we all said the same thing about Condon after a few starts last year.

Id say Monty has a few more NHL miles than Condon, no?

It was pretty clear to me when it happened.

Martin too, if I recall.

Habs Talk: Canadiens and the evolving NHL, by Andrew Saadalla
Why the Canadiens are a great example of the evolving National Hockey League.
- Habs Talk

Not a bad blog... like it was actually decent.

i think the Galchenyuk line will score a ton, eventually. Plekanec line... i dunno. im starting to agree that maybe Desharnais might be a better fit there. and not because i think he's a good fit, more that Plekanec looks useless offensively.
- DoubleDown

nobody clicks with Plek, always been the case. He's a responsible center but he never clicks with offensive wingers.

I think Gallagher will go with Plek and Lehkonen, and we'll see Radulov Galchenyuk and Patch together

Allow me to add to that: the Habs also have a capable 1B goaltender- can we call him that yet?- who can also steal games when the time comes.
- Andrew Saadalla

Not a 1B

A good #2

Since I saw that video of PK in the room and the face of the other players, it was clear most found him very annoying.

Wouldn't mind moving Patches for Radulov.

But yeah, I agree with your switch

yeah they might have move Radulov up. the guy is a tank. needs to be on the top line. what i can see happening is Radulov with Galchenyuk, then if they want to spread the scoring (or try to), Pacioretty with Desharnais. until they get an upgrade at C might be the best option.

So now you guys want DD on the top 6 ?!?

Give me a (frank)in break!

DD is perfect where he is, on the 3rd. Leave him there. He can always move up in case of an injury.
Package Plek with some picks and prospects and go get a real center. (what they should have done 2 years ago btw)
And let DD go after this seaon, and Markov too.

problem is how many teams have a top6 C available? and do any of those teams want to make a hole that they will eventually need to fill?

True, not many teams can spare a center.
But some can (COL, WPG, PHX, TOR...)

Of course they'll have to make a package appealling enough to get that center, but that is not impossible. If they are serious about challenging for the cup in the next year or so, they really don't have a choice. Pay up!
