Do you think it is a coincidence that we start winning games when we get good goaltending?

He was OK most of the year ... behind a badly coached team. Not playing DD 18 minutes helped a lot IMO.

In order to keep MT, they will sell us that it was ONLY because of Price that we didn't make the playoffs.

After this move you absolutely CANNOT get on my case for making fun of Bergevin's OBVIOUS fetish for grinders.
Not even grinders, but stooges. The kind who can either skate but can't hit, or who can hit but can't skate, or who can fight but can't do anything else.

coporal Bargainbin was a grinder type of D(#6-7th), Sergent Therrien probably a whole lot of new soldiers to play his grinding style

As Bergevin didn't put Gilbert on LTIR, can anyone tell me if it is possible to trade him to a cap-tight team? Could be a good asset for them to get rid of a contract and lower cap

Bergevin can work magic to acquire bottom 6 and depth D, but to actually get high end players he is completely lost and out of his league.

Goaltending was worst in the league. That's nowhere close to "Okay".

No doubt the lack of scoring is a problem too, but we were rolling with a team save% of sub .900 for a couple months. That's just not going to cut it. Nice to see Condon play well recently though.

I feel like this need to be reposted.

This is during the Guy Boucher era :

Roloson .912 SV% 34 games
Smith .899 SV% 22 games
Ellis .899 SV% 31 games

So for 53 games he had to deal with .899 SV% and the team record was 26 - 13 - 7 with Smith and Ellis in net during the regular season. Still think it's too much to ask the Habs' play around .500 without Price?
