Habs have to be better then this, right?
LOL at the main board trying to talk up Arizona's young GM as top 3 in the league when their tank is up and running 4 games in.
No. They can be the possession corsi-darlings all they want, but the team sucks and most of the players lack actual finish. They suck. Our defense is trash, a top-6 forward on a team that desperately needs them is on the 4th line LW and they refuse to play him at center for fear of creating controversy for their new darling and Price isn't bailing them out. He's not even playing a $6.5m goalie let alone a $10.5m one (puke).
I f***ing SAID this was going to happen during the summer, too. People who get paid to make the decisions couldn't see this coming because their heads are so far up their own asses. Bergevin decimated the defense, our center position is still highly questionable (jury is still out on Drouin), and everyone knew paying a goalie so much money wasn't a good idea. That, factored in with all the other teams around us having a much better prospect pool, much better younger players stepping in, and improving in general just killed any chance we had.
Awful d-core. Forward depth is pretty thin as well. Price can't do it all.
They are gonna have a tough year, specially with how talented that division is with Toronto, Tampa and Ottawa. Detriots not playing bad hockey right now either.
We suck.
For the first time in years I can look at the Habs record and say "Oh. Yeah. That makes sense"
because they suck
