The Laughs still don't have any offense and if they trade Kaberle who's gonna get the puck out of the zone?

I guess Kovy his gonna replace Heatley.

Yep. Unless they think all those guys Burke picked up from the States are going to catch fire.

Does TOronto plan on winning a bunch of 1-0 games?

Catenaccio. They wear blue for a reason.

Well, of course, that explains it.

Silly me, I should have figured that out for myself

you know what I mean. He reminded them of Guy Lafleur. He did show glimpses of flower power and for them that was enough. They didn't care about the many giveaways, 1 good game in 4 or the media controversy. His charisma and play of the week plays blinded them. Saku didn't speak French(he does actually), didn't say hello to some kids during practise, got in a fight with one of their own(Ribeiro) and stayed for a while with the habs while Damphousse and Turgeon got traded instead.

 

[Bjerknes]

Why are they upset about Turgeon? Just because he's French Canadian?

The guy was there for three seasons and was injured for two.

 

[Mark]

He was injured the 1st year but I guess they did Saku took his spot or something.

 

[Bjerknes]

He only played a few games in the third year as well.

That just sounds like a bunch of nonsense from those fans.

 

[Mark]

I believe he got traded in the 3rd year. He was a great player though.

 

[KB824]

Ohhhh.........Pierre Turgeon. Don't remind me. At least damphousse actually did something meaningful in a Montreal jersey. I loved that dude

Who, Turgeon?? He had one decent year. And to think he was the last captain in the forum

 

[KB824]

Turgeon got traded 10 games into his 3rd season. Oh yeah we decided to throw Craig Conroy into the deal just for the fuck of it

 

[Mark]

That decent year was the only full one he played with us. He was great with the Sabres, Islanders and even the Blues.

 

[Bjerknes]

That's why I didn't ask about Damphousse. He was very good for the Habs, so I could see why some people would want to keep him.

Mark, that was a panic move by that regime. People knew that he wouldn't react well to being in Montreal. So they decide to make him a captain as well. They gave up a lot to get him and they gave up too much when they traded him away. I swear the residents of Montreal would be happy with a 10 win team if it were full of francophones

 

[Mark]

I predict at least 6 good games by Kovalev next season.

We got Corson back right?

 

[KB824]

We got Corson back right?

Yeah version 2.0. The colitis version

 

[KB824]

Oh, I just noticed a very disturbing trend here.

Mark, see if you can tell me what all these players have in common.

Chris Chelios
John Leclair
Mathieu Schneider
Craig Conroy
and potentially
Christopher Higgins
Ryan Mcdonagh

 

[Bjerknes]

Yikes.

 

[Mark]

They all had better season when they left MTL?

 

[KB824]

Oh yeah, forgot about Sean Hill for a couple of seasons there, also

 

[KB824]

They all had better season when they left MTL?

Take a closer look, and tell me what else they have in common.

Put it this way, don't get your hopes up on Pacioretty and Fischer being long time Habs
