Gainey’s biggest screw-up,we sure could use his services now.But it did help me spell Niniimaa? Hey Ribs please take it easy on your old club,after all, they developed you for THE STARS. Maybe we can get Ribs for Ryder,lol?

already down 2-0 after only 1st period. Habs didn’t show up, AGAIN! Wow did Gainey really screw up. traded Ribeiro, who’s leading Dalas in points, for a has been over the hill player. No wonder Gainey can’t make a decent trade, or sign a decent player. Guess that’s why he never makes tradesany more. they all blow up in his face! It seems every game recently, we’re totally dominated by our opposition, and look bad.

let’s not get all up in arms about Gainey trading Ribeiro, pretty much everybody wanted to chase him out of town after all those screw ups in the Carolina series.

I agree with Patrick. Many (I’m not saying all) were calling for a trade involving Ribeiro.

Anyway, isn’t this day that the HAbs have lost many times in a row, dating back to the 90′s?

The Habs are okay. Disappointing at times, a little too often but I’ll still cheer for them. I ain’t jumping on the band wagon or getting off when they start losing. My opinion of them doesn’t change from game to game.

DOes anyone know if Gainey tried to resign last yr and Gilette begged him to stay? Has anyone heard this one?

GO HAbs go!

Hey Latelentless

Skick on the ice in front of the net..
Get him off the ice on power plays..
What do they see in this guy!!! Pathetic

habs mojo,your not trying to blame one Hab for this **** effort are you?You do know this is a team sport and requires team effort?Have you seen that by our Habs team yet?Didn’t think so!!!

that’s Gainey! so Hamrshit just gave a gift goal to Ribeiro, who has 3 points so far tonight. Can we trade Carbo, Gainey, and the entire habs team, to anyone who wants garbage? So how do you spell relief? geting rid of every single habs player, coach, GM, president,scout, and owner!

Price looked soft

Koivu looked soft

Latendresse looked out of place

We need some toughness on this team.. Grrrrrrrrrrrr

Are you really a Habs fan? ha ha…no seriously?

Dude of course it’s a team effort.. Duh

It was comment during the game..

that jerk leads his team in scoring including 20 goals. Is there anyone on the habs that has 20 goals, or even close to it? The reason players leave here, and do so well elsewhere,is: the pressure here from the media, lousy teams here, and the coache’s inability to both communicate and teach players how to play, and win. Let’s see… Leclair couldn’t do it here,Ribeiro, Tucker,Samsonov,and the list goes on and on. What bothers me, is players that we could have drafted, and didn’t, and have since become great players elsewhere. It’s just unbelievable that wasted and poor scouting.
Excellent scouting is the difference between Montreal and Ottawa!

Gainey just dropped the ball, plain and simple.

Merry Xmas fellow hab fans, and Happy New Year! Let’s hope that 2008 is a better year for the habs,than 2007 was! Well, we can dream, can’t we?

Patrick: the only one who posts negative comments, is YOU, and you criticize every single habs blogger! We’re entitled to our opinions, and if we all agree on something, then it must be true.
Well, I did wish all fellow hab bloggers a merry xmas and happy new year, EXCEPT YOU!

ha ha ha, I was going to cut and paste your posts but what’s the point? go back and read them for yourself. Look I honestly think you love to hate the habs. I’m not trying to antagonize you here, I’m just saying step back for a minute and remember that his is a hockey team that YOU actually cheer for.

ps I don’t criticize every habs blogger, and there does not seem to be a consensus that the habs suck.

Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year to all of the Habs Fans everywhere.

Lets put all of our differnces behind us in the new year. Let bigones be bigones.

Let’s hope that the New Year will be Montreal’s year.

We always love our Children and you love them more when they are bad.

Lets love our Habs in good times and love them even more when they are bad.

God Bless us. Every one.

Gainy should make every effort to sign alex ovechkin. Build a team around him
Montreal has not had a super star since lefleur.Even if 3 or 4 good players are given up it would be worth it for the future of this team

I am so sick of hearing all about how well the Canadiens are doing this year. I am so sick of this team playing all home games in the month of March for the 11th or 12th season in a row. This team never seems to have an extended road trip of any description and if and when they do it falls during the Christmas Holiday season so they get a break in between. It would be interesting to see what this overachieving team would do if they had to play like the rest of the teams in the NHL. Ottawa is now heading into a stretch where they play 6 games in 9 days…poor little Canadiens never, ever have to do this.

Of course you have the best powerplay in the league; it is because your team is constantly on the power play when you are losing. You can predict with great accuracy that if this team is down with 5 minutes left in the third period that at least one man for the other team is in the box. This is a sure fire bet; don’t believe me watch for yourself. There is always a cheap penalty called near the end of every game when this team is losing.

I am sick of the favourtism this team gets by the NHL…team rarely plays back to back, rarely on Sundays and never more than 2 or 3 games in a week. The problem is that the Canadiens are in a french province where everyone thinks that they deserve favourtism because of the language issues. I don’t even consider this team a Canadian team because if Quebec had it’s way they would be their own country. One may say that this is not how the club feels but that is not true. Your team will choose a player if he has a french name over anyone else. You used to have the pick of all the french players in the 50′s and 60′s…no wonder you won so many cups. You will pick a dumb french coach over one that is English and has more skill. Your star players Kovalev and Koivu both spoke out this year about the favourtism given to the French players…it is not just me thinking this way when you have your stars speaking out about this. No wonder Sheldon Souray couldn’t wait to get the hell out of little France!

I am so fed up with all the favourtism that I don’t even enjoy watching hockey any more. I can feel yet another very undeserved Stanley Cup being awarded to a team that should be in the basement of the standings. When and if the NHL ever evens up the score then we will all see how bad this team really is.

I have had enough of this team and this league.

Number One hab hater on the face of the earth. On that famous New Year’s eve game againt the Russians in 1976 I was going for the Russians! That should tell all of you how much I despise this team, the language and what they represent. Good thing Carbaneau is a good whiner…it is what he has always done best.
