Hey Senet, no problem, after I read it again I can see how it could have misunderstood, after all it’s so hard to find any negative comments about was supposed to have been (in most “expert” opinions)a non playoff team.
Why can’t we all just take this for what it is, a rebuilding process that has gone very,very right with a very bright future to look forward to.
cup no cup, I don’t care it has been a real pleasure to watch this team for me
since I was only 8 years old.
About that time my interest in hockey began, one year my dad thought it would be neat to take me to an NHL game. Most of my uncles etc. including my dad were Leafs fans, I didn’t really know the difference but just to be rebellious I picked the Flyers. I think it had to be 78 or so, dad takes me to Vancouver to see the Habs and Nucks, being a BC boy I should have been cheering for Van,but in the pre-game skate (we had awesome seats, rink level)Lafleur skates by and winks, coulda been at the hottie behind me , maybe something in his eye, who knows
but at 8 years old he winked at ME. From that point on I was habs encyclopedia.
I was an awkward loner as a youngster, it was just me and my beloved habs, of course at the peak of the dynasty.I grew out of my awkward loner stage, but the kid that Lafleur winked has always been in me, people ask me if I’m a hockey fan, I say no I’m a habs fan, there is no hockey if Montreal isn’t playing…
HabsLoseAgain : He is a ufa if I am not mistaken. Seems to be having a good playoff so far.
HabsLoseAgain : Wonder if marc bergevin with his old Chicago ties might be able to bring bickell on board. He would be just what the habs are looking for imo
HabsLoseAgain : Not sure if this has been discussed already but what does everyone think of roland melanson coming out and say how prices game has fallen apart since he was let go by the habs. Does not really say much when he is the goalie coach for the canucks in my opinion
Senet1 : Signing Drewiske may tell us that there are plans to remove Diaz, Weber and maybe even Markov. Drewiske did not have enough time to learn our defensive system and I am thinking that he was signed because they feel he can be a good defenceman for us with time to learn the system. It also tells me that probably only one of the young D-men will make our team that being Tinordi. Beaulieau will probably play (start) in Hamilton.
Mats Naslund : Habs sign Davis Drewiske to a 2 year extension. He basically makes league minimum. I like the signing. Nothing exciting - but you want him to hold the last spot until a young guy forces his way onto the roster.
Mats Naslund : Hey everyone, HB has deleted the previous messages in order to get rid of spam. I'll post to get things back up and running.. PK Subban - Norris winner. Thoughts?
