1st line centre











In Laval.

Hey if he ends up having a good year there next season, I think it's a great sign.

I honestly have no idea how he will transit to pro.

We expect more from you

Most likely yes. It's for the best.

I wonder how Evans will fare this season.
- Scabeh

Drouin should be on the wing unless they want a new Galchenyuk.

Agreed, was going to what was listed in the blog thought

I see people still aren't over Anthony Duclair

To be honest, I'm having a hard time understanding how we can afford to take a chance on guys like Streit and Hemsky but not on a young player like Duclair.

I'm guessing he has a terrible reputation? Because Domi and Drouin sure looked like they liked him.

Well...that's 3 teams now that give up on him...there must be a reason.

3?

The Rangers traded him for Yandle... I'd hardly call that giving up on him.

How many 4th line wingers do the Habs need?

He would not take a 2-way contract, when offered. Good for him for getting a 1-way with CBJ.

Ok...2 then.

They probably felt they have enough bottom 6 players with one way deals already

No offers were made.

« C'était une fausse rumeur. D'après ce que mes agents m'ont dit, ils ont démontré de l'intérêt, mais n'ont jamais présenté d'offre, que ce soit un contrat à un volet ou à deux volets, donc c'est une fausse rumeur », a évoqué Duclair en conférence téléphonique, vendredi.

Meh, not the right leadership group to bring in a problem case. Every second chance they gave ended up in a tree or in rehab or a buyout.

Only Radulov payed off and it's because he was 6 years older and more mature than in Nashville.

No offers were made.

If his name was Tony Clear, nobody would give a crap.

- stinger67

Right, why sign the one that has a small chance of being more than a bottom 6 player when you can sign Peca?

I have a friend who knows someone who was at the Habs golf tournament that year. Apparently there was a lot of booze at Radulov's table during dinner

No offers were made.

They called his agent to ask him if he would consider a two-way deal, they said no. Before accepting the offer in Colombus, his agent called Bergevin to ask if they changed their mind. He did not get a call back. (per Mathias Brun-et)

So yes no offers were ever made.

Nashville has a ~24 million cap recapture penalty that will be divided equally by the number of years remaining on Weber's contract when he retires.

Peca is a centre at least.

Don't get why people are so pissed that the Habs didn't sign an 8th left winger...

You don't win with a team full of angels. P. Kane, Malkin, Ovechkin, Marchand, Doughty you think they don't get poopfaced on a regular basis?

- Scabeh

I have no idea what they see in him

...but I'm just not sold on Duclair.

...or at least the reasons why some people ABSOLUTELY wanted the Habs to sign him.
