everyone keeps talking about getting a big center, well maybe we should go after Bobby Holik, he is 6-3 and 235 lbs. Haha I know this is random, but I'm just making conversation

According to TSN, Devils accept the $5 mil arbitration ruling and sign Gomez to a one year extension. So they are definitely over the cap with 3 others to sign.

Hey guys, what do you think, what's gonna be the result of the season opener tomorrow? I'm optimistic and believe the Habs will beat those drunk bears .... my guess: Habs 3 @ Bruins 1

In this off season Gainey probably did not make all the moves that everyone would have wanted: no signings of a quality dman, no upgrade at center, but this team looks alot better than one year ago. Last year at this time the Habs first line was Zednik Koviu Kovalev. the second line was Dagenais Riberio R...

From TSN.ca: Canadian Press 7/25/2006 4:43:31 PM SUNRISE, Fla. (CP) - Ed Belfour has signed a one-year contract with the Florida Panthers. The 41-year-old goaltender became a free agent this summer when the Toronto Maple Leafs chose not to pick up an option on his contract. Belfour has b...

That we offered Perezhogin, Markov and a first round pick to San jose for Patrick Marleau...... I almost crashed when i heard such a heart wrenching news..... If gainey pulls this off, its a big no-no -- Edited by Saku11 at 21:58, 2006-07-25

Reported by TSN, an arbitrator awarded him the 5 mil which is one mil more than the Devils offer but 2 mil less than what Gomez wanted.

So in the Gazette today it has an article about Gainey's signing. He then went on to address the Briere rumor, saying he was not in the running. I turned to my friend and said "Just like when he said he wasn't in the running for Alex Kovalev." Which got me to think, would I believe something Gainey were to sa...

GOMEZ, RYDER SWAP? ST. JOHN'S EVENING TELEGRAM: Robin Short reported over the weekend on the possibility of the Montreal Canadiens swapping Newfoundland native Michael Ryder for New Jersey Devils center Scott Gomez.

And-o can't help but think that the entire lock-out...and waste of a complete season...was an entire waste! The owner's efforts to cut costs were misdirected! Instead of insisting on a cap...perhaps they should have insisted on replacing arbitration with a system that doesn't award con...

Does anyone know what the status of Owen Nolan is for next year. I wouldn't mind to see him in a Hab Jersey, I think someone said it on this board that he would be a cost effective pick up, since I don't imagine him having much negotiating leverage based on his recent injury trouble and that he...

From TSN.ca: MONTREAL – The Montreal Canadiens have signed general manager Bob Gainey to a contract extension through the 2009-2010 season. "We are very happy that Bob Gainey has extended his association with the Montreal Canadiens leading to the franchise's Centennial Year in 2009-10," sa...

After the Ryder signing, we now have 22 players under NHL contracts. Now this does not include guys like Danis who are on 2 way contracts and will not count against the cap because they will be in Hamilton. Sooo... 22 Players- $41.548 Million So Gainey is either in a position to stand pat and s...

Alot of talk about our forwards and the concern of depth down the middle but how about our D? I personally think Gainey still needs to shore up our D somehow to fit into the new NHL concept. Rivet, Komi and Souray are solid with the opposing player coming in wide or slow but if that player co...

Apparently, Bob Gainey and Michael Ryder have had a history of clashing that dates back to Gainey's arrival in Montreal as GM. 1. This seemed to all begin with the little mid-season "talk" Gainey had with Ryder way back in '03-'04 (Ryder's break-in year) regarding consistency issues. 2....

Bulis signed with Vancouver for 1.3 and Recchi signed with Pittsburgh for 2.28. I am surprised that Bulis got so little and even more surprised that Recchi is playing with Crosby again after their publicized battling last year. Habtastic
