You can tell everyone on this team hates each other. Whoa Gainey has his work cut out for him...I don't know whether to feel sorry for him or hate him at the momment...

What drove me insane as much as anything is that losing 6-0, and on the power play, they're still looking for the fancy play rather than shooting the damned puck. Easily the worst period of hockey I've witnessed in my nearly 40 years of watching the Habs.

At least CJ can let out a sigh of relief and know that the problem was not him. I guess some other team should jump on him in a hurry.

I agree.. these guys aren't playing for each other!

Can't blame Theo only for this one although he didn't do what elete goalies can do..shut a team down when your team needs you big time! Can't blame Huet for his goal either as it changed direction plus he's still cold going in!

I wish Gainey would just start alternating goalies and go with the hot hand! Theo lost last game so Huet should of started this one as we have no # 1 goalie at this time!

Brutal AB, I think we should do what you said awhile back and drop way down in the standings to get a higher pick. Teams need to be built on chemistry and our just isn't.

They were talking yesterday on TSN about the Rangers, Detroit and Dallas and how they have taken the approach about getting a bunch of players from the same country to make their stars feel secure and want to stay with the team. Rangers have the Czechs, Wings have the Swedes and Dallas has the Finns. Maybe we have too much of a mishmash...

John-if it helps I just spoke with CJ on the phone. He is as pissed as we are. He wants to see these guys succeed. It is really pathetic

The only thing that helps is that BG sees this pathetic excuse for a team up close now.

You said it!!!!! Gainey will have to react sooner or later! The later would be after we miss playoffs!

Try to have a goodnight's rest everyone. We all need it after this one.
