Amen, Dickie. After everything Saku Koivu has done for both the city of Montreal and its team, after everything the city has done for Koivu, to have Gainey decide to not even extend an offer is a slap in the face. Sure, there are fans who want to see him gone, but those people are never happy anyway. Then there are those of us who idolize Koivu for so many reasons, but realize that this team is going nowhere, and want to see him get the Cup. The there are those who know Koivu should retire a Hab.
Moore said it best when he said, "This is awful. In life, you get back what you give, and I don't know what the Canadiens are going to get for doing this to Saku."
Yeah yeah, we got an overpriced center, some guy named Calamari (LOL, Number 31), and Hal Gill. I like the last signing, but leaving Koivu out in the cold is beyond ridiculous. I was talking with a friend the other day about how bummed I was about this. This friend is/was a Baltimore Orioles fan, and that made me think of this analogy: Imagine if the Orioles had forced out Cal Ripken, Jr. THAT is exactly what's happening in Montreal.
Fire Gainey.
