GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 Poor Montreal. I guess this means Chicago plans on keeping Khabibulin since trading Lang puts them back under the salary cap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 I think that is a good trade for Montreal. He will play 3rd line with Latendresse and S. Kostitsyn Good trade Habs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FunkedUp 29 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=249263&...os=topStory_nhl The Montreal Canadiens have acquired forward Robert Lang from the Chicago Blackhawks, in return for a second-round selection in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft (acquired from Toronto along with Greg Pateryn, in return for Mikhaïl Grabovski, July 3, 2008). Discuss... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motorcitykid 42 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 Heres hoping Langer adds to Montreal and doesn't become a distraction. If not for bleeding Red Wings red, I've always wanted the Habs to do well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted September 12, 2008 Well, it looks like Montreal will finally win their 25th Cup. They now have a guy who can score clutch goals in the playoffs, which they haven't had since Guy Lafleur left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest GordieSid&Ted Report post Posted September 12, 2008 http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=249263&...os=topStory_nhl Discuss... I like it for Montreal because they're so talented that Lang will look even better (fantasy leaguers take note...late round sleeper) I don't like it for Montreal because they are softer than friggin' charmin. That team needs more nasty on it and they ain't got it. Too much of a good thing. They look like the East version of the Wings from a few years ago. Advice for montreal: Look at the Wings, you gotta add a Drake, a Stuart, a Downie, you gotta add some nasty to that Euro talent-laden lineup. Have to have some nasty to win it all. Oh yeah, and with Toews and Kane, who the heck needs Lang anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, I was just responding to his post that Montreal should take example from us and get tougher if they want to win. Well, they have gotten tougher, so I was confused as to what he was alluding to.
