Eller has more value to us than to any other team. He has performed in the playoffs. Plekanec performs during the season but I believe he does not compete in the playoffs.

For the right deal, I would certainly trade Plekanec. His attitude over the years, with Subban, hell even Sekac if true, his comments about playing like a little girl, his habit to always play "tough" like rubbing the glove in the face of opponents, his lack of chemistry with any winger *just remember last year with Vanek. I think that Eller or someone else can take over his defensive duties.

Pat, is that you?

I love Eller. The fact that he hasn't been given more opportunity is ridiculous. The fact that he's on the wing instead of DD or DLR is ridiculous.

Here's the thing though... MB is commited to Therrien as our coach. As idiotic as that is - it is what it is. And he's decided that Eller is his whipping boy. So at this point I almost want to see Eller moved just so he can salvage some of his career. His spirit is broken and it's ****ing sad to watch right now. He's not playing all that badly but you can see that his heart isn't in it at all.

Nice. :laugh:

Maybe it was an opossum

No, it's for sure a cat. I know which one it is actually.. It's an orange cat who always comes to my backyard to drink from my pond. He's been doing it for years. I think he may have misjudged how soft the snow was.. The fact that there's no tracks leading away from the pond wouldn't worry me as much if it wasn't for the hole.

I'll give you guys an update tomorrow.

It's good coaching playing players where they can play best. DLR is a good winger and is poor on face offs, Eller is good on face offs and poor on the wing. Just flip them. Can't have a centre at 40% in the dots anyway.

At this point I want Eller to get a fresh start somewhere else so I hope MB trades him and he lights the Habs when he plays them.
