Oilers fans want to trade RNH for him. You would do that trade? I wouldn't.

He 's a 30+ goals scorer, year after year. You don't give him away.

you take the best offer. I highly doubt RNH will be the best offer.

I dont trust Bergevin to make that trade either. He did this mess. He needs to go before he does more damage.

I'm ok with a trade but it needs to be part of a plan. This team needs a rebuild.

CHI could be interested, there's a link.
CGY, STL, NASH, MINN, NYI, NYR, PIT, NJ, CAR... could all be interested.

The master plan is to sing Tavares to 10.5 mil/year.
If he does this, he will be praised as the best GM ever..

I'm sure a lot of teams would have interest. But like Symba said, maybe wait before he gets hot a little before making a deal.

meh I don't believe so.
GM around the league know Patch, they know he usually has slow starts but always ends up scoring 35 goals. his value won't get higher because he scores a few goals in a hot streak.
mainly, his value decreases every day as we approach the end of his contract.

Price is looking a bit stiff there

seems to me he's as bad as usual though, net is full of pucks.

Well it's pretty obvious he's pissed off, you can see right through him.

Don't think they have the money to sign Tavares unless they move one of Petry/Alzner

Danault (912K) will get a small raise also in 2018. Pacs and Byron are UFA in 2019

in 2018, Plek's deal will expire...that's 7M, same with Mitchell and Hemsky.


When a team decides to throw money at his goalie, it will obviously take money away for the forward and/or defense, MB will have to figure this out.

staying back with big holes, yeah...that's the new Price

trade the (frank)er asap

or do we wait he makes a few saves?

he will rebound, those are not normal numbers for him.

Habs will be patient, they are in a position of weakness, bad time to trade anybody, they will be patient and wait until late November to make any trades IMO and it won't be one of Price, Weber, Drouin or Pacs.

I'd trade both Price and Patch asap. and Plek, and Shaw, and Galchenyuk.
then I'd have a beer.
then I'd trade the others. I'd keep Drouin, Lekhonen, Danault. that's about it.

MB refused to meet with the media today.....the pressure is on, the MTL media circus will only get worse everyday.

Once they lose the next 3 games....it's all out war between the media and the team.

you can easily take a bad contract back, that only increases the return.

Meet for what though? To ask him what he thinks of the performance so far?

Every question EE can possibly ask, we already know the answer or at least how he would answer them..
