Mtl trade agostino

Tb trade Callahan and joseph

Isthatright

1.) 09 Feb 2019 04:14:09
How much time is left in Callahans contract?


2.) 09 Feb 2019 04:24:49
@sosa 1 year after this one.


3.) 09 Feb 2019 12:36:51
Said it yesterday already, there's no need to involve Joseph or any other roster player to unload Callahan now. We'll keep him as depth/ injury insurance/ locker room guy for this playoff run and in the summer, we'll either trade him + prospect/ pick or buy him out.


4.) 09 Feb 2019 15:21:37
Ya and people are talking about their young bottom 6 guys like they’re inconsequential. Joseph is 4th among TB forwards in 5v5 P/ 60 and primary points/ 60. Yes his shooting % will come down and it’s not sustainable but he’s more than a 4th liner with speed guy can play. Moving a guy like Cirelli or Joseph doesn’t help the problem because they’ll have to pay a guy a significant portion of Callahan’s cost to replace them and for longer term.


5.) 09 Feb 2019 16:57:07
@jbs the deal only has a chance of taking place if tampa needs cap space this summer. If they don't need to move the contract they won't. But if they get in a situation where the cap Callahan is using could be used to aquire a player they feel will be an upgrade for them, they would do something like this for sure. As it stands they wouldn't and shouldn't do this but I also think there are a few teams that might want a little more then joseph or cirelli to take back callahans contract.


6.) 09 Feb 2019 16:57:22
Wouldn't be against that trade. Good cap dump move for TB if they want to re-sign Point


7.) 09 Feb 2019 17:09:49
They free up enough cap in the summer by buying out Callahan without giving up Joseph. I can only see it at the deadline (where they can currently take on approximately 7 mill in cap as is) and I still don’t think a roster player is going to go. Joseph is a rookie forward whose middle 6 on most teams, if that’s what it takes to trade 1 year of Callahan (and have to replace him with a player likely making at least half of Callahan’s cap hit to make the same impact) it just doesn’t make sense. Buying out Callahan in the summer leaves them with a cap hit of $2 666 667. If they trade Joseph with Cally and have to pay someone 2 mill to replace him they lose Joseph to save $666 667. That’s peanuts.


8.) 09 Feb 2019 18:06:58
What about if they want to sign karllson?


9.) 09 Feb 2019 23:25:50
If it’s to simply dump cap, then i'm sure Tampa can get a pick for Callahan. No need to bring in Agostino. At least with the pick, they got a chance at landing a player that will eventually have a positive impact on the team and could be around for a while. It’s highly unlikely UFA Agostino would be back next year.


10.) 10 Feb 2019 15:28:32
Trading Callahan to save 600k more doesn’t help them sign Karlsson Habby, that’ll require a whole lot more maneuvering and that 600k will not be the difference. They won’t be able to bring in Karlsson. Again I don’t think they’ll have to give up Joseph instead of someone like Stephens, Raddysh etc or a pick instead. If they do somehow get Karlsson, having a guy like Joseph on an ELC is even more important.

Mtl mete, byron and hudon


Edm trades nurse


Edmonton gets two wingers to help in their top 9 and a locker room leader in byron plus a replacement for nurse.
Montreal upgrades their lhd and I would believe nurse could be a good fit with weber and help out the pp.

Thoughts?

Isthatright

1.) 23 Jan 2019 19:27:20
Doesnt really make edmonton any better nor is this a good offer at all for nurse.


2.) 24 Jan 2019 13:05:54
This would be another disaster trade for the oilers.

Blues- vince dunn

Mtl- victor mete + 3rd

Isthatright

1.) 13 Dec 2018 04:11:04
Why. Why would blues do this. The pick doesn't help. Mete is not a good defenseman. Doesn't maske sense. Not at all.


2.) 13 Dec 2018 12:28:42
Saying Mete isn't a good D man is pretty funny and shows how clueless you can be Colt. We get it you wouldn't want to do this trade because your biased to your guy and all, but to say the other player just isn't good is so bad. He's got potential for sure, still young and developing and has a good projection.

