Georges, Leblanc and 2nd for Yakupov ... if Edmondton is fed up with Yak!
Interesting time being a Habs fan.
I hate this organization, what a gongshow.
MB is losing control of this team.
A simple coaching change would do the trick for now. No need to make panic trades. I'm just fine with dealing Gorges but if you do that you'd better get a replacement in return because our D is thin enough as it is.
And we shouldn't even be thinking about dealing Eller. That would be a huge step back for us. Some team is going to rip us off for him though. I know it.

This team is in desperate need of a leadership change and this would be a good start.
Rest assured, I'm sure we can find a way to flip Eller and Bourque for "character" smaller players on our Top-9. We can then sign Shaquille Oneil for our 4th line to be able to argue our forwards aren't getting smaller.
I don't feel that we've to do a complete rebuild. We've some interesting key pieces to go further. We've an elite goaltender, an elite defenceman in Subban, a goal scorer in Pacioretty, an first line centerman for future in Galchenyuk; an good shutdown centerman in Plekanec and some others interesting depht players in Gallagher, Beaulieu, Tinordi, Pateryn, Dietz, etc. And an interesting prospect pool (no game breaker but some good young players) in Fucale, De Larose, Hudon, McCaron, Crips, Reway, Collberg, etc.
I just don't feel that we've to throw everyone under the bus. We're in transition and we should accept it calmly. So the main decisions are what to do with vets like Markov, Gionta, Bourque, Diaz, Murray, Gorges, etc. We've holes to fix, but rather been completely nuts by trading everyone, I think a lot of teams in NHL you like to have our core for starting to build a contender.
The same scouting team that thought Briere still had something when even armchair GMs saw he didn't? Can't wait to see what comes out of this...
Colorado is looking for Dmen.
Is it possible to see something like :
Parenteau + Dman for Gorges (Or Diaz) + Bourque/Briere/Gionta ?
It'll probably be something stupid like Lars Eller ++ for PA Parenteau.
