Expect the expected.

un-f***ing-believable.

While i'm not even buying this 'rumor' even slightly...

Who do you guys think is more likely to get the Habs what they need/want

Alex Galchenyuk or Andrew Shaw?

 

[Luigi Habs]

I’m happy for the kid

 

[Censored Toad]

ahh... if nothing else doesn't this Just Summarize Marc Bergevin in its entirety???

Does not want to trade a rough and tumble, grinder with Kharcter and Rispeck over some dirty fithy russian sounding american who has actual talent.... as a winger ? Not a center....

This is the epitome that is Marc Barginbin's assessment of talent.

How can someone this dumb run a professional sporting organization. Bloody B-league teams in European soccer have more sense.

Lucic - Danault - Ryder first line confirmed next year

Pacioretty

And if Patches doesn't cut it then Drouin. Chucky has shown more willingness to play than that excuse for a hockey player, JD.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

I guess just like he did with Subban and Sergachev Molson would accept him making such a stupid move!!!
Those 2 really go hand in hand

 

[PhysicX]

Pacioretty

Other GMs maybe realized Pacioretty is a one-dimensional player, hence why demand may not be high.

 

[Sterling Archer]

This is Darren Dreger we're talking about. He knows less about the Canadiens then anyone out there. His source isn't in the Habs but "what he's hearing out there."

Guy has zero cred in my books. Wouldn't be surprised to see Shaw be the first player to get traded and Dreger talk it back with the "well you just never know."

More to stress about in Habs world than this comment.

Obviously Galchenyuk, because what they want is more Shaws.

 

[admiralcadillac]

Galchenyuk for Shaw

 

[PuckSeparator]

Character >>>> Talent.

We all know this to be true. You win with guys like Shaw in the NHL, just look at how many cups he has.

This makes me wonder. I wouldn't even be surprised that Bergevin would make a trade such as Galchenyuk for Lucic + 5th round pick or something along these lines. I mean, it would end Galchenyuk's position controversy. Lucic is a big guy, can hack off the opponents' balls off with his stick. Has grit, rispeks Claude Julien's system. Also gets one of those delicious 5th rounders that he loves so much.

Exactly. Can't wait until this team overpays a winger in UFA this summer for reasons.

Geoff Molson is the worst owner in the NHL who's not named Melnyk

The ironic thing is Galchenyuk has shown a ridiculous amount of character with all the shit shoveled his way over the past year or so and has never once complained. He went out and played hockey. This season he's putting in amazing effort and has seemingly become the player that management wanted him to become, which is a hard worker with tons of skill.

Instead, the organization goes out and takes Chucky out of his position for a guy who demanded a trade, didn't report to the AHL and got suspended for it, and gives Pacioretty every chance in the book despite him putting in NO effort whatsoever for the majority of this season because he shuts down when things get tough.

This is ridiculous.

What's ridiculous is you painting Galchenyuk as some kinda saint while vilifying Drouin & Pacioretty.

Ah man...it's a good thing the crap NHL players do outside the rink doesn't really make it out to the public.

Yikes!

 

[Gravity]

Galchenyuk has been the best CH forward along with Gallagher all season long.

MB is a joke.

Anything involving Brian Wilde and Recrutes is Eklund-level.

The tweet message is sandwiched between the words "apparently" and "#OnVerra" -- hey Brian, any more caveats you can throw in there? I think I found another one, it's the fact of YOU "reporting" this pile of BS.

Why are we giving Wilde so much attention, this is no better than other stuff we've been posting and referencing, without dedicating a thread to it.

Forgot to add it was from Dreger initially

 

[NobleSix]

It's Bergevin, so horrible decisions are most likely.

You don`t trade your best player because he will return the most. You don`t see the Pens trading Crosby because he would return the most. And no, I am not comparing Crosby and Galchenyuk.
