I k ow some fans are impatient, but for me, I’m fine with whatever growth from within comes from Caufield-Suzuki-Slaf another year older and together, Dach being back, Newhook for a full season (hopefully) and a blue line with Matheson, Guhle, Savard, Hutson, Xhekaj, Harris, Barron and maybe Mailloux. The FAs this year were weak and way too expensive, plus it’s not time yet to spend.
Tony, you pleaded for a rebuild for years. Now that there is one, you suggest Habs sign a non-impact player like Sprong, aged 27? This will not speed up the rebuild. My reasons:-
1- Habs roster would increase to 14 forwards. Therefore Roy is sent down as the only 2 forwards waiver exempt are him and Slaf.
2- Dvo, Armia, Pezz & Evans (debatable whether Habs resign given Beck, Kapanen & Hage could be ready for 2025/26 season) will be pending UFAs so must play to maximize value by trade deadline.
3- Anderson has to play to have a bounce back season and then trade. Gally won't be benched.
Therefore best way to proceed is as Eric suggested, by trade. This should help clear the logjam, whether at forward or on defense. Suggest one more year of patience and take it from there.
He always do that... Spending money on a player that will take the place of a young player. For what ??? To get4 points closer to the 40 points it takes to make the cut ???
@@erictremblay3044 It definitely does not make sense to me.
We don’t need the 5 minute intro. Just get into your episode.
7:32
Right on, who wants to listen 5 minutes of a song that has nothing to do with any messsgr
I only come here to listen to the intro song, then im out
I got nothing against the guy, but I hope Strong is not the missing piece. if he become the only alternative at that point, I would rather they sign nobody.
Tony do you have any players coming on the podcast? I would love to hear you chat with them.
How many games did we lose by a goal? A lot. A healthy Dach is what we need....adding too much will hurt us. We need one more year of good draft picks to really be a dominate team for years to come
Bingo ! Let all the other teams over pay these guys
I remember being in the Montreal Airport back in the Mid 90's and two guys that worked there were on Lunch break , I just happened to be at the Table next to them having a Coffee and they spent their entire lunch break telling Shayne Corson stories . All I can say , is if 25% of them were True , then Corson is lucky to still be alive or not in Prison , lol . Crazy Dude , oh how the times have changed ...lol
Good point by Eric! We need a top six. We don't need to block young players from having a spot.
Before I even watch the video, answer is simple.
He's waiting on Laine's clearance. He is the cheapest to acquire, and just like Monahan, a gamble with low risks and high rewards possibilities.
He is costly for 2 years, but we can afford it. He is in the age range we want. If he blows a tire, in 2 years he's gone and we get 8.5M to spend on someone else. If a la Monahan, he gets good again, then we win big time.
Price tags are too high,we are still seeing what we have with alot of our assets
Glad to hear Tony M again. Congratulations on the new show 🎉
Totally agree with Eric, you can’t block young players, better to give them a chance. Let them grow, with Dach and Roy, we will be better, Anderson can’t be as bad and neither can RHP, don’t sleep on RHP
We don't need any Ufa. Keep building with what we have.
Tony j'adore ton podcast! Merci 😊
Next summer will be the ideal time to add some vet free agents with all that cap space. Sam Bennett could be ufa and an excellent pick up 😊
I get what Erik is trying to say when he talks about bringing in a bottom 6 forward like Sprong, but let's say if the Canadiens were to try to bring in a bottom 6 forward like Duclair then that would be a great move because he could play a top 6 forward role occasionally at times and the reason why I brought him up also is because he's another player from Quebec.
Bringing in for example forwards like Duclair could help the Canadiens a lot but of course the Canadiens need a true top 6 forward in their line up right now and that's the hard piece to get.
And another thing too, I always thought the Canadiens had too many bottom 6 forwards and so why add more.
Excellent show guys! Ty 🙏🏼
Habs are getting a top 6 F. Dach is returning. A Laine in the top 6 would be nice, but there really is no reason to force it.
Hes top 3 in my books
Listen halfway thru the podcast and no hockey talk. Eshhhh
They will add big name. Time not just right yet
the answer to the title is: because hughes ain't stupid and realize he doesnt need a trade absolutely. He can continue building the team from inside.
hey Tony how come you haven't talked about team Canada at the copa yet?
Because this is hockey channel
@@JoeBoozer except it’s not
That 5 minute intro is so unnecessary’
I respect these guy’s opinions. But that 1 hour intro is not necessary
I dont watch it. In fact since Tony went on his embarassing make hockey like soccer and ban fighting campaign i don t take him seriously. The intro and music here is vomitous and Tony has really faded since he pulled the hippocrite ban fighting thing.
