Well Sam, if you’re stupid enough ( like me ) to read some of the dribble from hockeybuzz, there appears to be a rumor floating regarding Halak , Ryder and Kostytsin to Tampa for Richards and Roy.If you follow their logic they say that Murray being waived was to clear a spot and some room ( cap).After all the dust settles that would leave the habs about 200k under the ceiling. Can’t see this myself, nor would I want to absorb Richards salary.

remember, you asked…..I’m just the messenger.

A little poem I found from a Bruins fan:

Hockey God Hatred

Man, I hate the Habs
And all of their supporters
I dislike them so much
I even hate their reporters

And for some strange reason
They have the Hockey God’s love
More than any other team
Far and above

They get all of the bounces
The calls and all of the luck
Sometimes they win games
When they don’t even touch the puck

For the Bruins on the other hand
It goes the other way
They lose way too many games
When they dominate the play

So when the Bruins play the Habs
We’re doomed from the start
As always, I have pre-game confidence
And then it gets torn apart

As usual, we out work them,
Out chance them, out hit
And the end result doesn’t change
Not one little bit

I find myself saying “WHY WHY WHY”
The Nancy Kerrigan way
I’m not looking forward
To facing the Hab fans the next day

My wife says “Get over it, it’s just a game.
It doesn’t matter at all”
And I say “It’s never JUST A GAME
When we play MONTREAL!”

I grab my remote
And take aim for the TV
I focus on the Plasma
And wonder how stupid can I be
I opt for a couch pillow
And throw it against the wall
But that doesn’t make me feel better
Not a touch, not at all

I get so freakin’ angry
My face turns beat red
Sleep is a write-off
There’s no way I can go to bed

Why do I feel this way
Why does it make me so mad
Because I hate the Montreal Canadiens
Does that make me so bad?

For some reasons unknown
The Hockey God is on Montreal’s side
No matter how much I’ve prayed
No matter how much I’ve cried

Oh Hockey God PLEASE
Please give us a break
Please lift your Bruin’s curse
Tell us what it will take

We as Bruins fans will do anything
Anything at all
But please don’t ask us
To cheer for Montreal

We’ll even disown Don Cherry
He’ll have no connection with us
We’ll send him away
On the Maple Leaf bus

We know he was the coach when this started
The Montreal Boston curse that is
We’ll fight with visors
To become enemies of his

We’ll get cocky and taunt
Each and every day
We’ll fake injuries and dive
The Canadiens way

Please keep this in mind
Our chins will be up
We ask “Please in this lifetime
Can we have a sniff of the Cup?”

I thought Plekanec put on a good move to score the 2nd goal. He works well with Kovalev, but unfortunately they’re a linemate. It’s not Kostityn. He does nothing for that line. If we could get 2 more snipers, what a difference that would make. It’s koivu, Higgins and ? nobody! 2nd line is Kovalev, Plekanec and ? nobody! 3rd line always changes so it’s too hard to figure out. But Gainey get 2 more snipers for the top 2 lines, and then we’ll have some offence, but not until then. Are you listening Gainey? get rid of the deadwood-Latendresse and Ryder, please!

huet and price are the best 1 2 goalie tandom in the league by far!
nice goal by Plekanec he should have had 2 but kovalev tipped it in right before it went in, he should have let it go in but whatever!

Habfan: when I was talking about Kostistyn not doing alot, I meant as far as his goal production. He’s not scoring any goals, and we need goals from him because we don’t have enough scorers on this team. We need scorers on 2 lines, and Ryder has really crapped out. Did you see when he fanned on a shot in the 1st period? He was in the slot, great chance to score, and totally screwed up! He must be traded and get a sniper in return, in order for this team to have a chance of making the playoffs. If we could get 2 more scorers, we would definitely make the playoffs! Gainey has his work cut out for him.

I was happy with the win, but they will be in real tough against the Senators Saturday. The Sens finally lost last night but they will be motivated against the Habs. Did you guys read on TSN where they were saying that Ottawa’s projected record will be 71-11 or something like that, and they think they will be better than the 1976/77 Habs. They do not stand a chance against that team, no one does and some older fans know what I am talking about. Back then, regular season games did not go into overtime when they were tied after 3 periods and there was no shootout either. There is no comparing this years Senators to that years Habs. That teams stands head and shoulders above any other team out there. Anyways, if they really want to compare this Ottawa team to that legendary Habs team, then the Sens need to win the cup this year to even be mentioned in the same breath. It really pissed me off tha some people are already comparing them to the greatest team of all-time, the Montreal Canadiens!!! Sens suck!

TRADE RYDER TO THE Blackhawks for Martin Havlat

Ryder is playing so bad that its ******** his linemates and that is as damaging as it could get.We have got enough hungry players in bulldog land that would do a better job than Ryder at this point and help Higgins and koivu out,and in the mean time a guy like Havlat could healup nicely. He would be an excellent addition as the playoffs near.Remember thats our no.1 line and its only got 2 forwards.

our second line is our first line in everything but name at this point. If the habs are down by one, which line do you think going to be on the ice to score? line “2″
