Cornwall Ontario – You know I lurve you Big Guy. I wrote that the Habs should sign you because it was a perfect marriage. I know you could make more money elsewhere,but should you? Is life all about money? You know the love you felt from Montreal fans. If you help deliver Lord Stanley’s […]
Man arrested in ongoing Fraud investigation into online ticket sales, Nigel Noel, 28, facing four charges The Toronto Police Service would like to advise the public of an arrest in an ongoing Fraud investigation. It is alleged that: – during April 2017, victims purchased hockey tickets from a person through an ad on Kijiji – […]
Cornwall Ontario – As we wait to see who gets to hoist Lord Stanley’s Cup this season (Go PK!) there’s a bit of a lull in the hockey world. The Las Vegas expansion only has so much heat story wise, free agency is looking to be a bore this year and it seems that it’s […]
Cornwall Ontario – It’s time to bring Hall of Fame Hab Legend Larry Robinson home. To his hockey home. With Michel Therrien gone and JJ Daigneault’s track record, there’s no better time or reason to not bring Big Bird back to Montreal. Playing in Montreal has challenges that Mr. Robinson clearly has the […]
Cornwall Ontario – All GM’s have their ups and down as Hab fans prepare to watch PK Subban enter the realm that is the Stanley Cup final for a team that’s reached it for the very first time ever; coincidently, the first year after trading swapping out their heart, soul, and captain, who never led […]
Cornwall Ontario – A lot of chatter about the Sens not selling out the house for the playoffs is making the rounds. Frankly I can’t blame them and feel for the thousands of loyal Ottawa Senator fans. They have a miserly owner that won’t spend to the cap, and an arena in the middle […]
CORNWALL ONTARIO – What a silly headline and silly slur of Anaheim star Centre Ryan Getzlaf. $10K for using a term that’s been glorified on TV and is not a homophobic slur. Cocksucker can mean many things. It actually is a common term, but simply has nothing to do with homophobia. There seem […]
Cornwall Ontario – I only made playoff pics for the Canadian teams in round one. I went four for five including the Rangers to defeat Montreal in six games. (I wish I was wrong on that one, but the curse of Rejean Houle may be too powerful to ever defeat) I’m not sure I’m a […]
Cornwall Ontario – I know. Montreal fans can be hyper emotional. This isn’t about that. It’s been a long two years for Hab fans. It’s been a long time since their last cup win or even a real close sniff. Montreal isn’t the worst team in the league, but they are far from […]
Cornwall Ontario – The Habs evened their series Friday night. This year there seems to be more desperation across the board to win with multiple games of 100 total hits. It’s good hockey; sometimes great. Shea Weber, even though he took a lame fighting penalty, was the monster for Montreal. Just the beating alone […]
Cornwall Ontario – It was great to see five Canadian teams make the playoffs this season after Canada was blanked last year. Sadly all five lost their opening games; some tragically, some, well hockey is a game of funny bounces and for the Leafs Friday night the puck didn’t bounce their way. The upstart Leafs […]
Cornwall Ontario – Whether for a NHL roster or a hockey pool; a good GM is always looking for a way to evaluate talent. There’s always a different nuance or perspective. Fans too argue over the value of players. Today there’s analytics, which is still in its infancy and some very strange theories are […]
Cornwall Ontario – The Ottawa Sens have been a budget team for years. They struggle to put butts in the seats out in Kanata and do a really poor job of marketing. CFN has reached out to them several times to no avail, but the squad under Guy Boucher has played inspired […]
Cornwall Ontario – Getting fired as a coach in professional sports is part of the job. This season five coaches have fallen; many with over five years of tenure. Michel Therrien’s days were numbered after rumbles of a quote condemning first year captain Max Pacioretty over the Summer. The moment in this video below spelled […]
Cornwall Ontario – Is Marc Bergevin having fun yet? After last season which many feel was a tanking more than a failure of the squad this season was supposed to be magical with Carey Price back. Price is back, but his play is a boggling hot mess. Flashes of good quality, but perhaps of […]
CORNWALL ONTARIO – Yours truly is not just a pretty face. I’m also the answer to a Habs trivia question. Name the only Habs employee to ever have something they created nominated for an Oscar. When I left the Habs after Rejean Houle cursed the team by not living up to our agreement after […]
Cornwall Ontario – I don’t know, but I could’ve sworn running up the score in pro sports was considered pretty skanky, but this season we’ve seen at least two games involving the Habs have scores of 10 goals. Last night Montreal Captain Max Pacioretty padded his stats notched four goals as les boys not only […]
CORNWALL ONTARIO – This has been an interesting season for the Montreal Canadiens. When I wrote in March that the Habs should go hard to land Alex Radulov I had a hunch he was primed to make a major contribution to the team. Combined with Carey Price’s return, and Shea Weber proving he’s not […]
