No, because they'll hire Patrick Roy first.

We all know this is inevitable

So is it finally time for our gutless Captain to get called out for the soft, floating, invisible perimeter player he is?

1 point in 6 games (and none in the last 5) so far while getting top minutes. Funny how no demotions occur when he is involved. Huh.

Meanwhile, his 22 year old linemate, playing centre ice full time for the first time? JOE has 5 points in those same 6 games.

Woah I had no idea Radulmao had scored his first goal last night, it was... an empty netter😂

Maybe he's injured, he has to be

And 0 in the playoffs.

If that's the case he's "injured" 75% of every season lol. Of course he has that other 25% of the time where he streaks and scores a gazillion goals, but I'm frankly tired of his Houdini act.

I think trading him might hurt us because he's still a goalscorer and we don't have anyone to replace him in our prospect pool, but at this point I don't care anymore

IF he's getting traded tho, now's the time. His contract is insane, and it's still good for one more full season after this one. His worth is at it's absolute peak right now

My issue is that we're going to trade him for another one of those instead of picks and prospects, which is what we need realistically

13 goal pace!

Price immediately becomes captain if Patches leaves right? Or Weber?

 

[imBask]

The Canadiens have been dominating play and outshooting their opponents convincingly through six games to start this season

Now I get why Red wanted us to get the Athletic. He's a writer!

Having a goalie as a captain is stupid.

 

[ElephantShell]

Having a goalie as a captain is stupid.

Why? He's a player like any other. If he's the leader in the room I don't see why he shouldn't be captain.

 

[Cat Party]

I just want to thank Montreal for making the Sharks look good last night and I think it would be great if they took their frustrations out on the Kings tonight.

 

[calder]

They are explicitly prevented from being captains (or alternates) because the main on-ice purpose of the captains is to have a designated player to discuss things with the refs so it's not just 20 guys yelling all the time.

Having a goalie wear a C was annoying because it led to too many stoppages if the goalie had to skate down to talk to the refs every time someone wasn't happy with a faceoff or whatever. Also teams used it deliberately to slow the game down to be like a fake timeout.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Not surprised people living in Vancouver don't want to buy Canucks tickets. Gotta save every penny when that city is so stupid expensive.

The arena is actually in a really good spot: downtown and close to transit. It's just that no one wants to spend money to see a losing team.

The Whitecaps (MLS soccer) have cheaper tickets, a more engaged atmosphere, and are at the top of their conference right now. They have no problems selling tickets.

Maybe shots should be convertible to goals. Like 20 shots gets you 1 goal, 50 gets you 3.

hitting a post should give you 2 goals imo

bar down = 3

If the league was so serious about cracking down on slashers they should count every slashing call as a goal against.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Giving so much of a shit about who's captain is stupid

As a Wild fan who constantly hears about how bad a captain Koivu is and how Parise should be the captain, I cannot agree with this any more.

If the guy is a leader and is someone others will listen to and play for, it doesnt matter whether or not they have a C, an A, or nothing at all.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Clearly the captain of every team should be whoever has the biggest contract.

It should be who has the best low net drive. Jason Blake. Ultimate captain.

Anybody picked up or tried on an Adizero jersey yet? Step up from a Reebok premier? Worth it? Been eyeing picking up the new Panthers jersey since last season just to have it, and I can get a premier on clearance for $80. Wondering if it'd be worth the extra $100 for the Adizero.

Probably not worth the extra cash tbh. I'd go for the Reebok Premier jersey for $80 for the same design as the current $200 Adizero jersey.

The cool thing with the Adizero jersey is the fact that it's the authentic jersey vs. the Reebok being a replica.

Premier jersey on the left, Adizero on the right.

Marc Faber, the Swiss investor based in Thailand, provoked a backlash from business television and investment management firms on Tuesday after comments in his latest newsletter suggested the United States had only prospered because it was settled by white people.

“Thank God white people populated America, not the blacks. Otherwise, the US would look like Zimbabwe, which it might look like one day anyway, but at least America enjoyed 200 years in the economic and political sun under a white majority.”

“I am not a racist,” Faber continued, “but the reality - no matter how politically incorrect - needs to be spelled out as well.”

MY PEOPLE NOOOOO

The nice thing about the Adizeros is that everything is stitched and embroidered from the front logo to the shoulder patches. The reebok premiers have heat pressed logos on the front. Both the front crest and shoulder logos are a lot cheaper feeling on the reeboks. Adizeros have slightly higher quality material but they have the stupid looking collars.

Legit talk, would MTL be in a better position with Pierre McGuire or Bargain Bin as their GM?

For one, they would have probably still have Subban and not Weber's 25 year contract.

Faber described monuments commemmorating the U.S. Civil War military leaders of the Confederacy, which were at issue in the protests, as “statues of honorable people whose only crime was to defend what all societies had done for more than 5,000 years: keep a part of the population enslaved.”
