Not trying to troll, but I would bet that Price exits his prime years never having been to the Cup final on the basis of the roster build as it is
- Nastradamus

You might be right.

Habs made it to the ECF twice with worst lineups...

We all know what Price can do when healthy. We'll know in 5-7 years from now when he's on the decline.

Max is 27. That's still young.
Galch is 22
Gally 24
Shaw 25
Beaulieu 23
McCarron 21
Sergachev 18

There might be one or 2 "decent" players out of Lehkonen, Andrighetto, Danault.

As for Weber being on the decline? That's just....

Habs window is still set for another 4-5 years.
- WaterBoy

Why?

Yes, but we're talking about the current canadien players.

Sergachev is great, but he hasn't even played a game and have you seen how long it takes some defensive prospects to get their poop together? Say it takes him 4 years for him to become a #1, which is optimistic. Weber has declined, Price is 4 years older, same for everyone else.
- RickJames77

Weber and Price won't be terrible players in 4 years from now.

Sergachev could make the team this season or the next one.

All that to say that the Habs aren't on the decline. They're not a power house neither but they will be up there.

But realistically, is Price really going to be able to stay healthy for 5 more years? Isn't he as injury prone as Lupul?

The guy is a generational talent, he deserves at least a cup final appearance

Why rush Sergachev? I don't understand

Like grumpy visitors. In an unrelated question, when's the next you'll be in town?
- Steven_Seagull

I could use some good luck.
I'll let you know.

Rangers fan?

- WingmanWillie

He's had like 2 injuries in his career.

And how many man games lost to said injuries?

And won us gold through one of them

You dont know that. No one knows that.
- Santo_44

I hate the habs too...but they've got some young talent adn I love Price and Weber.
With those two as your backbone and if they stay healthy......you'll have a chance for several years.

No, not at all.

Sergachev very likely will be the best dman selected last year. Was a really good pick for Montreal. Wouldn't be surprised to see him step in this season

You guys really suck, y'know that?

I post something to get some habs fans to react and sure enough the Leafs fan smartasses have to come in and kibosh the hell out of it

I hope not. That really screwed Kulikov who had a really similar career path.

Yes, even if I stayed we are looking for a support exec.

I also get a sick referral bonus if you get hired and stay on

PM me if you are serious. We are just off of the 403 on Burloak Drive. Dont know what kind of commute that is for you
- WingmanWillie

It's a little to far for me to commute. I'm trying to find some thing that's close to home (queen/ossington).

- Nastradamus

Because their window is closing.

Sabres fans think Kulikov is the poop!

Habs will be alright this year assuming Price is healthy and ready to go. Radulov if he can keep his head on straight will a good addition. Habs don't have the players down the middle to be a Cup contender I don't think though Galchenyuk could break out at anytime. Thierren is also an idiot

- WingmanWillie

Just like Pysyk. I wonder what happened to him...

Excellent number 3 defender. Would take him any day...until he gets massively overpaid like every UFA
