I was asked recently who was my least favourite hab of all time. I had a lot of trouble coming up with an answer. Who's yours?

Edit: I should say that mike ribeiro was what I came up with in the end

I don’t actively dislike any of them but Traverse was the worst for my money.
Irregardless of contract or expectation or usage or potential unfilled upside.

He was wild with the puck on his stick. He couldn’t go like 5 seconds without doing something comically god awful

I second this.....Every time I watched Reverse, I thought to myself does this guy have something on management? because there's no f***ing way he should be on this team, or the NHL.

Steve Begin

Not only is he the least skilled hockey I have ever seen but I also remember him taking an absolutely stupid high stick last game of the season which cost the Habs a playoff spot.
He was unskilled. But he could really fulfill his role in the era he played in.

I can think of a lot more useless players than Begin. But the title is least favorite. And everyone will have their favorites and least favorites.

player Danault
but above him : Bergevin and Bobrov
Interesting that one of the better two way players in the entire league is one of your least favorites.

Yeah lol same. I hadn’t watched the Habs or hockey even in about 6 years. It was the year Theodore was lights out. So seeing such a mediocre Habs team was a shock in itself.

But I don’t think I’ve seen a player before or since who was that horrific.

Brandon Davidson, Dwight King, Aebischer, come to mind.

Any useless vet that took away ice time from the youth.

I'll add others.

I just dislike him in general , he has that kind of annoying presence i just can't.
I think he's overrated but that's my opinion

Not liking Danault is sad and liking bums like Drouin, Hoffman, Beaulieu better is just inexcusable and egregiously terrible taste.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion no matter how grotesque it may be......I loved Danault's game as would any other person who believes winning hockey games is the goal.

Ryan o'byrne. Something bad happened every time he was on the ice.

The most disappointing for actually talented players is Max pacioretty. Great regular season player. Terrible in the playoffs.
