CFN – So as we approach the half way mark of the NHL season the Habs are in a strange position. The odds of them making the play offs are not terribly good right now. The odds of this team drinking from Lord Stanley’s Cup are nearContinue Reading

Warriors win Stanley Cups and Championships; not Primadona’s generally. Players that go that extra mile under the hardest extremes. Hockey has itsContinue Reading
CFN – I like Ted Bird; always have. Today he wrote about why Jacques Martin should be fired and probably never have been hired by the Habs going as far as to suggest the kindly coach is “out to lunch” . When Bob Gainey took the reins of thisContinue Reading

CFN – So far the firing the coach in favor of the primadonna Hockey star hasn’t worked out terribly well. Game one for coaches Hunter and Muller resulted in losses and in Anaheim rumors are running amok at Bobby Ryan being moved or……a firing of the coach. Washington has goneContinue Reading
