It's not just you; there was an earlier thread about exactly that (I'd go look for it, but there have been so many in the last 24 hours, it would take me all night). Many of us shared that thought.

I wonder if Mario or Barry could get a message to Saku and his family about our get well wishes and prayers for Sak from GOHABS.COM?

Or whoever it was (Jay?) who had a contact at the hospital. Great idea, John!

Yes, excellent idea John, maybe an e-get well card of sorts!

I hope the habs wear koivu's number on the back of their helmets to show their thoughts and prayers are with him. Is it me but I am a little upset that Gainey did not show any emotion towards the refs with the no call. I know its not his style but stick up for your captain at least. Just my two cents Get well soon Saku!!

That's GAINEY, a calm demeaner, I think if he were to complain about the refs. it would just stir the pot. there are lots of calls missed by the refs.against the habs and for them,it's just that this was a serious one ,to bad though "GO HABS GO"

I unfortunately don't have a contact at the hospital. My contact in the Habs organization is keeping me posted on whats happening, but I will probably hear the news first from TV or here rather than from him since he I am not top priority to him lol

I agree Gainey should have gotten upset but I don't think Koivu would have cared either way. As long as people we're worried about him, I'm sure that's all that mattered. He knows that sh!t happens, it all part of the game & that Gainey is as cool as a cucumber.

Wouldn't expect a different reaction from Bob. Although, I think there will come a day where he will fly off the handle........ & I'll probably drop of a heart attack.

i just hope gainey let someone know that the reffing, at the very least in the last game , was totaly unacceptable . im not complaining about our calls but moreso their non calls . there is noway in hell they committed only 3 penalties last game .
