HABS SHORE UP INJURY PRONE TEAM


Although Hab GM Bob Gainey was slow to jump into the free agent sweepstakes, he finally took the plunge and signed UFA forward Sergei Samsonov. Mike Johnson was also added to the team via trade. Both players should fit in well on the Canadians seeing neither can seem to play more than 2/3 of a season without injuring themselves.

The Habs had only two players play all 82 games last year, both defenseman. Can a forward play every game this upcoming season?? bet its not going to be either of the two new guys.

It's a sad state of affairs when the fans are qualifying every player on the roster with the phrase "if he can play 65 games this season..."

Roberto Luongo will help the Canucks make the playoffs. In six seasons he has a perfect playoff record having never lost a game.

I can't wait to see this guy perform come playoff time. 16-0 may be a bit much to ask in his first year in the post season, but I think 16-2 is right on target!

compared to the "scotts" and "Chris's" of the $6 million world

Oh I know I'm the intended target of this one LOL!

Guess it's Duck season now.

Fuck armour! We can't drag history into this now! All we Leaf/Canuck/Duck fans have is RIGHT NOW!!!

Hodge and Jin can get onto their Luongo wagons now, but there isn't much depth up front to support him.

RC, the Habs better have a lot of youth up and coming in the system, because the second Huet becomes a star, he'll want 6 million per season. Then Ribiero, Ryder, Markov, Perezhogin could have career years, get a hefty raise as well, and BOOM, your team gets dismantled because you can't afford them. Your 3 year window is a MAXIMUM. They need to win the Cup sooner!!
