Do you know what our current payroll is? The current roster just does not have enough depth to go much farther than they did this year I'm afraid.

Not sure how the rest of you feel, but I'd love to see Bob bring in Shanny for a couple of years, even if he has to overpay in the 5 - 5.2 million range. He would open up a ton of space for Kovalev and would bring a ton of experience to a team that doesn't have a lot of it right now. Dump Ribs and his 1.9 million for nothing if need be to clear up some space (assuming Saku is ok to play). Shanny and Muller played together for the Devils between 87 and 91 I believe. Anyone disagree?

WIN IT FOR LITTLE SAKU!!!!

i feel sick over this. the captain of our team is in the hospital and it could be bad. to be honest, i've lost interest in winning this series, and just want the guy to be ok.

want an interesting stat? we have one player in the top 100 scorers. one. ONE! and he's tied with god-damned yannick perrault for number of points.

let's be realistic - no one will trade anything for theo now. he's broken. as a result, the habs are broken. i think we fans need to face the facts here: if we want a richards, bertuzzi or any quality goalie, it won't be in exchange for underachieving overpaid players (insert usual suspects names here). it will cost us koivu, kovalev, ryder or some of our young guns. that is the only realistic scenario. if you want meaningful short term change, its the only way. personally, id prefer to see gainey try and be a cautious seller. screw the playoffs - you think this team is soft now, wait and see what happens if they squeak into 8th place. they will get smoked. make a move in the summer (how great would it be to see chara in a habs uniform?). give the rooks a ton of ice for the rest of the year. i know lots of you are sick of rebuilding, but this thing is broken and can't be fixed by trading losers at this time of year.....
