I doubt it, but this would be a guy i'd love to see in a habs uniform! :ghg: Even if he was available he would never be traded , Tampa is the hottest team in the NHL right now , they are a definite lock for the playoffs , and could even go up higher in the standings... They took Khabby off the table because they want to contend in the playoffs this year. plus Lecavalier is back in the coaches good books , but they have a rocky relationship ... so it might not last long. Anyways , he wont be traded this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways , he wont be traded this year. Tortorella is good buddies with the owner so he's not going anywhere, and the team won't trade Vinny. So Lecavalier realized that although he doesn't like the guy, he might as well find a way to make it work. Plus the fact that he gets to play with Martin St-Louis these days is enough to make him want to stay. IMO, the only shot we'll have at Lecavalier is the day he becomes a UFA... he turns 24 in April, so in 7 years we can start these rumors up again. Until then, we'll have to look elsewhere for size in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonavistaman11 Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 It's nice to dream though! He'd be a perfect fit, big, strong, and offensive...which is desperately needed in Montreal. It'll be a long time before the habs get a top line center of this size and Calibre. :ghg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
