The dysfunction of this organization is of epic proportions. I know if I was a free agent I wouldn't sign with Montreal. Between the taxes, the toxic media and rabid fan base there are many reasons why UFA's don't want to sign with Montreal. This team is trending downwards thanks to Bargain bin. A free agent that wants a chance at a cup won't sign with the Habs. You are 100% correct.
He can change into a close to the net player if there's some changes in this team. Sadly those changes doesn't happen because trades are difficult to make. There is no center for Paccioretty this year and the transition game is just bad.I called Pacioretty a perimeter player yesterday and was told by one member on this board that nothing about the data we have on Pacioretty indicates that he is a perimeter player. Seems like a perimeter player to me with data like the above.
He took the money and ran. Take a look at Bergevin's signings the last 5 years. With the exception of Radulov they were either overpaid to come to Montreal or they were past their prime. Alzner might fall under both categories.Why didn't someone warn Alzner about all of this last summer. If the Habs want to overpay for lower tier UFA's they will sign with the Habs since at the end of the day it's all about the money for many of these lower tier players.
Shhhthe guy is an idiot, not smart enough to understand it goes beyond goal scored.
Shhh
Let's just hope the stats are enough to fool some other gm to offer up a deal so good even MB won't be foolish enough to refuse
Agreed. Pacioretty has a LOT of issues. It ain’t just a slump! What the city deserves is a top 3 player and a captain who leads and gives a crap. I can’t believe there are still people defending him. I still say regardless of where he ends up, he’s going to slowly fade away. His one trick ain’t working anymorethe guy is an idiot, not smart enough to understand it goes beyond goal scored.
Now lets do the same for when it matters. Good teams and the playoffs.the guy is an idiot, not smart enough to understand it goes beyond goal scored.

I always had a huge laugh when people were calling him a power forward! Not even close. Maybe 4 or 5 years ago. He is such a lazy, disintetested hockey player and its so evident watching him out there. He coasts around and barely makes any effort. And yet does he get benched? Does Julien call him out? Nope. He goes back to his favorite whipping boy Galchenyuk. I truly dont understand how this guy has avoided criticism from the organization. Trade his lazy ass asap before he gets hurt.I often question some of the statistical data that is being presented on behalf of players, I wonder if anyone that makes them are actually watching the games. Max Pacioretty is the very definition of a perimeter player.
Captain Pacioretty

I do have to say the reputation of being the most "knowledgeable" fans in hockey is tarnished to the point that perhaps the most "toxic" label would be a better label.Why does a city that craps all over its players and spits them out deserve that? We had one in Subban, but got rid of him. It looks like we got what we deserve.

1 goal in his last 20 games. Actually it was scored by Jonathan Eriksson in his own goal. It was the 6th goal in a 6-2 win against Detroit. Irrelevant goal anyhow. That’s our captain boys.
