him.

    It is as simple as this, they are sending him down knowing that if somebody claims

    him his salary is off the books and that if nobody claims him his salary does not

    count against the cap. Either way it is a clear indicator that they are freeing up

    salary to make a move.

    He will finish the season in Hamilton if he clears. Win/Win if you ask me.

    Agreed, but do you guys really think he'll accept going down to the minors? Everyone remember what happened to the Ex-Sens rookie there, I forgot his name :unsure: He was sent down to the minors and rejected the call sparking a suspension from the ppl up in the NHL, I'm sure Samsonov is on his way to the Russian league.

    -->However I think it's an excellent move made by Gainey.

  3. We need to put Kovalev on the top line. He loves long shifts and plays well with Koivu. We need to drop Ryder on the second line. I don't really see him as a first-liner.

    How about these 4 lines?

    Samonov, Koivu, Kovalev

    Ryder, Plekanec, Higgins

    Johnson, Bonk, Lats

    Streit, Lapierre, Murray

    I have to admit I like your lines :lol:

    -->One thing though, where's Perezhogin?

  4. Last year, we only had 2 playersplay all 82 games - Craig Rivet & Mathieu Dandenault. This year, both of them are out of the running an ony 4 players remain. Who will it be? I'll say Johnson and Komisarek.

    ps.. Michael seems to be a lucky name.

    I'm also doing this poll to say that I created the 3000th thread ever in the Habs section. Try not to be too jealous of me.

    Oh man im totally jealous :lol: Congrats to you and HW on the amazing milestone :) also amazing job on the poll i couldn't have done one better myself :P

    -->I voted for Mike Johnson cuzz he's the only one likely to make it all the way to 82 games, but certainly there'll be more players that'll make it to the 82.

    Go Habs Goooooooooooo!!!! :hlogo:

  5. Where did you here that? What happened?

    I read about it in today's Mtl Gazette, Downey didn't say their names but he made it clear to everyone that Higgins and Ryder should have done something.

  6. this one is easy for me. Bonk and Johnny need to stay. They have provided more offense, defense on PK and SH and have great chemistry 5 on 5.

    GO HABS GO!

    Exactly, I couldn't have said it better myself bro :) We need to keep our key players and to me Bonk is one of them just like Koivu, Kovalev etc.

  7. Well, in the offseason he had planned to have surgery on both ankles, one after the other. It would have kept him out until January. Instead, he decided to only have surgery on the ankle in worse shape, so he could start the season. That means he's still playing on an on which ankle doctors said he needs surgery.

    Exactly, that's why the deal is totally not even worth considering. Bob Gainey should should go after some other players on the Flyers roster like Gagné and Kapanen, those players would be a certain asset to the team.
