Habs have made a big offer to PK. 7.5 per for 7 years. May be enough to get it done. Will PK accept before his hearing tomorrow?

Strong rumours this summer about the Leaves trying to trade all of these guys but not unless they get full value.
Not gonna happen.
On one hand they'll begrudgingly hang onto malcontents, but on the other hand they prefer Kessel Klubbers.
Makes me even more grateful that Aquilini triggered a full regime change so that the shit could be cleaned out properly - had the leaves done that after Burke they'd be in a much better position, instead of sitting with a shittier, more useless version of Burke.
Cleaning house isn't easy, and Nonis has never demonstrated the stones to do make a big move. I don't see that changing.
I wonder if tweets can, uhh, be used to argue PK's case:Strangelove wrote:Those are just the numbers given to the arbitrator (on a one-year contract).Mëds wrote:PK Subban and the Habs not even in the same ballpark.
Subban is asking $8.5M. Canadiens are offering $5.25M and a one-year deal.
Just part of the negotiation process.
Everyone knows Subban will get 8 X $8m to $9m.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh, I think PK Subban would be in the mix for the top 10 list of best players in the NHL. He's a franchise type player both on the ice and off the ice.ClamRussel wrote:Not when they are, uhh, delusional.Betamax wrote:I wonder if tweets can, uhh, be used to argue PK's case:

To be honest, right now, if I was building a team, I'd even take him over Sidney Crosby, who is the best player in hockey when healthy. Why?
Because of Crosby's injury history and he's one bad play from calling it a career.
Now where he rates in terms of d-man, I think given age and ability and upside, only Doughty might be the player I'd take over him but I like Subban's personality better so ... I might just take him over Drew. LOL.
He's not even the best defenseman bro...Betamax wrote:Uhhhhhhhhhhhh, I think PK Subban would be in the mix for the top 10 list of best players in the NHL.

Maybe you can add some, uhhhhhh, thought to your post .... then the weak responses you have been providing here lately.

See what a UDL said above. I'd agree w/ that except for Chara who's on the downswing. Why don't you address his comment instead of your half-baked personal attack? You'll have to do better (declaring Subban as your #1 choice in the entire league + backing up that ludicrous tweet) to warrant a thoughtful response.Betamax wrote:Maybe you can add some, uhhhhhh, thought to your post .... then the weak responses you have been providing here lately.
