Bob McKenzie is semi-retired, walks into the studio on deadline day, breaks the Tomas Hertl to VGK trade that NOBODY saw coming and then just goes home for the rest of the year. The best.

Shea Weber playing 25 minutes a night with a busted wrist, knee and ankle to lead the Canadiens to their first Stanley Cup Final in 28 years is some legendary shit. If this is it, what a way to go out.

I don’t know why people are ripping on EA for choosing Auston Matthews to be the cover athlete for NHL22. Targeting the fan base that has the most free time to play the game once the playoffs start is just flat out smart marketing.

Josh Anderson has played just over a full season with the Canadiens (this is his 91st game). He has scored 27 goals. Sure his cap hit is a bit high but he’s a big, fast physical winger who can score. Not sure why so many people want to ship him out of town.

I thought Shea Weber was possibly Montreal’s best player in the Final, outside of Nick Suzuki. We all knew he was hurt, but doing that with 3 major injuries - at least one of which could be career ending - is simply amazing.
