Who the fuck is the numb nut on Sportsnet who jinxed it. Mentioned that Markstrom looks like he's going to steal a point from the Wild. 2 seconds later, the Wild score.

Almost as bad as saying shutout.

The schedule looks a bit quirky for this week. The team has five days off on the road.

Their next two games are back to back this weekend against Edmonton and Winnipeg to end the 7 game road trip.

-more time for the coach to schedule practices during this road trip.

Sat, Jan 20

@ 7:00 PM PT
@ EDM
CBC, SN


Sun, Jan 21

@ 5:00 PM PT
@ WPG

Pretty good read. It's nice to see Snow doing something after that Moulson crap they went through.

But Snow then revisited the Chiarelli vending machine this offseason, parting with another former top pick who had failed to live up to expectations in Ryan Strome to return Jordan Eberle, a five-time 20-goal scorer.



At this point Brock needs 40 goals to win the Calder.

Local boy Barzal or local player Boeser, either outcome would be welcomed in Vancouver

I actually only care about the local player. Just being honest... lol
I don't know Barzal personally and he's not playing for my favourite team.

Dreger of TSN said an NHL executive told him that Tavares may be offered a gigantic contract if he chooses to become a free agent.

7 year deal, 15 million per season.

https://www.tsn.ca/countdown-to-trad...m-aav-1.972736


In The Race

TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger believes pending free agent John Tavares will not hit the open market in July 1, but noted he could break the bank if he does.

Dreger said Thursday the Montreal Canadiens should be among the teams chasing Tavares if he hits free agency and the team has the cap space to make a massive offer.

“You have no choice. It’s a pipe dream, I agree with you," Dreger told TSN's James Duthie on Thursday. "I’m still in the camp that believes that John Tavares and the New York Islanders are going to find that middle ground and he’ll stay and finish his career quite possibly with the New York Islanders. But in Tavares you have to be all-in if you’re the Montreal Canadiens. You’re so desperate up the middle of the ice.

“I had an NHL executive tell me earlier this week that he believes that someone, if Tavares goes to market, is going to offer a seven-year term and $15 million per. Seven times 15.

Well if you’re the Montreal Canadiens with $9 million in cap space right now and that’s going to grow in the off-season. If he hits the market, you need to be one of those teams ready to pony up that kind of dough.”

^
$10.5 million for Price, plus another $12 million for Tavares?
Doesn't leave much room for anyone else, especially when you're paying for a Weber cap hit of $8 million, and Drouin and Petrie making $5.5 each. That's $41 million for 5 players, and each roster has 22.

Plekanec and Hemsky are both free agents at the end of the season, so where are the Habs going to get their money from?

Tavares has the power, but I honestly think that he is going to stick with the Isles. They would be fools to let him walk.

Usually the teams with the cap space aren't contenders. Big UFA's aren't looking to sign long term there. The habs are a dumpster fire right now with no clear direction.

Canucks fans are like told, "Be patient, rebuild, blow up the team, it'll all come together one day......" Pretty hard to swallow any of that shit when a first year team is like a few points back of first place overall in the NHL.

FUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!


Las Vegas, goddamnit. Viva Las Vegas, Presley knew it.

Spoiler!
