If Dorion doesn’t lock Chabot up pronto, watch Colorado offer sheet him next summer. I’ll be honest, it’d be a kick in the balls.
Better wear your jock come next july 1If Dorion doesn’t lock Chabot up pronto, watch Colorado offer sheet him next summer. I’ll be honest, it’d be a kick in the balls.
I understand the pick we gave up won't likely amount to anything but it's so frustrating. Dorion struggles to get first round picks for star players, he's going to flip Tyler Ennis and Ron Hainsey at the deadline next season for decent draft picks? Give me a break. We have a scout pretending to be a GM and CFO and it's been disastrous so far and today is just another window into that. Give up a pick to save a 3 million dollar bonus.
Could it have been worse? I guess so. I just don't see this as a successful day. People were talking up 'he's doing what we need, stockpiling picks' and now today it's 'he's signing guys to 1 year deals, who cares if he gives up draft picks, we'll get assets back at the deadline'.
It has become more and more obvious over the years that Melnyk doesn't have the money or business savvy to run a hockey franchise that doesn't **** money regardless of how they do (like Montreal or Toronto). If he had Bill Gates money he wouldn't have even bought this team, he would have bought the Leafs.
I'll give this day a C
I have bad news. Nikita Zaitsev is signed for the next 5 years. He is our 2nd highest paid player
If youre still around now after whats gone you aint going anywhere.If Chabot doesn’t get resigned and offer sheeted I think that’ll be me done with this team
And truth be told; I expect it.
I feel like we’ve heard this argument before.Or maybe they know they are serviceable stop gap players who will not get in the way of the tank and will hopefully have some value come trade deadline time.
How many offer sheets do we see a season? How about in the last five years? But this is 90% - 95% certain?The Chabot offersheet is almost 90-95% likely and it’s a real bummer guys

If we liked him then a 3rd to Toronto is enough,but 5 years of Zaitsev????That just seems like a huge reach to not get better but to make as many moves as possible for as little dollars as we can.....This shit is exactly why the fans have and will continue to make the CTC a ghost townbrown is my fav get of the day.
He is gonna be awesome in our bottom 6 with Pageau/Chlapik
100% they need a top pairing LHD most of all ,and Chabot would fit there like a glove....They could offer up a huge deal with lots of money up front ,and EM will just blame Chabot...lolYou have to admit, if you're Montreal, Chabot would be a incredible target. Young Quebecer, top pairing exciting defenseman which they desperately need, getting better every year...and it completely screws over an Atlantic rival in Ottawa.
Not saying it's a certainty...but if I was the big poohbah in Montreal, I'd definitely go for it.

This is happening 100%. Melnyk will not match. The character assassination will begin shortly. My guess is that if Chabot isn't reupped by January, the Garrioch slander will begin.Yep...and Chabot would become the biggest star in Habsland since Patrick Roy. Hell, maybe even bigger. Kid could be Karlssonesque for them in terms of getting fans excited and energizing the fanbase.
The best movies for you.How many times does a team trade away their 4 best players within a year? When you cheer for Ottawa you have to expect the worst no matter how unlikely. I'm not gonna go as far as 90-95% but you have to admit, the odds we don't sign Chabot are alarmingly high with the ownership and management we have in place.
