The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 On a team stacked with young talent and up-and-coming forwards in the system, Gainey would have been a complete idiot to sign Arnott to a contract that makes him effectively untradeable for five years. Elias would have been another matter, but nothing Bob could have done there. Defensive help would have been nice but is not essential, as our D is already as good as Carolina's. So, the best signing would be a short-term contract to a guy like Shanahan who could shore up an immediate need while bringing tons of leadership and Cup experience to help along our young guys. Go get him, Bob - but not for more than two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smon Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I wager that due to rumours continuing to surface that Bo is still trying to attain SOMETHING Or maybe is it that some Habs fans are getting Leafs fan syndrome. They went into the offseason thinking that every decent player on the market was going to be signed by Gainey, and are resorting to making things up becuase he hasn't signed anyone. Look at the fake Poti rumour for an example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 The guy who invented the Tom Poti rumour should be submitted to a Sheldon Souray or Alex Kovalev slap shot IN THE FACE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
