What's so bad about that? We kill Hartnell for being limited and taking dumb inopurtune penalties. Now we make a trade to get more disaplined and versatile and now we hate it. Look at LA. They all skate and almost every player can due multiple things.

Oh cool. So they just traded for a pretzel? Happy now?

A guy who played 74 regular season games and 4 playoff games with those injuries isn't a pretzel, he's a warrior.

I'm sorry, I know that you all love the fact that we're going to be having salary cap savings in 3 years, but I hate this trade for a number of reasons and would prefer that we not just throw away 3 years to be better off in 4.
- jmatchett383


Maybe wait and see who the first line LW is before claiming the next three years have been thrown away.

Exactly. Not to mention, how hefty would the contract have to be for Montreal not to match.

um no...hartnell is a one dimensional player who is on the decline, as all players the play the type of game he plays at his age are. they got a guy who can and will make couts/raffle better than hartsy would have. it sounded like they asked him to change his game and he requested out.

Ok. Sorry. Thught it was the eye roll seriously i get from my wife.

I like the deal. I still think more will be done before training camp. I think you see a little of what Hextall and Berube want. Versatile, skating, smart players. Attention to detail type.
