Much more than that - revenue streams grow with player intensity, rough play, and fights. Referees simply enable this for big games.
The owners *LOVE* revenue!

Bettman is just the fall guy. He is the front man and mouthpiece for Jeremy Jacobs and the rest of the fat-cats behind the scenes
(sorry to #habs Geoff Molson, but you are one of them!)

These NHL ‘dinosaurs’ are the league governors…
You know, the oligarchs who own the teams, the League, AND Bettman.

Way to revel in our combined misery Roger.
Dignified #habs fans are NOT celebrating a 32 year old drought for ANY Canadian team/fans.

This is quite sad for Canadians who care about NHL hockey - especially because this fact is driven directly by a combination of:
- Taxes
- Salaries / exchange rates
- Climate preferences
- Cost of Living / lifestyle

Truly a crap shoot.
But if #habs can, moving up by trading both 1st round picks (and a prospect?) could prove wise.
And, they have a glut of assets to use for this.

Not a bit bitter!
Just finding these comments that came up on my screen to be petty and unfair - but please, carry on.

Ok, but who cares? Oh, right… social media junkies.

I feel an urge to say ''c*nt'' rearding Leavitt, but that may still be a bit too generous for this Trump mouthpiece... so I'll just go with:
A... smug, holier-than-thou, priggish, puffed-up, self-contented, snobbish, stuck-up, stuffy, superior, vainglorious LACKEY.

Fortunately, the #habs player management & scouting staff are paid to know hockey, and hockey player recruiting. Let's give them some well-deserved trust!

No room for Alex Tuch with #habs, UNLESS players are moved on the right side (Anderson, Laine, Gallagher)

Ok, lets start a betting pool:

- Quarter Pounder w/ Cheese
- Extra crispy KFC drumstick

Nope! No reason for Vincent to doubt Primeau after his great AHL season, with Fowker a pro rookie.
That said, he was NOT great in his #habs games this season, and just as poor in the pressure-pcked AHL playoffs. Primeau will be offered to other teams for 25-26.

First home run that I saw at Fenway - Yaz right down the RF line!

J'ai été un fervent partisan de l'Impact pendant de nombreuses années, et maintenant, je n'ai plus envie de regarder ou d'assister à un autre match pathétique de #cfmtl.
Qui aurait cru que Saputo serait un autre Loria? Ils se transformeraient en une version moderne des #Expos !

p.s. Grabbing Alex Tuch for his last contract year could displace Newhook and a prospect, and provide size & offense.
comment in response to

Both Kapanan and Beck look very good in Laval, but doubtful either of them is up with #habs regularly in 2025-26.
From my imagination:
~~~~~~~~~~~
Caufield * Suzuki * Slafkovsky
Laine * (Horvat?) * Demidov
Newhook * Dach * Anderson
Heineman * Evans * Gallagher

Please ask Dan to come back to this city, and the #habs - greatly missed!

Curiously, this story flies in the face of the #habs management being on record of needing more size.
Even with the presence of MSL and his HOF credentials, Marco Rossi just doesn't measure up. Also, 11 minutes average in the playoffs? YUK

I doubt as a career center that Dach's C experience is 'over' with the Habs.
It is likely Dach's potential as #habs 2C has fallen to the point that another option will be sought. Dach more likely now a good 3C option unless he finds his groove.

For sure - however Islanders do have to re-trench the team right now, and re-cycling Horvat’s remaining contract of $8.5/5 will be very tempting!
comment in response to
post
Horvat is 30, Toews 37.
To acquire Horvat (if Darche is willing) his contract would cost #habs $8.5m for 5 seasons each (nothing retained).
This may work with a 2-way 2C who would be a core player for at least 5 yrs. Horvat’s experience is also needed.
comment in response to
post
Thx, appreciated.
For me, signing Toews would be an opportunity cost - and provide only a short term gain.
#habs team building strategy seems to be an iterative model with both young and sub 32ish players, growing, developing, and being re-cycled for new assets.
Otherwise, they become the Leafs!
comment in response to

Karine, surely you know a 37 y/o NHL vet will command $$, block a younger players progress, and is completely contrary to Hughes' team building strategy for sustained #habs success.
Why do you feel compelled to write this? Please tell me it is not for clicks.

I’m betting ALL my rubles that SKA oligarch owner/president/HC Roman Rotenberg had the pick changed to Demidov!

Nothing like ‘young’ Pedro showing his power & agression in Montreal as an #expos - a beauty to watch at the big ‘owe’!

As ‘did’ I, until Joey turned the team into an embarrassment for players, coaches, admin, AND fans.
The ‘new’ Harold Ballard, of Jeffrey Loria.
comment in response to

Zio Joey is making #CFMTL look bad:
1 - A meager players budget, with a team of 'middling to average' players trying to win games against quality teams.
2 - Ownership interference causing quality team builders to bail.
Why does this feel like #expos Jeffrey Loria all over again? #FML
