Glad the habs passed on that price. Concerned the wingers with the addition of Hoffman are going to run out of quality centres to play with tho. Suzuki is fine but it’s pretty thin after that. Would they ever try drouin at centre again?

Good point, how many points did he get the year he played centre?

You like that one don’t you?

the pic or the person?

i do not like him sam i am.

Turcotte and Vilardi are moved to wing. Danault is the 3.
- Not_Yan

Too bad he didn't want to stick around to have that exact same role in Montreal.

I like Phil, but I'm glad we didn't overpay him.

I'm disappointed a 500k difference was enough to make him leave.

Something like 45?

He's not going back to centre.

I am thinking if we don’t get 2C that maybe Plan B

I'm trying to figure lines out.

Habs should have plenty of depth on the wing that's for sure....

Everything will work out fine when KK shows up a changed man in 2 months.

I mean my proposal

oh i like any big shakeup. big fan of multiplayer trades too.

I'd consider this as a plan F.

The thing is I don’t think he will, even if he does is Evans a good enough 3C

He'll have Poehling breathing down his neck if he doesn't pull it off.

Some stability in wingers will do wonders for KK, who pretty much played with different people every game.

He'll have Poehling breathing down his neck if he doesn't pull it off.

Breathing down his neck both for 4C position

I mean my proposal
- habs88888

It's not a proposal if you don't state who the Habs give up.

He'll have Poehling breathing down his neck if he doesn't pull it off.
- Scabeh

I buy that one to me that’s the last chance for KK

Have you seen Poehling play in Laval last year?

He's ready to play in the NHL.

- habs88888

Last chance is a bit far.

But he needs to show significant improvement for sure.

I will believe it when I see it, AHL and NHL are 2 different things

A lot of it is mental he can’t be several steps back in the regular season

VAN only has 14m left and they have to sign both Hugues and Petersson +3 other RFA.
3.5m are also used on the LTIR for Ferland. Holy

They are going to trade something for sure. Maybe Tyler Myers?

I dunno, I think I’d give him a shot there before being a 5 million dollar healthy scratch because he’s not going to play infront of most of the wingers on the roster. What’s the alternative at centre ice? Jake evens ?

I'm willing to bet Evans can become almost as good defensively and almost as good offensively in the very short term, for a fraction of the price.

So if KK takes a step and Poehling can become a NHL regular, we'll be fine.

We're talking about replacing Danault here, not Crosby....

I believe after Jim's big house cleaning the past few days they have enough cap space for Hughes/Petersson on bridge deals.

We want someone better than Danault to have a chance at the playoffs next season
