This was entirely predictable - Weber might not play next season

[lecoqsportif]

Only 26 GPs in 17-18. Foot, if I recall correctly.

 

[Rocket Man74]

I believe it is the same foot that is causing him issues now. Plus, there are also reported knee and wrist injuries

Seamus will be back in full beast mode game 1 of playoffs next April

Totally predictable, just like the last two years of the Price and Gallagher contracts (one of the reasons why I never got so bent about the Gally deal). I see a scenario where in 25-26, the team has the Weber, Price and Gally on LTIR for $24.85 million ($14.5 actual dollars).

Man I loved Weber and am totally sad about this. He is the closest thing we have ever had to the greatest defenseman in franchise history, Chris Chelios.

Not even close to top 10 in our history

I'm with Geeman. Weber is nowhere near the greatest defenseman in franchise history which, by the way, is NOT Chris Chelios. In no particular order...

Doug Harvey
Larry Robinson
Serge Savard
Guy Lapointe
Emile Bouchard
Tom Johnson
Jacques Laperriere
Rod Langway
Chris Chelios
Ken Reardon

There's 10 guys right there who are all Hall of Famers and Cup winners. Of the non-HOF crop we have guys like Svoboda, Schneider, Engblom, Green, Ludwig, Desjardins, Rivet, Souray, Markov and, of course, Subban.

Habs spin machine on full throttle mode...



Wonder who Re-No is “hearing” from?

 

[Habsy]

This is a ploy. It's part of the bigger plan. It's pretty transparent.

Apparently not because the Iraqi...errr Habs ministry of misinformation has Habs fandom convinced...

 

[Habsy]

Habs fans are idiots

The Okanagan is on fire right now. It's blocking out the sun here in Edmonton today. Smells like a campfire.

True, but it did not stop MB with Aho.....might as well go for broke!

The Aho offer sheet was so weak that the Canes' twitter account was trolling the Habs 5 minutes after the offer was tendered. Bergevin did it just to say he tried. He had no intention of the offer actually being accepted. It was a comically lowball offer.

Or he did the Canes owner a favor. No long contact negotiation with aho.

Well if that's true where's the gratitude?

That's not what I said (bolded part).

Never saw Harvey but he could have never done what Chelios did through the 80s, 90s, and 2000's in a 21 and 24 team league.

Robinson, Savard and Lapointe in their primes were all better than Chelios on his best day.

Yeah he could

I'm not sure if it was intentional, but he definitely did the Canes a favor. We all knew it would be matched.

 

[cmaleski2]

We will trade you Jake Gardiner for a 7th round pick and call it even.

 

[Rocket Man74]

Well if that's true where's the gratitude?

By trading Dougie Hamilton to us for exclusive negotiating rights?

Yeah, it is gross here right now....seems a lot like the summers of 2017 and 2018 when it seemed like there was a purple haze up and down the Valley
