[edit] Playing career

Markov was drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in the 6th round, 162nd overall, in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft. After being considered one of the best defencemen in Russia in 2000, he came over to North America and split time with the Canadiens and their then-minor league affiliate, the Quebec Citadelles of the American Hockey League (AHL). After rounding out his defensive game, he has become a regular in the Canadiens starting line-up and is widely considered to be their best overall defensemen.

During the 200405 NHL lockout, he played in his native Russia with HC Dynamo Moscow.

Markov signed a four-year deal with the Canadiens on May 28, 2007, keeping him with the team through the 201011 season.[1] Markov was set to become an unrestricted free agent.

Markov had a career year in the 200708 season, and was selected to his first NHL All-Star game as a starter.

why the fuck would you use this song

[corunguneee]

@mattgold11 why not

[Malkingod71]

He is the team period. He is a UFA after 2011, hopefully Gainey or whoever replaces him after this year re signs him he is a hab for life. Not talkative but he gets the job done for the team. He is definitly an assistant captian on my team anyday. Too bad he is injured its okay though, when he comes back well do fine after all Anaheim did very bad at the start and only caught fire in the end of the season last year. Remain positive Habs fans Its a long season.

[corunguneee]

@Malkingod71 Smart man, Habs went all the way to the final 4. =P

Too bad Cooke injured Markov again.
