Tonight's thoughts
(Preview)
* Komi continues to be the most improved player this year......he'll be a good one....i'm glad we we were patient with him!
*Murray had his best game as a Hab too....he brings energy, grit, and desire needed at this time of year!
*Thankfully...they finally put Streit back in popcorn row....he is...

Listen to me Not the Rest
(Preview)
Yesterdays game, Montreal vs. Pitt., it is obvious that there was problem with NOT ONLY goaltending but team cohessiveness and players morale. I mean Aebischer had a bad game, he's not perfect. This goaltender before coming to the habs org. was playing with the Avs and he was pretty dam...

Time to predict next 10 games
(Preview)
Scoring wins over the next 10 games is a must. After these 10, wehave tough games with New Jersey, Buffalo and Ottawa. So far, we have a good look at 7th, with one game in hand left. But, if you lose that game, there is no advantage. Here's our next 10 games:
PIT 3-1
vs. WSH 4-2
NYI 3-1
TO 4-5 (OT)

Koivu Clearing the Air
(Preview)
They just showed on RDS the team huttled ogether during practice. Koivu was at the center and speaking to every teamate and basically he was clearing the air and telling the Habs to get serious and play with the respect of your teamates.
Looks like Koivu is showing everybody why...

Ryder Soft
(Preview)
Let me rant about this young man who at times shows the potential to be a 35 goal scorer. He plays on about every powerplay, yet when the puck comes to him, he loses it and it gets iced. He never makes a play to another player and from time to time catchs the goalie sleeping and pots one. Its time to give...

Urgency
(Preview)
Well no doubt Atlanta is playing with urgency.
And it looks like TB acquired some after the second period. 5-5 in OT right now after being down 5-1 after 2. Amazing.
At least Montreal matched them by coming out hard in the first 10 minutes for once. And a good 2nd period to finish the Caps off. Hue...

And-o cuts Saku some slack...
(Preview)
...Bob Gainey needs to shoulder much of the blame for at least the past few weeks of Saku's slump!
Why is Saku not skating full-time with Kovy and Zed? That line...love them or not...should be made to sink and/or float this team!
If Bob Gainey is too stubborn to reunite this line (and A...

Saks, Kovy and Captain
(Preview)
It seems that if Kovy is telling Rivet to F off, he not only has disrespect for his co-assistant but probably many players including little Saks. Maybe Gainey needs to make a choice? Since he can't trade lucky Saks, he might want to consider trading Kovy for a player who will tolerate the leaders...

DON'T BLAME ONE PLAYER

how can we single out one player when basically the whole team sucked over the last three games! if you were to put blame on someone, blame gainey. how can a team find unity on each line , when gainey is changing the lines around each game! we need to stick to a line-up that the players can get a feel for each o...

I am Calling Out Koivu and Kovalev

First if all, please do not take this as Koivu bashing. We have had enough of that. This is simply what I would say if I were Bob Gainey before the game tonite. These two guys need to be called out. Ok. We can talk all we want about Ribieor not being any good, about Zednick being fat and lazy, about Buli...

More bad news...
(Preview)
The Laffs are now a mere three points back because Kilger of all players scored on a penalty shot.
We absolutely have to win both back to back games against them because we don't want to be chasing for the last playoff spot. Those two games are 8 points in all. If we win they're done and wont...

Gainey needs to enforce a very simple game-plan!
(Preview)
Bob Gainey's style, in my opinion, has strayed from his earlier success.
What happened to always advancing the puck? What happened to a tenacious forecheck? What happened to the forwards almost beating the d-men back to help the goalie? What happened to sticking up for your m...

Gainey should try these lines!
(Preview)
He should try and out these combos-
Higgins Koivu Zednik--already together
Bulis Plekanecs Kovalev-- Scary
Ryder Ribs (a few choices) sundstrom, Perezhogin, kostytsin, sundstrom
Murray Bonk Begin
What do you all think?

7 Defensemen Tonight
(Preview)
Assuming that Boullion is out for the next 2 games and Markov is questionable, I would play with 7 defensemen tonight...
Have Markov play on the PP and a couple of odd shifts. Not more than 10 minutes. Have Simpson play 10-12 minutes also.
That would leave one less forward. Perfect! Make Kovy play e...

Markov or Sourray
(Preview)
Who do u think is the better defenseman?
i think......Sourray....he's got the shot, he's got the leadership, he's got the physical presence. I mean in the end I rather have Sourray than Markov. What do u guys think?

The Habs have proved all season that they can match up with most top teams and steal a few wins. BUT they lost all 5 games against the 2 worst teams in the Conference; Pitts and Wash.

The practice is acceptable, however we do not want to turn this into a sales-proliferation such as eBay.
That being said, there will be some rules to follow if you wish to want to se...
