  1. Yes its unlikely that a top C goes to another team ... but unless the price is right. Then what what would be a price no team dealing a #2 would say no to? a) assuming they dont need to shed salary? = Pick + roster + prospect? b) assuming the do need to shed salary? = Roster + Prospect or pick + take salary?
  2. And in my incredulous belief of Marc not being able to land a centre by deadline ... raises my hopes that he somehow believes he has a shot at Tavares... But I really dont see that happening ... WHy would a Free agent of the level of Tavares wanna play for a team in reconstruction. Unless .... Marc si expecting to have a complete team ready for a Tavares come July first.... but that should have been the case by October 2017 not still up in the air at this juncture... gosh this is frustrating
  3. Doesnt matter if Bergevin is fired or not what matters is that the season 2018-19 starts with the Habs having a REAL number one centre and a partner for Weber OR a another pair of top 2 dmen. ALL of Molson's advisors are telling him his team needs this fixed. ASAP AND before the next season starts. I don't think another GM guarantees this. Granted if this isnt fixed by the time of the draft/ July first... then yes Bergevin is gone. But I just cant believe this problem isnt fixed .. with how the Habs are right now. It would be at least Bergevin's legacy as he is thanked and kicked to the curve. Marc got the Habs a bonified number one Centreman. I can't see this not happening... its really not possible. THE QUESTION IS WHAT IS the price! The price Marc pays for the fixup is what determines if he has a chance at saving his job. If An O'Reilly like Centre costs us Pacioretty plus a number one pick AND prospect Like say Mete ? then he's lost his Job. Because tell me how not getting a centreman not (at least in appearance) seem to resolve everything, Please tell me if im wrong .... and i mean it as i want to learn more about what value the players have.... These are what to me are examples of over paying- and at the same time how could this not get us almost any player Pacioretty + 1or more roster player (Galliger or SHaw or Galchy) + Prospect (e.g. Mete) + Second or First round Pick ....AND retaining Salary Would not get us A GUARANTEED No 1 centreman? so my question what would be a more realistic trade for a guaranteed no 1?
  4. with regards to getting a Numero Uno centre ....what scenario(s) are still reasonably possible without trading Pacioretty? Likely......at least one ( first round pick) or two (second round picks) will acquitred come deadline via our UFAs or players such as Gally or Shaw ... So my question is: would picks and the Habs' 9 million surplus allow them to get a number one centreman? i.e. picks/prospect plus $$$ to take a burden/deadweight = one top centreman like O'Reilly for example?
  5. Hi fellas long time no... well nothing I'm willing to accept Bergevin ####ed up with Markov And that boat has sailed.... Unless talks during summer with the KHL team. But thats another story. Secondly I'm "kind of" ok that Bergevin lost Radulov.... But what Im not ok with is that this season ends and we don't at least finish with that number one centre. When the Habs officially are out of the playoffs AND if Bergevin wants to save his arse - he has to either finish the season with a bonified number one centre via trade. OR damn well convince Molson that in the offseason Tavares is coming to Mtl. If Marc isnt sure he will get that Centreman in the off season.... then he will have to get him before the deadline. Which I believe will be via that 9 million surplus. in the form of absorbing one or more sub par players' contracts - possibly via a three way trade. Question is will he do it regardless if what he gets in return is a future Gomez or a Radek Bonk... What scenarios come to mind to you guys? just an example of what im saying-- not that its possible- would say the senators or another team accept Pax for an underachieving top centre like Duchene and a deadwight contract say Phaneuf? And would US (you) be ok with that?
  6. Let me tell you why its not... Carey Price was this close to getting injured on game one... PK is our current number one D (in any other top tier team he'd be third best D). There isnt a number 2 nor a number 3 D in our team. Gorges, Spacek Gill are top 6 (between 4 and 6) Just like last year, I say dress 7 D and play them until they drop (constantly) no more experiments Martin keep them playing until they play to their potential whatever that is. But No...now we're going to make PK play over 25 min. In turn make him believe he is the one thing keeping this team together (NOT GOOD) Price, if he gets injured ....then bye bye season. Call in a Alex Henry who wont let anyone touch our goalie. Put Cole on the PP Pierre is tied up 49 signings and thats it. so screw hamilton get the best D's out of there Other than that Im Optimisitc!
  7. well thats the problem... Many are arguing against Diaz and Yemelin and even Weber for that matter (they are not ready)
  8. RDS says couple of months means we need to either resign Mara... or call up Alex Henry
  9. Where is the thread....Habs have the worst active D in the league!!!| And then I can cut and paste ALL the stuff I wrote last season!
  10. if Chris Drury cant be traded and has to be bought out... that means nobody wants Gomez... Drury has one year left at 7-ish million cap hit but costing 5 mil.