Tons of reports out there saying the Blues have informed teams that everyone is available, including Senko and Petro. Get used to this. Once the Blues do make some trades it will just show how bad your evaluations of your players are, just like the Shattenkirk deal.


3.) 13 Dec 2018 12:54:04
Same thing I said about the leafs offers. If you don’t want the player or don’t think it’s enough, fine, explain it. But when everytime you just say the players are garbage or crap when they’re not, the argument is lost in a hurry.


4.) 13 Dec 2018 15:08:07
Look at metres numbers. I did. He may be a good defensive dma n. But his stats don't match up to where Dunn was at his age. Dunn is already top 4 and in some aspects better than Edmondson. He has skill talent and plays d pretty well. His biggest flaw he isn't physical. The 3rd round pick doesn't cover the skill difference. Doesn't make sense.

Also yes shatty didn't get as much as expected. He handcuffed the team bhy letting people know he would only go to nyr

He did get Sandford, who stepped in and played well. He has had two injuries and it has hampered his development kid still has skill. We got a first which we used to get schenn. So all in all it worked out.

Also if you actually read the tweet by Jr, it's lebrun who speculates that Armstrong is listening. That's it. If you disagree look it up.


5.) 13 Dec 2018 16:29:34
No from mtl Mete is younger and I don't see why mtl would add a pick to get Dunn. Mtl is high on Mete and he's dojng good since being sent down to gain more confidence. Mtl is not giving up on a guy like him who made the team at 19 year old as a D. I like Dunn but I would prefer to keep Mete.


6.) 13 Dec 2018 16:38:33
Mete is a good defensemen and when Dunn was his age (20) he was at the same level then Mete. I actually think mtl should keep Mete he 19 and is only going to get better. I see him as Webers partner next year.


7.) 13 Dec 2018 16:36:31
Jim you are continually offering quantity for Quality. WHy would a team do this with every good player they have. Geez you turn 4 top nhl players into 20 mehh and potential players. I am sorry but nothing Mette has done yet outside of OHL speaks he is a great player. Dunn is the second to first pairing dman right now and a PP guy. He looks really good as 22 year old has played 27 games has 3 goals 8 assists and is plus +2 on a bad team. He is getting 19 mins toi. victor appears to be bottom pairing with 15 min TOI and has 2 points in 23 games.

He may have potential out to wahzoo but Dunn has proven himself and is yougn enough to be core moving forward. SO No thanks.

Didnt the habs traded them kassian a few years ago. they would not take him back… to many 3rd and 4th line guys.

Who is in your top 5 defenseman list right now in the league?

Isthatright

1.) 21 Dec 2018 17:26:12
Just based on this season? Like who is playing the best right now? Or more of who would be the top 5 I'd take right now in a 7 game playoff series?


2.) 21 Dec 2018 19:11:22
1.Doughty
2.Burns
3.Karlsson
4.Hedman
5.Jones.


3.) 21 Dec 2018 19:29:12
Right now? Like today? Because I say drew doughty is the best in the league but basing off these 35ish games, he’s fallen behind.

This season Rielly and Chabot have been unbelievable, Weber has been insane since coming back. Seth Jones should always be in the conversation. Hedman is only on pace for a decent year pts wise by his standards, but his all round game is something to marvel. And I’m probably missing a really obvious one or two. John Carlsson has been real good too

With Kieth aging on a poor team, and doughty and Karlsson really struggling (for their expectations) it might be the most unpredictable Norris race in decades.


4.) 21 Dec 2018 20:32:30
I'm with you on this one Jim. So much uncertainty this year and defensive players are evolving into a different style recently and have expectations of producing more offensively. Rielly, Chabot, Jones are in that race for sure. Weber (huge fan of his) i think is still a small sample size for this year but he has come back strong. Hedman, Josi. This has been a fun year to watch defense guys develop.


5.) 21 Dec 2018 20:54:58
Agree with jim on most things I don't think weber deserves to be in the convo yet though. Also I'd have to add Giordano cause I think he would win the Norris if it was picked today.


