Nilsey- I like Crosby as much as you do but he has got to stop with the acting classes! Everytime a stick comes near his head it snaps back as if he has been shot with a cannon! I have seen him do this at least 5 times this year and pretty soon the refs are not going to buy what he is selling. Show some class Sydney. You do not need to be doing that.

On another note. if we had a goalie tonite we would be up 4-1. Win or lose this team, aside from Theo, has shown up to play, all 4 lines for a change. Apparently the message has been received.

I don't have the game on my TV, but if the boys are putting an effort out, then I'll be happy - win or tie.

Time for the Special K line to step up. They are weaving a lot of magic, but it hasn't turned into any goals. Also, I am wondering if Bonk should have stayed on IR a bit longer... he is just not playing well. BTW, has Fleury had as much good luck as Theo had bad luck to go with his bad goaltending?

P.S. I have never seen a team miss so many open nets as the Pens did at the end.

Yeah, Habs are definitely in big trouble.

Thank God for small mercies.

By the way, Dave, how's the (banged-up) long arm of the law doing these days? Recovering OK?

Not healing so well. He said 3-4 more months. Gee , at this rate I may be able to be here for the playoffs , if we make it. Thanks for asking Ive been home since April My wife says I am driving her crazy

Crosby aside, this Michel Ouellet has been hotter than a pistol of late. Where'd he come from, and why isn't he playing for us?

Well, if misery loves company, you'll be happy to know that I just found out this afternoon that a dream job I've been pursuing for two months will not be going to moi *. I, and you, like the Habs, will have to keep on plugging away, and eventually our fortunes will turn for the better.

* On the other hand (speaking of dream jobs), I saw that lady today whose brother-in-law is the CFO of the Habs. I didn't get to ask her if he was "on the ledge" these days, with the way his Habs are going.

This team is gutless. No heart, no sack. I'm just so fed up...Don't know whether to be embarrassed or sickened.

Gainey has done a nice job icing the smallest and softest team in the league. A tired Pitt team wiht NINE rookies in the lineup walks all over the Habs in their own rink?

Unforgiveable.

Theodore is an overrated joke. Let him hold out, usless petty criminal.

When I say my nightly prayers I have been praying to stop the Floods, Fires, Tornados, Earthquakes, Mudslides, Famines, sickness all around the world and yes than AndO lands a job

Too bad your first post has to be so depressing, habnot! It can only get better from here - it has to!

I was so happy at the start of the year, with the firewagon hockey, an enforcer around, and a semblance of defense...sadly, theodore has turned out to be a fraud...I was kinda hoping getting left off the Olympic team would spark him, but he continues to steal a paycheck.

Are they new southern expansion teams? Seriously, though, didn't realize you were as banged up as you are. Here's hoping you'll be all better to raise a glass to a playoff-bound habs!
