Any chance the Lightning are planning a sign and trade with Detroit? I'm desperate here.

 

[Parch]

I read that Chiarelli offered Hall for Subban, and Bergevin said no. Not sure if this actually happened.

BOTH Montreal and Edmonton would have come out ahead of where they ended up if this deal went through.

That just creates a big hole on defense for Montreal. I can understand why they didn't want to do that.

So is #PKexit lol

Wow, (prefix) exit is the new (prefix) gate now.

I'm not watching hockey this year. Guess I can save money not buying Gamecenter

Still can't believe it!

I really should be in here more. I sometimes don't post but read this thread daily. The one day I'm out for most of it, all this goes down. Just wow.

I hope not

 

[lamaroo]

Galchenyuk is next, not enough grit in his game for this management. Patches doesn't have any either, but he's Bergevin's yes man, so he's safe.

 

[KernelPanic]

Befgevin just matched ex Habs GMs Rejean Houle and Pierre Gauthier in the bad trades department.

 

[DopeyFish]

I hope not

soooooo

how do you guys plan to sign kucherov and namestnikov this year...

and then drouin, johnson, palat and hedman next year?

Pacioretty is Therrien's Bitch. You fucking knew he had something to do with this.

I hate my Captain.

Not unless Detroit is willing to give up like 3-4 players for him. Stamkos is staying in Tampa. Detroit will need to look at getting Lucic, Okposo, or Eriksson now.

I'm willing to give Tatar and Gus

Namestnikov won't be very expensive. One of Johnson, Palat, or Kucherov is almost certainly going to be traded though.

This thread would be a lot better if more than half the posts actually had something to do with hockey.

 

[zroid]

I agree but they have trouble scoring so Hall would have still been great for them. Weber just makes them flat out worse. Trading one of the best D in the world in his prime for a guy who's been declining for years. Woof.

maybe stamkos/tampa/toronto is in agreement for next year

sign and trade....later lol

Two of the worst trades in recent memory back to back. What is going on?

Really impressed with Steven Stamkos. Could have chased way more money. Stayed where he's happy and where he has best chance to win.

 

[MetatronM]

A reminder that Shea Weber's contract runs through 2026. That's TWENTY TWENTY-SIX. That's another 10 years from today.

How long is 10 years? 10 years ago the Edmonton Oilers were in the Stanley Cup Final.

I haven't seen all the comments yet, but the Habs "fans" at work seem oblivious or say Shea Weber is a good trade. Does anyone at Habs age think this is actually good?

I've heard "Weber is the best D man in the league" so far as an answer.
(FYI - Cakey, I told him Karlsson was the best)

I'm still shocked that this happened. Hall for PK would leave a hole on mtl's backend but they have Price back there and Hall upfront (with no crazy contract) to provide the offense they needed.

 

[Simon Belmont]

No joke. That's an amazing contract.

 

[zroid]

Anyone heard from Red?

poor guy... God damn

I've been laughing for the last hour but now I'm starting to feel bad for Habs Age

 

[JABEE]

I hate to say I told you so in this case, but I told you so, Red: everyone in the Montreal franchise hated Subban for some reason and today proves it

He didn't play the game the "right" way. Ugh.

Montreal is absolutely stupid

I can't imagine anyone not in a state of shock thinking that the Habs got a decent deal on that trade. It isn't even close.

[yyzjohn]

I got in the car all ready to laugh with Overdrive about the Hall deal, then they tell me Stamkos is staying in TB and I'm a bit shocked he didn't move so close to July 1 and then they drop the PK bomb and I almost fucking swerved off the road.

HOLY FUCK!

The Montreal Canadiens are a Racist Organization. Someone Finally had to say it.

 

[Foggy]

Creeper, Red, Lam, Solo, Schu, Imbask...you got done dirty. It ain't right. This is legit horrifying. What in the holy fuck did PK do to turn EVERYONE in that organization against him?

[Fei]

I expected Stamkos to end up in Toronto, so between that and the PK debacle, good day for Sabres-GAF. And I'm pretty sure Yzerman saved Buffalo from themselves by offering $12M+ to Stamkos.

The good news, Montreal fans, is Shea Weber comes with some cap recapture penalties when he retires.

Also gotta love some of the hot takes I've heard so far talks about how "polarizing" PK was or how management didn't like his style...what?
