Rather get Jagr

 

[Dwight]

I'll definitely take Morrow.

 

[David Suzuki]

As long as its only one year term may as well I guess.

 

[windycity]

I'd do it for 1 year

 

[DekeLikeYouMeanIt]

Sure but he's not a top 6 player so very short term on low money.

 

[windycity]

Is the Habs have spoken to Gomez thread next?

Dear Lord I hope not

 

[Clumsyhab]

Rather have Jagr, but i'd take Morrow for a 1 year deal for 3M or less to play on our 3rd line with Eller.

 

[Jee]

Pass.

 

[Markowicz]

I like morrow, but would take cleary if he's cheaper.

 

[Miller Time]

would have preferred him to Briere...

with the Briere signing on the books, less inclined to do more than a 1yr 3M$ or 2yr 2.5M$ deal for Morrow.

not sure where he fits in though.

Bourque - Pleks - Gionta
MaxPac - DD - Briere
Galch - Eller - Gallagher

? maybe on pleks wing until Gionta comes back, and then whoever is least productive from top-9 gets bumped to 4th line? (or other injury opens up the space?)

 

[Lozela]

1 year 1.5

 

[Hoople]

Flashbacks to the Gauthier years when we heard that he spoke with a lot of players who never played here.

That said, Morrow would help this team.

 

[Yozzy]

Morrow over Jagr please and thanks.

Would love him on the team.

Such character!

abso-****in-lutely

as long as the term is short..which it will be..there's no harm in this at all.....only positives can come of it.

 

[Habsland35]

I think he is a better fit than Jagr. Plays with an edge and has more miles left.

 

[ArtPeur]

I would really like Morrow, I've been wanting him in the roster since he was traded to Pittsburgh. But with Brière and Gionta still on the team, I don't know where he will fit. I would like him on Eller/Galchenyuk's line.

 

[PuckNorris]

I don't mind bringing in vets as long as they're not taking away ice time from promising young players. I don't want to sacrifice Brendan Gallagher or Galchenyuk's ice time for Morrow or Briere.

 

[Monctonscout]

That happens to most GM's every year. Contrary to what you seem to think, teams/GM's check up on a ton of YFA's and players available for trade. They probably end up with about 2-3% of them overall.

 

[Dominator13]

If the source is Carbo, than it is 100% legit since Brandon Morrow is married to his daughter.

 

[Monctonscout]

I don't mind bringing in vets as long as they're not taking away ice time from promising young players. I don't want to sacrifice Brendan Gallagher or Galchenyuk's ice time for Morrow or Briere.

Galchenyuk needs limited ice time. Playing him 20 minutes a night against top lines isn't a great idea for a 19 year old. I think if they brough Morrow in he'd play with Eller and Galchenyuk.

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

Morrow is way more "done" than Jagr.

Pass.

 

[Guilliam]

I'd rather have Morrow than Jagr. If we add a top 9 forward, one has to go though. Preferably one of DD or Gio.

 

[Natey]

I'd definitely be interested. Always been a fan.
