Bourque is out indefinitely with a concussion...that sucks.

Karma.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Cole to Dallas according to Bob. For Ryder.

Should make a lot of HabsGAF happy I'm gathering.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Erik Cole traded for Ryder!!

edit: beaten

 

[MetatronM]

Nash, Asham, McDonagh, and MDZ are all out tonight.

 

[CCF23]

That's a good trade for the Habs. Both have similar upsides, but Cole has been fucking brutal this year and Ryder has been decent.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

At least the Detroit we'll get in the East will be the declining Wings and not the perennial playoff team that they have been.

Nope, you'll get the young full of high quality rookie Detroit team once all of our older players go extinct.

 

[cube444]

That's a good trade for the Habs. Both have similar upsides, but Cole has been fucking brutal this year and Ryder has been decent.

I agree.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

That trade seems like a major fleecing. Ryder is younger and has more points than Cole. Wonder if there are some picks involved or something.

 

[lamaroo]

Oh shit. How good has Ryder been this season?

Looks like a win for the Habs. Cole has been completed shit this season, lower cap hit plus UFA, but he'll never be the physical force Cole could be at his best.

 

[CCF23]

Oh shit. How good has Ryder been this season?

14 points in 19 games. Producing pretty well.

 

[cube444]

Where is the fleeced.jpg?

 

[SCHUEY F1]

If it is just Cole, Bergevin is amazing.

 

[cube444]

People saying Cole wanted out for family reasons?

 

[Cake Boss]

Newendyk needs to be fired for that fleece job.

 

[lamaroo]

People saying Cole wanted out for family reasons?

Wants his kids getting that heralded American education.

 

[TemplaerDude]

You can almost smell a sheep while reading this page, my god.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

He was such a douche in the lockout and coupling that with his shitty play to start the season I'm glad he is gone.

[Kuro Madoushi]

Weren't you habs fans and solo in particular mcguiring this guy up last year? Now suddenly he sucks?

 

[cube444]

Weren't you habs fans and solo in particular mcguiring this guy up last year? Now suddenly he sucks?

He was solid last season. Sucked this season.

35 goals in 82 games
3 goals in 19 games

 

[SCHUEY F1]

edit: Loved Cole last season, but this now and he has been pretty bad.

 

[Red_Man]

WHAT COLES GONE? For a guy who's contract is almost done?

Bergevin is a god damn genius, holy christ. So happy, enjoy his lazy ass waiting for retirement for another 2 years Dallas.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

HAHAHAHA..... Oh injuries, this will leave us with 1 top line of forwards and 3 bottom 6 lines:

Flip Questionable for Wednesday with undisclosed injury

Edit: Though Franzen may be back but still, stupid crazy on the injury side for us.

 

[Red_Man]

So this is how it feels to fleece another team.........feels damn good.

 

[lamaroo]

Weren't you habs fans and solo in particular mcguiring this guy up last year? Now suddenly he sucks?

Cole was awesome last season. He's been shit this year, not just statistically, but he plays like Kovalev without the flashes of brilliance, not to mention his antics during the lockout. I will miss 2011-2012 Cole, have since the start of the season.

 

[Pochacco]

Fuck Erik Cole.
Dallas Stars' IQ level just dropped a few points.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Habs getting a pick as well in the trade?

+ Cole is only getting older and worst, and we need the cap space.

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Worst
Fucking
Trade
Ever

GM Joe needs to be fucking fired for so much shit lately. What the fuck?

 

[Red_Man]

Habs get a draft pick too?


Hahahahahahahahahaha holy shit.

 

[bardia]

Wow, talk about getting FLEECED.

 

[cube444]

Habs get a draft pick too?


Hahahahahahahahahaha holy shit.

Somebody needs to photoshop Bergevin's troll face from above on this pic:

 

[Merguson]

Michel Therrien, Francois Boullion and Michel Ryder

Who's the next former hab to return?

 

[Red_Man]

Who's the next former hab to return?

Koivu?

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Well Ryder goes UFA this year. Sounds like we probably weren't going to resign him at a fair price.

So we bailed and got Erik Cole who still has 2 more years at $4 million.


Kinda making sense now but still... :\

 

[Merguson]

So I'm guessing either Tomas Kaberle or Brian Gionta gets bought out with the remaining compliance buyout?

Probably Kaberle.

 

[Red_Man]

Kaberle for sure, although if he can dump Gionta too that would be A-OK.

 

[vatstep]

DAMN IT RYDER HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME

Habs are gonna win the Cup

 

[theosi]

Good thing I kept my Ryder tshirt.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Habs' pick is a third rounder. Christ.

 

[Red_Man]

Ryder still has a lot to make up for this bullshit he did to us

 

[lamaroo]

Good thing I kept my Ryder tshirt.

Gallagher has his old number though.

Habs' pick is a third rounder. Christ.

Fleeced!

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Habs get a draft pick too?


Hahahahahahahahahaha holy shit.

woooooooooo, lol

 

[Cold-Steel]

Michel Therrien, Francois Boullion and Michel Ryder

Who's the next former hab to return?

Believe.

 

[Red_Man]

Wish I still had my Bergevin smug face avatar

 

[Rand0m TAG]

Believe.

you mean

he'll be good for the dressing room

 

[Cold-Steel]

you mean

he'll be good for the dressing room

Ha. In all seriousness though, Cammy does make a lot of sense considering how far Calgary has fallen.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Some of the Stars' recent trades:

2011: Neal and Niskanen for Goligoski
2012: Grossman for a 2nd and 3rd rounder
2012: Ribeiro for Eakin and a 2nd rounder
2012: Ott and Pardy for Roy

And now Ryder and a pick for Cole.

 

[calder]

The goalie stats TSN showed before puck drop have me really excited about the game. Pavs and Lundquist could be twins!

 

[Slurmer]

Gagne brings that cup-winning pedigree that Philly needs...sigh

McGinn is out a few weeks with a broken orbital bone. Maybe he should give the fighting a rest when he comes back.

Yeah he got fucking hammered. Maybe just don't pick fights with ambidextrous dudes.
