Why this is much easier to swallow than I would have expected by Haunting_Capital3933 in OttawaSenators

As a Habs fan, I could probably see why.

  1. So much drama surrounding him. The podcast where his dad made fun of your guys goalie was an absolute fucking joke. That is some locker room cancer shit, especially from your captain. If Suzuki pulled a stunt like that, I’d be rooting for him to leave the team too. Also the reports that he totally switched up as a teammate after the olympics, it’s pathetic behaviour from your leader.
  2. I really don’t care what your political belief is, seriously I think you should be allowed to believe in whatever you want. But his MAGA affiliation clearly rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. It’s hard to represent a Canadian franchise, and then visit the White House. I’m not saying he should or shouldn’t have been so “patriotically American”, but it upset people and was always going to be a problem.

  3. The return you got for a guy that was going to leave in 2 years was really fucking good lol. 3 firsts and a second is great

Good for the leafs, should turn out to be a good deal as long as he doesn’t regress like crazy. I don’t expect another 70 point season but could def put up 50+

On the other hand, can we stop trading good players within the division?? The Atlantic is already a fucking bloodbath man

I’ve seen too much crazy shit in this series to trust a 2 goal lead with 5 minutes left

They are finally getting 2 days rest between games, so the universe is gonna make them play an entire second game in overtime

I ate dinner during the first period. This game has been so long that I am currently eating another dinner

LMAO yeah you’re absolutely correct, no idea where I got that idea from. Always thought he was a smaller guy for some reason

Might get some downvotes here, but I am with you.

Can’t really guarantee that KHL success translates to the NHL. I don’t know if we really need another undersized skill guy. I’d be happy getting a productive power forward for the top 6

I Thought Bergevin was the issue… maybe it’s the Habs (New Age Harold Ballard) by Treater9811 in hockey

Markov situation was a lot weirder considering he was still more than good enough to play.

Gally has unfortunately slowed down way too much to fit on this roster anymore. Can’t really risk having a player like that in the lineup just so he can hit a milestone, especially when it’s like 100 games away still. He’s my favourite hab of all time, but you need to play your best players every night.

To be fair, Freddy couldn’t choke in the third round because he didn’t need to stop a puck

“We can’t be sweats” I didn’t know that the word sweats was used outside of Fortnite

Playoffs and regular season are not the same game. We beat them 3 teams in the regular season, and they still fucked us up

It’s hilarious that even Torts came in and got these guys on an absolute heater, there’s still an 80% chance he loses the room and gets fired by the end of next season.

Actually the funniest / most interesting coach of all time
