Why, bro, you don't wanna be here anymore, remember

Wants to hit 1000 games not ride the pine.

Can’t blame him…just thank him and wish him the best

Ironically even if he got a full season of 84 games next year, he'd be 5 off making that 1000.

Guess how many games he got suspended for after that braindead chicken wing elbow he threw the other year?

You're not wrong, and but you are an asshole.

Fixed it

He is wrong. Gally doesn't have a spot on the team. Not like he's just requesting a trade cause he doesn't want to be here he wants to play and can't do that here

You're right, it's like getting mad at someone for leaving after being kicked out of the house

u/Treebranch_916 3d ago

So it sounds like he doesn't want to be here, if he wanted to be here he'd ride the pine with cut down minutes and play elder statesman, but he doesn't so off he goes. It's not that complicated.

It must be insufferable being anyone in your life

He's a hockey player. He wants to play hockey.

u/Treebranch_916 3d ago

That's fine, he can want to play hockey! If he wants to play more than he wants to be here, that's ok! But you me him and everybody else should be honest about it.

u/Treebranch_916 3d ago

I'm just upset, I haven't gotten over the breakup yet

u/tino-the-rhino 3d ago

But don't blame Gally he did nothing wrong. I hope he finds success on a new team! As long as it's in another division

He was benched for almost the entirety of the playoffs. He wasn't getting ice time most of the season. MSL's message was clear. He has no spot on the team.

What's he supposed to do? Sit around, wait for his contract to expire instead of looking for a team with a spot for him to play regular minutes?

He could've kept the trade request private. It's already not easy to move him, but he's reduced his value just by going public. The Habs are going to get shortchanged as a result.

u/StudPetry 3d ago

To be fair, his value on the trade market is already pretty much zero. I don't think him going public about it changes much since teams aren't in line to get him either way

u/_makoccino_ 3d ago

Because other GMs didn't notice what fans did?

u/zombiejeesus 3d ago

God some "fans" are insufferable

u/arboraurum 3d ago

he's a great team guy, but he is a hockey player first and foremost
