Laval Rocket Thread

Except that this version of Laval is the youngest team In the league and is full of drafted players the last 4 drafts.

Primeau is not irrelevant. A championship under his belt only enhances his value. Since when are we in the business of throwing away assets? Goalie market this ugly this summer.
He has no value
 
Except that the Rocket also need to make money. They have fans, fans with kids who can't afford to pay for Habs tickets. You can't deliberately screw with them just because.

Besides, this isn't the final, just the second round. If the Rocket advance Fowler will get more opportunities to shine in games that matter.
What happened to the guy who wrote "fuck the fans"?

The Habs can get away with that. No other team in any sport in that market can.
Expos
Alouettes
Manic
Machine
Half a dozen junior hockey teams.

All of them died at least in part because fans stopped caring. But no one stops caring about the Habs, ever. The Habs can afford to take a "fuck the fans" attitude. But the Rocket? Nuh-uh. They have to grind (and they grind very well) but in that market it all boils down to winning.
 
Fowler is HuGo’s guy …point finale

That’s a dumb stance if in fact they made the decision. And who the fuck is Anthony Deaaulniers ? Never heard of this mofo.

Imagine a long playoff run where Mailloux puts up 20 points and wins the MVP. His value goes through the roof in any trade discussions. But no let’s throw that possibility away for a goalie who won’t be in the NHL next season.

I doubt that story is even true.
 
Hugo are bullish on Fowler no doubt but he’s not their only investment.
 
Someone is trying to protect Vincent’s rep and future NHL prospects (might be Vincent and his mouthpieces themselves).

It’s one thing to insert Kapanen over Simoneau but the goalie thing is a total screw up. He tried to big brain it and it backfired.

If the whole org is so invested in Fowler to the point that Sal says, then I fully expect Fowler in net today. Let’s see how bullish they are.
