Keep Calm and Carey On

We posted this one originally last year in the playoff run for the Habs. Somehow in the transition and site building we actually lost this original post. It does however get Googled a lot apparently, and we’re the ones who thought of it (I see we pretty liberally, this was Scott’s idea if memory serves). Don’t believe me? Anywhere I’ve seen the photo you can still see the “9to5.cc” in the bottom corner. That’s the website you’re on right now (if you hadn’t noticed yet).

Anyhow, preseason starts tonight for the Habs (started last night for a few other teams). No matter what happens this season, for 82 regular games and the 16 wins we need to take him the cup for the 25th time we just need to:

We had a version of it with the Habs logo on it (like the one Johnny Le Canuck posted here) but we took it down so as not to tread on any copyrights.

Montreal Canadiens Cap Situation Next Year (2011)

Slow day at work, looking at the Habs cap situation to pass the time. Last season, the cap went up by about 2 million dollars, Phoenix Coyotes notwithstanding, I think the league did just as well this year as last, so I’m going to pretend there will be another 2 million dollar bump, making next years cap (potentially) 61.4 million dollars.

Habs have 6 forwards, 2 D and 1 Goaltender under contract next year for 33.995 million, which leaves us with 27.4 million dollars to sign a new team. Players under contact next year are:

  • Gomez, Cammy, Pleks, Gio, Moen and Eller for the forwards.
  • Spacek and PK for D.
  • Price between the pipes.

A friend of mine has suggested that we “Wade Redden” Gomez next year, which could free up an additional 7.4 million dollars in cap space… the only way this would happen is if the Habs locked up a similarly paid player (maybe a Brad Richards?), so that money is probably spent either way (though possibly for a more competent forward). ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
