Confirmed with Link: Tomas Plekanec Back with Habs (1-Year @ $2.25M + Bonuses - Could Go to $3.5M)

[Luigi Habs]

Marc Bergevin

‘Go get a dog if you want loyalty ‘ - doesn’t sign Markov

Then goes to sign Plekanec

 

[Lshap]

That would hurt his value at the deadline though.

True, but a deadline acquisition is only paid for the remainder of the season. Maybe a half-million difference.

 

[Le Tricolore]

Knew this was happening. For one year can't be upset.

 

[jaffy27]

Whatever. Loved Pleks in his prime. I'm okay with this if Julien plays him on the 3rd or 4th line and he's paid around $1.5.

Under 2m$ is perfect

Up to 3m$......ok then

Up to 4m$......don’t like it

Above 4m$......hate it!!!!

Nice thing here is we can flip him for another 2nd rounder.....maybe a 3rd!!

I think Markov May have been vocally against management and their moves, be it the Subban trade or the coaching non moves.

I think Bergevin had a distaste for the general.

1 year, 4M. Here's our second line center guys!

Ya, but who's our 1st liner?

 

[Zorba]

Yes. We can. He’s f***ing done

 

[BrendanGallagher11]

Srsly
We should embrace the rebuild

Welcome back plek

 

[frederixx]

You do need some vets in your team and honestly he’s a good pick up for a rebuild. You don’t to repeat the same mistake the oilers did by not surrounding your young players.

 

[darknife2311]

another year of misery to predict ... so disappointing as a team, the parties deserve better

Up to 3m$......ok then

Up to 4m$......don’t like it

Above 4m$......hate it!!!!

It doesn't matter how much we pay pleks seeing as it's a one year deal in a year where we couldn't possibly fill our cap space up. Who cares what he gets paid.

Yes. We can. He’s ****ing done

But wait I thought you just mentioned this was somehow contrary to a rebuild?

 

[nhlfan9191]

If Bergevin was smart, he would start talking about a rebuild. Not that he has a choice.

 

[BrendanGallagher11]

The contract doesnt really matter
Its one year and no big name free agents wanna come here

We got the $$$ to spend

Plek 1 yr 7 mill

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

This was an obvious move

1 year deal, buffer until the kids are ready, flip at the deadline.

 

[David Suzuki]

Yes. We can. He’s ****ing done

I mean by the looks of your posts when are you not upset about something meaningless?

 

[Habs Icing]

Whatever. Loved Pleks in his prime. I'm okay with this if Julien plays him on the 3rd or 4th line and he's paid around $1.5.

That's like your wife saying she's okay with you, Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek on a desert island for a year as long as you just look.

Totally agree.

Bergevin preaches attitude and character. Lol. Markov has more of both in his big toe. Also, I challenge MB to spell either word correctly on the first try.

 

[Michelangelo]

Free 2nd at the deadline, sure

 

[darknife2311]

if we really rebuild we must exchange Pacioretty now !!!! Bergevin do your job !!!!

It is contrary.
Let DLR play. Pleks is done. He’s horse shit

 

[Zorba]

And Weber. And price and Byron

How closely can I look?

 

[Tyson]

Pleks is perfect for teaching our young players. No one works harder in practice. He sets a good example.

Same concept in the AHL is used. You bring in vets to help develop your prospects.

 

[Thebesthockey]

at least the hot dogs are cheaper

 

[llamateizer]

Better be under 2M but not a fan of this at all.

Reaves got 2.775M I expect 3.