Catch it on youtube and fast forward it. Like this episode por instance. Nothing so far and over 10 mins in. It s FF for me
28 mins in and pumping Daniel Sprong who’s 27 and was on Wings 4th line and now at the end at 38 mins and Sprong.
38 mins of your life you wont get back haha. Glad i didnt watch haha. At least there was no fighting
Nightlife definitely not as good as it was.
I would rather give Anderson, Gallagher another try vs signing Sprong.
Keep the team as it is unless something truly worth it becomes possible. we don't need Sprong. Let the kids play. Next year is when things start to truly matter.,
Sick
I wonder if Tony will rudely ignore Eric again because his son walked in 😂
A lot of rambling talk . Come on ...stick to HABS HOCKEY !!
Go habs go!!
This episode was a whole lot of nothing.
Tony sometimes has a frustrating habit of rambling on about a statement that can be made in 5 seconds but drags it on for 5 minutes
If they wanna make a move.. they should go for a trade ... not the worst of the rest... with sprong ... or someone else
Why would you want the Habs to be "marginally" better? That is a ridiculous statement. To become "marginally" better would come at a cost (unless the loss is one of our remaining bad contracts). I would much rather see Huges/St Louis try to put Gally, Armi and Anderson in situations that favor their numbers then trade them at the deadline with some retention.
Nope….i say no Tony. I usually agree with ya but not this guy from Detroit
Necas would move the needle
No
Smarter men then you & I disagree with u on that
@@constantinosgeorgakopoulos926no reason to overpay for Necas
Enough of the Sprong talk.....when a player like Sprong is all over the place, it's a character problem........see his dad for details. I wanted him so bad in his draft year....then we heard about his family problems.
Harris Barron Dvorak 1st and 2nd round pics for McGroarty Ehlers and and 3rd
Too much to give to Winnipeg. Patience this time will serve Montreal best. There’s an impatience to Montreal, they want this rebuild done 2 years ago. Welcome to the new reality of the NHL, everything is cyclical. Relax and Kent and Jeff will deliver
Jets are competitive draft picks not helpfull, also out west and playoffs, harris and barron not really helpfull either for them
Eric has No problem having Anderson evans and rhp in the bottom six producing 58p in total but says no to sprong having 43p moving up and down in the lineup is funny, how is having the same players there this season knowing they won’t produce instead of signing secondary scoring cheap to help something they always need because they’ve been bottom 10 in scoring every season since they went all the way to SCF… Why even ask him questions about the team?
We can't get rid of Anderson at the moment. We have too many guys in the bottom 6 right now. If we sign an additional player it will be for the top 6. If we get a guy like Necas, Laine, Zegras, Perfetti or whatever, It's easy to push Anderson to the bottom 6 for the whole season where he'll be in a more comfortable chair.
If you add Sprong, you're stuck with less room on the roster, in the bottom 6 and no room for the youngsters who may be ready to fill that role just as well for cheaper if not more efficiently.
I don't understand why people would want to add a type of player we already have. If we could buyout or trade Anderson and/or Gallagher that would be a different conversation.
Most importantly Sprong doesn't play defense. Montreal is building a team culture, throwing in a player that doesn't play a team game(doesn't play defense) is not what they should be interested in.
@@jbunit2 Agree that Anderson can’t be moved but there are others like dvo, evans, rhp that can be and no one of those players can produce like sprong.
He wouldn’t be a replacement for zegras, Necas etc, but those players are the ones you trade for the top6 and guys like sprong is to have a good top9 instead of having guys like pez and rhp in the lineup who just do cardio every game.
@@Erik-ms3du but you don’t build a team with players who all are the same, Montreal needs secondary scoring and if you play him with players who plays good defense that wouldn’t be a problem, you need the bottom six to produce points too and we can’t have 2 fourth lines if they wanna be a better team, good teams score more.
@@JonasJ-.- bottom six players need to play defense, that is a reality in the NHL. That is the reason why he has not been signed and will probably end up on a pto. Nothing you said addresses the fact that Montreal doesn't need players that don't play a team game. I agree their bottom six needs a retool, Sprong is not the answer though.
Tony - 23 minutes of nonsense , backstories that go nowhere and rambling , 7 minutes of content when he lets someone talk.
Même Tony croit pas ce qu’il dit quand il prétend que Strong serait une bonne signature pour le ch. ça ferait aucun sens. Mais rendu le 8 juillet, il faut trouver des sujets pour parler du canadien lol
Sign Paciorety to 1 year 1 million
He can play PP with Suzuki and close the trade circle
