As I told Monkey yesterday, I manage to keep the Habs thread on the main page with a blog per week.

Pretty sure he (or someone else, but he'd be good at it I'm sure) could manage that. It's not THAT time consuming if you're not talking about the day-to-day, announcing results, stuff.

Congrats on your new role. I know you'll do great.

If they can fit three Lane Hutsons in a trench coat, they'll have a real person!

He is tiny but their pool of prospects on the blueline is pretty good.

Glad they didn't take Iginla because that would have been a good pick for them.

Lawson Crouse doesnt seem to be adjusting to the Salt Lake experience. Worth a look

Just keep tanking.

If you're not first, be last. It's just the way the NHL rewards failure.

You guys really badly need a legit 1st line C. Then, the Habs will be scary again as the blueline develops into a wall.

Buffalo's been tanking for like a decade and a half. At some point you have to do more than tank, or you just end up with a bunch of talented kids with no guidance surfing for their big cap crunching paydays.

I’ve been reading your blog, good stuff man. I don’t post about the Habs because when I try to say something good about them I burst out laughing.

Eichel and Reinhart won Cups. Buffalo just wasn't smart enough to keep them healthy and happy to have it happen in Buffalo. ROR was another they let go.

There's a long list of players Buffalo either drafted and dumped or whiffed on at the draft.

His dad works for the Leafs and Utah is no longer his hometown team.

Plus the Matthews and Knies Arizona connection.

I'd say there's a greater than zero chance they can get Doan. Just a matter of price.

Cowen would be involved with the swap I think if it was to happen.

Captaincy too much I guess.

Detroilet's PK is less than 70%, the leagues hottest PP is going to thrust their Captain's load (management) all over their faces!!! LGL
