Post-Game Talk: Habs can't tank for beans, earn loser point in Shootout vs. Bolts

[Seb]

Let's say you're a big fan of Lay's potato chips, does Lay's belong to you? Although you won't find it in a thesaurus but fan is a synonym for consumer.

And what the f*** do you think no consumers mean you genius?

 

[Habs Icing]

And what the **** do you think no consumers mean you genius?

You got a snotty attitude. If it weren't so comical I would take it seriously. And to answer your silly question no consumers means no business FOR THE OWNER.

Everything in life is interdependant and interlocked. There's no such thing as true independance.

There are other things to consider than just financial determinism. This is not just product. The fans do 'own' the team. Comparing this to potato chips is asinine. Why not try to compare this to other forms of entertainment. Don't you own blu-rays or cds or books?

And that's a form of dependency which greatly nuances ownership in other terms than financial.

 

[Legend123]

that girl's pretty

With that being said Habs suck. They can even tank.

 

[Fazkovsky]

We are almost last

We shouldn’t complain about losing

We should lose all the remaining damn games

Just call up fucale hahahaha

 

[habsgirl5000]

Just call up fucale hahahaha

no.....put Price back in there, he was great for the tank

As people say price is a superstar and franchise player, I was thinking more Brodeur and hasek. As that is the category he seems to be placed in by some here.

The guy you quoted placed Price amond Holtby, Schinder, Bobrovsky, Lundqvist, Rinne, Rask. Those are all superstars and franchise players too.

You don't need to be Hasek or Brodeur to be a supestar or a franchise player.

 

[ottawa]

LOL. It's not their f**king club. It's his.

They don't mean to say the club is literally theirs, they mean it figuratively. It's 'their club' as in the sense it's the team they support.

 

[WickedPegJets]

I really hope Price asked to be moved, i dont care about the return, just get him out of town so we can move on with the rebuild. We are not winning with or without Price for another 5 years, so why keep him?

I was thinking the other night how Price’s spanking new insane contract most likely tied Marc Bergevin’s ability to trade Price by March 26 to say, the Flyers. Petr Mrazec isn’t going to help the Flyers hoist their first Cup since 1974, however a UFA Carey Price might have. Flyers’ GM Ron Hextall could have sent the Habs potential No. 1 centerman Sean Couturier in exchange for rental player Carey Price?

[Habs100]

Deslauriers should have been traded for a pick and resign has a UFA but MB couldn’t take the media presure of letting go of a player for Qc that was playing well...

4th and 5th round picks and improved bottom pairing players aren't going to get us out of this mess. Bergevin has done fine in the bottom pairing/bottom six department.

He needs to be fired for what he's done to the top 4d and top six lines.

The Subban and Shaw trades shouldn't have happened. But after the Drouin trade I was still so looking forward to seeing something like the following:

Pacioretty Danault Radulov
Droiuin Galchenyuk Gallagher
Lehkonen Plekanec Hudon
Carr De la Rose Byron

Markov Weber
(Mete) Petry
Benn (Juulsen)

Too bad Bergevin had to skrew everything up, again.

 

[Per Sjoblom]

If I'm not mistaken, S, Bah is from B.C., Canada. If you know anything about Canada, BC has some of the best ganja in the world. That stuff beats out anything that Texas can do to you at 90 degrees

Apologies, I mistook him for Tyson who I believe lives in TX.

That!
Or we could have emptied their prospects pool and received draft picks.
Bergevin really f***ed this up.

 

[Per Sjoblom]

This should happen for molson

The owners are known as the "Dildo Brothers" because they made their money from porn. The owners also have good connections to the Tory government and basically got the former Olympic stadium for peanuts as their new arena.

Thumbs up for keeping the better stat for the end.

 

[CalgarySnow]

Apart from the fighting bit, Burnley players got kids out of there and sat them on the players bench to protect them

 

[JianYang]

I guess where I draw the line is when things get personal. Criticism for the job done is par for the course, and demonstrations are fine if you feel like you want to do it, but I don't feel comfortable calling people names or worse, threatening the person or his family.

Soccer fans are a hardcore lot. I recall Liverpool fans going out on the street demanding that gillette and Hicks surrender the team. Fine, but I also recall him talking about personal threats, which is just unacceptable.

It is possible to voice your displeasure about an organization without resorting to the personal route.

 

[Runner77]

On a different note, do any of you love this band like I do?

Good hard-driving rock, singer's voice powerful. Can see why you like them.

 

[Whitesnake]

Let's say you're a big fan of Lay's potato chips, does Lay's belong to you? Although you won't find it in a thesaurus but fan is a synonym for consumer.

You can use whatever examples you want, I know one thing....if there are no fans, there are no products. Bergevin did f*** up MY team. Because you know what will happen the day Bergevin leaves or if Molson sells? The Montreal Canadiens will STILL exist. And chances are the SAME fans will still exist too. They will be gone. We will be there. So I guess it's a whole lof of semantics going on here, but I TOTALLY understand fans talking about THEIR team. We as fans also invest in it.

 

[Runner77]

One of your funniest PGTs ever @Runner77 !! Excellent stuff!

For real? It's hastily put together as I'm keeping an eye on the game, I'm always in fear of failing. Thanks so much for that.

The overwhelming amount of meme’s available this season makes selecting a very the best ones a tough job but you never disappoint. You and @sandviper always give me a good laugh before, during and after games.

 

[dkd]

For those who watched the game. How did Benn do in his fight?
