13 games on the schedule today,but all eyes in Montreal and Ottawa will be on Alex Kovalev and how he does in his first game against the Habs. Kovalev caused controversy during the exhibition season when he was quoted wanting to return to Montreal to end his career. It’s funnyContinue Reading
Do the Montreal Canadiens really need to beat the Leafs at losing? The Habs dropped their home opener 3-2 last night. I turned off my tv after watching the team allow an end to end rush that resulted in a goal being deflected off of a Hab skitter by CareyContinue Reading
Busy for a Monday in Hockey Land. The Leafs continue their losing ways as the New York Rangers bagged them 7-2. That 1st Round pick they gave up for Kessel is starting to look awfully good for Boston. The Senators fell 4-1 to Pittsburgh while Edmonton drilled Nashville 6-1 withContinue Reading
Montreal lost another game, this time to Edmonton 3-2; they came out fighting outshooting the Oilers 35-19 only to see Edmonton score the 1st goal which they never rallied from. Roman Hamrlik and Brian Gionta scored. Carey Price collected the loss. The Sens doubled Atlanta 4-2. Alex “Big Dawg” Kovalev Continue Reading
Getting two wins in the bank probably was the best of all starts for Jacques Martin and the Montreal Canadiens. The two losses on the Western swing; especially last nights 7-1 beating by Vancouver are the kind of performances that cost people jobs. The Habs were actually worse last nightContinue Reading
Sometimes the score of a game can be deceptive. Last night was one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen a Habs team offer up. It’s awfully hard to score when you spend more time in your end of the rink than the oppositions so I give the Habs creditContinue Reading
That greedy Dominic Moore turned down a lot of money from the Leafs only to get a 1 year minimum wage gig with Florida. Hope that teaches a few hockey players and their agents a lesson in the future. This year seems to be full of examples of players overpricingContinue Reading
S C O R E S Wow, 30 teams 15 games, a whole lot of Hockey. It’s Saturday night in Canada! The Habs gutted out a 2-1 win over Buffalo. In spite of missing Andrei Markov goals by Travis Moen and Brian Gionta were all Carey Price needed to getContinue Reading
All 30 teams play tonight. That’s a whole lot of hockey. Montreal Canadiens D man Andrei Markov will be out for at least 3 months after a tendon injury in a collision with Carey Price in the Habs season opener against the Leafs. Rumblings are that Patrice Brisebois will beContinue Reading

So much to write so little coffee…. Judge Redfield T Baum decided not to award the Phoenix Coyotes to either the NHL or Jim Balsillie. Wild huh? L I N K “Balsillie said he would not appeal the decision. In a statement, Balsillie said, “nobody can deny that we areContinue Reading
Is Jonas Gustavsson stealing the starters job from Vesa Toskala? That’s the buzz in Leaf Land. Ya never know, but the rookie has put on a show. I think Brian Burke wants to start with Toskala and have him play well enough to be traded. Mats Sundin to retire forContinue Reading
Dontcha love it when tough guys score? You know that potting a NHL goal means a whole lot to them; even in pre-season. Greg Stewart scored the game winner for Montreal in their 3-2 win over the Sabres. Ryan O’byrne put on the nasty and Carey Price kept it together. Continue Reading
Not so busy night as Opening Day approaches. Theo Fleury was cut by the Calgary Flames. No announcement yet as to whether he hangs on or retires. I have a hunch he’s going to sign up somewhere. The Leafs Nazem Kadri scored another goal. The 18 year old wants toContinue Reading
L I N K Wayne Gretzky has officially retired. “I often said it was the greatest honour and privilege I could imagine to be able to play in the National Hockey League. I feel the same way about being an NHL coach. I’ve loved the four years I spent coachingContinue Reading
I smell a deal. Jim Balsillie is inching closer to getting his team to Hamilton. First off he has to get a team and he took another step closer by offering to keep the Coyotes in Phoenix for this season. Hey Phoenix gets a years rent and maybe a bonusContinue Reading
Two goals from Brian Gionta, one from Scott Gomez and for those wacky Le Journal guys a Guillaume Latendresse goal as well were enough for the Habs to beat the defending Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3! Carey Price was good enough to get the win and the talk showsContinue Reading
