I was eyeing up David Desharnais for that to be honest. 1 million expiring contract Rags can retain 50%. Adds some depth in the 3c/4c area and pushes Reaves even further from the roster. Grabner could work out as well if you shove him onto that 4th line. JT Miller probably costs too much to get and then how do you re-sign him along with some of the other UFA/RFAs coming up? Granted cap is going up, but something worth considering.

Oh ho ho if you think DD has any value for a playoff run

If you played the NHL game where he played with the Sens, that's probably why. He was a monster in those games because his backhand was deadly.

There was a dude who played for San Jose named Rob Gaudreau who those games decided was a Neely level sniper, some weird poo poo. I guess they figured fans of the team had to depend on SOMEBODY for goals.

Mike Strahan once used his awful rating on his first Madden appearance (39) to motivate himself to get better. Had a pretty drat good career.

To be fair Gaudreau did score at a .75ppg his rookie year


Chambers had a rating of 1

So how many times have the Habs been totally shut out this season? I feel like it has to be at least 10 times. This teams just never going to be able to score, it's so loving pathetic for an NHL team. I think Buffalo will probably end up overtaking the Habs in Goals For by the end of the season but Arizona's franchise long shittiness will keep them out of dead last for that category. For how dreadful the Coyotes continue to be they are still only less than 10 goals back on the Habs and had no problem scoring 5 against them.

Also with Plekanec gone that's now only Price remaining from the team build when I first started following the modern Price era of the Habs. Don't think I'm going to be following them quiet so closely for the remainder of the decade now if not longer. Without the dynamic energy of PK and just nobody to be particularly excited about outside of Gallagher who I feel will somehow get traded for mediocrity in the off season, they just aren't the fun team to watch anymore that despite always having trouble scoring and not being anything particularly special on paper throughout the 2010's, still found ways to win, compete (for at least 2 periods) and conjure up unlikely results season after season going back to when Halak stole those Washington and Penguins playoffs series and got me back on the active hockey and Habs wagon. It's really not any particular players fault, it's Bergevin's for trading away everything that made the team viable up until 2016 for his hair brained gritty team scheme that to nobody's surprise hasn't panned out in the slightest.

gently caress Bergevin again so hard for saying things like the "answer is in the room" and always blaming players for not being able to develop well with the team while never seeming to accept any responsibility for having poo poo sense on how to build a competitive NHL so much as dismantle one and consistently kill and stifle high level draft picks confidence and potential. Yes the answer WAS usually in the room during the tough stretches they'd always seem to run into in November and February until 2016.....when he loving traded it or let it walk away.....

I feel like Molson somehow needs to go for allowing this culture of stifling players personalities or trading away ones that refuse to conform to Bergevin's stupid standards for the roster and having to have only French speaking management. Like it's not directly his fault I feel, but if he's not going to do anything to change that aspect of the club culture that is clearly capping the franchises potential to compete in todays NHL than he needs to go and sell the team to someone that will. Like I've really thought about it but it's all crystal clear at this point more than the need to do something about Martin and Therrien who I now think weren't really the problems in their bad seasons.

You're close.

They've been shut out 9 times this year.
