point of view
(Preview)
Montreal has suprised a lot of people this year. Mainly becuase of the Rookies, Markov and Koivu. But I see problems ahead unless these things are addressed:
1.Theo. Can't live with him; can't live without him. He has been outplayed on most nights but Montreal has been that good so has been winning d...

Finding ways to win or lose
(Preview)
The Habs this year have been finding ways to win games. Last night (as in the past few seasons) they found a way to lose. It was a combination of
(1) being out-goaltended when it counted,
(2) a very lucky goal by the Laffs in the dying minutes,
(3) too many goal posts (including Begin'...

Kery Fraser
(Preview)
Is by far the worst ref in the NHL. He's not biased hes just dumb. he makes some questiable calls then when Mario gets a stick in the face from Dandy he doesn't call anything. Then other times he doesn't make any calls on interfernce and slashing and hooking thats blatent. Then Begin hits Ta...

A coachs' perspective on too many men on the ice.
(Preview)
I know that ultimately the coach is responsible when it comes to a too many men on the ice penalty and I am sure CJ is taking full responsibility for these calls. However, as a coach, let me tell you how changes on the fly go from my perspective. If your line is up next you know which player you are going on for...

Cardiac kids no more
(Preview)
Well looks like the Habs luck may have shifted. The last two games we have lost against the Pens and now the Leafs are games that would have gone our way when luck was on our side. We didn't deserve to win some of the games we won at the beginning of the year and now we are losing these games by 1 goal.
All is no...

visors
(Preview)
After seeing Dandenault's slash on Mario, accidental though it was, I am simply at a loss for why players continue to go without visors. There seems to be a rash of eye injuries (Sundin is lucky to still have his sight). It's time for the league to enforce this rule for all new players no exceptions.:ide...

NJ back winning with Brodeur
(Preview)
Back to back wins for NJ. Brodeur is back. It's only against Washington but Brodeur is always tuff against the Habs.

Who should our shootout shooters be?
(Preview)
It was an historic moment for sure -- the first shootout in Hab history. I figured it would be Kovalev, Koivu and Zednik -- or maybe Ribeiro -- but CJ surprised me. I like the way Perezhogin plays and wish he got a little more ice time, so I can't take issue with that call. But it made me wonder how the shooter...

Hey, my name is Nick Braga - I am the son of "davidb." I have only been a habs fan (and a hockey fan) since 2000. I just wanted to let everyone know that I am very honored to be a habs fan and I am excited to be a part of this message board.
The Montreal Canadiens will win big this year. I can sense it. Well, thats...

Contraction?
(Preview)
As fast and as fun as it has been so far this year, imagine if the league shed a couple of teams (or more) which would up the overall standard of play.
But which two (or more) would go, if any?

Begin's Hit
(Preview)
I missed the first two periods and the better than half of the third. I never did see Begin's hit during the broadcast. I saw a clip on TSN's highlights, but it was less than brief. Dirty or clean? I have always thought that he walked that fine line between legal hits and penalt...

Bonk-ers

Well, the Big Stud Centreman was out for five games, and the Habs won them all. Then he returns and we lose (sort of) - and who missed a million scoring chances? The Big Stud himself. Had he found the twines early on, the Habs would have won this one. To me, he's a huge disappoint...

Credit the Penguins!
(Preview)
Pittsburgh absolutely nullified our top line.
In fact, Koivu (for example) didn't even record a shot in over 20 minutes of icetime...including loads of powerplay time! (A thousand pardons please for stating a negative fact about Saint Saku)
Also, keep in mind that...

A rehash of a few different posts!
(Preview)
Firstly, I was worried when Magic Mario took a stick in the eye after Dadenault's follow through got him. I was hoping he would be OK as I'm sure he layed there scared for his vision. This was missed by Fraser and then he made it up later by giving Begin a game for his clean hit. I have to admit th...

(Preview)
Its never to early to start talking about a game! Right?
I don't know about this one. I am not familiar with the way that the Pengiuns have been playing. Should be a good one.
As always, I would like to see Kovy and Souray step up.
