[lamaroo]

They are Melnyking him, why?

Fucking Therrien.

My only guess is that Bergevin is trying to build up a reputation as a tough negotiator, but Eller ended up getting what he wanted, and his other contract negotiations haven't been tough.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Come on Holland, grow a pair and get Subban when this all falls through. I heard he always wanted to come to Detroit!

 

[Socreges]

That's not the point as Solo pointed out they kept Subban in check 2 years ago and he proved he's worth the big cash by winning the Norris and being their top guy. If they offered him anything less than $8M it's a slap in the face. I'm sure they could have gotten a long term deal done in the $8.5 range, not like they have cap issues to hold them back.

But that IS the point. You feel like he's worth $8.5m, sure, but evidently they don't and there's no objective truth to compare against unfortunately.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Come on home, Subban. Roy was first, you are second.

 

[Razorskin]

Come on home, Subban. Roy was first, you are second.

Actually Theodore was second.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Actually Theodore was second.

The court does not recognize this "Theodore".

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Roy leaving tested my loyalty to the Habs, now its happening again with PK. Unreal....

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

The spiritual homeland calls you Subban. Ackee trees and saltfish is thundering in your mind. The rhythm of steel drums coursing through your veins. Subban can't deny the calling of the Jamaican continuum. Come south Subban, your people call you.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Subban will look good in blue and white.

 

[Var]

Subban will look good in blue and white.

He would look better in orange and black.

 

[Red_Man]

None of you vultures have pieces for a trade anyways, off with you!

 

[KingHenrik30]

No Subban for the Rangers please. Guy drank from the cup before winning. #taint(ed)

 

[Razorskin]

Subban will look good in blue and white.

The return of centennial jerseys!

 

[lamaroo]

Get your hands off my Subban you creeps!

 

[Marvie_3]

Roy leaving tested my loyalty to the Habs, now its happening again with PK. Unreal....

Youre old enough for the Wings bandwagon now. Have fun!

 

[Red_Man]

I know you're joking, but some people were legitimately angry about this, and he said on the radio it was a fake cup and he didn't actually drink from it.

The return of centennial jerseys!

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Get your hands off my Subban you creeps!

Subban already told Fallon his plans, it's time to accept it.

 

[DopeyFish]

That doesn't make any sense, they have the cap this year, and they don't have any other big names / holes to fill, and like Lamaroo said, he'll just cost more. The only reason I can see Bergevin playing such hard ball is because A.Gally, B. Gally, Bournival, Beaulieu, and Tinordi are all RFA's next season, and he wants as much wiggle room for them as possible.

Deadline cap is a very valuable commodity

 

[SuperSonic1305]

None of you vultures have pieces for a trade anyways, off with you!

You will take Phaneuf and Clarkson and like it.

 

[Var]

None of you vultures have pieces for a trade anyways, off with you!

:-(

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Did they complain he didn't play the white wayt?

 

[Red_Man]

Hearing is over, let the meltdowns begin.

Deadline cap is a very valuable commodity

We don't need it right now, we're not a contender yet, Subban is more important then getting another Vanek at the next deadline.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Smiley, native chicks are good marriage material. They get so many benefits from the government.

 

[Razorskin]

I know you're joking, but some people were legitimately angry about this, and he said on the radio it was a fake cup and he didn't actually drink from it.

They need to make a comeback

 

[TrueGrime]

Those are some fugly jerseys.

 

[Red_Man]

I still have nightmares of that barber pole one, what an atrocity.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

None of you vultures have pieces for a trade anyways, off with you!

Ohh, helllooooooooooooooo.

 

[Stasis]

I still have nightmares of that barber pole one, what an atrocity.

A lot of people here, including friends of mine, bought it because of that.

You see it all the time when you go out for game nights. It's a common sight =(

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

@gregbeacham: The Anaheim Ducks will raise Teemu Selanne's No. 8 jersey to the rafters Jan. 11 when they host Winnipeg.

Praise be to Teemu!

 

[KingHenrik30]

Praise be to Teemu!

Very apropos of the ducks. Teemu save us.

 

[Merguson]

You guys can argue all you want about Subban's future, but the matter of fact is that Leiweke is already giving instructions to Subban on how to proceed to become a Leaf in 2016.

 

[lamaroo]

That striped jersey is cursed, may it never appear again.

 

[Solo]

Ohh, helllooooooooooooooo.

Tavares + 1st + ghost of Pat Lafontaine

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

@FriedgeHNIC: Subban: there was a hearing...in the arbitrator

I think Subban went to the wrong meeting...

 

[Red_Man]

P.K. Subban says no deal was reached today. Arbitrator will decide his contract for next season. "We have to live with those decisions."

Ladies and gentleman, start a queue to the left with your offers.

 

[Cake Boss]

Cowen plus Greening plus 2nd rounder.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Kopecky and Flash for Subban!

 

[BigJonsson]

Can teams still offer sheet him?

 

[KernelPanic]

I'm genuinely shocked that cheapass Ottawa can sign Karlsson in 5 minutes and Subban drags on into arbitration.

 

[lamaroo]

So what's twitter look like right now?

How long until #FireBergevin starts trending?

 

[Stasis]

During the playoffs when my buddies came over they'd hang it up behind the TV...

I had a NYR jersey mounted over an NYC skyline triptych behind the couch, no worries!

 

[Solo]

I feel like he'll be gone in 2016 now.

 

[Red_Man]

I'm genuinely shocked that cheapass Ottawa can sign Karlsson in 5 minutes and Subban drags on into arbitration.

I'm at a loss for words. If the arbitrator really is the one to decide this, then all the good will Bergevin has built up is lost. What a complete fuck up if this happens. He'll have to be traded, I don't see them coming back from this if it goes for another year. I'm going to go burn something down.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Who has the cap space and draft picks to get him????

 

[TrueGrime]

Already has, LoL.

 

[BigJonsson]

Subban will be so pissed he'll come to Toronto and light up the Habs for 8 seasons!

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Youre old enough for the Wings bandwagon now. Have fun!

Noooooooo


Also #FireBergevin

If you are taking orders then I have to suggest Philoops crappy restaurent.

 

[Solo]

I, for one, welcome our 2016 future with 72 year old Markov at 1D.

 

[TrueGrime]

I never thought a situation between the Habs and Subban would come to this. Not in a million years.
