I actually became a fan when Serge Savard was GM of the team.

Gainey didn't do **** all. If anything André Savard laid the groundwork for Gainey.

André Savard hired Timmins and Timmins drafted really good players, and Gainey squandered a ton of assets for no reason.

I'll give him credit for some decent moves like Kovalev although Kovalev really was just a prima donna with consistency issues..

But he lost all of his points while letting Streit, Souray, Beauchemin, Ribeiro, McDonagh go for nothing. Actual real good players who would have helped this team way more than any of the good moves he pulled. That's without talking about how he wasted all those picks for the likes of Moore and co. Sure they helped but common.. you have Timmins back there drafting studs and instead of enabling him you give away picks left and right for short term gains when you had zero hope of contending ? Then you rush Price ? No sorry, I thought Gainey was a horrible GM with zero vision. The game passed him by when he couldn't buy a cup with deep pockets anymore.

But this is the GDT..Not exactly the place for this.. I couldn't help myself though...

Go habs go

Gainey made the call on Price BTW at the 2005 draft, and you are truly underestimating how difficult it is to take a bad team and make it competitive. Ask the leafs and oilers for example.

This isn't the thread for it, and Des Louises supported his points. You can't just absolve a decade of irrelevancy with one good call in a draft. He had a limitless budget and managed to come up with bubkis. Gainey, the GM, is a clown.

And DD just made a terrible pass - but wtv, look at the standings!!

I'd say that's one of the minor reasons he shouldn't be with Patches but sure DD plays a lot less stupidly on other lines.

What a joke. It was a smart play, it just missed.

Of course you jump out now, instead of the sweet little pass earlier.

Love it!!

Habs seem to have another gear when they play this team. They're skating well.

I'd like to see DD's career stats vs the Bruins.

Dude
there were two defenders covering the pass, thats why it was 10 feet behind him, it was the only available lane.
