Ryan Reaves on waivers...cool we get to watch him soon it up in the minors

Someone will grab him .

Why? He is totally ineffective in the playoffs, can't keep up 5 on 5 and is 38.

my irrational hot take is that ottawa grabs him to deal with the two games they have coming up vs habs ...
that additional year is a killer to pick up though


Tree living has questionable GM sense

I mean this with all due respect, but what makes you feel like you know what you're talking about? Based on your posting history, it sounds like you've gotten really into reading about this stuff online. YouTube videos and podcasts are entertainment, not education or experience. You're being sold entertainment from people that likely have as much access or knowledge about the goings-on in Canadian politics as you have access to the goings-on in the Canadiens' front office. This is like me reading tweets from Eklund or Pagnotta and thinking I know how to run a hockey team.

It's a good thing to be looking for answers and I think seeing that something is wrong and wanting to fix it is a great trait to have. I think it means you care about what goes on and how it impacts people. We might not see eye-to-eye on this stuff, but I hope with all the craziness to come, we do what we can to stick together and help our neighbours/fellow Habs fans through it.

I say all this as a person very unhappy with the current political climate and no specific political party affiliation. While my expertise is not broad-scoped Canadian politics, I have education and experience working in Canadian and international politics. I recall a post of yours mentioning the WEF - I know technical-level analysts that have engaged directly and regularly with that organization and I'd be happy to clarify what their purpose and organizational beliefs are over PM (or really any other political topic you might want to discuss). I don't want to spoil it, but it's tragically boring and unquestioningly pro-capitalism.

Anyway, big game tonight.

Go Habs Go

Without turning this into a political debate, any chance of educating those of us who would like a clearer insight or at least the proper channels to educate ourselves without having it be fake news or sensationalism or entertainment.

I also do not like where we are in this current political climate but Canadians will have an important decision in our upcoming federal election and I just don't know where to inform myself and would like help from someone educated.

I once read somewhere (I think it was Denzel Washington who said it) If you don't read/watch the news you are un-informed, and if you read or watch the news you are mis-informed. That stuck with me

You can PM if you'd like, I truly would like to learn more.

Thank you

Utah with an early 1-0 lead on Detroit.

Edit: didn't even finish typing my comment and Detroit ties it lol

I thought it was a joke but the Sabres extended Jordan Greenway for 2 years at 4 million per season. Wtf is wrong with that organization?
