Post-Game Talk: HorriBad Habs lose 6-2 to Knights

[salbutera]

Vegas is the total opposite of the Habs. They don't stay long on mediocraty players. They adjust very fast and they keep a winning culture. Habs are stuck with long term anchors, when a player suck, he will play his entire contract time with us, sabotage the developpment of the kids and keeping that losing culture of "I don't f**ing care". It's a very frustrating situation and it could stick like a glue for a decade. I imagine when will come the time to sign good ufa players if the players will want to be part of that shitty losing team, hahaha. Vegas is the kind of team to attract the best players available and there are other top teams too like Boston, Rangers, Tampa and Colorado.

It helps enormously when EVERY eligible player in the league won’t even think twice about waiving their NTC/NMC to get dealt there or sign as UFA

You just described most successful NHL teams. Passive but efficient base game with the skill to pounce if the opposing team has a system breakdown.

100 percent correct! That's exactly what good teams have the luxury of doing. We are so lacking in talent and depth and when we don't play as well as we can we get stomped. Our best is nowhere near enough and yes there are games when we catch an opponent by surprise but it's rare.
