Imagine if he could play with a player like Heatley !! It would be a nex team perspective and no one here would complain about the captain... You guys are right about Saku.

Lets face it, if the top guy on your team is averaging about 70 points a season, thats just not enough production. The problem then, is goals, we're not scoring enough. I don't know, maybe the Habs just haven't found the right player to combine and gel with Koivu to up the production....but when your teams "star" can go cold for 10 games, then have 2 good games, then go cold for another 6 or 8, thats just not enough consistency or production....and thats what Koivu's season have been like since he's got there. I like the guy, he's a great leader and captain, and he's loved by all the Habs faithful...all I'm saying is that he's gotta start doin it on the ice with his stick, instead of just in the dressing room with his attitude...can anyone really argue with that? Let's go Saku !!!

This guy is a warrior. Not only is he a class act, but he was able to come back from that eye injury and from cancer. He did all this and played pretty well both times! I remember seeing his triumphant return that playoff series against Boston - (after recovering from cancer) and watching him kick butt! Living in Toronto, I'm always hearing Don Cherry talk about the rough and tough good ole' Canadian boys. Non of whom have anything on this team's captain. Yes, there are problems with this team, but Koivu's not one of them. I can understand people being frustrated with this team, but I can’t take people bashing Koivu.

Isn't it time to get a star there again? Don't get me wrong....I'm a huge Habs fan...been so all my life....but people, wheres the glimmer of hope for us diehards.....wheres the player or two that make us fans say "ok, thats a good start"? Smolinski, Hamrlik, and Brisebois.....3 players out of their prime, AND who weren't really much in their prime. So essentially what we have now in Montreal is the same team as last season...the same team who couldn't make the playoffs then, and subtract Souray's 20 plus goals this year. Really, it's enough emphasis on "players who are good in the dressing room"....how about we try to get some players who are good on the ice...wins games and all that jazz. I really hope I eat my words and our beloved Habs have a great season...but of course, that would mean a team of average players geling like they did in 93, and thats a chance in a million in todays game. Sure the only player scoring any goals (Ryder), again this year is the last player signed AND it took going to arbitration to do so. Doesn't something seem wrong with that? Whats the plan here...."we dont need goals because we're gonna try to win all our games 1-0 and 2-1 with solid D and top-notch goaltending"? Not gonna happen....cuz we don't have either. I know it's a slow process of building, but it has been years now, very slow and seemingly still no building. I really can't see any of these 3 acquisitions making any kind of impact on this years team, not where they need it anyway. I guess we're still supposed to be waiting for the big breakout of Koivu...how many years has he been there now anyways? Whats going on in Montreal? Isn’t it time to get a star there again?

He was driving Grande-Rivieres' mayors's motorcycle and got into an accident. It is believed he became a very good friend with the mayor after the accident. He showed some class by promising him to fix his bike and buying him a new one!!!! I would love to see him show some class on ice!!! *************************BUZZ**********************************
