Rumors of Hamilton to New Jersey gaining steam per Friedman
It’s perfect. No one gives a shit about the franchise and world class museums across the river.
Rumors of Hamilton to New Jersey gaining steam per Friedman
Like we reconvened in the SCF? You were so wrong its actually laughable.
They may miss, they may not. Of course if they don't miss you'll find some lame reason that allowed them to make it. Rinse repeat.
Wideman replaces GusIf the Habs sign Wideman,
Just be realistic how the heck we got in the playoffs
Get to the finals and ECF in the next few years in a normal year
Lets see who gets the last laugh
Wideman replaces Gus
Savard replaces Merrill
We need to find a decent Weber replacement (obviously not Weber level)
Eddy - Petry
Chiarot - XXX
Romanov - Savard
Kulak - Wideman
They got the heck in the playoffs because they finished 4th in a 7 team division. The logic that the Habs didn't deserve to be there is ridiculous, clearly they met the qualifying conditions of having more points than 3 other division teams. There is no way of accurately predicting whether they would have fared worse in a full schedule but based on the 56 game sample size we have, they make it. Comparing their record to other teams outside the division is also flawed simply because the division was isolated. Might as well rank them with teams in the KHL and Bob's Beer League too using this logic.
That’s not how the playoff format works - everyone knew the rules coming in: top-4 from each division end of story, they went on to win vs every team seeded above them in the playoffs, except the defending Cup champs.They got in when they were 24th
The narrative in the offseason changes completely
Nero gets fired , and we are sellers not buyers .

Be realistic about how they followed the same rules as everyone else. Got it.Just be realistic how the heck we got in the playoffs

He's was so wrong he's looking for caveats.That’s not how the playoff format works - everyone knew the rules coming in: top-4 from each division end of story, they went on to win vs every team seeded above them in the playoffs, except the defending Cup champs.
Those are the facts..
"till they suck"? They DO suck and they DID suck. All damn season long and the season before that and the season before that.Be realistic about how they followed the same rules as everyone else. Got it.
I know how they got there, I also know Bergevin really opened my eyes to a few things about the league this past season.
We got the last laugh. You can't push off being so wrong by saying "just wait till they suck, I'll be right!"
Cheap is my thinking. He may want to spend up front.I don't get the Wideman interest, he was a fringe defensemen back in his time in the NHL, what is so interesting about him now? Just because he had a good season in the KHL? I guess it's just a matter of building our defensemen depth chart, once again with defensemen we didn't draft.
