| i don't know about that move....i don't know if it's smart to let a young goalie like price be the #1 goalie heading into the playoffs... |

he has won at every level he has ever played at (price..Hamilton last year too) Huet is gone for nothing at the end of the year. Now they have room for more than just Hossa. Huet is not a number one goalie either. To win you have to pick one Goalie and make him play. The future is now, its the 100th anniversary of the habs next year. Go big or go home.;) Halak has been killing it in Hamilton.
No one thought Patrick Roy would win the cup in 86. |

| ok...we'll see what happens....hossa's not 100% yet is he??? who else you think they'll acquire? |
|

its not confirmed...but everyone on every channel thinks Hossa is going to Montreal and they have been right on all the other trades so far. My guess is maybe Jokinen. They can afford him, he is a Fin like Saku and has 2 years left on his contract. We have so much youth that we can actually get these players with non roster players and still not trade away the future like they do in Toronto. They could also get defence or a power forward. All i know is that this is the most exciting deadline for us in a long time.
Higgins and Ryder are the only roster players i see moving . |

crazy!!!
I think they just want to give Price some playoff experience this year and are actually not necessarilly aiming for the cup. Next year they will be, 100th anniversary, Kovalev's last year, etc!!
Still tho more trades to come for sure!
/me waiting for a Hossa trade announcement |

Montreal had to do it and Huet was expendable. Price has the demeanor to play well in the playoffs, he's not your typical 20 year old netminder, that's for sure.
The Hossa sweepstakes should be interesting as Ottawa's trying to get him to improve its team and to keep him away from Montreal :p
I see my Canucks lost out on getting Brad Richards, Sundin and Forsberg.. and Belak too, smirk. |

Kovalev will finish his career in Montreal ;)
if they get Hossa does he play against his old team tonight? I can't see that happening.

ya
i dont think Carey Price is ready today...but let him play 10 games in a row and all of a sudden that changes everything. If he gets in the groove he can do anything. |
