from Stephen Brunt of the Globe and Mail,
If George Gillett was a really smart guy, if he was the craftiest of wheeler-dealers, adept at getting into deals and getting out, at trading assets like hockey cards — and a seer — he would have put the Montreal Canadiens on the block a year ago.
Think back.
Emotions were riding high, the team was first in the NHL’s Eastern Conference and obviously playoff bound. Its mix of veteran talent and an apparently endless supply of terrific young players from the farm seemed to bode well both for the Canadiens’ present and future.
