Sawdust_mtl Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Whats up with Robert Lang? Why aren't they signing him? He was our leading scorer before his tendon injury. I think they are making a mistake letting him go. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstStar Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Eric Engels mentioned in passing that the Czechs Olympic team will not be needing him in Vancouver. Apart from that, it seem the rumor of him being invited to the Habs camp were false. Honestly, I don't think we have the $ for him, we're pretty much hit the cap. Inviting him to camp would be kinda useless, considering we don't have the $ left to sign him. I think it's pretty safe to say that his career in the NHL is pretty much over. It's sad to say, but I'm just being realistic... He wasn't known for his speed before his injury, I can see his skating being a problem for him. That was a serious injury he suffered, even a youngin's skating style would take a dive after that kind of injury. It could take a full season before that tendon is back to normal and at 38, Lang just doesn't have the time. BTW, welcome to the forum! For future references, when talking about players you should always post in the player's thread. I believe his name should still be in the player's thread. If not, you could also ask you question in the "state of the Habs" thread or even the "training Camp" thread. Hope this helps! If you have any questions concerning the site or where/what to post, take a look at the "welcome to the Forum" thread, it should answer all your questions. Enjoy and once again, welcome to the forum!
