Ok boys and girls..a whole lonnggggg summer of speculation, bitching about trades (or lack of's) "If Only's" and whining is all about to end..the habs are about ready to play for real. Can't wait.

Quest for the Cup
(Preview)
More than a dozen very prominent NHLers, all 30 or older, all with at least 650 career games, begin the 2006-07 season hoping against hope that this will finally be the year their personal Cup drought ends. For most or all of them, however, it will continue. Here is the list:
• Jerem...

How Far will They Go in '07?
(Preview)
Hey, Habs friends! I'm back from a long season of playing mediocre golf -- including a great golf trip up to Canada -- and I've only read the board once in a blue moon this summer. So aside from what I've read here in the last couple days, I'm way behind on what the temperature is up there in Montreal. How wou...

Toronto Sports Network
(Preview)
Is anyone else bothered by the fact that there was so little analysis of the Ribeiro/Niinemaa trade on tsn?
If it was a veteran Defenceman going to Toronto, they would devote half the telecast to it. They would be saying about Niinemaa, "He has had a few bad years, but I think coming to toronto will hel...

HUET

In a hockey central interview, he stated he still needs to work hard to prove he's a number one goalie...."still have a lot to prove" he also commented. I like his humble attitude.

Heard on the Team 990
(Preview)
I heard on the Team 990 that Niniima will play on Friday and will be paired with Dandenault.
So, I think the lines will look something like this for the first game of the year:
Higgins Koivu Ryder
Sammy Pleks Kovy
Perez Bonk Johnson
Lats Begin Murray
Markov Komi
Souray Rivet
Niniima Da...

Predators Sign Forward Kim Staal (ring a bell?)
(Preview)
I couldn't believe it when I saw this. For years, when reading through the NHL Guide & Record Book or surfing through hockeydb.com, I always wondered, why would this guy never come over to North America?
10 years later, he's here. Too bad it wasn't a Staal from Thunder Bay, ONT we dr...

I hope BG plucks that disturber Tyson Nash off of waivers today - nice interim replacement for Begin should he have trouble coming back from injury.

This now give the Penguins 3 potenchal top line centres...

Be prepared for AB Habman to defend against any negativity towards Latendresse this season! Doesn't that put the fright in you all
Remember guys...he's a kid. Let's be patient and give him a chance to mature on and off the ice.

Trading for a number one centre
(Preview)
Just curious guys, a lot of you are saying that we should trade for a number one centre, and Souray and Aebischer seem to be the prime suggestions for trade bait. What number one centre do you guys think we could get for them?
Souray had a bad year last year, and there is an overabundance of decent starti...

As I read comments from the board I have come up with some analysis. Thats why Hab fans are the greatest in the world. Which type of fan talks this much about a preseason trade.
I like that we get rid of Ribs who we were not going to sign next year anyway. It gives r...

Bob's strategy for taking Traverse off waivers...
(Preview)
...is the same as an ancient Chinese proverb!
"Make big noise in North - attack from South"
Patrick Traverse (as much as And-o HATES this acquisition) is a "known commodity" to the Habs. He seems to accept his role as a fringe player...and he always seemed to be happy playing in Montreal.

What happens if...?
(Preview)
Ribs lands on a line with Lindros and Morrow (as has been rumored) and gets more points than 'Saint Saku'???
Would that be a little 'mud' in the 'eye' or what!
SANDBAGGERS NIGHTMARE or what!!!?

Hockeyville on TV Sunday
(Preview)
The Hockeyville special is on TV Sunday Oct 1st. Can't wait to see it. From what I read, the show is more about Salmon River (Hockeyville) than the game itself. Should be a great telecast nonetheless - in fact even better for that.
Look for great games from Higgins and Latendress...

Ribs VS Niinimaa

Ok, ive been reading my hockey preview books ( all 3 ) for the up coming season and have come to a conclusion on the trade.
First off, i am in the "This was Ribeiros break-out year " category. BUT that was BEFORE the pre-season. I saw nothing of ANY sort of chemistry between this line and even in practice,...

The NHL is reviewing Kubina's match penalty from last night's final pre...
