Confirmed with Link: Habs sign Daniel Briere to a 2 year, $8M deal WITH NTC/NMC

[Bob b smith]

Yes! Bring on the next moves.

It's going to be really embarrassing in the next few days... But it's all OK if it means both DD and Gionta are gone.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Well it makes sense only if Gionta is on the IR for a huge chunk of the season, or if Bergevin has a deal pending regarding Gionta or Desharnais... for which he get an ASSET, whatever that asset is.

If not, then it makes no !")$*!$! sense whatsoever. Especially if Dupuis makes it to FA.

Didn't he come to terms with Pittsburg?

Pretty sure I read that last night.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Yesss!!!!!

 

[LeHab]

So long for getting bigger, this better be an amazing deal or else:

 

[Andy]

Would have been cool....6 years ago

 

[MXD]

Uh, Dupuis re-upped with the Pens already dude.....

Oh well, it appears I missed that one!

 

[Marc-E-]

He improves our Top 6 no matter what the moanings.

 

[Kenny Powders]

Brière is lightyears of Ryder. Still, People wanted Ryder back..

 

[muzion]

at least it's only 2 years, hate the fact he wouldn't have signed if it weren't the fact he speaks french

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

I'm okay with this depending on the money.

 

[Hannibal]

Now, Desharnais GTFO or i'll be mad.

 

[Account Terminated]

Didn't he come to terms with Pittsburg?

Pretty sure I read that last night.

Yup, re-upped with Pittsburgh just as the hype was starting to build.

 

[MainDotC]

Briere will be a nice fit in MTL.

 

[LeHab]

Any chance we can ship DD somewhere? Does he have any positive value?

 

[LeMAD]

Just happy because it pisses some people in here.

The guy has more playoffs points than games played.

 

[HatTricK09]

Bergevin did what Gainey couldn't do... sign Briere

 

[CaptainBenn]

hes still a rat and probably picked MTL because there is no way Nashville offered 8M

 

[KFlint]

2 years seems like a good deal for us, I do hope we move Gionta and get a bigger replacement now.

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Will wait for the $ to come out before judging this, not impressed tho. Hopefully this means DD is gone.

 

[LeHab]

Briere will be a nice fit in MTL.

He is a playoffs performer, something we lacked this year.

Yeah more and more and more smurfs.

DD, Gionta, Gallagher and Bouillon, meet you're new partner Briere!

[Et le But]

I miss Gauthier.

Briere will be a nice fit in MTL.

Yeah...nice and compact.