6.) 21 Dec 2018 21:08:39
Not saying Karlsson has been the best this season but he actually hasn’t struggled as much as people say. He has some of the best defensive stats in the whole league this year and has been PPG the past month. His slow start just made people assume he was declining even tho he starts slow almost every year.


7.) 21 Dec 2018 22:10:11
Who you would pick in like a fantasy draft not just this season.


8.) 21 Dec 2018 22:36:24
I think Rielly has a legitimate chance at the Norris it’s more likely he wins that then Mathews or Tavares win something.


9.) 22 Dec 2018 00:01:34
Reilly deffinetley has a shot. I'm with Habby, right now Gio in Calgary.


10.) 22 Dec 2018 02:03:30
@vbbbb if he keeps up his scoring rate he's got a real good chance.


11.) 22 Dec 2018 11:30:07
@prodepth, that’s why I said he has struggled by his standards. The offensive standards he has set for himself, coupled with the expectation that a fresh start and the off ice drama cleared up was going to be hard to meet. No slight meant to him. It’s just if he isn’t his usual incredible self, that opens the door for some of these other guys to get some recognition.

@thunder, you got to take into consideration that Rielly hit 3 posts in one game and 2 crossbars in the next so IF everything he shot went in, he would be far ahead of Chabot and jones, right?! . Isn’t that how we are determining things on here now? Lol

@habby And I left Giordano off because I thought to myself “if Giordano wasn’t so good, then he wouldn’t be so good. And if he wasn’t good, then he wouldn’t make this list”.


12.) 22 Dec 2018 11:35:33
Karlsson, Hedman, Doughty, Jones, Carlson.


13.) 22 Dec 2018 14:21:54
Gio has to be in that list.


14.) 22 Dec 2018 15:05:08
Doughty
Hedman
Karlsson
Jones
For #5 I’d be stuck choosing between one of Burns/ Josi/ Giordano.


15.) 22 Dec 2018 16:02:59
At biased jim yeah that sounds like your thought process I was thinking you left him off cause you were just being childish like always.


16.) 22 Dec 2018 21:41:16
Not just counting this season, I’m about exact list as ProDepth and then those 3 options at #5 are pretty interchangeable.


17.) 22 Dec 2018 21:43:36
I’m not being childish, I'm just not smart, remember? I’m just applying your logic to everything now because apparently that’s smart. So I just think 'what if' everything went 100% right for my team and then believe that that is true reality and anything short of that is not fair.


18.) 23 Dec 2018 14:42:33
Yeah ok your not being childish lol. I'm picturing a snotty nose 10 year old kicking his bedroom walls when someone doesn't agree with him. Lol.


19.) 23 Dec 2018 21:21:38
You’re the guy that went off so upset about Unsportsmanlike not agreeing with you haha his opinion was that habs lack offensive talent and you shouted down his opinion. It’s his opinion! Lol you can’t take anyone not agreeing with you. The pot calling the kettle black 😂.


20.) 24 Dec 2018 00:42:42
Yeah ok like your any better? Lol you argue with everyone who doesn't agree with you on here more then anyone else.


21.) 24 Dec 2018 01:23:33
That’s fine lol you just said I’m being childish and I just showed you did the identical thing. I’ve always said you’re a hypocrite and you just showed it again lol. Everything you chirp me for you do just as much or more without realizing it I guess.


22.) 24 Dec 2018 01:51:54
I'm not a hypocrite I've admitted on here several times that I have been childish and biased. You can't admit to that though. Even though you are, that would mean you would then have to change that username which is the most hypocritical thing on this site.


23.) 24 Dec 2018 01:58:05
And I mainly stick to just arguing with you lol.


24.) 24 Dec 2018 18:44:05
Sorry Jim, very confused by your response to me regarding Reiley. i was agreeing with you and had him in my list.


25.) 24 Dec 2018 19:01:08
No this was Unsportsmanlikes opinion that he wasn’t allowed to have either. Stay on that pedestal Crabby. And I still find it hilarious my name bothers you so much. Like I should be campaigning and lobbying for you to change Habby to Crabby because you’re a grumpy old man. But if you did, it wouldn’t be fun to say it anymore. Think about it. If I just changed my name to what you want, what would you do with all your time between matlock, murder she wrote and your afternoon naps?!


