Hopefully PAP is replaced by Turner Stevenson by the trade deadline
Yeah...
He started it all by falling over like he was pole axed...

Oh, so we're caring about these games now?See ya later Budaj.. you had a nice run.
I remember it well and it certainly played its part in the proceedings last evening.
Our team seems to have a short memory?
We often talk of lack of vision in our coaching group this is a prime example.
I though of it before the game didn't they warn our players not to engage PERIOD?
The problem with this board is the knee jerk reaction to anything good or bad when in the heat of a moment. The fact that our two top performers besides God in Nets were goaded into that stupidity is alarming. Not one person would be saying it's only a preseason...it's meaningless Had either one of them been injured.

Any Habs fan still feeling 'humiliated' because of a useless fight in a meaningless game should re-watch a clip of the Habs' comeback against the Sens last season. Reclaim your perspective of what humiliation really means.
No cap savings if he's not claimed. In fact, it adds more money to the books.I care about his performance every time Price went down to injury.. Its been brutal every time. We have a young goalie who can come in and perform admirably.
This was an audition because he's on the bubble against tokarski and he looked brutal.
There's no coincidence that they turned to Tokarski in the play offs because they don't trust Budaj when it matters. Factor in the cap savings, its a no brainer.

And you didn't have to explain yourself, it was a simple joke off one of your previous posts.
Fights are emotional. I get it. The part of your brain that says, "Rise above it. Get a power-play", is shouted down by your glands screaming, "Oh yeah??? Well &%&$%# you mutha*******!!" Nobody likes being pushed and nobody likes watching one of our own get pushed. So I give Pacioretty and Subban a pass for being young guys with pride. And I give our fan base a pass for the bile rising up our digestive tracts as we watched our stars being hit.
But the moment has passed. After last night's meaningless fight in a meaningless game, Montreal remains a far better team than Ottawa. This had nothing to do with 'messages' or 'deterrence' - this was Neil acting like his usual meathead self. If anything, it hurts Ottawa, because guess who'll be playing with their heads up next time: Karlsson and Ryan. Neil's bonehead move made his own team's stars more vulnerable.
Cap savings if we found someone stupid enough to take him, I guess :p
Beaulieu looks like a lock. His confidence is high. He's creating offensive opportunities.
When I think of public humiliation I think having to put on a Sens jersey in front of thousands of people for 82 games

Definitely one of your Top-5 posts ever !
If I wasn't a very mature moderator I'd find that funny.
What's up with Eller? He has played one pre season game and he's not on the projected line up for tonight
I couldn't pay too much attention to the game last night, was having a hockey pool draft, but I thought De la Rose was impressive
I can see why he's stuck around despite not doing anything very noticeable yet... He's a very intelligent player, I prefer him at center, should be the ideal replacement for Plekanec in 2 years
Yeah he's the kind of player who you won't notice during a game, but coaches appreciate what he does, he doesn't cheat and fulfills all his assignments, great skater, excellent*sizeI've said so since his first Red/White.
There is a huge disconnect between what many fans want to see vs what management do see.
