Big question... Were Chucky and Pach being dragged down by Gallagher?!
How about you dunno if Chucky would have accepted long term Gallagher type of deal?
Because Pateryn still makes a ton of errors on the ice from reads, to gap control to decision making.

Are they better? Or does the local Montreal media not like PK and spin stories to make it seem like he's not as good as those guys? He's a top 5 D in the league and highly marketable. That's worth $9M in this league.
Significantly better than Subban ? Not that much.
Subban carries this team.
Im already sick and tired of Matteau and Danault. Play with some ****ing pride.
I've barely noticed Danault at all.
Sure but Gilbert makes tons of errors too and is on the decline whilst Pateryn is young and still getting better.
No. Montreal stories are ********. Media spins an agenda how they see fit.
Price carries this team.
While significant was too strong of a word, those players are better and closer to being worth, or actually worth their pay.
Subban isn't. His defensive play isn't that good, or at least as good as you would at least hope so for 9 mill a year.
I like Subban and would love to get another good player, or 2 and a different coaching staff and I think we could see him really shine. However, the hate a lot of you put on Pacioretty is ridiculous when you all seem so sure Subban does no wrong.
It just amazes me how people can't give out compliments to players and "have" to pick sides
Calling it. Post game presser:
Media: "Michel, Chucky looked great at center, what do you think?"
MT: "Desharnais is skating and will be back on the top line soon."
Pacioretty with 2 assists tonight...must help playing with centers who are actually a threat to score, takes a lot of attention away from him
Plus Pateryn has a nice physical element to his game that is nice to have.
He's a solid 6-7 guy, so is Gilbert. But I prefer Greg and I have since last season.
