You (IMO) contradict yourself here.

Adding in Guhle and Fedun full time = removal of Gorges and Franson. Even if Bogosian is slotted in somewhere, that means only 1 move is needed, and I think a "Top 4" kind of guy isn't too tough to get - and by Top 4 that means a 3/4 because 1/2 guys are extremely tough to acquire obviously.

The judgment on that 3/4 guy is a whole different ball of wax, but I think the team defense is in a better place with the 4 you name above, Bogosian (not better because of him, but in reality he's not going anywhere) plus an added 2nd pair guy.

In that scenario though, I guess McCabe would slide up with Ristolainen and the 3/4 guy to target is an extremely stay-at-home type guy.

I'd be calling the ducks and wild to make trades before expansion roster needs to be set

even those 3 games we won last week, slow start

Yeah, that's been the case probably 75% of the season it seems?

players or coaching?


seems to be a theme for me this season

Fire him now and get that Florida coach they canned. Hockey press seemed to make a big deal out of him being good but just removed for a shakeup (5-5-2 January...not working out well for them, perhaps it wasn't the coach)

Gallant would be a good choice. he could go to the Isles though.

Did your parents give you "the talk"? Pretty sure that's not how kids are made....

Did his blood not create Doomsday?

OK then...

2 openings right now I think? That's why it would be nice to jump on that quickly...but I don't see it happening.

Today would be a great day to do it too. Long-time coach fired, what press would cover Bylsma's firing much as if it's really any kind of story (just to use an example of wanting to avoid negative coverage as one aspect)

If it could be somehow guaranteed that the Radulov I watched last night would be the Radulov that would appear nightly each of the next few years, he would be a no brainer signing.

That said, I would be very scared to sign him to anything more than a 2 year deal.

He will get 5 years minimum and 6M+/Yr

Wow...you doubled up on that???

Is Montreal going to be the one's doing that ya think?

I think so, I would rather 3yrs but he is playing great so far this year and he's been fantastic off ice also. He's now married with a young kid, seem much more mature then before.

Playoffs will determine his next contract IMO

I agree today is the day. With the off day today it would seem to be the time. Mike Yeo will probably keep the job in St. Louis so just the Isles job is open to my knowledge.

Please stop....season 2 was a mess...to even call it Daredevil was a sham by the creators. And comparing it to Breaking Bad is crazy.
- stashu

You might be the only one that hated it got a 9\10 was it a masterpiece like season 1? No
Season 1 of Breaking Bad was not masterpiece

I was listening to the montreal feed on the radio last night

I thought their entire broadcast team was going to have an orgasm talking about him

Media love him in MTL. To be honest, RaduLove carries the team offensively most nights, he is making a very strong case for a long term extension. He has great chemistry with Patch and Galchenyuk.

I'm not going to get in the DCU talk that movie everyone has their opinion
The movie was trash to me

f@ck the habs

At 5 on 5

Points per 60

Bennett 1.47
Reinhart 1.36
Draisaitl 1.92

I don't think Bennett is better right now by any stretch, but some of it is opportunity. He doesn't get the special teams minutes the other 2 get.

at 5 on 4 (PP) Points per 60

Draisaitl - 7.64 (141 minutes)
Reinhart 4.61 (156 minutes)
Bennett 2.36 (He's only played 76 PP minutes, waaay less than the other 2)
- sbroads24

Never understood the 60 minute basis for points per when most forwards barely even play 20 minutes a game.

Wouldn't the better indicator be point percentage effectiveness based on minutes played, both at even strength and the PP?

They ruined everything the whole (frank)ing movie with trash and then you kill Superman at the end you blow your whole load on a poop movie

It was like watching 7 different movies

Wonder Woman better save us lol

In addition to that, he was genetically engineered and sent out to the wild to be slaughtered hundreds of times until he was the perfect killing machine, at which point he killed his creator.

Good luck explaining that in movie form as it would never work.
