Habs are paying Weber 6 milion in actual salary this season ...Nashville is paying Subban 10 million cash
If Subban is on the block already(after 3 seasons ) in Nashville, what does that say...
Seth Jones is criminally underrated.
Gorton is looking to move Vesey, Buchnevich, Kreider and Namestnikov. No half measures, really.
I applaud his guts.
Clarity of vision & guts to follow it...
One day we'll get leadership like that, I hope.
What he's doing is a disgrace. Decent chance it fails too if prospects & draft picks fall short of projected impact. Really hope it does too because these super tanks make me sick. Rangers fans should riot over it, they will be spending huge $$$ to watch a sucky team for years.
Are you serious ? Would it be better if they sucked and wasted assests while doing so ? They lost their franchise player, Lundqvist is done, they have no real replacement for that type of player. Hockey is a business and it has nothing to do about your feelings as a fan.What he's doing is a disgrace. Decent chance it fails too if prospects & draft picks fall short of projected impact.

They said the same thing about the Flyers....still waiting on thatAre you serious ? Would it be better if they sucked and wasted assests while doing so ?

They put out a statement saying that they were in rebuilding years, like official and all, so if fans didn't want to spend money, they did not have to.
Top it all off with you saying these players may not even pan out ????? Lol.
Kaapo Kakko is literally one of the best prospect, ever. He would instantly become our best forward since AT LEAST Kovalev.
Filip Chytil is 19 and just put up a 30 points season
Lias Andersson
Vitali Kravtsov just lead the KHL in u20 points.
K'andre Miller just lead his team in points in the NCAA, at 18 years of age.
And they have even more picks and prospect.
Add in that he's been adding key players like Jacob Trouba, Brendan Lemieux and Brett Howden and I'm pretty sure they'll be competing way before the Habs will.
Also, theres the fact that Kreider is looking at a pay raise starting this year, he'll get 6 millions+ so why even bother signing him ? He's not worth that and a guy like Howden, Kravtsov or Chytil can easily replace his production. Buchnevich and Vesey are also looking at a pay raise and theyre just not worth it.
He's not falling in love with his role player and thats good GM'ing. I know were not used to seeing that here with the four millions to Byron, Shaw, Bouillon, Desharnais, Darche and WTV, but thats good Gm'ing.
I'll go out on a limb here and say that Gorton is the best GM in the game and that his team will compete for the cup in a year or two, max.

For people stuck in a traffic jam Plekanec finished 7th for the selke in 2014. He still was not a 1st line center.
I won't waste time doing that, you can do that yourself... but if you only want one link, just go see all of Mrb1p posts about him... hating a player is wanting to trade him for no reason, replace him with rookies or believing he's a cap dump in trades... yep, he's hated.
I still recall the articles that said Jesse was more of a power forward than Patrik Laine and the possibility of the Jets selecting him over Patrik.Jarmo knew enough about Pulju to stay away, despite his high ranking and despite the fact that he is a countryman.
What did Jarmo know? Maybe what we're seeing now, as Pulju's value continues to plummet.

Pierre Macguire really believes when Mitch Marner gets offer-sheeted, the Leafs will accept the four first round draft picks of the offering NHL club.
Marner isn't about to give the Leafs a home discount and considering he led the team in scoring the past two seasons, his agent is seeking an Auston Matthews' $11.5 M AAV contract. With next week being the opportune time for offer-sheets and with Dubas still shackled with cap stifling contracts pertaining to Marleau, Zeitsev (sp) and Kadri, Mariners' days as a Leaf are numbered.

Would be interesting too if Marner didn't get an offer sheet.Pierre Macguire really believes when Mitch Marner gets offer-sheeted, the Leafs will accept the four first round draft picks of the offering NHL club.
