What do you think of this Theo trade Rumor?
(Preview)
From the Edmonton Sun: RW Georges Laraque, G Ty Conklin and top forward prospect Robbie Schremp going to Montreal for goalie Jose Theodore.
First, can someone say if this would help us? Second, why wouldn't we do it? Looks pretty good to me. Being a Habs fan (a not necessarily a players fan) anythi...

Increase in player movement yesterday...

...are these few minor trades "tremors" or "ripples"???
I can't help but wonder what teams like Jersey and Philly are going to do in order to meet the salary cap requirements!!!
...and since teams like Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston & St.Louis are not even close to competing for a playo...

Strange Stat!
(Preview)
While browsing NHL.com and looking at team stats, I note that the Habs are 10th overall in the league in power play %. Not bad. Then I sorted it by Home % versus Away %, and this is what I found: the Habs are:
Third best in the NHL in Home %
- and -
Third worst in the NHL in Away %

Sundin and the Leafs
(Preview)
As much as I hate Mats Sundin and the Toronto Maple Leafs, I have to commend him for his comments on TSN last night. The team is mirred in a 3 game slump and, like this board when things are going badly, the Leafs fans are getting restless calling for everything from a coaching change to major trades. This i...

Another call for other format
(closed)

With all that is going on in this board, it is really hard to keep up some times. There are often multiple thread of the same topic. I still believe that we could use a good split up of topics. Simply:
Rumors and Trades
Game Day - prognostications and observations

Interview with Mathew Dandenault
(Preview)
Listening to the Calgary 590 Fan and after watching the game live in Calgary , I 'd have to say I agree with what Dandenault had to say...
Dandenalut indicated that he was happy to playing in Montreal but that the one thing he found different was the defencemen are not encouraged to skate with th...

Pens
(Preview)
Does anyone know how much back pay the Pens started out owing Mario? Another way to ask..How much Mario originally has invested in the Pens as far as percentage?
I have a feeling Mario could end his ownership with a big jack pot! I heard that they want above 200 000 000 for the team!...

So i've been readin up on what everyone thought on lastnights game, ane here's what i seen, and i was also at the game lastnight.
>Souray, good fight, but we should have a forward to stick up for us like that, not using a guy who was probably going to get 20-24 minutes of playing time lastnight due to M...

Anyone watch this on Sportsnet?
(Preview)
Ryan Walter mentioned that Koivu was playing with no energy and not effective!
It sure looked like he was skating through water! Is Gainey working him too hard at?
And-o, you mentioned early on that by seasons end Bonk would take over top centerman duties and you took alot of f...

We need some spark
(Preview)
It seems we don't have those key contributors we had last time there was a season. We had Souray who was on fire, Ryder who was leading the rookies, Ribs was getting points for us... This year we can pretty much say that no one has stepped up their game. Most players have basically played average or less th...

inconsistency
(Preview)
Maybe the biggest problem this season, and for the last decade...too much inconsistency.
The players who seem to be picking it up now were a joke for long stretches:
Ribeiro, Bonk, Souray, even Streit is picking it up, Bulis (although he was ok in the first quarter of the season, just not scoring)...

Did they even watch the game?

Right Direction
(Preview)
No question that the team is heading in the right direction even after a loss last night. A couple weeks ago we would have lost that game 6-1. I do see a better overall effort out there. I am worried about Saks as he looks tired the last few games. As much as I have criticized Bonkers, I thought he play...

There really is no excuse for Gainey not addressing a few of the Habs needs!!!

New Jersey has been soooo close to being over the salary cap several times this season…why not lighten their load with a smallish prospect for Victor Kozlov…and his $2.5’ish million per season!?!?!?!? Honestly, these guys are harboring Brad Ference in the minors...who would EASILY qualif...

Last Night.
(Preview)
That was a total lack of team effort last night. 18 shots isn't going to cut it and at times they just look disinterested. They had 1/2 the game to come back last night and did NOTHING. Calgary likes to put the seatbelt on the game and the Habs let them slow it down to a crawl. I was...
