Step away from the tinfoil hat

I'm curious. Why would the rangers even consider that?
-
Cue the 1000 or so pages of Kesler trade speculation over the next 6 months
-
The main issue is Burrows has always relied on the twins to inflate his stats. Now he has a contract to go with the stats he used to have but not the performance. There isnt anyone in their top 6 he's better than. He would be at best a third liner there, and he makes to much money for that. Maybe if the Canucks eat half his salary, but what are the odds of that?
-
I don't see why Montreal would make that deal. Emelin brings a dimention to their defence that no-one else does, and with the way Burrows has struggled this season he would be at best a third liner in Montreal. He's making to much money to be a third liner (they're already paying Brieire to much to play on the third line)
-
I doubt Montreal would have any interest. They already have an excellent 2-way center in Plekanec. He's not as physical but is thier best pk guy, is good in the dot and has a higher point-per-game average than Kesler. I'm not saying he's better than Kesler. But they fill the same role. I'm sure Montreal would rather have Plekanec, Galchenyuk (and his star potential) the cap space, and whatever other component to a potential trade. Than Plekanec and Kesler

IF Subban will only sign a 1 year contract THEN Montreal could look at trading him for a substantial return that will help the club immediately rather than drfat picks spread out over 3 or 4 years that may or may not pan out. The offer sheet route almost never works, Anything Vancouver could afford to pay him, Montreal could afford to pay him
-
Honestly that's a terrible package for Subban. Take Bourque and Booth out because they're essentially the same player. So Tanev (decent young defensive Dman with little to no offensive upside), Edler(offensive defenceman who has struggled mightily since back surgery, cant score and has close to the worst +/- in the league) and a 1st for a 25 year old Norris winning defenceman who is still getting better AND a 2nd? 28 other teams would be able to top that offer
-
I think the reports of Therrien and PK having issues are overblown. But even if they aren't, the coach will be gone before the 25 year old Norris winner. Especially if the only return is draft picks. PK is ahuge part of the young core Bergevin is building in Montreal, no way he goes anywhere
-
PK is a RFA. Even if PK signed an offer sheet with Vancouver at a reasonable price to play with his brothers you can be sure that Montreal would match instantly
-
Not even close to fair value for Gardiner

I honestly don't give a rats ass about your opinion. I was just pointing out the hypocrisy of saying putting Price in net guaranteed Canada a bronze then you back peddling and saying any goalie could have won them a gold when he not only helped win the gold but did it with a .59 goals against and a .985 save percentage over 5 games. But I'm sure any goalie could have done that
-
I'm not saying that Price carried the team on his back to the gold. But the fact if the matter is thAt despite being dominant the offence had trouble putting pucks in the opponents nets. A soft goal here and there could have made all the difference to Canada's run. Price remained calm, focused, and came up with some big saves every time the game hung in the balance (especially against Finland and the States). For some people to say that this team would have won with any goalie in net is disrespectful to what Price accomplished. Did he have to play lights out? No, but considering Canada only scored 3 goals against Finland and the States combined I'd say Price had to be near perfect in facing the shots he was tested on. And he was. He was part of a very strong team effort. To say any goalie could have made all the saves he made when it counted most is far from fact. It's baseless conjecture
-
I knew there would be certain people who are too petty to give Price any credit and I knew you would be one of them based on all your previous comments. You were mad that Luongo wasn't made the starter, you predicted a Canadian fail with Price in net. Now you're not man enough to admit you were wrong. Your "fact" is as misguided as your opinions about Price. But no amount of conversation is going to change your butthurt mind so carry on with your hate and delusion
-
This coming from the guy who said you may as well hand Canada the bronze if Price is in net. We get it. You love Luongo. Get over it
-
Actually. The Americans managed 31 shots on Price. They only needed to get 1 past him and it could have been a different outcome. He slammed the door shut. The defence was out if the world but Price came up huge when needed
-
I called it. I said if Canada didn't win gold CDC would blame Price. If they won gold the Luongo fanboys wouldn't give Price any credit

What the hell is wrong with you?
