what the (frank) was that about?

The Leafs thread went batpoop crazy last week.... I can't even tell if this was true or not.

The Quebec thing was pretty obvious for a while now.

Once Benning ran on with his mouth about the PK thing...It was pretty much a done deal. Hard to go back on that.

Everyone was reporting Lucic to Edmonton was done days before the bell. (which is complete bullpoop as they weren't supposed to discuss numbers).

He's been wrong before, said habs were gonna pick up Simmonds before Christmas last year.

he'll be well received, as he should. whatever the issues he had with teammates he was (frank)ing awesome in the community. im interested to see what kind of reception Therrien and Bergevin get when they do the opening ceremony here. that could be fun.

When Nashville comes to play here, Habs marketing department will hold a ceremony, Francis Bouillon appreciation night, just to make a diversion.

Plekanec, while on the decline, is a fine 2nd line center.

He always managed to produce decent numbers while being very effective defensively when paired with decent players.

he will be honoured as the best black man to ever play for the Habs

- Bruiniak

up until middle of last season he averaged about 60 points/year. thats solid second line production.

What the hell are you talking about.

It's Donald Brashear.

By far.

If any of that is true, and if they sign him, to make sense it would mean Plekanec is out of here.

Or DD and Emelin are gone and Plek accept 3rd line duties...don't see it happening but hey stranger things happened with the habs lately so.

what a spectacular bust he was

- DoubleDown

60 pts per year is solid production? That's while he was Montreal's top centerman. On most teams in the league, he would be a third line center at best.

Played for Kinston canadiens in the OHL

Thing is being Montreal's 2nd center means you're playing with absolute garbage, at least thats how it was last year.

But hey, you're entitled to your opinion, no matter how dumb it sounds.

Reway will stay in North America and play in the AHL if (when) demoted.

No need for insults.

Bruins have Krejci, Bergeron and Backes as their three top centers. Both Krejci/ Backes are ideal 2nd line centers as they bring so much more to the table. I just don't see it with Plekanec.

I guess Patrice Bergeron sucks then.
- Euh_Michel

Bergeron is a top 10 centerman in the league. Saying otherwise is lunacy.

Just looking at highlights that Sergachev is a beast. Shea Weber will turn him into a superstar
