The sadest part of all this is Theo will probably get the start the next game because of his over-inflated contract! Thanks again BG!

You mentioned a trade freeze! When does it start and end? Do you know the exact dates? This could put further pressure on the patient BG!

NHL will start showing on NBC starting today. That's a pretty good sign. Anyone know what Canadian carrier that might be? Global or CTV maybe?

No way were the Habs going to win last night!
The problem, as it has been for more than a decade now, pretty much starts and ends in the middle!
Anyone notice who blew the defensive zone coverage on the Av's first goal? In fact, with the exception of some crafty face-off wins in the final few min...

For those of you that watched his bash......two words......CLASS ACT!
Can't arque with his effect on his team! Great Captain! Very emotional Messier took to the rafters with many respectful words of why he got there...."When I look up at my number, it will always be symbolic of the pl...

WANTED: Players with Heart
(Preview)
Hey all
I agree with 24rings' previous post 100%, I'll take it a step farther, we should abandon the habit of acquiring european players. I'm sick and tired of seeing the Habs play without emotion. I think we have enough europeans with KOIVU, KOVALEV, ZEDNIK, BULIS, KOSTITSYN ...

Time for a poll!
(Preview)
Will Gainey make a trade this month or before trading deadline?
I ask this because it will tell us a great deal of what Gainey's expectations are! If he does this month, it is because he wants to make the playoffs and compete now!
If he waits, it's because he is rebuilding...

ANYTHING for a young Mark Messier type!

I tell ya, And-o had tears in his eyes watching the Moose trying to convey his thoughts to the NYR faithful, although that whole ceremony was 2nd rate!
And-o wholeheartedly believes that Mark Messier represents the single greatest all around leader in sports history!!!

A Modest Proposal... (long-ish)

Well, it's mid-season gut check time and the fur has flown on more than a few threads (actually, it's been flying for a while). Personally, I come to this thread for information, and, (because I live in Edmonton), a little Habs-style comradeship. I want to know the condition of Sheldon's knee. Speaki...

How many games do the Habs have to lose and prove they are disfunctional for Gainey to get his head out of his ASS!
He owes it to the fans and to his boss to make up for the bad trades he has made thus far! He is ultimately responsible for the poor product he is marketing!

Your Best Rant!
(Preview)
In the spirit of Michel Therrien and to add a bit of levity to this otherwise gloomy day, I think we should all give our best rant and tirade. Get 'er all out boys. Don't be worrying about grammerman because a good rant requires spontaneity and ya can't be worrying about spellcheck. So here comes mine:

Dagenais Sent to Hamilton
(Preview)
For those who can read it, here's the link:

From what I understand, Dagenais was placed on waivers and there were no takers, so he was sent down. Personally, I like...

I'm not saying this to get a rise but Saks was a no show! Other than the last few faceoff efforts, he did squat along with Kovi! They played no better than Ribs who is payed alot less!
Our best player tonight was Bulis. That said, we're not going to the playoffs with this roste...

Is Don Cherry right...should teams draft Nor-Am first???
(Preview)
...would it be better for the Habs to stick with North American born players (with the "tie-breaker" going to any Canadian player) in terms of the entry draft???
since clearly guys like Ryder and Higgins have been head-and-shoulders above Perezhogin, Kostitsyn, Hossa, Balej.

1) Ok, I'm sure I'll take some heat for this, but I think it is about time that the Habs abandon their French Canadian mandate. It's not that there are no great Quebec-born players in the NHL because there are numerous (we just don't have any of them!!!). These guys just seem terribly under...

Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down

Habs-Avs 1/11/06
Thumbs Up:
Huet -- kept us in the game far longer than we deserved to be. Vive la France...
Zednik -- hustlled all night, backchecked to save a point-blank shot from the slot in 1st
Koivu -- nobody worked harder, but too bad he's got no one to work with

That when I awake tomorrow, Gainey has done something to improve or even shake up this roster already!

Pathetic
(Preview)
What a great effort from our Goalie and our D wasted by a bunch of gutless forwards. Everyone of them. Bonk hasn't contributed offensively all year and now he gives the puck up in 1-1 game in the final 3 minutes. This is inexcusable. Bob Gainey needs to flippin' get off his ass...

Beginning of the season speed!
(Preview)
But now we seem to play with much much less of that speed.
Is this CJ's game plan, to trap, then attack the opposing team with a more defencive commitment to our offence?
It just seems as our offence is more concerned with stopping goals then scoring them,i haven't met a forward who didn't want to sco...
