Rumours, Innuendos and Flat out B.S.: 2017-18 Edition

Just the thought of JT centering JD and 27 gives me a woody. lol

[CaptainBolduke]

JD might kinda suck.

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

It's amusing, because when they try to be good, but have missed the playoffs 2 out of 3 years and have 3 home playoff dates to show for it, again, while not trying to tank intentionally, they lose that money regardless.

You always make it sound like if they try to avoid rebuilding and still suck habs fans will still magically pony up money for a flawed team run by two morons.

The evidence is more on my side than your's in this area. The last two bad years have seen empty seats, hell this yr we barely sold out the home opener.

Charging people for an NHL product while telling them no playoffs for 3+ yrs is not an easy sell.

People would rather pay to a team that sucks but has a plan, than a team that is complete shit and has no plan.

You have absolutely no evidence to support that assertion.

[CaptainBolduke]

That's bananas.

[GrandWazoo]

I don't consider getting the 9th overall pick and trading it as "tanking."

The Habs have been trying to win and failing since 1993.

Yeah and we haven't had a 1C since we traded away Turgeon and Damphousse.

[Habs53]

JD might kinda suck.

Nah i dont think so

[CaptainBolduke]

That's what 25 years of patchwork will get ya.

[Altair]

Nah i dont think so

Aren't youhe one who had the habs winning the division?

[GrandWazoo]

25 years of patchwork and no 1C.

Carey Price alone will normally win us the division. On paper the team did not look like 4th from the NHL bottom. Even BG said the same thing after the season. My main concern was losing Markov. Knew that was gonna hurt.

I don't think people wants to pay for either, but at least one option offers hope.

Any team that goes into the season with nearly 10 million in cap space shouldn't be considered a contender. On paper this team has been horrible since July 1st.

Gallagher does not agree with you. He thought the main core of the team was still intact. So he kinda echoed his GM which is why i do not expect a ton of moves. Who knows what will happen.. but we do have some good young players and a great goalie.

He is like every other athlete with the same script

Pleky said Habs have a bright future with a great GM and a pipeline full of prospects.
