Dunno if its true or not. JC also referred to Despres as having "Shea Theodore potential" which had me fall off my chair.
And people wonder why Quebec born , are not exactly jumping to play here. Garbage reporting.
Say what you want about ol purple pants, but he has a very short leash when it comes to the off ice stuff, especially with new players around the team. If a shred of that was true he would have been released a long time ago.

With the trading of Taormina and Valiev, I expect Despres to sign soon.
True, but wow, these guys or most of them, seem more interested in gossip, etc than hockey. I know it's to sell papers, etc but 99% of the time it has no merit. They play a large part in players not wanting to sign in Montreal.I wouldn't put all of them in the same boat. There is a difference to be made between certain mainstream franco media outlets who practice ethical journalism vs. a large number of online bloggers who make up stuff. JC Lajoie is between the two -- for every nugget of reliable info he provides, he'll also make a fool of himself by spreading unfounded rumors.

Because it is usually the franco media that makes trash up............usually. It seems the franco media love sensationalizing everything around the team.............it is what it is guys...darkest day in Habs history etcWhy would Lajoie want to sell papers (hint he does not work for any newspaper or TV station)? Have you ever even listened to him before making comments on his type of journalism/commentary? He's not better nor worse than Marinaro. Why then are you only blaming the franco?

No need to get all riled up, it is what it is...
Then why say it? Why not explain what is meant, rather than lead into inuendo? Anyhow, it's never going to change, because Money Mol$on doesn't have a set......And in that case, "Entourage" could mean anything.

I get riled up when people complain on something they don't even dare to consult/listen to begin with. Listen to gros Jicé, then complain. But from what I gather, you shoot first before inquiring. Lots of things get "lost in translation" like that when somebody reports what was said in the franco medias. As I said, in my humble opinion, Lajoie is no better nor worse than Marinaro.
He's also much better than Todd.
There's still his option to go to Switzerland though, where he got an offer. He always said he would go to Laval... BUT considering he'd get a 2-way contract I guess. Tough situation for Després.Sign him to an AHL contract and then an NHL one if you need to call him up. You don't waste a contract out of the 50, you won't lose him on waivers and you retain him in the system if you need him.
