You should give me news about players that I haven't heard about
but, you kinda did it.
You should have said Xavier Ouellet and Antoine Roussel
member when nobody in their right mind wanted to sign in Toronto on UFA day but now people talk about Tavares in Toronto and it's actually believable because people want to play there now. Yeah we are the former.
This thread is depressing, what is Alexei Kovalev up to these days?
-Edit-
Nevermind, he’s coaching Kostitsyn and Chipchura for a Beijing based KHL team.
Still, I’m sure he could have outproduced 3/4 of the players playing for Montreal.

Fala!!
So was Stastny often injured and not producing in the playoff's this year with the Jets? He looked good to me at 32 years of age.

I don't think Demelo and good defensive can be put in the same sentence.
I wished he was apart of the Drouin deal would love to give him a chance surprised TB didn't keep him for a safety net.

I miss Kovalev. Such an exciting player to watch.
All we have now are boring grinders.

Whenever I saw him he looked very poopy, I could definitley be wrong.
Seem like Sharks fan are having the same reaction Capitals fan had when Alzner wasn't coming back.

Yeah, too bad we don't have a Laine and Ehlers to play on his line here..

Just sign Plek and trade Patch for futures. Almost guaranteeing a top 5 pick next year.
Will MB offer Duclair a contract and reunite with Domi?
Why did this kid play soooo well at first, but has since dropped off?

Habs cup - its in the BAG
Limited hockey sense and desire to play in traffic. Same questions in his draft year.
Austin Czarnik is another UFA center who is small and put up good numbers in the AHL and is right handed.

It's actually a perfect post. Names from the past....with last names of the present....in order to go for a better future. Good job man!

My thoughts: I believe we are all hoping the Habs can grab Stastny and Calvin De Haan. But all 31 teams want those two and we'll have to overpay by a mile for them to commit to the Habs.
Let's go a different directly and overpay a few vets on one year deals with the idea of flipping them for assets at the trade deadline. Thornton, Plekanec, Flippula, Kunitz, Green, Enstrom, Orpik, Hamhuis, Emelin. I know some of these guys are on their last legs, but a lot of playoff teams look to add solid vets at the deadline - especially Centers, Dmen, and toughness. Anyone who can fetch a 2nd in a flip is worth grabbing.
Will hurt play time for young guys but they'll get a bit more seasoning in Laval until injuries or when these guys are moved at the trade deadline

I agree with you, Comeau and Enstrom are two guys I'd sign on a one year deals.
Buyer beware on Calvin de haan. Good player but expecting him to be a top 4 or play with Weber would be a mistake. Check out his toi, he's closer to Schlemko. Not a 20+ min guy. He's a 5-6.
I think they should either target a u25 legit d man like Brodin or Klefbom (who play 20-23mins a night) or go for a vet on a 2 yr deal.
I wonder about Dan Hamhuis. I doubt he'd have too many suitors at his age but he's still playing 20+ mins a night. On a 2 yr deal I think that works.
Whatever they do I hope they avoid anything long term.
