I wouldn’t mind seeing Chara meet his match but I’m not sure any of the Habs could pull it off. Komisarak maybe, but Chara is a monster!

I’ve got high hopes for tonight’s game – let’s go Habs!

Well i think Coach Carbenau scratching Mathew Dandenault is the most stupid thing he has done to date Mathew put the Bruins to sleep last time.Now Mathew is not thinking about trade but hes pissed.

Good times! Wish I could see it, but alls I got is fuzzy CBC. Glad that Ryder got one and the Kostitsyn brothers are awesome.

As I write this I see that Lapierre scored with 2 seconds left! Sweet.

Okay my #1 pet peeve, and this is not directed at you specifically habsofthefuture, but I’m sick of people who have their opinion criticized getting all shrill about ‘their right to express their own opinion’. No kidding! We all know that we can all express our own opinion, we live in a free country, but if your going to post here don’t get all pissy about people calling your idea stupid, because guess what? that’s THEIR OPINION! So go ahead and trash what I say, I trash what people say all the time, that’s what makes this a fan’s forum, and by the way let’s lighten up tonight, we’re whipping the BROOONS

Holy s#!t we are getting spanked by y’all!!! Spanked! If I didn’t need to watch for a ex-pat Habs fan who is living across the pond; I would be curled up in the fetal position whimpering. Oh wait I am doing that right now…

… its nice that the scoring has been spread around as well

Great game. It was nice to see So many players playing well, especially Ryder (it might get his market value up), Kovalev, A. Kostitsyn, Begin, Lapiere and Komisarek. I just hope this doesn’t get people thinking Ryder should stick around, it’s too late for a soon to be UFA. So, overall I was surprised how well they came out to start the game and that they played 60 minutes of hockey. The only negative for me was that even when the team played so great and everyone was flying, Koivu still seemed lost and disinterested.

Listen Habs BRO’s, you want to see Koivu play with fire ,eh, well give he and Higgins a spark plug kind of player that’s consistent and watch what happens, just imagine The Habs with a real first line that produces like a first line should and the Kovi 2nd line the way it is and if Huet can just stay like the way he’s been the last couple of games,well…LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!

Awesome game, I love seeing everyone come together like that!

sellanne??????????

Ah I love the smell of a burning bruin in the morning it smells of VICTORY.

Stu Dude. That’s a bit harsh there. Don’t wish that on anyone Dude.

If the Lines would have to change again I would try this. Koivu/and the 2 Kostisyn’s. Plakanex/Kovalev/Higgins. Latendresse/Lapierre/Ryder. And whom ever is in the line up on the 4th line. That would be the best that I can see. The 2 brothers are amazing together. And Higgings would produce again with Kovalev and Thomas.

The money probably ain’t an issues, but I seriously doubt that he would come to Montreal.

“DID U KNOW”

That The hammer(5.5mill) is the second highest paid guy on our team Next to Markov(5.75),did u know Brian(2mill) slowlinski makes more than Thomas Plekanec(1.4Mill) because i didnt.LOL Did u know that kyle Chipchura makes twice as much as Maxim lapiere, a hundred thousand more than Carey Price and three hundred thousand more than Andrei Kostityn.I had no idea that these guys were getting paid this much to play average hockey.Exempt Markov and Plekanec they set the level of hockey MONTREAL should be playing all the time.

GO HABS GO KICK PITSBURG BUT

PS:Daryl Sutter GM of the flames is at tonights game.

Weird…

Donnie, Carbo was more than patient enough with Ryder. He was on one of the top two units most of the time that he was playing like ****. I hope Ryder plays great now too, but he won’t re-sign in Montreal, so his time in Montreal should end before the trade deadline.

Why do you miss Shelly, he’s doing nothing in Edmonton but being injure and cashing out is pay checks.

If he was with us he would be awesome

I agree Barrie. I can’t see Ryder signing here again next year. The only reason, my guess is, that he’s back on that line is to showcase him to other teams to try and get something for him before the deadline. It’s a shame too….I like Ryder.
The point I was making was the amount of time he’s getting as compared to Koivu. Koivu’s not playing like **** ? This is the most uneffective I have ever seen him play. He’s invisible every game, not producing any points, and is a nonfactor almost every game….yet, he still gets all this time. As a matter of fact, Koivu is still playing like **** while getting all the advantages of playing with top players, and getting PP and PK time….Ryder has been doing it for half the season so far on a bottom line, playing with no one, or sitting in the pressbox with no where close to the special teams time the captain is getting.
Ryder is playing like ****, but everfyone seems to forget how much of a let down Koivu’s been also. I want Ryder to get traded and hope our Habs get someone to really help this squad while letting Ryder blossom somewhere else…this guys career is far from over…with the right centerman he’s got more than 30 a year in his stick.
I also like Koivu, but its time to be realistic and call a spade a spade. He’s really not helping the effort on the ice, moreso this year than other years. How about sticking him on the fourth line with Smolinski and see if he’s got enough skills to help out defensively, cuz offensively he’s not up to the challenge no matter what amount of ice-time he’s getting or who he’s playing with.
On another note…we got Jersey tonight. Gotta solve the Brodeur puzzle tonight. Those are big points up for grabs, and they’re only getting bigger as the season goes on. Lets go boys, pull together, make out its Boston we’re playing here, and bury the Devs. GO HABS GO !!!
