Brandon Smillie: Canadiens Clash In Calgary… Must Win? + I'll Be There!

No, plan was always to draft high. A hot start gave the team false hope. But if they keep trying to sneak in the playoffs they will be in the same spot they were last year in 4 years. The prospect pool is still really thin.

That said, Carey Price has had a bipolar season so far. Some nights he’s a world beater, as per the usual, and other nights he looks a bit like an average goalie.


That's the thing, too often he's giving the team "under-average" goaltending. He's either on top of his game, or basically at the bottom of the barrel, which gives us a bipolar rollercoaster of performances.

carry over : What did Ronnie do Fred, fuc** up is back with too much deadlifting?

Is this the habs thread now?

4-3 Habs.

Carey will be just fine but it will be enough!

looking at that ranking, so McCarron is really just a few months away from being Tinordi #2

If Price was putting up his career average numbers then he is a non issue and instead we would likely see folks griping that he is the entire team and other ways to spite the Montreal Canadiens hockey team and their fanbase.

I think it's still a fair question whether it's wise to pay $10.5m for a .918 sv %

that's the thing too, I'm confused...kinda want to continue seeing fun high paced game, but would also be nice to have another high draft pick...

Always kinda hard to watch and wish they suck...
