Still playing Overwatch... the game hasn't started yet? Lol. Was the Subban ceremony even this long?

Habs are on their second 3-game winning streak this season, as they visit the Canes tonight.
They're also on a good run lately, with a 5-4-1 record in their last 10 games.
Whenever the Habs and Canes meet, one can't help but pit the two guys who indirectly got traded for one another, and that makes you wonder ... all of that, for what?
VS
What was the point of all that hulla-balloo? Well, it did contribute to Bergevin getting canned, so there's that. But, what else really? Neither of these guys is killing it based on raw stats -- they look like the same player. Reminds me of that ancient assertion ...
Transformed into what, exactly? Dvorak is nothing more than a 3rd line center who ended up costing a 1st round pick in 2022 and a second rounder in the 2024 draft, just to prolong the agony a little longer. He's not exactly the happiest looking sort.
But, what about KK, you might ask (or not)?
A little piece of good news for this 4-game road trip beginning tonight, is that Moneyhands is accompanying the team. Doesn't mean he'll see any action, however, if he was only going to rehab, wouldn't it have been better to let him do it in Montreal?
Let's hope Moneyhands can finally see some action after his prolonged purgatory on the DL, as there are only 6 games until the trading deadline (not counting the March 3rd game which is taking place several hours after the deadline closing time elapses).
An interesting time for games like this one as rumors are swirling every which way, not knowing who or when a trade may materialize. Armia, Savard and Dvorak all scoring in the Hawks game (mind you, who doesn't score against them?). Drouin with 3 assists and Allen with a shutout. Any of these guys could be potential trade candidates for the deadline.
One other player shining at the right moment is Hoffman, with 9 points in his last 10 games. Maybe MSL had something to do with it. Or maybe, it was his Wolverine sideburns, who knows.
And of course, there is Josh Anderson. A ton of rumors about him, including Darren Dreger, the Master of Caveats, getting into the act.
In recent games, Anderson's play has been raised a notch. Hopefully, in trade talks, this is the guy a counterpart GM envisions:
Go ahead, Kent, you lovable Alien genius -- go do your thing!

Ward actually sucked for all but those 2 months of his entire career, but a non-COVID cup is a non-COVID cup

No lol. Only a latest start time I think. So some ceremonies start earlier, like the Centennial.

Habs fans complaining about other teams pre game ceremonies
Somebody tell the Canes jerks we already suck... no need to bore us all to sleep. We already asleep.
Sorry guys. I got upset with the 3 game win streak, so I pulled a Tonya Harding on Dach.
I really want Bedard.

Fell asleep listening to Ward's state of the union address and bumped his head. Concussion protocol now.
