I'm still astonished they gave him that contract. In my book it goes down as one of the most absurd GM decisions I've ever seen in hockey.



Indeed. Never liked the guy.

Montreal didn't give him that contract

Just stop, Mark. Seriously.

You can't respect Ference?

Well, I can't respect Subban, Plekanec, Hamrlik.

Divers, Fakers, and Cheap shot artists.

Yet you have an issue with Ference flipping off the fans.

You're entitled to respect whoever you want. I didn't talk about them, you didn't about Ference. I didn't like the hit on Halpern. Geez relax man!

we gave up players in a trade for him but the worst deal that never happened and thankfully didn't was the trade for Lecavalier that Gary refused. Not 100% set in stone in the truth column but they all say Halak, Subban, Pleks and more were involved. azz!

Well, did Ference's hit on Halpern, which wasn't an illegal hit by the way, cost Montreal the 3rd goal, the way that Hamrlik flopping on the ice directly led to the 3rd goal?

As long as they are going to dive, embellish, and take cheap shots with their sticks and after stoppages in play and not back it up, it is really really hard to love this team.


The only thing I really love about this team is Carey Price. He really was the only reason why they even had a chance.

They basically did by agreeing to that trade.

That was a terrible trade for Gomez. I screamed bloody murder on this forum when that trade was made.

They have been making awful trades ever since, and even before that disaster.

Its the way it has been for Montreal since they traded away Patrick Roy for a box of doughnuts

They didn't "Basically" give him that contract Andy.

They didn't give him that contract, period.

They were just fucking stupid enough to trade for it

Saw the replay once and looked like a stick to the face. If he faked it then he's a dick.
Commentators say Ference could get a suspension for it. He made the move to hit him on the end with the puck clearly away from him. Halpern didn't see him and he hit him on the head with his shoulder. Anyway, it's over.

It was the Rangers, but they were plain stupid to trade for him

 

[Mark]

PP Pitts, goalie out.

 

[Bjerknes]

STEVE YZERMAN OWNAGE!

Good job by Tampa. That's how you close out a game seven.

 

[Mark]

over. Sorry Pens fans.

Good for Boucher and the boys.

Whatever.

 

[Zé Tahir]

I'm heartbroken the Penguins are out........NOT! Haha.

Same thing as giving him the contract, IMO.

They traded for him... so what? They're still paying him.

 

[Enron]

Pens suck. I can't believe they won 3 games in this series with these AHL goal scorers. This team might be decent if they had a couple of World Class centers.

You guys did well enough to finish level with the Flyers in your division. So even without the two centers you're still a good team.

Yeah, I realize this. Our Power Play let us down.

 

[Bjerknes]

That was the best first round I've ever seen. Highly competitive stuff, hopefully the second round will consist of game sevens with overtimes (apart from the Wings, of course).

 

[Bjerknes]

Conference semifinals schedule is out.
