digitalmonkey 929 Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 fair point on VL.The thing is, what are you gonna do with Price? Are you just gonna keep holding onto him, and hope he increases his value backing up Halak? Wont that mess with Halak's head, always having Price looking over his shoulder, and the constant who is the #1 popping up every time Halak has a bad game or two. I just think its gonna be hard for the Habs to wait on Price's value to go up, without hurting their current roster. This summer might be the ideal time to decide Halak is your guy, and make that clear to all.I think there are a handful of teams that should make every effort to get Price. Just not sure what the Habs' price is.If I'm GM I try to sign Halak for 4 years for a fair price to both. I have no idea what the Halak camp will be looking for but $4 million per is a number in my head. I also try to sign Price for two years at a much lower contract. Price is still young and if he can prove himself in those two years then he has a chance to earn a big contract just like Halak did. I don't think having Price as a backup will hurt Halak at all. I think he needs a rest every so often. I think giving him that rest against the Caps was enough to get him back on track. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 If the Habs are only offering Price a small short term deal, he should be a prime target for an RFA offer. =========Little late, but good luck on the series. Link to post Share on other sites

As much as i like him, the guy has been creating as many turnovers as scoring chances. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I've been waiting in line for tickets for like 4.5 hours for the Habs/Pens game 3, 4, 6... obviously all the cheap tickets have sold out first.If it ever gets to me, do you think it's worth it to grab two tickets with the assumption that at the very least I can get my money back on eBay or whatever?Like, Prestige seats for $314 each, or Club Desjardins for $339...Could I at least breakeven if I buy and then sell them?

Zach6668 513 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 eh, 3 and 4 just sold out.I fudged up and missed getting in the room early enough to be put into the random queue. I think I automatically went to the end when I joined a few minutes late, so I didn't think I'd get any. :(Oh well. Link to post Share on other sites

Nashtak 0 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I can't believe someone get paid to write this stuffFacepalmed to 1, 4 and 5I like 4 especially; someone need to explain variance to pretty much everyone in the professional sport industry.

bdc30 0 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 is it just me or is this an insanely frustrating team to be a fan of? They got outshot 18-3 in the 2nd period, open the third by taking 3 stupid penalties in the first 10 minutes, yet still find a way to win?! If they keep this up I'll have no hair left by the end of the playoffs... Link to post Share on other sites

If they keep this up I'll have no hair left by the end of the playoffs...this post seems like you are calling yourself a frustrated habs fans, but you're just a frustrated habs hater. A fan saw the Habs figure out a way to contain the top 2 lines, capitalize on their chances, execute a PK, saw Cammalleri take the goal scoring lead in the playoffs, and saw Fleury make 18 saves on 21 shots and Halak make 38 saves on 39 shots to hold onto a lead and split games in Pittsburgh. It wasn't the prettiest way to win but the results are there, so its actually a great time to be a Habs fan. Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't think they'd win a single game off the Caps and look at them now...There's nothing I'd like more than to see MTL/BOS in the eastern finals.Just drives me nuts seeing the way they play at times Link to post Share on other sites

I understand that sometimes the other team is really pushing but sending one man in deep as soon as you get the lead can be a little frustrating at times, especially when it doesn't work. Thankfully, they seem to have gotten away from that in the playoffs. Link to post Share on other sites
