GDT: Game 22: Jets @ Habs | In the hunt | Thurs. Mar. 4th, 7 PM ET -- TSN2, RDS, TSN3

[MasterD]

This board is better when Price and Julien can't be blame.......I see many now are talking about the real problems out there.

Julien was partly to blame, Price is partly to blame, Danault is partly to blame, but ultimately this team has been horrible for 25 years, and even worse since Molson bought the team back. Under Gillette we made some interesting moves and the team was exciting. As long as Molson is owner and does not believe he needs to hire a President of Hockey Operations who knows something about hockey, we're bound to suck.

 

[Pacciosoftie]

Why does this year’s draft have to suck? Knowing our luck we’ll pick top 3 again and draft another galchenbust.

 

[Goldenhands]

At this point, just trade Danault for what you can get and slot Poehling between Gallagher and Tatar...

Lehkonen cant make a pass to save his live, he belongs on the fourth line and move up Perry on the KK line...

 

[SnapVirus]

Danault should be playing with scrubs on a 3rd or 4th line. His inpaptitude to create anything offensiveky breaks completely Tatar/Gallagher.

Toffoli - Kotkaniemi - Gallagher
Drouin - Suzuki - Tatar
Lekhonen - Evans - Perry
Byron - Danault - Armia

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Bergy going "all in" with this team......

 

[David Suzuki]

I doubt that would violate, and it certainly wouldn’t be a fundamental breach that would lead to voiding the contract.

Time for Molson to hire the good lawyers

 

[Rapala]

Window..
ROFL.

Sure just picture a hole in a shattered front windshield.

 

[Pacciosoftie]

Trade Danault for scraps. Just get him off this team he’s a net negative and locker room problem

 

[Rob Sense]

Hmm, from reading here seems like our biggest issues right now are jersey and pad colouring.

you missed the point...between DA ears! take a bunch of no talent over paid losers and mix them up and they get worse. Get rid of the jerseys and the 7-8 dead weight millionaires and TANK like TOR, EDM an OTT for 5 years then hope for the best!!!

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Once again we were fooled by a great start... This team is depressing.

Did we ever dodge a bullet with him turning down a contract extension.

Won't happen. Certainly not after Covid.

 

[habdynasty]

They had no problem sticking Domi on the 4th line last year why can’t they do it with Danault ? O we probably know why.

Was that President of Hockey Ops going to convince Stamkos or JT to sign in Mtl. Will that Pres also convince any of the top end players to waive NTC/NMC? Will they perhaps offer a helicopter ride to sway them?

The team is devoid of game breaking talent, and it shows

 

[Tighthead]

No, no lawyer could make a case for that. There’s a CBA. It would just be an embarrassment and a distraction.

 

[Pacciosoftie]

We all know damn well why. And it’s probably one of the top reasons why this team always sucks.

 

[First Line]

I know many of you will take this the wrong way, but it's the truth..

I watch both the Leafs and the Habs, and it's like going from watching the Harlem Globetrotters (Leafs) to watching an AHL/Beer League team (Habs).

The analogy you were looking for is the Washington Generals!

 

[Habs178]

I’m unable to watch, and can’t read it all. Updates on everything please?

 

[Rob Sense]

It's not a single play, it's Danault's cumulative lack of offence that's now in its second year of futility. Every game our supposed top C goes without scoring is another game the Habs' offence is compromised.

cumultative lack of offense...you mean the entirety of his monumental chef-d'oeuvres...do not diminish how hard he is working to fail catastrophically.

 

[OnTheRun]

What else could it be? Marc won the GM of year award during the first week the season, the team he built is that good.

 

[Riddick412]

Not sure but my guess would be either a language thing or the Scott Malkinson situation?

 

[David Suzuki]

No, no lawyer could make a case for that. There’s a CBA. It would just be an embarrassment and a distraction.

Lawyers can make an argument for anything. Maybe Geoff slides a bit of money to the right people and next thing you know.

 

[GHJimmy]

Habs did terrible in the first period, although Toffoli got a nice assist

 

[sheed36]

The jersey color is the least of our problems.

Well no organizational plan should be trying to sign UFAs in the first place but those guys follow talent. Remember how the Leafs could never get free agents and people would come up with bullshit excuses, then they got exciting stars and Tavares went there? UFAs want to play with contenders and good players. The Leafs used to suck and no one good wanted to play there. Right now, why would any premiere UFA come to try and get the 8 seed?
