Does it involve someone's face or back? Because I doubt you're breaking new ground with those jokes.

Can Montreal keep up with their strong play? Or will they go soft the rest of the season?
After all, they have already purged the Semin...

They might just need some time to recover?

As much as I dislike the Canadiens, it was the right choice to put him on waivers. I just didn't like seeing Semin on the ice, and Semin was on the ice a lot in some games in late November. I know Semin was mostly in the other team's zone, but Semin is really sloppy once in the D zone, and Semin is just all over the place right now with really no purpose.
As for the Flames picking up Semin, I just don't see it. The room is working through some problems as is, and I just don't see adding Semin to the mix doing anything but causing more issues.

I thought it would take a doosh to remove Semin, apparently I am wrong.

You already know what'll happen when Semin comes into the picture. A big flop is pretty much inevitable.
And on the wrong side of 30, it seems like second chances become increasingly unlikely to work out, no matter how appealing the opportunity. And it seems like Semin is just a little more depleted every time.
Trying to force things to work in that situation is just awkward and slightly embarrassing.
I'm sure Habs fans are relieved to get Semin out of their system. They probably just want to take a nap and forget about it. If they aren't careful where Semin ends up, there's a always chance they might regret it. But that depends on the timing of when they cut him loose more than anything.
... and that's all I've got for an all-ages audience.
After that it's all AIDS, abortions, and bukkake.
Edited to add:
Maybe Montreal will trade him and retain some salary? Or include a pick? That way they can basically pay the Oilers to take Semin...

I thought you were going to say, "You need to beat that dead horse. Beat it mercilessly with your special beat stick until it beats death and it's head and gorgeous mane pops back up... Obviously, you're in all black leather and chains during this escapade."

Yeah, for sure, Marc Bergevin can take a relaxed nap now that Semin's out.

So are the Habs trying to stuff Semin down the throats of their AHL affiliate?
I really hope the NHL give consent for that so they don't get in trouble.

Alex Semin (MTL) is on unconditional waivers, likely for mutually agreed termination of contract. - from Bob McKenzie

I don't get it...
I don't think Bob is very good at this game.
