Let Subban stay home... we will suck but only have to watch the car wreck for 48 games and then you get a better pick.

if they give the worst 14 teams a lottery pick i'm not too sure its gonna pay off this time

Subban is not more important to the team than Price. Therefore, he gets less or he can go (frank) himself.
- Dgrdnr


i definetly agree with this, but i'm also sure he wont ask for more than Price

I hope Bergevin follows through with his plan, and tells him to go (frank) himself.

Seems he won't be the type to panic and fall under pressure though

ok, if you feel this s what people are doing, try writing one post, in response to this one, that accurately reflects what you would give PK Subban and why. Please be succinct.

Subban better get his ass to camp ASAP either way.. Other players have been playing, his ass has been continuously on TV for the past 2 months.

P.K. Subban 24:18 36P 23 years old 5.5 mil minimum

YUUUUP

So Frenchy, as I know you are also just messing with our new friend here, what is your assessment of PK's value at present and going forward? Who do you feel are legitimate comparables in terms of present play AND potential going forward?

If he won't respond to clear posts, I'm going to suggest no one bother unless you're trolling the troll.

- pete26


i'm really not sure at this point i'd love it if he were reasonable enough to accept 3-4 years it'd be less headache for everyone involved i'm sure he'll get paid big eventually either way so i dunno i just know right now considering all circumstances he's got a slight advantage in leverage than most with his negotiation since the Habs dont have anyone to take up what he brings to the team and the young'ns arent ready in Hamilton (and damn has that ever been made clear this year...yikes)

much less chance though - NBA - 1st pick seems to go to a team other than last most years.

4 mil 2 years, kid's erratic but sick. Two-way defenders who hit are rare, needs to learn to not turn it over so much or he'll be getting the Neon Dion treatment. If he develops more you give him whatever he wants.

Still better odds to get a better pick if you suck.

As of now, anywhere in the top8 should net us a future NHL player (maybe a superstar)

Pacs got 4.5.. Gorges is 3.9, Markov 5.75, Pleks 5... He should be in the Pacs Gorges area..
