Pre-Game Talk: Wild @ Habs | Line Blender Extravaganza | Thurs., Oct. 17th, 7 PM

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Julien also confirming that Bergevin is looking for a LD.

I can't wait for the abomination he will find us , 10$ It's gonna be Nick Leddy because hes washed up.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Is this who Bergevin is burning the phones for?

CH: un défenseur finlandais dans la mire?

Man another trash d-man
This is perfect for Bergevin

The line blender makes me sad.

"«Je travaille avec ce que j'ai", a répondu Julien lorsque questionné sur le partenaire idéal pour le capitaine Shea Weber.

In one short phrase Julien potentially pissed off so many people. Good move, Clod.

Clod also looks grumpy. I am not sure what he expected to be honest. A 10-0 start with this roster?

 

[Runner77]

He must be super cheap Ive honestly never heard of him

With a name like Riikola, the jokes write themselves. We need him in a meme-generating capacity.

Leddy could be a "diamond in the rough", tho.

At least a game where his team gives a 60 minutes effort?

Sure, but the more he pisses off his players the less likely it is to happen.

 

[cphabs]

No one wants to sign here. Seriously

[The Real Timo]

Gross. I just threw up in my mouth.

 

[Rapala]

If he wasn't canned after that disastrous 2017-18 season, he never will.

I think he's done this year if things go as I expect them to. Sure a ton of spin and posturing started last year with regards to our prospects but I think mainstream will get on board very quickly if we set another franchise low. I keep forgetting how far advanced our group is here compared to the majority when it comes to critical assessment.

 

[The Real Timo]

Btw, I gotta say that whoever thought that Julien is going to be anything more than another Therrien was on crack.

 

[Deebs]

No one wants to sign here. Seriously

And really, why would they.

The fans are terrible, the media are poop disturbers, the franchise is forced to hire French candidates only which greatly diminishes their chances of winning.... it's a bad time in Hab land.

Sorry, but unless Molson starts seeing empty seats and drop in revenue from the Habs crap at the stores, no changes will be made.

Man I finally ink something positive and you do me like that?

Fans are ok LOL

The line blender makes me sad.

There are happier versions ...

Is there a way to paste CJs head on this?

 

[Runner77]

Is there a way to paste CJs head on this?

I had thought of the same idea but it would take a more skilled guy like @Bloumeister or @roy munson. If I had the ability to do it, I would have already delivered it.

Some intrigue about Fleury for tomorrow's game.



The above tweet suggests that Fleury is drawing back in.

However, a LaPresse article published after the above tweet, is more nuanced and does not make it a slam dunk.

The above tweet was made at 1:36PM vs. the LaPresse piece being published at 2:21PM.

From LaPresse:

La recrue Cale Fleury a mentionné qu’il s’attendait à être de la formation après avoir été laissé de côté lors des quatre dernières rencontres. Julien n’était pas encore prêt à confirmer son plan.

« Nous lui avons dit de se préparer, parce que c’était une possibilité. Nous allons prendre une décision finale (jeudi), a indiqué Julien. Soit nous lui donnons une chance de revenir dans la formation, soit nous allons le renvoyer à Laval. À son âge, il doit jouer et ne pas passer trop de temps dans les estrades. »

TRANSLATION: Fleury said that he expected to draw back in after having been held out of the lineup over the last 4 games. Julien was not ready to confirm what he would do.

"We told him to get ready as it's a possibility. We'll have to take a final decision on Thursday. Either we'll have him draw back in or we're going to send him down. At his age, he needs to play and not spend too much time in the stands."

 

[The Real Timo]

Man I finally ink something positive and you do me like that?

Lol... sorry man. I am usually a positive and upbeat person but this Habs coaching/management stuff just grinds me down. Your post was very positive... a great dream to have

It would make things Weal entertaining around here every time he coughed up the puck.

Leddy could be a "diamond in da rough", tho.

Sorry just had to.
