That top line... And Galchenyuk on the 4th line as a winger...

Nothing broken here folks, nothing to worry about!

Matt Duchene makes 6 million bucks a year, so what's the point in trading for him then since Backlund is probably going to be signed for less and we'll have him for a longer term.

Colorado won't do that deal anyways, Sakic needs a win on a trade for his best asset, this wouldn't be a win.

Andrew Walker @AndrewWalker650
Some interesting news: @FriedgeHNIC tells us Vegas has given Vadim Shipachyov permission to seek a trade. A few teams could use a Center

Insight from an agent, won't be surprised if Galchenyuk asks for a trade (if he hasn't done so already):

Dan Milstein-Hockey‏Verified account @HockeyAgent1
Alex Galchenyuk isn’t a problem but coach is. Has never successfully coached Russian. Took midseason most Russian club. All but one gone

Dan Milstein-Hockey‏Verified account @HockeyAgent1
More Dan Milstein-Hockey Retweeted ON3M4N SHOW
I happen to represent Khokhlachev. Please forgive me for being outspoken but say what other agents know but won’t publicly say.

Shipachyov for Brouwer and Galchenyuk for Stajan!

Either of those guys might be good adds for the Flames. I wonder how Galchenyuk would be on the right side of a Bennett-Janko line.

Habs were sniffing around Bennett last year (I think), would probably take him to get Galchenyuk.

I'd rather keep the two that don't have any known coaching issues.

Isn't Galchenyuk an American?

Damn does Galchenyuk need a change of scenery in the worst way.

I'd start dangling Bennett as trade bait at this point. If you can use him as the main piece to land Duchene, I think you need to take a hard look at that trade.

From Arpon Basu in the athletic...bergevin commenting on him. Also sounds like Mario Tremblay alleged he has been to detox on two separate occasions. Montreal is a viper pit between fans and press. EDIT: and GM and coach have some fangs too.

Montreal's media is incredibly toxic. Worst in the league by far

It's all a façade. Beyond his public persona he has no reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, of good or evil, right or wrong... purely and simply... EVIL.
