Happy birthday Therrien!
Wow, team sending a message?

Do teams like Chicago ever have games like this?

I find it funny that before the PK Weber trade all the experts at TSN loved poking holes in Pk's game, always saying he was dynamic but to inconsistent and prone to errors. Weber was always highly praised and there was no way Subban could be better than Weber. Now since the trade, it seams that PK's stock at TSN has skyrocketed and there's no way he isn't better than Weber. Not saying I agree or disagree but just that the media seamed to really change their tune fast after the trade.

He was thought to have a bit offensive upside when he was picked. I'd imagine they viewed him as the big shutdown centre of the future that could score ten goals a year or so as well.
He only just turned 21 and has already played in the NHL. Should we be so quick to dismiss the possibility of offensive improvement. He was and early 2nd rounder.

Could you imagine if this happens at the bell center?
Funny how nobody on the bench even reacted. Just a lil glance from a single teammate.

this move had nothing to do with hockey (it makes no sense in hockey terms) and everything to do with the egos of our idiot-assed coach and our worthless putz of a GM.
That is exactly how this looks to me. Patrick Roy 2.0.
I wish we could hear the truth from players like Pacioretty, Gallagher and Price instead of the constant stream of BS from Bergevin.

Friends... I have been very quiet for a few years. As I have always felt the discussion on this forum has been bang on in dealing with all the issues our beloved Canadiens have faced in the last few years...
The Subban trade has me, upset, confused, angered, betrayed.
upset because we needed more much more in return for Subban. and dam it look what New Jersey did landing T. HALL. ( this trade is missing a major extra piece )
confused because the habs have once again traded a STUD! player in his prime. ( shades of Roy! )
angered because they could not find a way to make it work with Subban ( don't tell me there were no issues here, clearly there were issues, leadership must take responsibility for this and the only way I will accept anything moving forward from this leadership team is when they come clean about Subban and WHY!!! what went wrong with him in their opinion... )
betrayed because we made a 9 million dollar commitment per season to a player telling him we loved everything about what he brought to the game and the team in Montreal and then management turns around and trades him, one for one for a player about to start planning his retirement makes no sense!
I like Shea but he is not NOT! Subban. a player who can change a game with one rush, one shot and one hit.
History will judge MB and I wish him the best of luck with that ....
today I agree with the veteran voices on this forum, TAR HIM FEATHER HIM put a MATCH to it. MB, Molson, Therien. and any others who felt this trade was fair gets the same treatment!
NO GM in their right mind can and will be able to sleep at night with a trade of this magnitude which is clearly against Les Canadiens.
Short of winning the CUP next season. MB will not survive this decision.
too bad so sad; I was an MB fan.
Quality post.

10 Years!!! FUUU.......

Thats what im hering too!
-
Subban for Weber?
WTF?
-
Make me think they are likely to sign Lucic now too.
-
I know larsson was highly touted but from what ive herad he looks more like a 3 or 4 at this point. If I was an Oilers fan I would be not be a happy camper. Makes we wonder is Habs couldn't have put together. Emelin, Beaulieu and next years 1st?
-
If the AAV was 3.6 everyone would be really happy with the deal so i don't think that 300K takes it from good to terrible. He is better than Prust and Prust got 2.5 four years ago. Age 24-30 should be some of the best of his career.
-
I would have preferred Jost, I have not hear a single bad thing about him.
-
This is really just a feeling on my part but I feel that it is easier to get good D men in the later picks then it is to get good forwards. I would have preferred to see a forward picked. Should the russian factor be a concern?
-
According to TSN 1040 radio here in Van, Monster Macguire is peddling the idea that the Canuckleheads can trade washed-up broken-down Alex Burrows and his $4.5 million contract to the Habs. Wow, he clearly thinks Bergevin is an imbecile.
I hope he gets asked about this when he is on TSN 690 later.
-
So what do you guys think, would it be worth it / possible to trade Juulsen and the 9th pick for the 4th pick? or are we just as well of keeping Juulsen and the 9th pick?
-
Assuming we don't trade up and the predicted forwards go in the top six, I'm thinking Jost is our best bet? I haven't heard anything bad about him so far, he would be my choice.
-
If Bleackley goes unsigned, does he re-enter the draft or become UFA? If he re-enters the draft where would he likely be picked? Any particular reason he has not signed yet?
-
As for yesterday's trade, I'm not sure what Vancouver was thinking there. They must be pushing to win now before the Sedins retire; I can't really think of much justification otherwise.
I think they were happy to let Mccann go because they know they can draft a better forward in a few weeks. Also the fan base in Vancouver is very fickle so they get a d-man that can play now instead of waiting for a prospect to develop and the team should stay a bit more competitive.
-
Is it true Max stayed on for three minutes at the end trying to get an ENG? My father was texting me about it.
No. It was a longer than normal shift though, maybe 1:15, but if anything they were out there to get an empty netter for Chuck.
-
Admittedly I have never seen Danault play and I know basically nothing about him but based on looking at his numbers and TSN bio I am disappointed. Weiss would have been an ideal player to fill a spot on the third line. Maybe after a brief chat they figured it was going to cost way to much.
If he wasn't injured, Mtl should have thrown in the third member of that line as well, since they started the season so strong together.

I think the Habs are finding their Grove under Julien and are going to get the win tonight!
