Re Patches...... You and Montreal over value him so much..... that a trade will not happen until the trade deadline in 2019....... you will get a very late 1 st in the 2019 draft and a prospect that would have a slim chance to crack your A.H.L . Roster....

Of course, Pacioretty has been a steady 35+ goals 60+ points guy in the last 6 years but his last season made it clear he's completely finished and barely worth more than what a 35 year old Thomas Plekanec got us at the trade deadline as a 2 months rental.

This makes perfect sense and is the absolute truth.

You should be the Habs GM

He has more value now then at the deadline. He has put up 35+ goals a few years in a row. He has value.

he wears a Habs jersey therefor he has no value

I'm trading Pacioretty for a late 1st rounder this year and a first rounder next year. Someone like SJ.

He would be even better on another team in my opinion. Well, a contender anyway. Look at Evander Kane and the Sharks. Nice addition for them. And Pac is better.

Pacs will be better when he will have a good passing center with him.

there is no top center in this draft, the best one are projected to be 2nd line centers at best

I was hoping we'd find a gem but yeah it's looking like a crappy draft at C. Hopefully, we'll suck again next year.

I mean, there's always a chance a 2nd rounder develops way better than expected or Tkachuk is moved to center and becomes Getzlaf.

Every draft some players who weren't projected as first line players, end up surprising everyone.

Just gotta hope we're the ones drafting the next Bergeron in the 2nd round.

Well he kept saying "IF he's back...", and said that if he heard "rest is a weapon" one more time he'll go crazy, referring to the fact that the team wasn't practicing enough


If you can find the audio it's pretty funny
