CFN – Sens vs Habs for round one of the play offs. This season it’s great to see so many Canadian teams making the second season, but tragically there are two series that will knock out two of our teams. Montreal, while finishing first is vulnerable. The team nabbed DevanteContinue Reading
CFN – The Hamburglar notched another win as Ottawa is becoming one of the few good feeling stories of this 2014/15 NHL Season or as many are staring to call it; “The Year of the Tank”. The Sens are now 1 point behind Boston for the last Wild Card spotContinue Reading
CFN – Will the Price be right for Hab fans as the end of the regular season draws to a close? Last year Montreal nearly made it to Lord Stanley’s cup only to be foiled by the NY Rangers after Chris Kreider skated into the goalie knocking him out forContinue 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
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 – 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
CFN – The buzz is that Montreal and All Time Goalie Marty Brodeur are sniffing each other’s hind quarters. The play, if the Benjamins are right (about $1M for 1 year; maybe a bonus for each round of the play offs the team makes) makes a lot of senseContinue Reading
CFN – Early media rumbles is that 36 year old Andrei Markov is asking $6M for 3 years from the Habs which begs the question of how much Matt Niskanen would cost Marc Bergevin if he’s allowed to go UFA? Niskanen is younger; had about the same amount of points,Continue Reading
CFN – Dustin Tokarski got more than the win last night as he and the Habs faced elimination on home ice and fought through for a 7-4 win. It was a weird and wacky game with Rangers star goalie “King” Henrik Lundqvist being chased from the net and Rene Bourque,Continue Reading
CFN – Habs goalie absolutely stole game three in their series vs the Rangers in NY last night as Montreal got an over time goal by Alex Galchenyuk for a 3-2 win. Montreal played a brutal game being drastically out shot and out played in spite of being behind inContinue Reading
