check his production over the past 15ish games. He was phenomenal early and has slowed tremendously.

I'd be happy to have him back as he controls play better than anyone we have but you don't give out long term deals based upon half of a season...

1G + 3A's against NJ and 1A against CHI is all that ugly mother(frank)er got the last 12 games...

Yeah, he's definately an important player and the Habs need him, but he had ups and downs, let's see how he performs in the playoffs.

In his last 26 games, he had points in only 7 games. Those 7 games include 2 games against NJ where he had a total of 7 points...

To be fair, he's often the only player who creates any offense on the Habs. If he played with another team, with more talented forwards, he would probably be closer to 70 points per season in my opinion.

We'll see how things go. At least, now we know Radulov has serious options!!

what is this rumor?


all I got is he may or may not sign an extension

The injury did not help, just like Galchenyuk.

The huge question is...what's her name and why does she like him?

The roomer is that he will have serious options but that he wants to stay in Montreal.

Remember, Ek broke this one if Radulov stays, Ek said it first. If Radulov signs elsewhere, Ek said that first also.

He has already added this one to his roomer resume.

pics or it never happened

Is this an actual rumour or a projected rumour?
- gergeswillems

Practice rumor?

Here's my prediction on which teams EK will mention that are in on Radulov, and why he believe it:

1) Caps: With Oshie likely pricing himself out, Williams becoming a UFA and of course Ovie and Radulov are comrades.

2) Pens: Malkin and Radulov are besties, so the Pens will move a contract so they can play together.

3) Toronto: Just because that's obvious. Can't have an EK rumor without Toronto.

4) Chicago: Because well... they go after everyone somehow, right?

5) LA: Because let's not forget the annual Malkin for Kopitar rumors. Radulov will follow Malkin to LA.

What about going back to Nashville because they both need one another?

No no... SERIOUS options.

Maybe he meant SIRIUS options? What's Radulov's favourite radio station?

You forgot going back to Nashville where he really enjoyed his time, and the coach is now gone so he would fit perfectly


(no, I don't believe this, but it is only a matter of time until Ek mentions it)

I don't believe it either. I'm just looking at this through EK colored glasses.

No no... SERIOUS options.

Crime of passion. She has to be forgiven for that.

What do you mean by "he likes the culture" in Montreal? What culture does Montreal have? It's the exact same as most of the rest of Canada... no culture. After all, Montreal is no Quebec City.

Europe (although in decline) does have culture. As does Asia. Canada... not so much.
