Lose Price, Add Alzner. Promising
Gally (flu-like symptons) and Shaw (personal reasons) are day-to-day as well.

$5.5M cap hit, $4M salary (not including his $1M signing bonus) this season.
Ok thanks. I wondered if that was what he meant, but then saw that Petry's salary goes down another $1M for the final 2 years of his contract, and... well it doesn't take much to confuse me.

If Petry goes, it will be to a contending team willing to sacrifice picks, prospects, or young assets in order to significantly bolster their blueline for a deep Cup run. No other category of team will want him.
Petry has really impressed me. What with last year and this year, he has found a way to raise his game to a high level with consistency. Earlier in his career he'd have a great three months and then regress. It's fairly rare that a guy 'hits another level' at age 29-30, but he seems to have done it. He is now one of the most under-rated d-men in the league and would be an extremely valuable pickup for a contender needing a legit #2 d-man. At $4 mil he is excellent value as well.
Petry is making $5.5M, no?

I never liked Carcillo as a player, but for him to be so open and honest has really changed my opinion of him. Mad respect for showing how awful hockey cultures can be.

Ok, so Patrik Laine actually singlehandedly outscored the entire Canadiens team with 11 goals last week. What a beast.

How many of those were actual hits though? 3? We all know how unreliable that stat is when it comes to games played in Montreal.
Oh absolutely, but I caught at least 3 really well timed and effective hits in the 3rd alone.
But this is something I've seen time often this year. Hudon gets back into the line-up and has a positive effect on the team. I then wonder how it was possible that he was a healthy scratch for about 3 or 4 games....and then I resume cringeing at his defensive blunders until he's a scratch again. Rinse and repeat.

Les 13 mises en échec distribuées par Charles Hudon sont un sommet personnel pour le jeune attaquant.

Charles Hudon's 13 hits were a career high.#GoHabsGo13 hits? Probably a good way to stay in the line-up!

Seems unfair that Boston's first line gets to have 4 skaters.
Hoping to sit Reilly draw back in and Schlemko sit. It'd be nice to see Kulak have another decent game.

Serron Noel, 6-foot-5, 215 pounder, has Habs prospect Alex Romanov in his sights for a hit. Romanov does this to him pic.twitter.com/rcm4xb72UF

Tbh, I hope Patch gets a goal and a good reception; he did so much for this team, and it'd be nice to see some recognition for that.
That being said, I hope it's 6-1 for the good guys.

Well, I'm glad he got to his 1000th game with us, but it's too bad that his NHL career had to end so abruptly. Nevertheless, he'll remain one of my favourite Habs from this era.

I also used Rogers NHL Live last year abd it was great. But I did call Rogers last week for this years season and was told its no longer available this year..
any truth to this?
It's no longer included on phone contracts. I had signed up with Rogers in June specifically for the NHL LIVE package, and after months of getting various answers, the NHL rep said it's no longer included. I argued for literally an hour and a half; in that time they tried to tell me that 1) it was never offered, 2) it was initially offered but since I didn't pay for it, they had no obligation to deliver it, and 3) that I had chosen Spotify over it (nope). Finally, they offered me $20 off... which is actually the early bird pricing. I got a wee bit agitated at that point, as you can imagine, and it finally ended up with them agreeing to credit me the cost of a year's subscription if I signed up right then.
That all being said, I now see that 52/82 Habs games are blacked out in my region. So like BCHabnut said, check that out before subscribing. I think TSN Go carries the bulk of games, so I might try that out. Anyone use that?

I'm trying Rogers NHL Live this year. Last night was the first chance I had to give it a whirl, and it was pretty good. There were a few odd glitches (i.e., didn't work on Chrome, and the XB1 log-in was buggy). 2 games didn't have streams, but I was able to watch all of the other games no problem.

Well, obviously he'd be acquired to play center.

I beg to differ.
Ovechkin - Danault - Kucherov
Benn - Plekanec- Kane
Marchand - De la Rose - Laine
Gaudreau - 58 years old Guy Carbonneau - TarasenkoGotta be pretty awful D and G to fit those forwards under the cap... but would really matter?

I think the only person that might find this exciting is my wife, because she thinks DLR is dreamy.

I had to decide before June 8th if I wanted to renew my season tickets.
If I ever learn that they knew about it before this date and just told us today, I SWEAR that I will somehow damage the Bell Centre for AT LEAST the amount I paid for those tickets. On top of never buying Molson products outside of the Bell Centre ever again.
I hear ya. I'm pretty much decided that I'm not paying for tickets until there's actually NHL caliber hockey being played in Montreal.

Buffalo had to pay the bonus to O'Reilly. That means the asking price went up?. I would stay away from O'Reilly. Wait it out 2 years and have Kotkaniemi and poehling as our top 2 centers.
Buffalo can trade ROR before midnight and get out of paying him the bonus.

It'll be weird seeing Halak in Boston

I don’t get the fascination with pageau. He’s a third liner and an overpaid one at that.
Cuz he plays like the bastard child of Crosby and McDavid whenever he plays the Habs?
The longest 30 minute bus ride I ever had was after the Heritage Classic last year, with half the bus chanting "Pageau" instead of "Ole" non-stop.

When you think about it, the only guy we know who plays videogames on the Habs is Marc Bergevin.
Gotta wonder if he got fired in GM mode...
