It is frustrating how PG gets away with all this silence on the guy HE signed.
I have no issues with the signing...just let us know what the heck is going on. They have nothing to gain by keeping it low key.
I'm more pissed by the medical staff than witrh Gauthier. He was told Markov would be ok for the start of the season...a pretty reasonable expectation for an ACL reconstruction(see Malkin tearing up the league).

Honestly if Markov's career is possibly over I wish they would be open about it. I'm not entirely sure Gauthier is the one hiding anything, it seems like every doctor is saying something different.

Markov will be back on time. Time for the 2014 olympics!
Just kidding. The whole story has been messed up since day 1. I'm really hoping we get some good news this week, that he's back skating.
He'll make it just in time for the 2014 Olympics but will have played 0 games for the Habs since his last injury. He'll go on to bring gold back to Russia and hab fans with be uber excited to have him back posting ridiculous numbers at the Olympics.
A day before his first game back he'll trip outside the bell center due to poor salting and a slippery road, he'll tear both his ACL/MCL and never play again.

You're darn right !
The Olympincs will take place in Russia on top of that. And we all know that Markov would play on one leg for his country's team. **** the Habs and their 18 million $ contract !

Markov is actually signed 2 years 18 millions! with a 5.75 cap hit!
If that's the case what do they have to gain by keeping it quiet?
it's PG's policy to keep quiet. He doesn't want anyone disclosing info on injuries (this goes for Hamilton players as well), just like he doesn't want Timmins talking about the draft picks.
