Montreal trades rights to goalie Jaroslav Halak to Blues

I can't believe Montreal actually WANTS Carey Price. This guy is going to be a pain in the Hawks ass. I have a feeling we're going to have flashbacks of Greg Millen in the 80's. He was ALWAYS a Hawk killer. They are solid in net now, and they have the most available cap space with just under $30mil before they resign Halak.

Didn't Millen

play for the Hawks for a year or two? I’m at work and two lazy to look it up. There were so many Hawks goalies in the couple of years preceding Belfour it’s hard to keep track. But everyone knows who my favorite is ;)

yup, another one of those, “if you can’t beat them, trade for them” scenarios.

They're

still a bunch of douchebags who will be in the sin bin 20 minutes a game…and Halak isn’t automatically a giant improvement over Mason. Their numbers were pretty similar. It might take 100 points to be the 8 seed in 2010-2011, can’t see them doing that.

Son, when you participate in sporting events, it's not whether you win or lose : it's how drunk you get.

Between “BEST GOALIE EVAAAARRRR” and “Just Two Games?”, I’m beginning to think of them more as newborn puppies than mean bitter bastards.

But when it was suggested to him that Toews v. Kane seems likely to become a sidebar to every future international hockey tournament, he smiled and said: "I'd like us to win something together, too." -- 2/28/10, so our Captain has said, and so it was done.
