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

MB has backed himself into a corner. Now he HAS to make moves. Other GMs know that. Just like Sather knew that Gainey needed a center bad. He made him overpay through the roof for the privilege of getting rid of a bad asset. That's what awaits MB here. That type of trade offers now that he has 5 midgets in his top 9.

So yeah, MB probably isn't finished but who's to say that he'll succeed with his next few moves ? Maybe his 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice won't work out. What happens then ?

But that's the nature of the job. All gms have had to get to plans b, c or d. Those who don't never make a move.

Very easy to understand: stopgap, two-year contract.

What exactly does this "stopgap"... we aren't in need of a small C.

Implying Cammalleri was well surrounded when he he scored 13 goals in 09-10, one more than Brière in 4 less games ?

Wut ?

How exactly does that imply anything about cammalleri? I thought we were comparing DD and briere.

 

[All-Star]

He's on the team now, so I'll give him a chance... I hope it turns out to have been an excellent signing.

Oh no! Max Pacioretty has 1 point in 4 playoff games. BUST!

I love how everyone is using last years playoff to write off everyone on the team as a playoff choker.

Because a 5 game sample size where half the team was injured and everything that could go wrong did go wrong is more important than Briere's last 115 games combined, all because of 11 of them.

 

[Wats]

I figured as much. Good thing I got the name before hand.

Is there a possibility for a compilation ?

It also sucks when a song you use they restrict it to the states only. You had a sweet Subban compilation from a few years ago that was 7 minutes long.

Don't need to, he's popular enough to have his own already up:

I think this needs to be said but Briere does not play centre anymore.
