    The Canadiens waste 84M on him, 7M for the 2nd year of Thornton’s contract, and 6M on Perron. Seems like a MB thing to do

    You know, when life hands you lemons.... This team wouldn't be so bad, especially if there's a top-5 pick coming in too. Haven't seen enough of the goalies, but as we've seen with Niemi, you just need to be solid to give the team a chance to win.

    I'm sensing I'm with you on Price. I think he might just be too damaged to play the game anymore. Something is clearly very wrong. It was a surprise to everyone how badly he played at the start of the season -- supposedly chronic fatigue. I suspect if he starts next year as badly, he might have to face the music.

    Not sure Habs would have to pay anything if he's injured.

    That’d b really annoying, though, having Price on LTIR for 8 years.

    The point was less about WHICH players as the fact that the Habs could rebuild their top lines and probably not suffer too much.

    What I love is hearing the fans on this board suck and blow. On the one hand, Price is horrible, terrible, washed up, ..... On the other, those same people say the Habs would be lost without him. I suspect the truth is nowhere near either of those.