  11. DOMINATION!!! lol I gotta admit I wanted this to HAPPEN! French media totally on Gomez's butt! lol I don't know who else was better than Gomer honestly this was a lose lose situation. We had to play with half the team injured. Had JM not decided to leave Picard and Dawes and Weber and who else was able to play UN-injured, we would of grilled JM for not playing Plek and Sopel etc. These guys could not aggress! Sopel couldnt Gill couldnt.... Nor could Wiz nor Halpern and add 10 more players like this! LOL Nobody could even finish their checks!!! I am fine with this result. Habs and JM and PG better learn from this!! YEAH!!!! Guys this is good news for our Future!!! I was hoping for this to HAPPEN! Hell Im not gonna wish for this to happen in the Playoffs (which would still be good for us in the long run) Better Now then later!!! YESSS!!!!!!! Go Habs GO!!!
  12. HA! lol love how you guys react! We're not gonna miss the playoffs with this Its just a reflection how teams when playing hard ass physical and early on will dominate us. Period Its not because we have gutless players its because were physically disadvantaged! When we don't get the last change and there is too much stoppage were not gonna win it... Look at that short handed goal... physically dominated by three guys lol Playoffs will be short... so start preparing fellas dont lose too much sleep over this!
  13. Ken Dryden's article http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/ken-dryden-on-hockey-violence-how-could-we-be-so-stupid/article1939428/
  14. In danslescoulisses.com they mentioned that Gomer was offered to all 29 teams up to the deadline, Gomer knew it and his agent knew it. Gomer didnt want out of Habs, now that he has several good friends in the team, as well as he knows he will be in the same boat regardless where he goes. and the sources says he will be likely dealt next season when his price-tag goes down. The Habs had asked the reporters to not say anything about this and they complied.
  15. Ditto... Sedin's point is exactly why the NHL screwed this up... Had the NHL severed with a two or even ONE game suspension.. perhaps we wouldnt be talking about this
  16. Now a point on these "stanchion holding the glass " between the benches... in total there are 4 of these... two per bench! my question is why do we need to seperate the two benches?!?! I understand they need to seperate the teams so they dont go at eachother... but do u need to make them hard? why not seperate them with some flexible poly-whatever. like a big see through curtain... Its not like teams use that part of the ice to bounce a puck off of the glass... You reduce the chances right away (by half) of an accident like this from re-occurring Im not going to stop exclaiming this but This game NEEDS to Evolve!!! it doesnt take a high-school degree to see this
  17. Good to hear the police got involved!
  18. It doesnt take a Habs fan to realize that this is 1000 times wrong... Not even a one game suspension?!?!? Had Pacioretty lied dead on the ice... then would he get one?!?! What if later Pax is unable to walk properly let alone skate, then will he get one? And what if Pax suffers from chronic migraines for the rest of his life... then will he get one? The league has a re-active policy, worthy of the 19th century, much like when the game first started! Isn't there a grain of logic in the NHL? And like Danslescoulisses stated in his webpage....if Chara is not at fault then is it Max Pac's fault? or better its the padding's fault.. But at least the NHL should man up and say if its the rink designs at fault.... then IT IS the NHL's fault. and they should do something about it! A team has lost a promising top 6 player for the rest of the season (if were lucky) and the NHL deems that Chara's remorse will prevent this from happening again? What is the point of these sanctions, suspensions etc. for, if not with the aim of preventing future events like these and others from happening... the precedence will now be that if you shove a player and break his neck, you will be ejected from the game, thats it! Play on! to me the fact that Chara didnt even turn around until the whistle was blown, shows me Chara knew what he was doing...or what he had done! And proves the team mentality was to get the Habs at any cost! Gomez and Gionta still can hear that loud bang... So Chara couldnt of missed that! I invite the Habs to move their weight around and call for criminal investigation on CHara and the League! The game needs to evolve *$%!@!! for the love of the game and for the sake of the player's lives
  19. And Again my rant! CHANGE THE FN Physics of the RINK! put padding, make the boards, glass, posts everything with some form of collapsing component! AND PLEASE MAKE THE RINK BIGGER you Fn greedy Capitalist Pigs... Will we have to wait for a dead player on the ice for that to happen??!?
  20. From a TV viewer's perspective, the hit thundering noise echoed in my house... Don't know if its because there are microphones there or what.. But If that sound was half of what it was.. Wouldn't Saint Chara have stopped and at least looked to see how Pacioretty was?!?!?! I Really dont think Chara is that kind of player... But in that particular instance and for fraction of a second Chara New what result he was going to get when he rammed Pax on that post. For a brief moment Chara acted with a mean bone and resentment... That to me was clear, due to his follow through. 5 games min
  21. I expect the Habs to add Hank for the playoffs, tonight's game will be PG's indicator if the team needs more toughness in case, here is another plain fn reason why he should be added come early spring! http://www.cbc.ca/video/#/Sports/Hockey/1249236098/ID=1831372329
  22. Hey in case it hasn't been posted yet... the link to see "Nos Canadiens" watched tomaschhh Plekanetttsss and now watching Marky very kool http://vtele.ca/videos/recherche.php?q=canadiens
  23. I think were getting JP Dumont... problem is had he not a NMC he would of been waivered some time ago.. I just hope we didnt pay too much for him
  24. LOL What I do respect from Bergy is is hatred for Scott Stevens... I did miss a good part of S.S. stint in the 90's but even I consider his actions borderline criminal
