Yes his intent was good but MB failed and now he is a GM of one of the worst teams in the league and with Price injured I dont see things getting better unless MB has alot of luck and Lindgren will be a surprise. Fire him already.

How about being crazy and try that Galchenyuk guy from the 4th line as a C on one of the top2 lines?

How about Mark Recchi? He could also fill in as doctor. ?

Me too... Ask Snow how much for Tavares and then offer him a bit more just to stop potential bidding war haha. thing is it is hard to not think about Price struggling now... If Price plays like hart trophy-Carey I am sure it is a harder trade to make. i remember Theodore stinking after signing his big contract with us we managed to dump him fast... I hope Price is not the next Jose Theodore. With Prices contract we are doomed if he is. ?

Not sure what you expect MB to do about a young kid getting a serious illness...

Saku Koivu? Hehe

I hope they dont wait until we are out of the playoffs to fire him... A gm in panicmode to save his job could be very dangerous to this teams future. Give him 5 more games and tell him to show at least 8 points from these games. If not he can clean his desk and go to scout the qmjhl or something.

Starting to feel now that maybe I was a bit optimistic.

Fire Bergevin before he does more damage to this team.

Not so fun really... it really proves what a bad gm MB is. Claiming to go for the cup and being a contender and then not being able to use all that cap on important parts of the team? Unless Molson is short on cash (wich I dont think is the thing) and has told MB to keep low on salarys this might be one of the worst off seasons by a habs GM in the salary cap era of the NHL. I hope he is fired before he does more damage to the team but it seems unlikely. Im sure Galchenyuk will soon be traded at his lowest ever value and then he will be a constant 25-30 goal scorer for another team while we continue to sink.

Heres hoping for a catastrophe season for the isles and chaos in their lockerroom and Tavares being traded to us at the deadline or earlier. ?

42-30-6-4 94 pts 4th in division 9th in the east 201 goals

Did they even concider trying Chucky with Pacs and Drouin? He scored 30 just a year ago and still management treat him like dirt. If they are going to trade him then at least give him a chance to work on his trade value.

At least Lindgren will have a great chance to show himself tonight if he have a good game...

Reading about Hudon here makes me feel really happy Vegas didnt pick him. I hope they will give him a real chance this year.

Maybe Molson is broke.

Im just scared Giroux will turn into another Gomez. But at this point I guess we cant afford to not take a risk. As long as we dont give up Chucky for him.

Maybe we have the cheapest top6 forwards in the league? And the most expensive bottom 6...

Im scared thinking it might be Chucky for Giroux and I wouldnt be surprised seeing MB adding valuable pieces as well... Mark Recchi trade all over again.

Soooo 4M/year + the 1M wasted on Hemsky + the 700k on Streit is 5.7M. I would rather have Markov for that than the other two.

Resigning Markov for one year makes no sense?

8.5M in caproom, Markov willing to accept a oneyeardeal and MB declining? He better have a Tavares or something coming in before season starts or he should be fired.

Maybe we will save the caproom for the deadline, hope we are still in the playoffs and then swoop in and trade for Tavares who the Isles are desperate to trade away because they cant reach a deal. With our capspace we dont have to dump a crappy contract in that trade and then we resign Tavares to 8 year 10.5M/year deal! Make it happen MB! ?

Galchenyuk + Shaw for Duchene I would do that.

Im not sure we need a rebuild if the team is handled correctly. If Drouin, Galchenyuk, Gallagher, Lehkonen stays that is 4 young good players. Keep Price his whole contract and we have some good cornerstones. Problem is if MB can turn a corner and start to really handle this team better. Better development of the prospects, stop signing bottom liners to crazy money and somehow manage to fix the D and C positions. Maybe the best that can happen is if we have a losing season and MB is fired before he start doing idiotic trades to try and save his job. And then we are seller at the deadline. Buyers and the ufa and draft.