26.) 24 Dec 2018 23:56:03
Thunder, it was just a jab at Habbys ‘what ifs’ he uses to justify the habs standings. Nothing with you. He says IF the habs scored more goals on the PP they would win more and could catch the leafs. So I was saying well IF every shot Rielly took went in, he would have more goals. It’s the captain obvious mentality.


27.) 25 Dec 2018 14:12:30
IF Jim changed his name more people could take him seriously.


28.) 25 Dec 2018 22:51:23
Habby, I’m not changing my name lol I’ve had it all along and don’t need to change it or have multiple accounts. If you don’t like it, just log back into ‘Biased Jim’ and comment how you want lol otherwise, get over it.


29.) 25 Dec 2018 22:52:10
And because it’s christmas and I’m in the giving mood, you’re right Habby, I’ll give you credit, habs are a very talented team and anyone who says otherwise is and was out of line. Moving on now?!


30.) 26 Dec 2018 21:11:29
Where did your comment go?! You play dumb again about not knowing the account ‘biased jim’ after that’s what you call me and it shows up writing just like you. Now your comments and that one is deleted at the same time?! Lol come on man. Get off the pedestal, you’re as childish as anyone, you’re as petty as anyone, you make fake accounts to mock people like other guys on here have done. You’re the definition of hypocritical. Get over yourself and move on.


31.) 26 Dec 2018 21:17:56
Finally.


32.) 27 Dec 2018 21:45:07
Administrator any chance you can clear up these accusations please?

{Ed033's Note - The username BiasedJim was registered on August 7 2018. There was another username that posted on this site on August 7 2018 that had the same IP address as the BiasedJim username. That other username was Unbiased Jim.


 

 

18 Dec 2018 04:25:49
Watching Montreals pp is so depressing. What do you think the problem is?

Isthatright

1.) 18 Dec 2018 04:39:57
Confidence I would think is the biggest issue. I mean if a team can score 5 on 5 as decent as they have they should at least be middle of the pack on the powerplay I would think. I think by looking at it they need a guy on the half wall that can be creative with passing and also be a good shot option. Idk someone like 2008 alex kovalev lol.


2.) 18 Dec 2018 18:20:06
Obviously not 100% fix to the solution, but what about Daulauries creating some havoc in front of the Net.

I think sometimes they are looking for that perfect pretty play.
Drouin tries to be to cute with the puck.
Not that we will get him, but this is where a Simmonds type of player comes in handy. someone get it on net, let the bangers bang around for it. get some garbage.


3.) 18 Dec 2018 19:25:56
That's always the logical solution Sosa but I mean if that's all it took gallahger would be popping in a few. I think they just have to shoot shoot shoot and all 3 forwards be ready to go for the rebound. And the point man have to stop trying to shoot for a goal and start shooting with the intent of being deflected or for rebounds. kotkaniemi might improve with time if they keep giving him some time there so we can look forward to that I guess.


4.) 18 Dec 2018 20:46:31
Well, hopefully it turns around soon , I do agree some confidence would help.


5.) 18 Dec 2018 23:31:52
At the risk of coming off as a troll, I’m going to submit the obvious answer of lack of talent. If you look at the best power play lineups in the league, and then look at both Montreal’s units, it’s pretty clear they have personnel on those units that is just not up to snuff.


6.) 19 Dec 2018 00:44:48
JVR would help that PP so much also move Weber in a 1 timer position and let drouin be the QB.


7.) 19 Dec 2018 01:35:00
Unsportsmanlike who is the only team in the league worst on the pp then montreal? That's right chicago is that because of lack of talent.


8.) 19 Dec 2018 01:40:18
Minnasota is ahead of toronto does that mean they have more talent? Philly is 29th with the likes of giroux vorachek simmonds couturier gostisbehere etc must be because those guys don't have any talent. if you don't want to come off as a troll don't say things that only a troll would.


