Their 1st rounder next year? They'll be Stanley Cup favourites in November and a top-5 pick by season's end.
-
Id be happy to pay Weaver more than 1M and play him in the top 6. Sheesh. Unless we're players in the UFA market, we look somewhat thin on the back line. I know everyone is dreaming about our kids, but I'm still not convinced. Love to be proven wrong, but.
-
Why Cube and not Weaver? I don't get that.
-
If Ehrhoff is so good, then why was he traded for a fourth and then a conditional 7th? Seems to me his stock is plummeting and the Sabres don't even want to pay him $4m. And while he got points on the worst team in a while, did he do that because he was incompetent defensively?
-
Anyone know if we're in on Jiri Sekac?

I've pushing for Kane since before the jets finally fired Noel. I think they want guys that can play now, rather than prospects though. Pleks-gorges-moen-pateryn-1st for Kane-bogasian is what I'd offer.
Don't need to go anywhere near that high. Kane's value is plummeting. We're talking picks and prospects here and maybe a serviceable forward.
-
Word out of Ottawa (here) is that Spezza had all the western Canadian teams on his list of no-trade. Montreal and TO were okay. Of course, trading for this guy is kinda like trading for a big, fuzzy bunny.
The O'Reilly situation could force the Avs hand on Stastny. He's smaller than Spazza but is a lot more consistent.
-
I suspect Bergevin will be kicking the tires on Kane. Lots of displeasure with the player in the Peg and while they don't want to give up on him, they may need to get something for him before his stock potentially drops lower. Doubtful it's even a roster player, at this point, or if it is, it won't be an impact player.
-
Interesting. Explain why - ?
He's small, soft, doesn't really go in the corners, and while he has slick hands, he doesn't consistently use them. I suppose as a bottom-6 guy he's okay, but really, we already have Bournival, and while the latter's hands are made more of stone, he plays harder. I'd be really disappointed picking up Jokinen - other than watching him in the shoot-out.
-
My gawd. Jokinen would frustrate the hell out of almost everyone here. Pass.
-
I hope Therrien has a case of The Macallan 25-year for Carey Price. I'm not convinced. What were we, bottom-5 in puck possession? Doesn't inspire confidence.

Dallas sucks.

MB's presser today:
1. Goes to podium and stands behind table.
2. Picks up microphone from the standing position.
3. Pauses and drinks in the anticipatory silence in the room.
4. Drops the mic and walks out.
Presser done.

Whoa. We we from a lottery pick team to bonified contenders. If Washington wins are we lottery fodder again?
-
Latendresse returns to Montrela from the Swiss league where he was trying to rebuild his career - after suffering yet another concussion during practice. He was given his outright release. He refuses to call it a career... yet.
-
New headliner question for the thread. Who will score their second before DD does?
-
Try to see from another perspective. Maybe the group knows Desharnais is having a hard time and Pacciorety (arguably one of the players that can impact the most) is trying to boost his morale by tying Desharnais in a key role.
If that's what it is - Pax supporting DD by saying whatever it takes - then great. But I heard Pax, and his tone did nothing to convince me he wants to be without DD.
-
So, since we only ever have one line that's working on any given night, which is it tonight?
-
From their recent interview remarks, it sounds like that's what he and MaxPac sing to one another in the shower.
I'm a little concerned with Pax's statements - almost insinuating that he's a product of DD. So, does he slump (or pout?) when he's not on a line with DD? Not sure I've seen such co-dependent teammates.
-
Now that Desharnais has bagged some assists, I think this thread has become a bit unfair. DD isn't a goal scorer, so holding a lack of goals against him is judging him by the wrong standard (this was also true of Gomez, incidentally). If he can build on the Minny game to become, once again, a tolerably productive playmaking C, then this thread should be put behind us IMHO.
What is this "unfair" concept you're pushing here? What part of Montreal Canadiens do you not understand?
Desharnais scored 10 goals last season. Everyone in this poll scored 10 goals combined last season. The poll stays.
*drops the mic and walks away*
*snap snap* Uh huh!
Well I'll just continue posting progressively worse thematic songs until the thread's subject is resolved, thank you very much Mr. Cucumber.
Throw in suggestions of homoeroticism to make Colin happy and you've got yourself a casserole.
I like casserole!
-
He didn't score, but I bet he sang the song in the showers anyways. It also may have been a duet with Patches.
And how does that make you feel, Neech? Does that make you jealous?
-
So, the key to winning in the future: hammer Patch into the glass where it curls to the bench thus simulating his near-death experience and engaging his Wolverine Rage Factor.

Thanks refs. Good to know that at least you can help beat Carey Price. Don't want his ego or stats too inflated. Hey, why not make up another call or two while you're at it. Oh, no time left? Next time. Next time. ers.
-
Wow. I wanna play in the NHL so I too can do whatever I want to Subban and get away with it!
And somehow Briere gets a penalty for.. well I dunno what that was.

Looks like Mtl potentially has a specific target and needs the cap space. Interesting.
