Eklund: Today on MythBusters: Stephen Stamos, and the Canadiens. Plausible?

I think Montreal should do it!

St. Louis was nowhere near the organization when they won cups.. so Stamkos did not win cups with him.

Stamkos wants to win and will play where he can have the best chance. That is Tampa.

While Toronto's blue line played well versus boston, who is not an offensive juggernaut. They do NOT have a top 10 blue line.

Anyways....

When exactly did Stamkos win a cup with MSL?

Stamkos won it with Tampa Bay/MSL when he was playing NHL 05 a few years prior to being drafted

Ahh franchise mode. Makes more sense now.

on a more important note, no it make no sense for the habs, they are looking for an upgrade on forward yes, but more a guy 23-26 years old, Stammer is what 34 ? Pass, we are aiming at being competititve in 2 years

I was always pissed in NHL08 when Hedman only would get to a 77 overall and Marian Gaborik and Michael Grabner would score 60 goals each season.

I haven't played an NHL game in probably well over 10 years but all I remember is that speed was king. Steve Sullivan used to be my boy.

By year 2011 OV and Crosby were hasbeens. The kings of the NHL were Rick Nash, Gaborik, Grabner and Mason Raymond.

I think Montreal should do it!

In the butt

When Stamkos won his first Cup, Marty St.Louis was 45 years old and had been retired for many seasons. But I'm sure they are kindred spirits. Also, it's Steven Stamkos, not Stephen.

But these are minor details. The point is, Stamkos isn't going to Montreal.

I often call the Lightning the Maple Leafs of the south. Those fans bleed as much blue and white as the fans in Toronto. I really am of the mindset that Stamkos will stay put. Montreal and Stamkos is plausible but not probable.

Further, I cannot count out the Lightning any year with their core group (they can be a juggernaut when healthy). With that said I would believe the only thing Stamkos would be looking for outside of Tampa would be a sure thing, a Stanley Cup contender. Which Montreal OR Toronto are not close to being that.

Getting the high click count fan bases of both Toronto and Montreal into the same post is some really good work.

except they have won more than one playof round in 20 years

dwayne, whens the next GEG album dropping?

lol stephen stamos

Toronto should sign Stamkos and send Marner packing for a low return.

Giving a guy 11M AND a NMC without proving poop in the playoffs is wild

Jakob Chychrun is Norris caliber D-man in hiding

Logically…..Stamkos, a legendary kid from Toronto, who won the Stanley Cup playing with now Montréal Canadiens coach Marty St. Louis

Cocaine is a helluva drug.

No it is not

Rumor is Darren McCarty and Henrik Lundqvist have been added to the band.

Stamkos changed his first name to appeal to the Quebecois.