9.) 19 Dec 2018 01:53:16
@vbbb yeah drouin on the point is something they tried earlier in the season but I don't think they have tried it since weber got back. Might actually work if they did. its either that or let dom ducharme take over as power play coach.


10.) 19 Dec 2018 03:39:07
There was a game they were both on point together. can't remember which one. but, was same old thing. Droin trys to make the pretty play to often on PP. the Hockey sense the kid KK has. I'd almost like to see him on the point with Weber. the more I see o the kid. the more I like. he sees the game differently, like he can see it slower?


11.) 19 Dec 2018 13:38:37
Oh my lord Habby don't be offended so easily. Yes, in a small sample size statistical anomalies can certainly arise (unrealistically high or low shooting percentages that one would expect to revert to the mean over time, for example) and coaching/ strategy is a big factor as well.

But if you can't be objective enough to look at some of the players Montreal has on their PP units and wonder if they are really finesse playmakers and whether that is part of the equation than I will tip my hat and say good day sir and good luck with approach.


12.) 19 Dec 2018 15:19:59
A little late to bring this up but what happened to the rumors of Markov returning? He would be a nice addition to the power play and LD.


13.) 19 Dec 2018 16:17:01
I didn't realize there were any rumours of Markov returning? I think at this stage, bringin in a 40 year old ( or close to? ) to run the PP isn't the answer.
However is still feel it was a mistake to let him walk to KHL .


14.) 19 Dec 2018 18:23:26
@Habby, it wasn’t meant to offend lol but it does make sense. You have said multiple times not to pick the exception as the rule to make a point. But then you choose minny and Chicago from the good and bad. Top third of the league for PP% has Winnipeg, Tampa bay, Colorado, Washington, Boston, Pittsburgh, San Jose, Toronto, Calgary and Florida. So you can pick minny out of that but to deny the rest of those are the first ones that come to mind when talking talent is BS lol

Among the Bottom third PP% with habs? Devils, Carolina, Anaheim, islanders, kings, Nashville (all teams that are constantly shopping for more offensive talent and scoring. Hard to believe that’s all a coincidence. Saying they lack talent and that affects the PP is not wrong. It might not be 100% of the problem, but it’s valid for sure.


15.) 19 Dec 2018 18:25:38
It’s like if you said leafs don’t score on as many point shots as the habs because they don’t have a cannon back there like Weber and we argue against that lol we couldn’t. It’s the truth. Harder, heavier, faster, better shots get by NHL goalies from further away than weaker ones, not saying a goalie won’t wiff on the odd muffin of s shot. But with very few outliers, offensive talent to PP% by team is a pretty predictable positive correlation on a graph.


16.) 19 Dec 2018 20:23:17
It was before the season I read that Sosa. I just thought of it now.


17.) 19 Dec 2018 22:55:39
Oh god markov is this what it has come to?


18.) 19 Dec 2018 22:59:10
Jim I can make these types of arguments with any situation that can be brought up here. Fact is that habs have enough talent to at least be in the top 20 on the pp. And if they were let's just say 18th they would be right up there with the leafs in the standings. Lack of talent is not the problem.


19.) 19 Dec 2018 23:29:25
There is enough talent. its execution that's the problem.


20.) 19 Dec 2018 23:51:03
Do the 10 teams ahead of toronto have more talent? Why is torontos powerplay not as good as last year eventhough they added another talent in tavares? How come colorodo was near the bottom 2 years ago with pretty much the same players they have now? Wasn't calgarys pp awful last year?

James neal must have fixed that I guess cause everything else is the same. Connor mcdavid is suppose to be the most talented player in the world how come the oilers don't have a good pp? Chemistry and confidence are the difference 95% of the time. sure talent helps but think about it if you randomly picked 5 players in the league and played them against the 4 most talented players in the league who would win?


21.) 20 Dec 2018 15:16:09
It's not about having one talented player like McDavid. it's about having five finesse players on the ice that can work the puck with multiple scoring threats preventing the defending team from zeroing in on and trying to eliminate the threat from a particular player or two. Generally speaking, the best power play units in the NHL have that. Objectively speaking, one can make the argument that Montreal doesn't. The end.

