“@TBTimes_JSmith: Boyle's agent said there were other suitors but TBL best fit. Plus wife is from Tampa” TOR was finalist. Offered more.

They have a few good prospects coming up in Musil, Klefbom, Gernat and Nurse, but they're not NHL ready.

They'll promote a guy from within, whether it is DLR, Andrighetto or Sekac.

Bob Mackenzie seemed to think Sekac was able to jump in straight into the top9.
- Jean_Perron

Supposedly he was nominated for the KHL equivalent of the Selke.

Right now I don't think Montreal has done enough to remain one of the East's top teams. We lost 2 top 9 forwards and brought in one. It's not good enough and more has to be done. Like the Gorges-Gilbert swap.

I disagree. They've improved their depth and at worse the D is the same. Considering how dumb of a day this usualy is I think the habs had a very good day.

@TheFourthPeriod on @TSN690RadioMtl said #Canadiens are still involved in the #Vrbata sweepstakes. #Habs

D Boyle had Toronto as the finalists

Nice to see mb try to jam the leafs with gorges' contract to take them out of the running - presumption that the Habs wanted Boyle as per the talking heads

Count the Flyers among the winners in FA 2014

So the Leafs only wanted Boyle because the Habs did? The Habs contacted the Leafs with Gorges so they couldn't afford Boyle? Dafuq am I reading?

Did the flyers sign Cekac? No? Then they win NOTHING

Agreed. Looks like they will draft McDavid in 2015.

The losing started when they traded Harts.

Sorry.

yes.

Boyle had 5 teams he wanted to go to

Toronto Tb mtl nyr plus 1 more team

If the gorges deal would have happened it would have taken Toronto out for Dan Boyle narrowing his preferred teams to 4

Pretty much Ken.

The old "dangle and don't watch the other guy sign trick".

He will sign in MTL.

Can't see how that turns out well.

Also if they do who are they trading, they don't have the cap space.
