Moulson to Sabres.
Once again, the best sign elsewhere, while we pick up the peripherals...
He obviously wanted to sign with Minny. Habs had no chance.
The best thing about this thread is how light the activity there is. Minny will be complaining about him by Christmas. Bonne Chance.

............he was a rental from day 1. The coach and the media have nothing to do with it.
Blame the media. No one wants to play in a tough market like Montreal. Media is too demanding.
I wasn't expecting Bergevin to add a top 6 fwd to our lineup, unless it was through trade. I heard they're trying to make a deal for Sharp, but that's another story for later.
Media?
Therrien moving Ryder down from the top line to the 3rd toward the end of the season. Ryder quits scoring and leaves Montreal as fast as he can.
Therrien moving Vanek down from the top line to the 3rd/4th/checking line at the playoffs. Vanek quits scoring and leaves Montreal as fast as he can.
Cant blame the media unless the media was in charge of setting the lines.
Who would have thought it, Minnesota is an NHL destination like Detroit, LA, San Jose etc. LOL.

thing is I wasn't talking about Vanek or any of our current roster players. I was talking about how free agents in general are less likely to accept an offer from the Habs (unless they have no choice), because they know how badly they'll be treated in a tough market like Montreal... whether we make it to the ECF or not, the media will always try and put the blame on someone for not getting us to that cup.
That's why I'm never hyped when free agency day comes.
Less money and term than we thought he'd get. I think Therrien is a main reason he didn't work in Montreal, too bad.
And a hearty **** you to Coach Therrien for screwing this up.
Vanek is not a 4th liner. Vanek should not be playing on a shut-down line with Plekanec.
Vanek will do extremely well with the Wild and the Wild basically got a very good discount, compliments of Therrien.
WTF
