Re: Habs News & Notes: 2017-18 Regular Season
Even in his peak, he was barely getting 20 goals, he was never a goal scorer. We got him for his playmaking abilities, which we haven't seen yet.
I thought for the price, there was no real risk in getting him. I was not alone on this, quite a few pundits thought it was a good signing for the price. And it's not like our prospects have made our decisions very hard either. But from from I've seen so far, he's been a waste of roster spot and I'm not afraid to admit that I've been wrong. I'm not really seeing any turn around on his part either.
I wanted Radulov, and I'm mad we couldn't close the deal but once he moved on, there was little left on the free market to try to find some offense.
He hasn't scored 15 goals in nearly a decade , he is finished as a contributor and we keep picking up these slugs.
