1 year easy Invest in recycling

IMO
In a utopian society where the decision makers are engineers and technicians accountable for their performance at the end of the term.
Mars in 100 years would certainly be possible and necessary if one wish to put same Eggs in a different basket
After all we went to the Moon whit a few 386’s, it could be done now whit the computing power of a mobile phone.

I am sad that PK was treated with such disrespect. One of the better humans in the league and his shoes were spit on. No excuse for that.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say he was treated disrespectfully...but i assume when mean that it would be stupid to want to "get rid of him" because he has such a heart...( i don't know i speculate)?

I think it has precisely to do with how you define "heart". Also, fans have different expectations and criteria for a "desired player attitude" than the staff or the team.

The thing is that although he was "likeable" in his personality..... his way of life, his philosophy, his view of what a team should look like was radically opposed to the majority of players and staff's view of it. He just didn't "fit in" right and with his non-trade agreement kicking in today, it would have been quite a gamble to keep him in the lineup.

Also, in the GM's view, a player that can make other players elevate their game is a key ingredient to success, and when he was offered Weber (a natural leader), considering he just drafted a rough diamond in Mikhail Sergachev and also considering that younger defensemen didn't progress as much as he expected to, he jumped on it right away. You could also add in the balance that Weber will defend The goalie better against violence due to his size and that he cost 1 million or so less per year...small extras like that.

But anyway...i understand that some people are angry because of his likeable personality....he hey...if he's happier elsewhere and make people happy elsewhere..what's the problem...?

After that if people say that the Canadiens and fans are just a bunch of selfish stupid "stuck-ups"...what can i do...? Time will tell i guess....
