-Tony Esposito played 13 games with Montreal...
And they let him go on waivers.

He was the best goalie in their minor league program, but they obviously didn't recognize it.

They would have kept him ahead of all the other goalies named, according to their "system".

Since this is the Christmas season, I avoided using the word "system" so a couple of members can relax and not go apeshit. LOL!
You are so clued out. There's nothing wrong with the word system. The problem is this BS story that you're pushing about the "Montreal system" of building a team.

Please provide a link on the internet as to this supposed system.

BTW, thanks for thinking of me as you post.

Worsley is also an interesting case. It's true that he played with the Rangers for 10 years before joining the Habs. He was a good but not great goalie with the Rangers. If he had stayed with them it is unlikely he would be in the HOF now. It was his 6 years with the Habs that made him great.

The Habs knew that Esposito was a good-great goalie but they already had Worsley, Vachon and Dryden in the organization/system. Unfortunately, couldn't keep them all.

"Esposito played thirteen regular-season games, due to both Gump Worsley and Vachon being injured. However, Esposito returned to the minor leagues when they both returned from their injuries. Worsley was injured again during the playoffs, so Esposito was called again. He served as backup to Vachon, dressing for all four games in the Finals as Montreal won the Stanley Cup, with Esposito having his name engraved on there as a winning member. As the Canadiens club was deep in goaltenders at that time, with Worsley, Vachon, and other prospects in the SYSTEM, Esposito was left unprotected by the Canadiens in 1969."

No fucking way...Chicago, Boston and New York Rangers are all better...

Is this another Hab thing? ...our team is shit but our jersey is still the best.
Chicago is by far the best jersey in hockey. It may very well be the best jersey in all of sports. I bought a red one from the official Blackhawks souvenir shop in downtown Chicago about20 years ago because it's so cool, not that I'm a fan. Compare that to a C around an H.

It looks like you missed grade 4 spelling thou...
I think the word you're looking for is 'though', not 'thou'. Just in case you're studying for the grade 4 spelling bee. 🤫

It's an intentional typo based on the obvious typo in my user name.
Not sure how a spelling class would help on that. Typing class sure.
In grade 4 it would have been 1979, didn't have computers and didn't use typewriters [we had one, never used it]

As others pointed out. The irony of having a spelling error in a post slagging someone for spelling.
