Lars better turn out to be a good player. I think Schultz will be a decent 3rd liner at best imo.

as a Bruins fan, I love it. From a hockey standpoint, WTF ARE YOU THINKING MONTREAL?

That Halak was gonna ask for a ton of money and they don't want to give it to him, so they trade him for whatever they can get*

I'm from montreal and i'm <Censored>en unhappy right not so mad at gauthier ...
But from what i know is that Halak was about to ask lot of money and if we did that the probleme will have been with our center Plecky !
So what Gauthier did here is that he got rid of halak for Lars Ellers a 1st pick in the 2007 draft they compare him to Anze Kopitar i got no idea about lars now i wish that he makes a huge impact over here in MTL !
For schultz his a big man could fight too and he is captain of his farm team so must be good !

After thinking about all these i told my self that isnt that bad but still halak was our main man :S

We just gota see the youngs now

I heard that it was Perron and STL's 1st round pick.
NOOOOOO definitely not.

Nevermind:


eeew, I feel like the Canadiens could have and should have gotten more. Perron and a 1st is a great deal...this deal isn't though. I'd love to hear the organization justify this.
Perron and a 1st is worth WAY more than Halak...
WAY MORE.



Btw, I love this deal.

Eller is like... the next Milan Lucic... GREAT 2-way forward with a slight scoring ability that hits incredibly hard.

Schultz is a bum.

Blues > Habs on this one, easily.

I bet you are ;)

Which is probably why he is now a Blue. I would be astounded if we didnt already have something worked out with Jaro before dealing for him as a RFA.

So what Gauthier did here is that he got rid of halak for Lars Ellers a 1st pick in the 2007 draft they compare him to Anze Kopitar
Ive watched him play and hes far from kopitar... more like Lucic as I said in my last post

i got no idea about lars now i wish that he makes a huge impact over here in MTL !
Doubtful that it will be huge. he should blossom into a 3rd MAYBE 2nd line forward. but until playoff time, when grinders are much more effective, hes nothing. hes good in front of the net though. again, kind of like a Lucic. Now that I think of it he reminds me of Tkachuk is his golden years.

For schultz his a big man could fight too and he is captain of his farm team so must be good !
Its the Calgary Hitmen. Hes good but he wont be much more than a 4th liner at best.

Im pretty sure I just changed your mind.

And other thing all goalies that was good in montreal and left for others team never been great
Exple: Huet,Theo,Abeschier ,.... etc

So this could turn the same way to but i'm pretty sure that Halak is not going to turn like that but never know !
Anyway good luck to STL cause they finaly got a goalie !

Eller is not the next Lucic Zach, not even close. Lucic is 6'4" and 220, much bigger than Eller and also much stronger. Eller is versatile and can make plays in traffic but he's not the bruising powerforward Milan is.

He went from Lucic, to 3rd liner, to Tkachuk in his golden years in the span of 2 posts?

This kid must be special...... [/sarcasm]

You're making Eller out to be way more physical than he actually is. Lucic is a maniac and a fighter that has a dynamic scoring ability. Read any scouting report on Eller and "strength" is listed a major weakness.

You just got done ripping off Montreal on this deal. Please stop patronizing the rest of us and selling us on Lars Eller.

So mentioning that Eller is "like Lucic" 4 different times and then drawing a comparison to Tkachuk in his "golden years" is talking the guy down??

you guys didnt understand what i was trying to say...

he plays like lucic, reckless, physical, and like tkachuk in front of the net, defensively, and about half as much scoring ability.
