actually,i'm not at all surprised at samsonov's stats this year.they're right where they should be considering what line he's playing on.remember,sergei's highest goal total in his career is 29 and that's playing with JOE THORNTON.that's pretty low considering what joe can do(ie cheechoo).montreal misjuged this guy in the off season and brought him in to score goals.NEWSFLASH.if he only got 29 playing with Thornton,what was he possibly going to do on the 4th line even though it was he that put himself there.

How can people actually criticize the Habs for this?There`s a reason boston basically gave him away and Edmonton didn`t make any effort to re-sign him. He was given oppurtunities but didn`t do anything, although I would have liked to see what would happen on a line with koivu and another winger other than Kovalev.

If Gainey recalls him, he'll have to clear waivers again. Any team can pick him up on re-entry waivers and the habs will have to pay the remaining 1/2 his salary for this year, but whoever picks him up, is on the hook for the full 3.5 next year.

Guess you forget Tucker has more goals then anyone on the Habs.

What does that mean exactly? Can any team pick him up for nothing?

Just heard on the radio that Gainey's had enough and placed him on waivers. I guess there goes the possible trade with chicago, not like we needed aucoin and his retarded salary anyways.

Idiot,
It was the Maple laughs who drafted & gave up on Perrault in the first place.
LOSERS!!! CAN YOU SAY ALL STAR!!!

Never mind break the cup drout, you guys can't even make the post-season. In the meantime, the Habs with no 2nd line are in 4th spot in the east. You laugh all you want

Typical Leafs loser fan right here.

Well darcy sucker might get some goals, but he's one of the most hated pricks in the nhl, and I rather not have him on my team, as for Kilger, he hasn't improved, he was a highly touted prospect who's become a 4th liner. As for perrault, he didn't cost very much, any team on the nhl could've had him. As for samsonov, he just hasn't produced, all he does is figure skate around the ice, he might've scored 20 goals a year, but that was playing with Joe Thornton, and look what he did with Cheechoo last year. And as for scratching players, well the habs have enough depth that they can scratch players, I rather have a guy like max lapierre who plays hard, than samsonov on the team.

I would expect a reaction from like this from a guy who calls himself Darcysucker…… that sucker has more goals than any player on the Habs and he hasn't played in over a month. And another thing you just admitted that Montreal gave up on those guys and eventually became better. So maybe this isn't the dumbest thing you heard since you agreed.Leafs didn't pick him up this summer because they were spending money on Michael Peca…. it was on the news… not sure if you heard.Yah yah …40 years… I haven't heard that one! lets face it the one reason why Montreal won in 1993 – Patrick Roy …. and what happened to him? Team pissed him off… he left and won a couple of more with the Avs… no more cup for Habs ever again!Point being, maybe the Habs should stop being so one sided…. with the old "its my way or the high way" attitude. Work with your players don't just scratch them. You know Samsonov could play… he's a proven 20+ goal scorer!!!
