Exactly. He assists with the sticks and there's no shooting or scoring with them allowed.
Now that makes sense. Perfectly qualified.

Former Montreal assistant coach Clement Jodoin signed a one year deal to be an assistant with Eisbaren Berlin of the DEL. (It was reported earlier that it's not expected that the Habs will replace him.)
thank god we didn't fire him, being so valuable and all. Could we maybe encourage some of the other jerks to hit the road? We won't need to replace their useless asses either.

Couple of ppl thought Ott shouldn't have a thread... Sorry I guess for starting it but I thought it was a worth a mention, I liked him as a Hab. I thought he would be great in development coach role for the centers on this team and the farm but maybe not a full time asst. coach on the Habs.
That said Big Bird on the Habs in ANY role should be a priority on the same level as getting #1 center, extension to CP31, Radu, top 4 D ....

I agree it is just a thread, the world won't end. So we discuss Ott for a while, what the hell is wrong with that. I liked Ott and hoped he would be back but he wants to be a coach and the Blues are giving him an opportunity. Good for him.

I simply don't get how trading the best offensive players on the team for offense makes any sense. We need to add offence not make a lateral trade that gains us (maybe) an extra goal or 2. Although Mark down Mark seems good at lateral trades that accomplish shite.

45 points in 65 games.
And even if it was 45 points in 82 games, that's pretty comparable to other 4.5 million dollar players in the league.
There is no way I give up Lehkonen for him.

You simply should not expect your goalie to win the game every night. He should keep you in the game and give you a chance to get some goals. Carey does that in spades. Can we afford him? We will have to wait and see. I hope so but I am afraid that we can't at 10 mill/yr. 7.5 or 8 Yup

Injury prone and an NMC.

4 million salary 45 points per year. he better be cheap.

I almost need a Nashville/Ottawa SC final just for the possibility of seeing this again, but in a playoff game:
Laviolette v Boucher, round 2, FIGHT!
I had forgotten just how frigging goofy that was.

Jim Nill is willing to move the #3 pick Cause he has 2 1st's. I would think we should take a shot at that.

I don't think poor Mikey is in need of cash at the moment, but was rumour he is in running for some NHL coaching position already.
Ya Le Genius still has lots of Molson bucks to throw around. I should be so lucky.

It was reported a couple of weeks ago that no changes are being made to the assistants other than Jodoin resigning (and he's not likely to be replaced).
Jodoin is waiting for Le Genius to get a new job.

Dallas trades the Habs 2017 4th round pick for the negotiating rights to Ben Bishop.
Solid move, and quite a game changer for Dallas if he signs.
The Kings did not do so good in getting Bishop. They gave up Budaj (who played well for them) a young defence prospect (who looks good) and a couple of picks (no real loss) for what is now a 4th 5th and I think a conditional pick in 2017. I think they should have stuck with Budaj.

There is scoring in free agency, but its mainly on the wings.
Some could be a bit of a help, but solving the centre issue has to be the priority.
But but it is too hard, and there are no #1 centers available.

You do make a good point that guys like me, who feel Bergevin has proven unequal to the task, are assuming that Molson would choose a quality replacement. If the choice is Bergevin vs either McGuire or Roy, then that's a Hobson's Choice par excellence. Without claiming detailed expertise on all the possible options, BriseBois would be my pick. Either of those two egomaniacs could turn out to be even worse than Bergevin. (At least Roy has credentials, unlike Mouth McGuire).
Not that any of this matters much, since Molson seems to be standing pat.
I can't recall who the Habs interviewed besides Bergevin on the last go-round. BriseBois was in the mix, wasn't he? Did they interview McGuire?
I do believe they did, and he has been pissed off ever since.

Seriously.
2 years, 9 million.
We couldn't do better than that.
Really Bergevin? Really?
FOR #### SAKES.well we don't know how negotiations went. we heard earlier he did not want to come to the habs, so who knows.

For argument sake, let's say MB and Price's agent sit down and after talking it was agreed by both sides that the best option would be for us to trade him, Price agrees with the move. What do get for him.
With his awards, trophies, past successes and playing on the WJC, Olympics and other world tournaments and considered the best goalie in hockey by many this would be my asking price:
A top line centre.
A second top young asset.
Two first round picks, or a first and a high second.
What do you think?
depends on the team doing the giving, and what the assets are. But that trade won't ever happen, the difference between the top 10 goalies in the league is not enough to warrant that kind of return imho.

What is the point of trading Patches? He is a solid 30- 40 goal scorer. You gonna get a what? a 41 goal scorer? Come on guys you don't trade offence when you are goal starved. Trade prospects defence but whatever we need more goals. Trading Patches does not make that happen. we need goals wherever they come from, as long as we are not replacing patches goals for some other guys goals.

Don't blow up the core. Fire the GM and replace him with one who understands how to draft and develop talent, and one who is actually competent to identify and address real problems (scoring) rather than make-believe ones ('leadership').
YO!

I agree.
I don't give a damn about the captaincy.
The son of Mark Messier and Joan of Arc wouldn't have taken them any further without any scoring.I heard Joan was a hell of a scorer, and was hotter than all get out.
Is it time for NHL to make changes to the draft??

well you got to admit they followed their plan. Just didn't get the result they wanted.
