When the season starts, everyone not holding a ticket, should flock to their local pubs, restaurants, or anywhere there is a TV. Let's help out the establishments that lost the most during this debacle! Finally my two favorite things, whisky and hockey, can be together again !

No way the Habs let him go for anything below value. No way they think they can afford to lose their best Dman.
I lied, there is a way. They did trade for Gomez and Kaberle afterall. - Gunslinger
I understand. But, with such a small window there are teams that will pay a good price for the right player.
Couturier for Subban is a good hockey trade. If I am Montreal I do the deal. If I am the Flyers I am reluctant. But, the Flyers might not make the playoffs with their current D and shaky goaltending. The Flyers will do a big deal to add a D man.

Leafs out of the playoffs? Habs out of the lottery range? The Flames lost?

But, it will kill a lot of Flyer fans. They adore Couturier and his soft hands.

I would think so. So, what can the Flyers offer up for Subban?
Flyers will struggle to make playoffs if they do not add a puck moving Dman.
