Lol Saad has 27 points no from Mtl.

Patches is also 4 years older, going to get a raise next year, only has two more goals, in the exact same games played and is a -14. Not so cut and dry that he’s the better player.

-14 lolll pacioretty has pk time but saad doesn't and +- doesn't mean anything.

Rather have saad, he's been consistent though the years and having a off year, but Chicago rebuilding does want to get older, trading saad probably would want younger cheaper players.

Well you don’t register minus’s on a penalty kill so I don’t see what that has to do with anything either. Also patches kills penalties and saad doesn’t?

Patches ice time Per game
Total 19:06
PP 3:07
Pk: 1:43

Saad Ice time per game
Total 17:22
Pp 2:19
Pk 1:45

So patches plays more 5-on5 and more on the PP (been on the ice for almost 100 min more than saad this year) and has 2 more goals. Saad killed a fraction more penalty time. It’s really easy to find the information. They both kill penalties very similarly. Saad has similar goal production in less opportunity both even strength and power play. He’s younger and under contract 2 years longer for less than patches will make in those 2 years. Saad all day.

Patch is the better player if Chicago wants out of that sadd contract they would have to add. Any unbiased person could see that lol.

If Montreal wants to rebuild and trade patches then obviously a trade for saad doesn’t make sense for them. But player for player to say patches is better isn’t so cut and dry is what I said. And when the argument is that patches kills penalties and saad doesn’t, then you see that saad plays more every night on the hawks PK ranked 10th in the NHL and patches plays less on a 26th ranked Habs Pk, it’s foolish. Talk about biased and unreasonable.

And again it goes back to my simmonds over patches point. Saad plays a physical game, goes to the net, has been 10-12 pts less a season over last 4 years and has 2 cups. That experience of being a champion and knowing what it takes plus the physical play makes up for those 10 points ten-fold.

12.) 02 Mar 2018

Physical play lol patch has more hits this year then sadd has the last 3 years combined. I know there is more things involved to be considered physical but I think that stat alone proves pacioretty is at least his equal in that department. add that to being the better scorer even with lesser line mates and your going to sit here and tell me saad is better. Change your name man it's making me sick. I told you before and I'll tell you again your one of the most biased on here.

Still don’t get how I’m biased. I like a lot of players from every team in the league. Every team there's players I like and players I dislike. Because I said I like one player on the hawks (which is not my team), and think he’s a better player means I’m a biased hab hater? As a white guy, I better tell everyone that I’m friends with every single black person in the world or I must be a racist too lol you’re a goof. One habs fan on here already said he lost the job to Bergevin, another one says he played for the habs but spelt his name wrong and doesn’t know what year he was born, it’s only a matter of time before you’re Geoff Molson and Mtl4Life is Youppi the mascot anyway.

I’ve never said a bad word about Weber besides that contract is going to be a tough one down the road (not just me, pretty common opinion) and I told habs fans they were nuts when people posted trades and proposals putting price on waivers when he was struggling at the beginning of the year rather than piling on. And I’ve called lots of ppls low offers for habs players out before. I’m not a fan of galchenyuk and think teams are better off not investing in him because he always seems to come up short of expectations and I find patches a very one dimensional player, which is fine in a supporting role, but don’t think he warrants the value you put on him. Wouldn’t be the best player on just about any other team in the league. That’s my opinion, you have yours. But that’s not hating on the habs. THose are 4 of the 5 most talked about/ criticized habs (drouin the other) and I’ve defended drouin too saying I like the player, think they should have spent sergachev on a natural centre, not a winger, but that’s not drouins fault.

Habby. pretty sure saad isn't a cap dump, i would rather have a good young player with term than an older player that's nothing but rental.
I for one enjoy jims insight, aside from sharing his opinions and views like everyone else he brings a lot of cold hard facts to this page. I also find his comments very fair when it comes to proposals on his team, the leafs.
I also noticed that there has never been a pacioretty proposal on here that's been believable to habs fans, EVER. so who's being the real homers here?

Yeah Jim that's fine but one thing I will say is when subban was with the habs you among many others and yes I remember you saying it. Had weber ranked as the better dman. But surprisingly when they switched teams subban was automatically better. Hmmmmmmm what does that tell you?

17.) 03 Mar 2018
03 Mar 2018 01:52:19
Plus jim you tippy toed around the fact pacioretty hits more in a game then saad does in a month? What's up with that?

18.) 03 Mar 2018
03 Mar 2018 02:21:04
I’ve never said subban is better than Weber. One for one in their prime I take weber all day. I liked the trade at the time for the habs. And I said if the habs didn’t win in the next few years it will look bad and then will look worse every season after and I still believe that.

Colt, I get your a habs supporter and throw your weight behind Habby, but you pretended to be an ex NHLer and messed up how old you were. You have no credibility. Having your support is like when the KKK came out supporting Trump. Some support you just don’t want!
