  1. If you trade Subban, you gotta find someone who can replace him. While he isn't that much bigger than Diaz, he plays a more physical game, while also providing essential offense. A great two-way defender, and he hasn't even reached his prime yet. Sure, Diaz is working for now, but what if it stops clicking? Who can take over? Weber? Bouillon? Beaulieu? Kaberle? Weber has had a lot of opportunities to show his worth and he's been sub-par. Beaulieu isn't quite NHL-ready yet and we certainly don't wanna rush him. Bouillon provides some good support on the PP, but he is an older defenseman and doesn't have PK's young energy. As for Kaberle, he could step up if you put him next to Markov, but his age is again a factor that must be taken into consideration. I know that Markov makes anyone he plays with better, but I believe that having PK, who is young, quick and can hit in the lineup is a must. Sure, maybe he annoys his teammates with his over the top attitude but he's got skill. As for the contract, I believe he should man up and take the bridge contract. I hope Bergevin won't give in. Carey Price, a 5th overall superstar goaltender accepted one and so did Max Pacioretty, a prospect everyone knew was gonna be a top 6 talent right from the start. Both are now making big bucks. Subban has done well, but he has yet to prove he is an elite NHL defenseman. If he can take a bridge contract and prove his worth in the next 2-3 years, then he will get what he's worth. I cannot believe that he watched the opening ceremony before the game against Toronto and all 3 games without wishing he was out there with his teammates. If he loves the sport, he will stop being difficult and take a bridge contract to get back on the ice and contribute to this team. As for how many years, 2-3 years at 3.5 million is acceptable.

  2. He sucker punched a known non-fighter after he boarded Josh Gorges.

    White just showed he is willing to do anything to protect his teammates, he didn't mean to get a 5 minute penalty and just lost control. Just needs to get his temper under control and just grab the guy's shirt and shove him a little instead of punching him or drop the gloves with him later on in the game! All I can say is white plays with heart and watches out for his teammates which is what he is required to do, all while winning faceoffs and generating some secondary offense with his line.

  3. Gallagher might be the fastest Canadiens rookie since Valeri Bure.

    I honestly think he will stay the whole season with the Habs. He dominated the WHL, had a good World Juniors where his team won a gold medal last year and had 20 points in 36 games in the AHL on a struggling Bulldogs team. Yeah, he could go back to the AHL but if we can give him the right icetime, I'm sure he would perform very well this year for the Habs.
