Pacioretty will retire if we trade DD.

 

[hogtownhabsfan*]

LOL at no DD and having CHucky as the 1st line center.

You appear to have had your lunch stolen by DD at some point in your teens. Which is pretty pathetic, considering most teens won't get scared by today's version of DD.

 

[odishabs]

DD is having a great bounce back. But if you can find a way to get rid of that contract I think you jump at it. Same can be said for Bourque, Briere and in my personal opinion one of Gorges or Emelin.

Our lineup next year will likely be without Vanek, though it would be great to be able to keep him.

It is posts like this that make me feel blessed that you don't make management decisions for the Habs. Galchenyuk as a #1 center and DD just banished out of town lol?

 

[Tyrus]

Neither Vanek or Pacioretty are legit 40 goals scorers.

DD's cap hit is a bargain considering what he's done the second half of the season. With Eller an Pleks providing limited offense, I'm more worried about them than Desharnais for next season. However, I expect all three to have good offensive years next year. They're all certainly capable.

I still think when Galchenyuk's ready to play center, and if Eller gets going, Desharnais would make a useful winger and injury replacement center. But we'll cross that bridge when Galchenyuk's ready, if Eller can get his game together, and if Pleks doesn't decline over the next couple of years.

I'm sorry, but that's just stupid. Pacioretty is on pace for 37 goals with missing about 10 games... he's a 40 goal shooter, if not this year than in the very near future.

 

[Smokey Thompson]

LOL at no DD and having CHucky as the 1st line center.

Seriously.. since when do centers picked 3rd overall play the role of 1st line center?

He still has to hit it and hit it more than once in order to be considered a 40 goal scorer.

 

[odishabs]

Pacioretty - Desharnais - XXXXX
Eller - Plekanec - XXXXX
Prust - Galchenyuk - Briere
Moen - Bournival - Weise/White

 

[odishabs]

honestly what difference does it make if a guy hits 37 goals in 71 games or 40 in 82? Doesn't make a difference, still an absolute beast goal scorer. which is evident by him being tied in 7th in the NHL in goals.

Right, because that's the only factor to consider.

Vanek is for sure and Patches is on the cusp...hey Tyrus do u even follow hockey? Wouldnt know it with comment like that...

Mine was similar but what did you do with Gallagher?

Pacioretty-DD-Gallagher
Brier-Galchenyuk-Prust/Vanek (if he resigns)
Eller-Plekanec-Bournival/Prust/Gionta
Whoever/Moen-White-Weise

Subban-Gorges (utility)
Markov-Bealieau (Offensive zone starts)
Emelin-Tinordi (Defensive zone starts)

All your lunches are belong to DD

3.5 million cap hit on a 71 million salary cap, seems like a great contract for a 50-60 point yearly player.

He played the majority of his final half season in Sarnia as a winger, just saying, he has not had a lot of experience playing Center at a high level.
