[KingsCourt]

Wow.. Good deal

 

[The Great Weal]

**** me

 

[Critical13]

Not bad for MTL, but loaded with risk.

 

[jeangauthier]

Happy...happy......

 

[jj cale]

It's a good deal but I worry about Alzner, I can see him really swan diving in his play fast.

 

[Fazkovsky]

What's cap fans input ? Apparently he is declining badly

 

[CanadienShark]

Not awful, but not good.

 

[MMC]

What a ****ing terrible deal.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Habs have the most boring group of dmen.. Fun forwards, good goalie and boring dmen

 

[mitchmagic]

Not a fan. Could have held on to Emelin if we wanted.

 

[EveryDay]

Solid 2nd pairing defenceman to be pair with Petry.

 

[Alex Jones]

Alzner scares me for five years. Good AAV though.

 

[PromoterDave]

ewwwww

 

[Face Of Bear]

He'll probably be a serviceable #4, just not the greatest one. As a Leaf fan, I like how our forwards stack up against a guy like Alzner. Welcome to the Habs!

 

[SI90]

I think it's fair for both sides.

 

[Wats]

Terrible fit and term. Habs have slowest expensive defense in the NHL with weak puck movement. Buyout candidate for next Habs GM.

 

[Melkor]

The guy who aint able to open no jars anymore just got a 5 yr deal. Good luck with that, Habs fans.

 

[SeenSchenn2]

Buyout in 2 years?

 

[RhyZa]

Not a guy you want to gamble that kind of term on

 

[DingDongCharlie]

The guy who aint able to open no jars anymore just got a 5 yr deal. Good luck with that, Habs fans.

I thought everyone knew he'd fallen off a cliff. Terrible signing

 

[ovikovy817]

Very happy for Karl. He is a good guy, good Player but with his groin injury wasnt the same last year.
He already took a discount with us. So pleased to see him get big money

 

[Rasmus CacOlainen]

Congrats MTL

Yeah sure Markov , petry , Weber puts up 5 pts a year

 

[Drew4u]

Bottom pairing defencemen
