JULY 25, 2021 – The ultimate goal in any professional team sport at the highest level is ultimate victory. The Habs had a taste this year by fumbling into the final before being blown out of the water by the defending Champs. Now with word that Shea Weber may be done, along with other team […]
July 8, 2021 – What a wild ride this season has been. There’s been some good, but more bad ultimately. The Free Agent pick ups worked out really well. Sadly, some of those character guys that GM Marc Bergevin built this time around kinda punked out. This edition of the Habs reminds me of the […]
I know it’s early and with parity anything can happen, but……I’m a numbers guy. Montreal sadly is in the usual spot where they get off to an early jump because big bruisers ease into the season more than wee quick scamps. Things tighten up; unless your the Habs D. Could it all be because “Jo” […]
It’s been an interesting year. It’s been a weird year. With very low expectations les boys are firmly in a playoff spot, even if it’s just a wild card one. Carey decided to be Carey once his bud Captain Shea Weber was back and Tie Domi has been a refreshing player to watch. Now this […]
Cornwall Ontario – It’s going to be a sad season in Montreal. Like many others I have no idea why such a legendary team has run itself into the ground. The team just named Shea Weber Captain. Honestly they should be trying to salvage value and be looking to move him. Or then perhaps they […]
Cornwall Ontario – Oddly enough this will go down as one of Hab GM Marc Bergevin’s best trades. It wasn’t a great trade, and barely was a good trade as the team diminished its asset as it seems bent on doing. Will they be trashing Carey Price and his near untradeable contract next if the […]
Cornwall Ontario – Yes, it’s that time! Sadly the Habs didn’t make the playoffs because GM Marc Bergevin totally blew it this season and it seems that owner Geoff Molson might actually let him have a seventh kick at the can which is way too Rejean Houle scary. But I digress. The Leafs and Jets […]
Cornwall Ontario – With the Habs falling off the edge of bubble and the team showing no signs of progress it looks like owner Geoff Molson is considering some moves. When rumor sites start talking about certain types of rumors that means a name is in play. Multiple sites have mentioned Pacioretty. If the Habs […]
Cornwall Ontario – The Christmas break sadly is the funeral song for les boys this season. The injury to Shea Weber didn’t do it. The drama that is Carey Price actually wasn’t either. It was owner Geoff Molson signing off on the strange Rejean Houle type management of his hand picked GM Marc Bergevin. […]
Cornwall Ontario – Short of pulling a rabbit out of his hat and using some of that $8M in cap space, Habs GM Marc Bergevin is in a tricky position that might see him lose his job. After consistently overpaying for less valuable assets the Habs are in a position of weakness and a clear […]
Cornwall Ontario – It’s been a disastrous two years for Habs GM Marc Bergevin. When owner Geoff Molson fires him this season he won’t be able to say that he wasn’t given every opportunity to win in Montreal. Five seasons with no true improvement in the roster during the cap era is not good for […]
Cornwall Ontario – Well Habs GM Marc Bergevin signed his centre. Peter Holland. I know. A Coyote cast off. Now this is Sunday July 2 at 10:30 AM and it’s still early days, but Mr. Bergevin’s signing of Karl Alzner also was not a sign to get excited about. Alzner’s a decent enough 4th or […]
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 – 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 – 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 – 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 – 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 […]
