PK will get 8x8

Yup. Doesn't matter if you, I or that Vantel guy think he is worth it, that is the market price.

Disagree. Horvat was misused. He'll be a really good player for a long time.

Not quite what Van fans think, but whats new....Oh and Shink should have been a top 5 pick according to some of them....

Brent Sutter misused a number of players on that team.

They are not good enough. Way too small for a long playoff drive and not enough talent. They are not close to being ready.

Oh, Okay. In the West we basically figure if you make the playoff's you have a shot...or at least 5 teams do...guess there is less parity in the East?

Nothing against the Leafs but a lot of long term contracts throughout this league will soon be despised by teams. Too many franchise player contracts are handed out to players that don't deserve them.
- VANTEL

Sure. Like 37 year old sedins at 7 mil each. And then there are some that no GMs would already touch with a ten foot pole like Burrows and Luongo.

I doubt Gabby goes for a tonne...maybe he does, who knows? But the point I'm making is aside from the Pens or Bruins-who are both beatable, who is really preventing the Habs from making a push?
- Jeropotato



Too soft still. Just like last year, dream match up for a late seed in the east.

Assuming they aren't a late seed themselves.

I see....I guess I don't see the East competition as "too tough" for the Habs. the 2 aforementioned teams and really thats it.

Its not even about the skill level of the teams. A seven game series is a different animal. As the Send showed last year, its very easy to push them around. Look at the Send roster that won that series. A bunch of plugs. The one thing they had going for them was grit. Admittedly the habs added a but of grit. But not nearly enough.

Of course you don't. I don't mind telling you how crappy your team is and the junk shape the organization.

Canucjs fans live sitting in their threads talking about how great their team is. Truth is they're one of the most screwed teams in the league, but your threads are full of a bunch of delusional fools.

25 mil. Luongo, sedins, burrows. Till theyre 90.

Is THIS why they just added Carcilo???

Oh, I am well aware of the need for more Jam in the playoff's,just thought the Habs were a good enough team to add some pieces for a run. If they played in the West they would get brutalized though by San Jose,St.Louis,LA or Anaheim, not to mention the BlackHawks. Would probably be able to get by the Coyotes or Canucks though.

Yeah, he might be washed up a bit. New team might be good for him though.

The difference between the west and east is way overblown. The year before last the intercnference record was almost exactly split. After a month of this season it was roughly 70% games won by east. But teams like Boston and Pitts hadn't gone on west coast swings, while buffalo and the likes had. The reverse was true in the west, and Anaheim and the like had a lot of inter conference games. In the last couple of months the east has been soundly winning more interconf games than the west. Its evening out fast.

I'd also say there are several teams that can easily push around the habs, physically. Most, in fact. They're just a soft team.

They have an aversion to the truth. For some reason it stings them.

Holy smokes..I have not been paying attention!
Zero goals is one thing, but I had no idea about this!

That contract is an albatross for that kind of production.

I actually like Vantel for the most part. There are many worse on those threads, at least back when Esplen ran the show. He has soooo many disciples.

He's taking a run at the worst bang for buck contract in the league. Total piece of shyt. Not to mention a dirt bag and embarrassment to the league.
