i think he wouldn't give a poop because he signed his contract at 22 while Vanek is 30. i understand your point but you make it seem like Moulson will cost $3 million or something. you're still talking about a big contract to a 30-year-old forward that comes with risk. i'll take the riskier contract that comes with higher potential rewards.

Well said.

I doubt Moulson wants 7 years at 7+...

As for reward ? I'm quite sure both players would provide similar numbers for the Habs

Now you're comparing Vanek and Clarkson? Oh boy. Ok, I'll accept Moulson as the comparison, because you're getting worse.

They play the wing and both would play on our first line.

They also score goals.

Different styles maybe.. but at the end of the day, both players would provide offense and size to the Habs.

Different styles maybe? Size? T'es completement fou toi?

IMHO, Moulson is a bad fit because his game is too similar to Pacioretty. We need complementary scorers. Vanek's combination of hit-pass-goal last night was really something.

Vanek will be traded to the team he wants to sign with, for a draft pick.

That is all.

Vanek is more important than Markov. Need to re-sign him for sure.

Moulson's 6'1

His hit on Kronwall was kind of an obstruction, both were racing for the puck but a good 5-6 feet away.

Great hockey play and great pass to DD after

just shows you how little offensive talent we have on this team when a guy like Vanek comes in here and we're all poopting ourselves. he's not even a top-10 forward.

I'm not saying he isn't tall Marty. But he doesn't play a big game.

Maybe he could compliment PLek's wing ?

that guy... 46 points in like 52 games or something.
that contract looks a bit different than it did in November. though this is a big playoff for him.

He makes up for the missed opportunities. Hey, a guy like Andrew Ladd was UFA at some point, and was signed by WINNIPEG.

HE's not a banger... he's no Clarkson...

Does Vanek play a big game ? Nope.

If this team can sign Vanek, Moulson or any other forward taller than Briere, MB will be doing something right.
