GDT: NHL free agency day; which washed up veteran will the Habs sign?

[Coldplay]

Great deal for Tommy V. Happy trails man.

 

[Saint Patrick]

Thats 6.5 for Minn, nothing says he would accepted that here. As much as I wanted him back.

 

[Raider917]

We could have done that for Vanek...

could sign ribiero or re-sign gionta too but havent. it makes me happy

 

[InglewoodJack]

Dubnyk to Arizona, happy trails.

Also when did Phoenix become Arizona?

 

[LeHab]

Vanek 3 years @ 6.5M AAV

Home discount.

 

[EveryDay]

Only 3 offensive wingers left for MTL: IGINLA VRBATA MOULSON

 

[DavePeak]

3 years for Robidas ?

Good for him... hope for him that he can recover from his 2 major injuries...

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

Vanek 3/6.5 Too rich for my blood. Glad we didn't re-sign

Well considering Pouliot got 4M$/5yr, Bolland got 5M+/5yr... Vanek at 6.5M$ is pretty damn good.

 

[Whitesnake]

Boston will react to losing Iginla. So we want the same players. Boston and Habs will be looking to add either Iginla or Vrbata...come on Habs. You still miss one piece of that puzzle.

 

[Theosis]

that's not bad actually...6.5 for 3 wow I probabley would have done that...taken a chance on him bouncing back in playoffs....but it seems pretty likely he wasn't going to return no matter what

I don't see him accepting 3 years @ 6.5m by any other team. He obviously wanted to be in Minnesota

 

[Milhouse40]

All the more reason Bergevin should be praised for Gilbert, Malhotta and Weaver on reasonable dollar and length contracts.

And don't forget Sekac....this guy can become great.
Top 9 for sure.

 

[Jamie Thomas]

Vanek deal is really nice for Minny.

 

[68*]

Imagine being a Leafs fan. You see the Vanek to Toronto typo by Damien Cox, get all excited, and then you learn that it was a mistake and you got Robidas for 3 years. Ouch.

 

[PricePkPatch*]

Only 3 offensive wingers left for MTL: IGINLA VRBATA MOULSON

VRBATA!!

VRBATA!!!

Come on!!!

We canot afford Iginla, and Moulson will be too slow for our style, methink

 

[HatTricK09]

He wouldn't have done it for us.

How can we know this if we didn't even try to extend him
I'd be ok if we tried but we didn't.

Yup, we need another top 6 scorer.

End of the season, they are looking to attract a broader audience.

Become great? Please slow down.