And yeah if you randomly picked 5 players in the league and played them against the 4 most talented players in the league for an entire game you would expect the the team with a man advantage to win. Even the worst power play units in the league have a PP% over ten percent. But that's not at all what we are talking about, and frankly a very silly argument. We are talking about how frequently the team with the man advantage can score while on the powerplay. Would we not expect the best five players in the league to score more frequently than 5 guys picked at random?


22.) 20 Dec 2018 17:36:32
Okay, you’re right lol Montreal has enough talent. The build is done and they just need to plug in role players now lol

And yes, James neal is the only change Calgary made 🙄. They never made the biggest trade of the offseason besides Karlsson and brought in hanifin and lindholm, who has 37 pts in 35 games. But he’s not talented, just a plug anyway lol

And I said in general the top PP teams have the most talent. Pick the outliers as the trend of you want. Like unsportsmanlike said, if you want want to believe that habs have more offensive talent than almost half the league, have at it lol but pick your three best offensive players and then go team to team and find 15 teams in the leagu with worse. I’m sure you can. No one else can, but you can.

Also Connor mcdavid is the best player in the world. He’s one player. My argument of lack of talent is perfect for that one too. Thank you.


23.) 20 Dec 2018 17:37:20
Habs have surprised and impressed people this season, including me. They have work ethic and pretty good chemistry and they’re far more competitive than Most gave them credit for. Domi has been great and I’ll give credit where it’s due, still not a fan but I’m able to admit he's proving me wrong. At the end of the day, they lack high end talent. If they had their work ethic and chemistry with more talent, they would be a great team. You can deny that if you want, cross your arms and not be objective like Unsportsmanlike said, by it’s true. They’re a bottom tier team in offensive talent. Their 2 best players are in net and on the blue line. One hasn’t been at the top of his game for the last season+ and the other guy missed a lot of time. But best 3 offensive players are Drouin, domi and Gallagher?! They’re good players, players you can win with deeper in the lineup. But they simply don’t stack up against almost anyone else’s top guys in the league. Argue it if you want.


24.) 20 Dec 2018 19:25:17
Oilers PP has lots of talent. Lol McDavid, Draisaitl, Nuge, Klefbom and Chaisson who isn’t known for offence but is on pace for 40 goals.


25.) 20 Dec 2018 20:58:47
The Oilers first power play unit is pretty good. their second unit almost completely devoid of high end talent.


26.) 20 Dec 2018 22:14:25
Lol I knew I'd get you to bite jim. First off calgary did make a big trade one that a lot of you argued was a bad trade and one which I said was really good for calgary. Much like the domi/ galchenyuk trade which I said was a real good move for montreal and you and a lot of others said was hortible for the habs. Also what about tatar being a cap dump? Who was it said that.? And who said he would match or better pacioretty output from last year?

Fact is the habs have enough talent to have a much better PP then they have shown so far and you know how I know? Cause I've seen teams with far less talent have much better pp every year since I started watching hockey. If you honestly think any nhl team doesn't have enough talent to be better then this I'm sorry jim but you might not be as smart as I thought you were and your setting yourself up to be wrong again. Which I'm sure you will say you don't care about but if that's the case why do you continue to argue? plus mcdavid draisitl nuge? That's not enough talent to have a good PP? Yeah that's perfect for your argument.

So you didn’t forget about londholm? You just left him out on purpose to make a weak arguement an ounce stronger?

And did you find a less talented team offensively than the habs? Take top 3, go to 4 or 5 if you want. Skipped that part because you can’t lol come on man. And I admitted that Domis proving me wrong. I said that before you had to ask. You’re the one incapable of being objective. I can say habs have impressed me and performed better than expected. You can keep saying the difference between leafs and habs is a cpl bounces on the Powerplay Hahaha and I’m not as smart as you thought?! That’s Rambone bias territory. Love it.


28.) 21 Dec 2018 10:18:35
I’m sorry. I said you were almost rambone territory today with your bias. Then I read rambone say that if Brayden Point is worth a top 10 pick then Duchene is worth 2 first overalls. Rambone takes the trophy in a landslide again, but I’ll call you halfway there.


