habs rule

platooning will work and will become more common in the new nhl. With a cap teams cannot afford 5-7 million for goalie who may have some off games or go into a slump as we have seen this year. Theo who?

i do believe Jean Beliveau is still with the organisation as is Guy Lafleur

huet is an RFA not a lot of negotiating power on his side he has played very well but he can be signed for a million imo Abs same situation i think he willl be signed for 2 mill maybe 2.2. if I amnot mistaken the club can hang on to their rights by offering 100% of current salary. subject to arbitration which i do not think works in these paticular players favor.

make the numbers smaller and go trip digits I can hear it now and scoring for the montreal canadiens number 444 tom somebody lol

we dont need him to make speeches just stop the puck.

5 million dollar goalies are overpaid and I dont care who it is we can spend 5 million on 2 goalies to get the job done. the prob with 1 guy doing all the work is that like all humans he is going to have good days and bad days. I f you tie yourself to 1 guy @ 5mill then he cannot have any bad days. Theo had bad weeks months and years colorado can have him and his hair tonic THIS IS A GREAT TRADE

great comment and finally some commonn sense. :hlogo:

Lets go get Selanne He would look real good playing with his buddy Saku. Oh Yeah!

BOB has a plan and it will work!

I loved Jose but his time in montreal was over. He was a wunderkind for a short period of time. 1 good year/ big contract/ bad year/ ok year/ good playoffs/big contract/ very bad year traded simply because he was not worth 4.5 million per year with the inconsistency he has shown. Comparing him to Roy is nonsence. Roy had almost single handed carried the habs to the cup twice he was recognised as the elite goalie in the league. As wrong as that mess was I think this one is right. Best of luck to you Jose she's been one bitch of year for you and I hope it turns around.

ribs kovalev zhogs for 2nd line who woulda thunk it. great move seems to be working

holy crap was thaat Ribs that tried to kill gagne? Komisarek must be showing him some tips

the boys are playing well tonite i hope they can get a break those 2 Philly goals were kind of lucky. Don't let it get you down GO HABS GO

so you want to know who won? ah no i don't want to spoil it for you. just kidding :hlogo:

I know it is a long shot but the old saying may still hold true. When you pull on the CH jersey the talent level goes up. He had a ton of talent could Bob and Guy turn him into a real hockey player? I think its worth a try if he doesn't work out send him to the minors where he will play 3 games and quit. He has never shown himself to be a stick to it kind of guy

I agree your posts are great and I look forward to the game thread for all the info we need. Just remember you cannot ever quit because then we would have to HUNT YOU DOWN and make you do it all over again lol

the way Huet is playing he'd be nuts not to. Huet has played like theo did a few years ago.

this could be a good pick up for someone At only 850 grand he still has a lot of potential talent even though he has never lived up to it? Would he fit on les Habs?

et le but!

I once said that I thought Huet was a throw in on the bonk garon trade. Maybe bonk was the throw in. I want to now and forever apologise to Cristowall. He is playing amazing goal.

did you see that save? wow! Jose who?

this freind of yours needs help possibly an intervention. Drugs are bad. And this would be the worst drug deal I have ever seen. I would rather trade Theo to the swiss team for a bunch cute girls.

sorry I was not looking at the avatar yeah that is good. I am just so used to seeing the bobble head that I missed it . Really do we need Danis as a goaltender practiseing with the team now? He is not going to play for 2 or 3 games so he wont play with the dogs and all he will do is sit on the bench. If he should get hurt we will go to the next guy Michaud it would be all we could do. You cannot not play a guy cause he might get injured you would never play anybody. I think the only reason for this move is because they want him to feel like a real part of the team. Not a bad idea but if he does not play will he get stale? just my thoughts

Nice idea but no :hlogo: what pic are you talking about ? and?

geez i happen to think that is a great idea. Old Sammy would be proud. Forward thinking. I believe he is not a UFA untill after next year so you are looking at picking up a small portion of his salary this and paying him 3.6 mill next but the $ against the cap are the average of his contract so even though you would only pay him 3.6 I think he would actually count as approx 5 mill against the cap and he does have a no trade contract so this deal is unlikely to happen but is very interesting for talking purposes.
