Another Pathetic Podcast: Summer Series, Ep. 2, Where's the beef (UFA edition). What'll the Habs do?

Now I should preface this by saying, you know, first thing we're, we're not going to talk about trades because trades, you know, It takes too long.

You go down rabbit holes like, who could you send? And it's all fantasy, as they say in German.

My dear guest.

I am Mr. Rourke, your host.

Welcome to Fantasy Island.

These are guys that are just available because their contracts have run out.

And if you make the best offer, you got them.

Yes.

Now it varies.

Some, some will be more sought after than others.

And the ones that are more sought after, you know, the price is going to go up, but these are just guys that are right now are available to make offers to, and not all of them are top six guys.

As a matter of fact, I would say most of them aren't, there's a couple that might be, but most of these I compiled this list with the thought in mind that the bottom six needs to change its identity.

Identity needs to, so that they have an identity that is, we are big, we are mean, we are hard to play against, you know, like, because right now they have no defined identity.

They have individual players who can sometimes bring that element, but mostly they're just nondescript.

There's no identity.

So they need to have an identity.

In fairness, we can help with that.

They have some identity.

They have players like Anderson, but Anderson cannot do it on his own.

No.

And every year that goes by, he can do it less.

Well, that's, that's yeah, exactly.

So he

can do it sometimes, but

not, he hasn't shown the consistency yet.
