Dog you’re about to turn 36… this ain’t a retirement home (respectfully)

How many times you see that, When no contract can be had!
HotHits630
And so it shall be.
Peckerhead321
PTO next year and hopefully he gets a spot
votequimby420
nah
KN1GH7F4LL
League minimum 1 year contract and it’s yours 🤷♂️ if he is serviceable at TDL he gets shipped to a contender
Cole-Caufield
J’adorerais le voir à mtl!
Quasihodor
Dude hasn’t put up less than 45 points since 2015.
We’ve only had 15 players put up more than 45 points per season in that time frame.
Suzuki x 3
Pacioretty x 2
Galchenyuk x 2
Drouin x 2
Tatar x 2
Danault x 2
Caufield x 1
Domi x 1
Slafkovsky x 1
Matheson x 1
Radulov x 1
Petry x 1
Shaw x 1

Plekanec x 1

Yeah well, missed the window I guess.

100% would sign him to a 1 year contract, or even 2 years if he takes a team-friendly deal. Could be good trade deadline fodder too and brings a winning pedigree to the team.
cosmicturtle0
anyone saying they don’t want him on a cheap 1 or 2 year deal is crazy, this is the type of veteran presence you need to help bring young guys up to the next level and getting them competing.
Burgergold
3M 1y for 15g 40-45pts I wouldnt say no
Could start on the third and take some shift on 2nd if required
DCARRI3R3
750k and a bag of chips come on down

“It’s always been a dream to play for the Habs and now that nobody wants me, I can probably mail it in a couple hours away from my home town.”
In reality he’s still decent but I’m offended by the “always been a dream” haha I’m sure he had a chance before and didn’t.
hab27
Oh is it already time to give a retirement contract to yet another Franco player who never wanted to be here despite being a UFA 78 times?
OkAnything4877
Quebec players always try this when they’re old and trying to get one last contract, but never wanna play here otherwise. No thanks David.
Physical-Asparagus48
Would be a great fit on a 2 yr deal at a reasonable salary.

Keep dreaming, David.
SignificantRain1542
Never too late to make your dream come true but it sure is odd timing. Thanks, but no thanks.
3oysters
I’m indifferent to this either way.
Far-Duty-3556
No thanks maybe 5 years ago, yeah
Adam87
If he signs for around $2.5 million for a year or two, hometown discount plus some signing and performance bonus then it is solid vet depth, with Gally and Anderson, young guys to fight for time. Plus obviously injuries, we sign him, he gets hurt right away and we LTIR until playoffs.
Rockterrace
The next Tanguay, Briere, Parenteau?
TR_13
I dont see it tha bleak (from the sentiment from the comment section). We’ve seen some sweet mentoring work Suz->Slaf. Maybe Perrron wil teach kid another trick or two 😉
jadenspan
Well keep dreaming pal
Jaynki
No interest.
Sorry buddy. Not at 34YO.
Hinya
Man, j’hais les ti gars de chez nous lmao. Ils veulent toujours venir quand ils sont plus dans leur primes.
daredevil09
2 weeks ago he said he hope it work out, to stay in Detroit.
vengra
A few seasons too late, he would have been fun to have in his prime.
Fighteroftheevil
Id be so happy to have him in Montreal
jockey1381
I’ll take him for minimum. Anything more no thank you
flepine44
Next time we play Detroit, put Coldplay all game long
DelugeQc
QUOI! Un québécois vieillissant qui se magasine un nouveau contrat indique vouloir jouer pour le CH?!?! NON! Quelle surprise! Je m’y attendais pas pantoute. Fuck him man, tout le monde veut jouer à Montréal quand c’est le temps de signer un nouveau mais personne finit ici dans son *prime.*
paul_33
Uh huh. I’m good thanks
Supercc
Y’a pas mal de Québécois qui veulent venir finir leur carrière une fois rendu bien finis.
C’est naon.
Brewju
Fuck off. He had the chances to, but chose to sign elsewhere for more $. Now he’s trying to leverage a new contract for himself…
