When I saw the heading for this posting, I thought it was going to be somebody taking Cube to task for allowing the third and tieing goal. He was totally turned around on that play and showed why having a little puke (puny stinker, whatever you want to call him) on D can be a problem. I know a lot of people are glad to see Bouillon back because he's gutsy, plays with heart, isn't afraid to check, is a good passer, etc. And others will say he's still rusty after being out for so many games. But as much as I like Cube's spunk, I always dread it when he's on the ice and the puck's in the Habs zone.

That goal hurt big time and it can be laid squarely at his feet. And I have no doubt that being the kind of man he is, he'd totally agree.

I hope he and the other defensemen can get their act together before they go to Raleigh. I also hope that BG will stop playing head games with our goalies and get behind Huet they way the whole city of Montreal has. if he wasn't sharp tonight vs. NJ Gainey has no one to blame but himself.

The first two periods showed what the boys can do when they skate. I'd say that while we're lucky to be in the playoffs, we've also shown that at times we can play with anybody.
