Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat Quacks in the shootout

[HabbyGuy]

They hugged for like a while, that was nice lol.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

And now Dallas vs Cinci. Battle of the underperformers

 

[the valiant effort]

Nothing manlier than 2 dudes embracing #ElonGenderAffirmingChinSurgery

 

[SlafySZN]

I get it...we are 4 games in....but if he keeps this up....how much do you predict we pay Laine. Go 8 years x 10.5?

They won’t pay him that. They’ll have Hutson and then Demidov and Hage to pay with already Suzuki, Caufield and Slaf on long term.

 

[OnTheRun]

So for real, Columbus had to giveaway Laine? Kind of surreal to win a deal (so far) by a wide margin.

He wanted out AND Columbus was adamant on not retaining any salary. It was a perfect storm in the Habs favor since we have no shortage of cap space.

 

[Runner77]

Habs continue their tradition of bringing in old stars that with their behind them but who get a new zest for life with Kovalev, Kovalchuk, Perry and Laine.

Laine does look older than he is but he's still only 26.

Cap going up. Hage is at least 4 years away from the end of his ELC. Demidov 3 years. No clue what those guys will make...but I doubt in their early years they eclipse what Laine is doing. Suzuki, Slaf and CC are long term steals with a rising cap. We will have room.

extra 20 years is because of playing fortnite all those nights (not kidding)

Kids remember importance of sleep

 

[HabbyGuy]

Can someone clarify please... Is Laine only 26???

 

[Be a Hab]

Wtf was that press conference. So many questions about Kirby Dach

Pretty sure Demidov will be our highest paid player somewhere in the 10. Something.

He will probably tweet about parents having the right to choose what their kid see in sports and request that the Ducks move their HQ from Cali to Texas.

Yep. Hopefully we don't lose him like we did Radulov

 

[waitin425]

Hopefully. Still a very enticing mystery box to me. Can't wait to find out what he is!

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

I get it...we are 4 games in....but if he keeps this up....how much do you predict we pay Laine. Go 8 years x 10.5?

8 years x 7.87 million.

He probably signs this. 5k less than Suzuki.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Laine is only 26, dude.

He's prime time.

Yes but he’s an old 26

 

[waitin425]

8 years x 7.87 million.

He probably signs this. 5k less than Suzuki.

That would be unreal.

 

[iamtalbot]

Laine is this generations Kovalev. pure talent added to the team via trade for next to nothing. Hope we can extend him.

And to think, Demidov could be added to this group next year too.

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

That would be unreal.

I would offer him this tomorrow.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Can someone clarify please... Is Laine only 26???

That’s what they say

 

[Rapala]

I don’t think he’ll try to maximize the dollar amount if he enjoys playing here considering his history.

I wonder what his Missus thinks about Montreal. Keeping her busy in her field could be important.

If that happens we have a good chance of extending him for term/rate.

 

[the]

Yep. Hopefully we don't lose him like we did Radulov

Luckily we don’t have Bergevin to screw that one up.

 

[JianYang]

Heineman and Anderson were both good north south wingers tonight.
I'm ready for Heineman's trial on the first line. Newhook has nothing on him absolutely nothing.

I wonder if heineman can keep up that energy and style with larger minutes and tougher assignments.

Only one way to find out, I suppose.

 

[Kimota]

Laine does look older than he is but he's still only 26.

Thank you I did not hear that enough tonight!
