That’s a whole lot of words and not one of them explains how we could have afforded Danault & Dvorak. That’s an extra $5.5 million over what the habs already have this season, and you haven’t outlined any movement that didn’t already happen.
Do a Search "Habs OS on Hurricane's " and go back
Also if you saw the offer sheet coming a mile away, could you show me the post where you said that it was going to happen before hand? You’re just projecting what you know now on past events, pretending like you were much better at predicting things than you actually were.
Dont Qualify Lehkonen and offer him the same deal Paquette and Perrault got or the chance to walk(2.3m there)
Let Armia walk (3.4m there) or dont sign Mike Hoffman if you're upset about the idea of letting Armia walk
That's 5.7m
Replacing them as good as they are
Isnt nearly as Costly as replacing a Center like Danault
Since we offer sheeted Aho multiple media sources covered it
Not just me , even Stu Cowan covered the importance of locking those two up before OS
All ive done is point out that in the end MB made a choice
He prioritized bottom 6 wingers over a top 10 Center
He had the chance to have two Centers who are both Top 10 Ranked Faceoff Centers Respectively
IMO that's just a bad judgement call in a sad attempt to use them to curry favor for MB after getting new deals
Agreed , MTL would be a better team right now with Danault over Armia/Lehkonen ?
Replacing 4th line players shouldnt cost 5.7m for 2 players unless they're Martin-Czisikas-Clutterbuck level effective.
Below is one of many sources that can be found warning it was likely to happen if we let our young players become RFA's( i like to read so remembering sources is easy)
