why do the finals take so long to start?

The NHL drags this thing on for way too long

Montreal has some nice pieces moving forward.

I was really impressed with Tinordi and Nathan Beaulieu has some really good offensive upside.

Price, Subban, Max Pac, Tinordi, Beaulieu and #3 overall pick is a nice young core to build around.

Nothing out of that makes me nervous or jealous.

Pretty average and inexperienced other than Dudley.

There's a reason why Hartley was out of service for that long, and isn't because he was refusing offers. The guy had to go to Europe to coach.

The grass isn't greener this time around.

Only thing I remember of bob hartley is how he loved his enforcers. When thrashers started losing he would totally goon it up, not much to be envious of in terms of coaching material

Yeah, I'll never understand the big gap between conference finals and the finals, they leave it long enough (sometimes a week+) that fans lose any interest they had (aside from fans of the 2 teams obv.).

Habs are doing a good job with their front office.

Disagree. That's a pretty good management team coming together. Obviously not on par with Toronto in terms of impressiveness, but a good team nonetheless. You don't need to be a Habs fan to see that.

I am still jealous of Tinordi, after watching the Memorial cup, I want him and don't want to face him.

the devils and the pick?


So when kovie signed his massive contract NJD got fined 3 million and had to give up one first round pick in 2011-2014 depending on there choice. When do they get to choice. If they win the cup can they choose now?

If they lose the Cup they can choose this year!

It's almost a guarantee they will forfeit it this year. It'll be 29th or 30th, so it makes sense (unless their current plan is to develop picks this year with the impending loss of Parise and Brodeur).

Most likely we will move up to 34th in the draft.

He was also a coach on a reality TV show in Quebec where beer ligue hockey player from Quebec city faced beer ligue player from Montreal.

here he is in an argument with the other coach Patrice Brisebois

Doing that show made Hartley lost alot of credibility...

Uh, I guess?

The names are familiar, that's about it.

Until they show otherwise, pretty average front office to me.

Quote:

While many assumed Hartley would be named the new bench boss of the Montreal Canadiens in the coming days, RDS hockey analyst Vincent Damphousse said Hartley had a second interview with Flames management.

Hartley has worked with Flames GM Jay Feaster before, a connection that dates back to their days with the American Hockey League?s Hershey Bears, where they won the Calder Cup championship together in 1997.

Feaster likes his connections.

I still think Bealieu will be better but the Habs have done well for themselves with Tinordi and Bealieu. Schultz, should he choose to sign here, should help even the playing field a bit.

Oh without a doubt but if all goes well ideally, Tinordi can beat him IMO.
Gauthier and Gainey has helped their prospect pool quite a bit in the defensive and net place. Their forwards need help though, but the habs are doing a good job in the front ofice.
