  1. Good luck winning the Gagarin cup in the KHL and having a few more Rubles in your pocket Andrei.
  2. So what good does that do when there are no UFA to spend it on? Your defence is arguably worse than it was last year when you lost in the 1st round of the playoffs Your team has two #3 and two #4 centres. And the prospect capital to purchase above required upgrades is zilch!!!
  3. You can take $4M of Plekanec salary and add it to Prices salary increase starting next year.
  4. Has there ever been a true tear down and rebuild? Not in last 30 years anyways. There's no reason to believe it'll happen in the future.
  5. Fact 1. Habs couldn't score against Rangers in 2017 playoffs. 2. Habs struggled to move the puck out of their zone transitioning from dmen to forwards. 3. Habs centre position ranking is bottom 5 in the league? Definitely bottom 10. 4. Habs have not addressed #1. Yes they brought in Drouin, but allowed Radulov to leave. 5. Habs have not addressed #2 and still do not have a reliable puck rushing dman. Which means Julien has to continue with failed theory of having dmen chip puck off boards and hoping forwards can recovery and transition to offence. This flies in the face of letting one of your best possession players walk and your centermen are shit. 6.) Habs still have a good, mostly young forward core; Galchenyuk, Lehkonen, Drouin, Byron, Gallagher, Pacioretty. 7. Goalie is elite
  6. Markov wasn't the same player after his knee surgeries as he was before. Same as Emelin.
  7. Oilers can afford to part with Draisaitl more than the Islanders with Tavares
  8. That's why it says draft pick compensation. Fully realize it could be a 1st. Maybe even a 1st and 2nd. I don't think the oilers would wanna take on even more salary with Gallagher but if they did I'd certainly add him.
  9. Montreal Draisaitl RFA Klefbom $4.2 M Edmonton Weber $8 M Galchenyuk RFA Draft pick compensation for increase salary
  10. The will have a snowballing effect on the entire Canadians roster. Montreal depth at centre will be exposed. It's not unreasonable to expect to see Danault regress now that his wingers won't be Radulov and Pacioretty. Right wing doesn't look as fearsome with Gallagher, Byron/Shaw & Hemsky vs Radulov, Gallagher, Byron/Shaw. They are putting massive amount of pressure on Lehkonen, Gallagher, Byron and Drouin to step up their games since they have to make up 18 goals and 30+ assists.
  11. Nope. That was the tipping point. If fire him for all the other jackass stuff he's done or hasn't done
  12. Ok. I'll jump onboard. Hemsky in, Radulov out? WTF? Fire the asshole
  13. Pretty sure none of them had serious knee problems either
  14. Expect the unexpected.....f##k If rather have Markov at $5 or $5.5M
  15. Sportnet reporting Habs asked if Methot would waive his no trade clause. He said no
  16. "...to be drafted to an organization like Toron.....er Montreal...is just an honor...." Doh
  17. Be interesting to see if Vegas picked Emelin because they already have a deal worked out with another team for him
  18. Biggest need is a #1 Centre. Or even a very good #2. Next biggest need is a solid puck moving LH defenceman to play with Weber. How Bergevin goes about doing this is the real question/concern.
  19. Drafting isn't the problem Player development is
  20. Does anyone have any faith that Bergevin won t #### up the Galchenyuk trade? Someone talk me off the ledge here, I'm gonna jump....
  21. Bergevin must have a deal in place with Vegas for Plekanec or possibly Emelin to clear up cap space. Otherwise one of Galchenyuk or Radulov will not be back. If Galchenyuk is to be traded and Plekanec is gone, Bergy must bring in a centre. There is no guarantee Drouin can fill the centre role. What use would it be to bring in a top dman in trade when you still have glaring holes a centre? If Galchenyuk is traded, it's reasonable to assume Drouin can score ~25 goals but you now lost Galchenyuks ~25 goals. Is it fair to ask Gallagher and Lehkonen to up their goal totals to make the offence that's required? Especially without a legit centre? Clearly the defense needs a puck moving dman. How does that get addressed? So many questions. Should be an exciting next few days.
  22. If Pacioretty and Drouin are top two leftwingera where does Galchenyuk fit in?
