Alflives Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Maybe we trade Halak to the Habs? Except they don’t have anything of value we would want in return. Hey! What about that little cute feller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may never play another game for us or anyone this season. If these last bunch of games are his sample size resume, who the heck will sign a struggling 36, 37 year old, smallish, goaltender who is playing like crap. His career may well be on the line here. If you want to make unfounded assumptions I’ll play. What if he’s decided he’s going to retire in the offseason and doesn’t want to deal with the hassles of being traded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I say maybe it means its a possibility, like the one you just mentioned. It's an opinion, an idea, concept. When I say maybe it means it's a possibility among other possibilities. Is what I suggested impossible? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just saying at the moment there’s nothing to support that scenario There is, he is really struggling. It's like if a colleague is struggling at work. They may be struggling because they don't like where they work. It happens, it may or not be happening here. It may be age catching up to him, maybe he doesn't mesh with coach Clark. Many possibilities for sure. Honestly, I don't see a scenario where he plays another game for the Canucks. They can't risk it if they are gunning for the playoffs.

May be best for him to move on and show he still has it. nah he has the pedigree and history to get another 1mil contract with incentives.. no harm for teams low cost and if he doesn't pan out he won't hit his incentives.

Your probably right. Halak did have a good year last year. He has to play better though, continuing to struggle like this, my guess would be he's done.

The players absolutely share the blame for Halak’s play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal's also a capped out team, why would they take Halak during a losing season and eat his bonus next season? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but it just dawned on me, Habs may want Halak so they land lower in the standings and draft higher. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
