Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

Blues a few years ago as well
please tell me you are not falling for the view that making the playoffs is all that matters, it is better to lose forever, why try to get in when you won't life a silver trophy, you cannot succeed, just fail,

Wehave is my guru
 
And that’s why despite many fans & media types freaking out Holland hasn’t made a desperate trade for G…. he hasn’t budged from a position of no leverage

McDrai can pull them back into it and be in a better position to swing a deal closer to deadline
Why make a stupid deal that wont make a difference now

These meh goalies on the market wont help if their team D is atrocious

Blues won the cup, panthers lost in the finals.

50 percent success rate. Not bad.

That is the thing. Though the numbers are a few games old now they were giving up the 7th fewest high danger chances and 3rd fewest scoring chances.
 
I think only Habsy caught I was going Gad Saad sarcastic today. All I hear here is for us, it is terrible to get in just to lose but for other teams, it is a ok.

If McNumbnuts gets in, more power to him. You cannot win if you do not get in.
 
best way to have a life long career even if you do not succeed as a coach in the NHL is to get the first one, then you keep getting recycled until you no longer want to do it

Terrible for us because we don’t have the best player in the world, nor do we have another top 10 guy like Drai, or a an elite shutdown D like Ekholm.

Who’s our top player? Caufield. Prob not a top 50 guy.

TL;DR keep getting draft capital until we draft a legit star

they have them and haven't won shit either (and won't this year either)
 
Few teams aside from the Habs and Leafs can afford to take a "fuck the fans" approach to how they do business. Besides which, Edmonton is in their window now. They have no choice but to try and go for broke. The future is now when you have 97 and 29 in their primes.. But the Habs are 3 players away from being 3 players away. Trying to make the playoffs with this roster, in addition to being unnecessary for financial reasons, would only hurt our draft ranking. If the fans refuse to be patient then the front office has no choice but to say "Fuck 'em."
 
Wehave has convinced me the rich need to give their money to everyone else but themselves, after all, the workers take all the risk, not the owners,,,
They need to share their wealth, not hoard it. Why should we have to pay taxes to assist people with full time jobs who still have to use food banks because their corporate overlords won't pay them a living wage? Why are we subsidizing corporations in this way? Because that's exactly what it is, corporate welfare.

Walmart doesn't pay their workers peanuts because they're using the money to "take the risk". There is no risk. Walmart is a license to print money. They can afford to pay their workers, they just don't want to. They want us to make up the difference.

If the Habs had 97 and 29 I'd be advocating for us to push all our chips to the center of the table. But that's not the Habs. You don't go for broke trying to make the playoffs when your best player is Nick Suzuki.
