@DRCanadiens Because he’s a PP guy and requires a strong center to drive his 5v5 play. And his contract. Hes not the player to extend 8+ mill of cap on for Habs.
@HFTVSports Honestly it may be a situation where no move may need be okay. Re-roll at deadline or next year. Its frustrating but I’m not sure any of the players moved today for their AAV + the assets required were worth it.
Leaves us nimble for moves in the future w/ better fits available
@mndamico All those concerns are valid. And because they exist, even if retained, if a Hage/Zharovsky/Reinbacher goes other way, its a massive gamble. Hes a reluctant shooter, not a good for for 93 in that sense. Not on board with this, pending cost and AAV. Another project
@HFTVSports I wish you will be right, but this sounds like a bunch of hopium. Invisible 95% of the series. You get the fame you get the dollars you also get the pressure to shoulderthe burden to perform. They haven’t showed up and that’s the reason this is it game seven on the road.
WE DONT UPLOAD OFTEN, BUT WHEN WE DO YOU CANNOT MISS IT! HABS 2025-2026 PLAYOFF PUMP UP IS LIVE, CHECK IT OUT AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!!! #gohabsgo

@EricMacramalla Thomas is worth more in value than Hage, but cap management also matters and if you believe in Hage, you want those ELC years to spread the $ out. Very tough.
