Streit only played 3 games on an AHL caliber dcorp in pittsburgh last playoff. Not sure what we think he should bring to our team this season.
markov is scared now
He rolled the dice . . . and lost. Badly. His asking price ($12 million over 2 years) was insane. He'll be lucky to get a year at $5 million from any team.
2 years 12 million has been widely reported and by good sources.
Not sure he's lost yet. The Habs still desperately need him. Mark Streit is not his replacement.
They desperately need a top pairing left handed defenceman. They aren't desperate that the defenceman in question has to be Markov.