29.) 21 Dec 2018 14:01:33
Oh don't start with the bias argument again lol. We know how that one ends. I've admitted my bias but you can't remember?


30.) 21 Dec 2018 14:09:16
Did you leave out why torontos PP isn't as good as last year? where is the argument why mcdavid draisitl and nuge isn't enough to have a good PP? Come on jim just give it a rest habs have a PP goal two games in a row now I'm just trying to give you a chance not to be wrong again lol.


31.) 21 Dec 2018 15:53:51
Just give me more BS hypotheticals to defend other teams and players then, not just habs. haha 😂

If Dion Phaneuf didn’t shoot the puck wide so often, he’d have more shots on goal!

If mcdavid wasn’t born, he wouldn’t be the best player in the league!

If Philadelphia’s goalies weren’t screen doors, less pucks would go in the net!


32.) 21 Dec 2018 16:27:15
Habby I'm not really sure what you are talking about with the Leafs -- last year their PP% was 25%; they are perfectly in-line with that at the moment (i. e. it was really good last year and it's really good again) .

As for Drai and Nuge and McDavid, you know that's just one of their two units, right? You realize that those guys don't play every second of every powerplay? Or that when a penalty occurs during a shift where they have been on the ice for 40+ seconds they need to go to the bench and rest before the get out on the powerplay? Have you looked at their second unit? Does it strike you as highly talented? Overall I would put those two units in the middle of the pack at best.


33.) 21 Dec 2018 16:45:31
Oh my I can't handle leaf fans today I'll wait till they go on another losing streak. You guys are much easier to talk to then. You know when you come back down to earth like the rest of us lol. Don't you guys have a parade to plan? Oh yeah I forgot that was done in July like every other year.


34.) 21 Dec 2018 18:58:48
Not sure what Leafs fans has to do with anything I have said, or how it relates to this thread. Someone asked what’s wrong with the Habs power play; I pointed out that the Habs’ personnel could have something to do with it — an answer that I guess you took personally as you’ve since gone to great lengths to avoid accepting this as a possibility, despite my best efforts to provide logical explanations to your perceived shortcomings with this argument. If you firmly believe that the 10 players on Montreal’s or Edmonton’s two power player units are just as talented as those on the more effective power plays in the league, then we’ll have to agree to disagree.


35.) 21 Dec 2018 19:31:24
All this because someone dare say the habs aren’t as offensively talented as other teams. Lol 😂. Chill Crabby.


36.) 21 Dec 2018 19:32:18
Your bias game is approaching Rambone territory

Your irrational hate is approaching Sosa territory.

I guess this can end how the others end too, you’re right Habby, I’m wrong. Habs are as talented as anyone else in the league. No team has a third best player as good as Max Domi or Brendan Gallagher. They’re just 2-3 lucky bounces on the PP away from a contender. Lol 😂.

“I can’t handle leaf fans today” haha I’m just picturing a stressed out housewife walking out of the house to the deck with a glass of wine.


37.) 21 Dec 2018 20:46:39
No you guys actually implied they were 30th in the Å‚eague talent wise. I said they should be in the top 20 I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about what I said but continue on if need be it only gives me more ammo for the next time.

I don't think avs trade a 1rst that could be a top 10 at this point for ufa gardiner.

It wouldn't work with the cap but i would think the blues would consider a similar offer with a couple tweaks.

I like the idea of maatta in montreal i think he would fit nicely with petry. He also as a 4 million cap hit that Montreal wouldn't mind take on and Pittsburg could use the extra cap space.

Mtl trade mike rielly who as look pretty good this year to replace maatta in Pittsburg for 750,000k + kenny agostino LW who is playing good hockey for 700,000k + 2nd round pick in 2019.


Pitts trade maatta.

If bobrovsky goes to free agency you have to think someone will give him 10m for 5 years. At least i think.
Would see the flyers make an offer like that and they can probably make it fit in their salary cap if they don't sign wayne Simmond.
