There was apparently 10 or so media members from Montreal at the Preds game last night. Must be because PK invited them so he can media attention whore all night.
You're not allowed to think for yourself, apparently. If there was a legitimate reason to believe a word out of Bergeron's mouth (or any of the racist media members who parrot all his bullshit) then maybe people wouldn't think you're so fucking stupid.
But there is no reason to believe a word of it, both because your GM is utterly useless and because everything said about PK Subban flies directly in the face of reality. Who in their right mind could think a guy who donated TEN MILLION DOLLARS to a CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL did it for the publicity? Where should I put my faith, in the guy who made a $10M donation to a children's hospital? Or in the GM who will say or do anything to save his own job, including trading away a Norris-winning defenseman because of an alleged CHARACTER ISSUE? The GM who lied straight to the face to the player in question about not trading him before his no-trade clause kicked in? The GM who signed a 30-year old goalie to a 10M/8year contract and then finished fourth last in the league and traded for noted homophobe Andrew Shaw? The guy who traded for John Scott for the sole purpose of fucking him over because the league wanted him to? You tell me who has the character issue here.
You're either a racist bigot, or just spectacularly stupid. Let us all know which one and then shut the hell up.
Don't know where to ask this, since i follow the NHL thread the most. Anyone have a good repo source for NHL game AND movies. Finally decided to install Kodi onto my PC.
You probably dont follow Habs media so much, but after he was traded, there was this massive witch hunt to justify Bergevin's actions. AFTER the trade, they were trying to attack PK by saying he "was constantly late from / missing practice", yet there was not a peep about him being late / missing practice while he was a Hab. The Habs get better media coverage for their practices than small/mid market teams get for their actual games, and not once was there a peep about PK missing practice ever. But all of a sudden, "PK misses practice or is late all the time". Bullshit. There was also stories about how PK would be a complete dick to people unless there were cameras around.
As far as Price's contract, its really not the end of the world. Goalies can maintain their prime with minimal deviance well into their late 30's. At age 37, Brodeur posted a .916 (10th among goalies who started 50+ games) / 2.24 (2nd), started in 76 games (probably too much, lets be honest), and was 3rd for the Vezina. And before you say "But Price isnt Brodeur"...yeah, he isnt Brodeur, but "Price sucked in 2018" isnt really a viable argument against Price being an elite goaltender who can provide solid goaltending until his late 30's.
That's gotta be the first time I've seen a guy get high sticked by his own stick and cut. Tough break for Boston but at least they killed it off.
Overall bad night for refs. Krug got a slashing penalty for tapping a guy on his knee, amongst other things.
Jesus, only took 27 shots to get one through Fleury.
Marchessault aka the guy Florida let walk away for nothing.
