BTW Kubina’s 38 points last year is his personal record

Kubina was -12 last season, not perfect, but thats largly due to the fact that he didn’t score as much, and when he did it was on the pp. Tucker and Peca will make the second line. Those two could make one of the gritiest lines in the Leaue.

GP:552
G:154
P:331
+/-:+17

Tucker’s:
683 GP
155 G
204 A
+/-:-51

Sundin’s
1156 gp
496g
671a
+63

Tucker is lucky TO is so poor on the wings that he plays with Sundin,in 3/4 of the rest of the league,he would be at best a second line grinder.

McCabe is better than the likes of Souray,Gonchar and leetch in his own end,but hes no Mckee or Markov.BUT KUBINA!!!

Kubina
gp:531
g:65
p:144
+/-:….-99!!!
Yeah,hes pretty solid….

This team is serious for the first time since Serge Savard’ era.

Replying to habsoverserver, I think that last years team looks like the 92 team.They replaced players that had done their time in MTL by players with more determination to win( Courtnall, Richer and Corson replaced by Damphousse, Savard, Muller and Bellows).

This year, we got rid of Sundstrom, bulis and Zednik. A lot of fans including me were sick of seing their faces. The addition of Samsonov will finally give the habs 2 real scoring lines. Johnson, who will probably start the year on the 3rd line, is certainly better than any of the three players who we won’t miss.

So it looks pretty exciting, it will be a great year with all the young talents hungry to make the team.

MY GOD, McCabe does not struggle in he defencive zone, nether does Kabere, or Kubina. Remember the last 12 games of the leafs season. Where was Allison again, oh yeah he was injured. He only got his points because he played with Tucker and Sundin on the PP, most of his points were assists that he didn’t even deserve.

On paper, this is the best team since 1993. But, 1993 wasn’t a very good team. The same team lost in the second round in 1992 and in the first round in 1994.

So if you want to say that this team is like the 92-94 teams that could either lose in the first round or win the cup, I would agree with that range of expectations. But without a stand on his head goalie, it’s likely going to be the usual first or second round exit.

That’s not the way Gainey does things. He’s not turning over 50% of the offence.

And you said: ‘We just lost Allison and Lindros…’
Man,those guys were your guns,the dishers on your PP…

I know Lindros did sucked but Allison was your top PP guy with McCabe.Look at Allison’s carreer stats,look at Peca’s.It’S just not the same universe….

Hope for you that guys like Stajan,Steen and Wellwood breaks out,coz my god,it’s going to stink a lot in the Air Canada Center…

Oh and Raycroft,to me,feels like a second Jim Carey…..

Damn,Rask is the next Lundqvist and you traded him for that piece of crap….
