Oh great. it was funny when other folks liked and cheered for Semin. Not so funny now.

Who knows, maybe you like Semin and you just don't know it yet.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Now PK has somebody on the team to fight for him at least.

Maybe. I just hope Semin doesn't rub off on some of the younger Habs players.

Hockey is a religion in Montreal - If this signing works out, maybe they'll rename the Bell Centre the 'Seminary'

The team felt they needed to replace Prust.

I can sympathize with you Comeds. Last year, I blasted and belittled Clarkson every chance I got. See how that worked out for me...

The team felt they needed to replace Prust.

And they did. With a guy who is completely, absolutely and totally not like him in any way.

NO LOYALTY!

He made a deal with the Devil(s)

 

[Cobiemonster]

Five years $30.1 million

 

[Nasty_Magician]

$6 million per is much more reasonable than $8+.

 

[Comeds]

That's a good deal.

 

[BGDave]

Agreed. But if Braden spits the bit, this may be one the Caps want to do over. Not saying he will, but his save % the last 3 years is not that much better than Bernier [.920/.915/.923 versus .922/.922/.912].

I would have liked to see the Caps sign him for this kind of money for a shorter term, and build in lots of bonus incentives.

And the one that did was holding the tire pump for TT

I guess that would be the second one.

Wardo was the Conn Smythe wasn't he?
