Thread: Move to the wing
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsFan33</b></div><div>I'm not very good at math but looking at the official stats on NHL.com, Monahan has 4 goals/16 assists and Savard has 4 goals/11 assists for a combined 8 goals and 27 pts 5v5. That's a little more than 19 pts combined.

I get that you don't like Montreal and/or Monahan or Savard but when using stats has the only deciding factor about the value of a player, you could at the very least use the correct stats.</div></div>

The game against the Bruins wasn't pretty, but Monahan's 3 points was one of the only positives.

I am not making the argument that Monahan is "as good" as Lindholm, but I find it funny how people on this site say Monahan is crap (while trying to trade for him) and Lindholm is easily worth the usual Center packages we see at the TDL.

Monahan has more goals and points per game than Lindholm at this point... He can be had for a fraction of the cost. I just don't get the hate.

Thread: First Game Lineup Predictions
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacko</b></div><div>Probably close to what it will look like which means it’s looks like another long year.
Farrell would benefit playing in Laval judging by how he looked last year and I don’t think anyone will trade for Armia or Hoffman even with retention unless Habs add draft picks which is unlikely imo</div></div>

I don't think its a long year at all!

The expectations are on the floor and as long as most of the team stays healthy, it'll be fun to see the bright spots of each developing asset on the team. Let them develop some chem, see what it takes to be a dominant NHLer, and take time building a real contender. Most Habs fans who've been paying close attention for the last 20 years, should be sick of the lack of urgency to improve the team - and riding a hot goalie or stars, without a true identity in the league. This coming era for Habs hockey will be scary - enjoy the lack of pressure for now!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KMMHL2012</b></div><div>Clearly math isn't your strong suit, or critical thinking, as you should've have ran the simulation rather than running your mouth. lol

Go make the team with the retained salary, Pezetta and Schueneman to the minors, would yield a cap hit of $82,489,166..... yes, it's below the cap.

Keeping only Price on LTIR.

So, to reiterate, Habs will have the cap space.</div></div>

ugh.... I forgot how obnoxious 99% of the internet is.

I literally did a mock ACGM, and doing this deal, dumping Lavoie, Schueneman, and the Pez in the minors... only rolling at 21 man roster... gives the Habs just below $11k in "cap space"....

If you live in reality, Hughes won't risk not having enough cap space to do call ups to cover injuries (and there will be more than just one at a time during the season). so Habs will be rolling more than a 21 man roster..... hence..

They won't have the cap, and they most certainly won't put themselves in a $11k cap for freakin Tyson Barrie... not to mention taking on an additional year of his contract as opposed to Drouin being UFA at the end of this year.
