CFN – I’m not sure if Habs GM is really that smart or really really lucky? Either way he made a tremendous move in trading winger Jiri Sekac for Devante Smith Pelly. In the deal he not only addressed a glaring Habs need, but he also resolved an issue andContinue Reading
CFN – It’s hard to criticize a team that’s sitting in the standings where Montreal is, and that’s at the top of their division and conference with 81 points in 59 games. They’ve increased their team goal differential to +26 and have given up a league low 131 goals. That’sContinue Reading
CFN – As the Habs inch closer to the play offs they are in need to two key components if they hope to make a long run towards Lord Stanley’s Cup this season. They need the Vanek effect, but as they saw many times they need some toughness. Not aContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – What is the most friendly city in Canada? I don’t mean to tourists, but to each other as residents? What is the best place to live? What is the best place to raise a family or retire? Or start a business? I thought I’d found a prettyContinue Reading
CFN – Canadiens Hall of Famer Steve Shutt commented about the Vincent’s hockey rink when reached out to over the holidays. Shutt, who scored a long standing record 60 goals as a Left Winger for the Habs in 1977 grew up playing on his own family rink in Toronto. HeContinue Reading
CFN – It’s Christmas break for Habs fans and I thought it’d be a great time to review the squad and think about what les boys should get for Christmas. Max Pacioretty. Max is leading the team in goals and points, but intriguingly in Plus/Minus with a +17 rating.Continue Reading
CFN – Roy Berger isn’t just a pretty face. Alright, he’s never been a pretty face, but he has covered a lot of ground. He’s sharing one from his vault with our viewers. This is one of my favorite photos. Montreal, 1996, Anti-Henry Kissinger Rally. I call it, ‘ StormContinue Reading

CFN – Sadly the hockey world has lost one of it’s genuine greats and legends. Jean Béliveau was a true gentleman. Of course it’s all over the media and social media. It’s the passing of a true Canadian. I was lucky enough to work with Mr. Béliveau. Continue Reading
CFN – Marty Brodeur in a St. Louis Blues uniform? No photo shop trickery there. The NHL’s greatest goalie is on a try out with the Blues. The team historically hasn’t been afraid to go with legendary goalies with Glenn Hall and Jacques Plante suiting up for them inContinue Reading
CFN – In July 2013, a man named Marco Lavoie set out on an ambitious two-month canoe trip north of Matagami in the deep forests of the Abitibi region of Quebec. But by the end of the first month, a bear had attacked his campsite. Later, Lavoie was wounded byContinue Reading
CFN – The Gonchar trade has paid off dividends already. Still fitting in with his new squad the big Russian already has had an impact on the team playing over 15 minutes per night. The power play has caught fire which was the main goal, but he has also shownContinue Reading
CFN – It was an interesting way to notch a Gordie Howe Hat Trick as Dale Weise scored on a penalty shot as the Montreal Canadiens pounded the Boston Bruins 5-1 at the Bell Centre Thursday night. It was also the first game for new comer Sergei Gonchar. Montreal’s power play wentContinue Reading
CFN – I have to admit I’m totally impressed on Hab’s GM Marc Bergevin’s swap today of spare part Travis Moen for grizzled vet on D, Sergei Gonchar. He even got Dallas to pick up a reported 8% of Gonchar’s deal. Montreal has cap space this season. They stillContinue Reading
CFN – So I’m watching the Habs play the Sabres. The game ended in a 2-1 victory for Montreal in the Shoot out; but after the ten game mark some tendencies are starting to evolve. First off because of the addition of pieces like Manny Malhotra the team hasContinue Reading
CFN – It was one of the worst starts in Carey Price’s career as the Habs were blown right out of the rink by Steve Stamkos and the Tampa Bay Lighting Monday night 7-1. It wasn’t the final score so much as the tale of the tape with Stamkos beingContinue Reading
