The worst management of them all wouldn't do that. Insane what that bunch of clowns as done to this once great franchise. And this is just the way they look. Then, you realize how they are kings at devaluing players' value and you just give up....

Not sure what this means, if anything at all..but...


They did the same thing to Subban, not a single Canadiens around during the single largest donation in history by any single athlete. It's pretty clear to see when a player is part of the foxhole or in the doghouse. This franchise is transparent alright.

You couldn't plan a worse trade scenario if you tried. I wonder how low they get his value before they pull the trigger on what will be an enormous disappointment? Imagine if the owners and management were your stock brokers?

Max gets a lot of flack from the Habs fan base. His playoff performance has been mediocre at best. He has five 30 goal seasons without a true #1 center which to me is amazing.
He is a class act and loves being a hab. I can’t root against him...

I hope he comes into this season and tears it up!

Not the case. He's been hit and miss, though. Good year, invisible one year, good year, invisible again...

Lol how some people can believe and read into these rumours is beyond me.... The only way management doesn’t attend is if pacioretty is traded. Molson and co are not going to no show at the captains golf tournament , now I could see a few not being able to attend due to family reasons or prior commitments ... I can already see it now when someone doesn’t show up the rumours a plenty :facepalm:

Me too, only so we get reasonable trade value for him. Players succeeded in spite of the worst management group I have ever seen in hockey. Its not just that MB is an idiot, its bad coaching from top to bottom for most of the time here, our drafting has been suspect, our development is atrocious, inability to attract or retain talent, and our owner being indifferent. Outside of poor hotdog sales that is.

Its like a Voltron of awfulness. Even the leafs at their worst didn't have all of these problems. We can hope for a quick trun around but I don't see how it would be possible with the same clowns in the same slots.

It is crazy when looking back from 2011-2012 to 2016-2017 he had the fourth most goals in the entire league, this is while playing on an awful offensive team with mainly DD as his centre. The only guys ahead of him were Ovechkin, Stamkos and Pavelski who had 3 more goals but played 18 more games.

And now this...

This is just beginning of what to expect if ever Pacioretty starts the year with the Habs.


Lmao garbage Montreal media at it again. The amount of bullshit coming out of this city this summer is unbelievable. This is like the 6th time this summer that some media member has tweeted some bullshit only for it to get shut down and debunct a few hours later.

Zero credibility.

Mario Langlois also said that Julien has scheduled meetings with his coaching staff that day to prepare for the upcoming season.

Paul Wilson said invitations for the tournament haven't been sent out yet.

So there's no way of knowing if Molson, Bergevin, and Julien are snubbing the tournament.

I agree. Its pretty bad when Danault is celebrated more than Max.

The whole 98.5 crew is so bad. Even Dube and McGuire, can't stand them either.
I actually find Danny Dube quite knowledgeable, while Martin McGuire, although he asks soft questions during post-game scrums, is a talented play-by-play announcer.

I find that with time, he (Dube) caught the Pedneault bug and now he's become a bigger Captain Obvious than the old Yvon-fart.

I also dislike his vision of a hockey team, I mean, certain specifics.

McGuire is good for play by play, but he should stay far far far far far far far away from hockey analysis, which he does (analysis), and it's excrutiating (to me)

This resumes my thoughts. People need to chill. What Doucet reported wasn`t factually wrong as the invites were not sent already. He did not say Molson/Bergevin/Julien would not attend it, he said it currently wasn't in their agenda. Also, the key words in his tweet were "so far". It probably wasn't the best translation of the words "à date" IMO. When we say "à date" in Québec, it actually means "up to now" or "up to this day".



It is entirely possible that Molson/Bergevin/Julien had indeed decided not to attend but changed their mind after seeing the uprising from the fans on social media.

It seems to be that, on both fronts, people overreacted. First, the people who trashed on the organization before the team could react were over board, to me. Then, now people want Doucet's head for reporting what he learned. I mean, that's his job. Maybe he was wrong, maybe they changed their mind, who knows. I certainly won't bash a journalist for reporting info on the team.
