Found this on another board. Not sure how true.
Sorry Mods, not sure where on the board to put it so I'll put it here. Don't know who guy is but some interesting things are said.
MolsonMan is back!

Well hello everyone, its been a while but I feel that with a new NHL it was only right that I return to my favourite board. Now some of the newer members won't know me but I am sure the older members can inform you of my "credentials".
Well I am sure you are very interested in why the Habs have not been running into any moves. This is the correct decision as Gainey has his sights more locked on next year and wants to be able to have avalable cap space. However the Habs are planning some big moves which I am sure will interest you.
At the trade deadline last season we came very close to aqcuiring Lecavallier. The deal we offered was Koivu + Hainsey, the Lightning wanted Koivu + Komisarek which we refused however Koivu + Hainsey is back on and a trade is very likely to happen between. Now I am sure you are all screaming about the "great" Saku Koivu, the truth is that he is not the "god" everyone makes him out to be. He and Julien have frequent arguments, he refuses to play Julien's system often and is not a great leader.
As for Free Agents, Satan coming is as you are all aware a very likely proposition as is Selanne, however BG's priority is to trade Koivu, but if he cant do this he will sign Selanne.
On another note, Dan O'Neil ex Molson CEO is negotiating with GG to replace Boivin as President. Hope all is well my fellow Hab fans and there will be much more to come.
