- muller93 : MB is forced to go out and get a big D-man. Missing Emelin for almost half the season is the last thing we needed to hear. Now going out and getting a big D-man is a MUST!!!
- muller93 : Now for the Fu**en Bruins who have no business even being in the second round are going to get a nice rest. Yes the same goons who took out one of best D-man for 6 more months. There is NO Fu**en justice. Just venting--Ok i feel better now.
- muller93 : So pissed to see the Rangers lay down and play like total crap. How did the Rangers beat the Caps? This team is playing with no heart--a must win and can only muster 23 shots...PATHETIC !!!
- muller93 : Senet I did see Galchenyuks goal--Made a great move for the game winner. You can see the kid has so much confidence.
- goalie : If Rangers get swept I wonder if Tortorella will get his walking papers? Or Glen Sather? They have tons of 'talent' but zero wins in this series.
- goalie : It's really too bad we lost to the Sens as we would have played the Rangers and the way NYR are playing we would have beat them too. If only. If only!
- Senet1 : Actually I agree it was a good move for them to play a shorter season and get the experience. He could not have played in the minors this year he would have had to play junior or the NHL. However, he now has a year under him and knows what to expect next year and hopefully take a bigger responsibility on the team. Did you see those two goals in the bronze game? Wow.
- muller93 : Good move by the Habs not having Galchenyuk play in the minors. Now Galchenyuk has 1 year in the NHL and playoff experience this is going to pay off big time come next year.
- Senet1 : Galchenyuk scores to back to back goals in shoot out to help USA win Bronze metal. I did not see the second goal but the first was a beauty.
- Senet1 : So we could pick anywhere from 25th to 23rd depending on who wins these quarter final series.
- Senet1 : First, is the 14 teams in the lottery. Then there are 12 teams that did not make the semi finals in the order of the seasonal finish, Then there are the four teams in the semi final the first two eliminated pick in the order of the regular season points total and the last two based on who wins and who loses the cup. So as it stand now if say Detroit beats Chicago then Detroit moves up to pick after us. Boston or NYR will move up and pick after us. LA or San Jose will move up and pick after us
- Senet1 : Basically, I was wrong about the draft pick situation. There are three groups of drafting teams within the 30 teams.
- Senet1 : seriously ready to challenge for the cup. He will us win games but he will not be the difference between winning the cup and not winning the cup. You pick up players like that once you have the team ready to challenge,.
- Senet1 : I am looking at the players to draft and there are a lot of big 6'3-6'5 forwards available ion the draft this year. If we could draft 3-4 big young players in the 2nd and 3rd round why would you want to give that up for a roster player who may have 2-3 years at best. If we are going to build a winner to have to build it with bigger players and there are a lot of good big players available this year. So you sign Ott and he is with us for the short run, but probably not when we are seriously re
- Senet1 : Boullion is a great mentor for the young D-men
- muller93 : Boullion is one of MBs great additions--Boull ion is a definite Keeper.
- muller93 : Getting rid of Kaberle frees up a lot of cash. Boullion is small but is reliable and doesn't back down from anyone.
- muller93 : Exactly Goalie any thoughts on a punishing D-man?
- goalie : They;re showing determination adn skill vs Ducks and Blackhawks.
- goalie : REd Wings could turn out to be the surprise team of this year's playoffs!
- goalie : WE need to rid our team of Kaberle and Webber. Step two would be to then move Diaz. If we get that big d-man I believe that would push Boullion to # 7 on the chart. We'd then go with Georges, PK,Markov (to continue mentoring Ememlin) Tinordi as our starting six . THEN I'd be excited about our chances. We could then work on getting bigger forwards.
- goalie : I too would gladly give up a 3rd round pick for Ott- the type of player we sadly lack. AND if we could get one more rugged, expeienced defenceman it would help immensely.
- muller93 : Senet what you are saying makes sense but if we can get Ott for a 3rd round I'll take that all day.
- muller93 : MB should be looking at a big D-man first, even though I like our blue line with the addition of Tinordi. We need that insurance just in case one gets injured. Also I'm a firm believer in starting with the goalie first then-defense-for wards-and we already have good goalie. We have all noticed when we have the lead Price is tough to beat.
- Senet1 : So sometimes you have to sacrifice for one year or two to build that team in the draft. then add the finishing touches through FA and trades.
- Senet1 : Muller, Detroit is another good example. They have been in the hunt every year with good well balanced teams yet only one or two cups to show for it. However, they have built a team that has a chance every years for the last 10+ years. That is what I think we have a chance to do this year with a good draft. It reminds me of the habs teams of the mid 80 and 90's we built a team then with sold draft picks and won the cup twice during that time period. So sometimes you have to sacrifice a one
- muller93 : Very true Senet, you do need luck and we haven't had any luck it seems since the habs moved to the Bell Center. We had an incredible run in 2010 with some crazy goal tending from Halak. With Galchenyuk-Tinor di-Gallagher all in 1 year--not too bad, even with an early exit in the playoffs.
- Senet1 : Muller I guess we all have our own ideas, but there has never been too many times that were successful when they traded their draft picks away. We have a chance to build this team so we have a shot at winning the cup over the next 10 years. Even as good as Pittsburgh has been they have only won the cup once since Crosby and Malkin have been with the team. That is because you not only need great players but you need luck to win, but one thing about Pittsburgh they have a chance every year. The
- muller93 : Good point on Torres, he might be a liability. Torres has to tone it down a bit, but that's his game-very aggressive.
- goalie : Though I don't condone what Raffi Torres did - thos shows you how repeat offenders or near offenders are going to be treated. His hit was NOT illegal BUT what the rap sheet adn reputation Torres has he got severly punished. Lesson to be learned by OTHER players because Torres dopesn't learn fromk his mistakes.
- muller93 : Senet normally I would agree with you on not trading draft picks but we are not in a rebuilding stage. Sometimes draft picks can be a roll of the dice and it can take up to 3 years to be NHL ready. We have a good team and I agree with Stuo players like Clowe-Torres-Ott -Scott will make a big difference. Somebody has to protect Gallagher, he can't keep getting hit the way does--we need a tough forward so they think twice before going after Gallagher.
- Senet1 : Really a heathly Habs team would probably win more games against the Pens that we did against the Sens. Reason they Pens would not play as physical against us as against the Sens. If we get good goaltending we win at least two games.
- zpezada4ok : hello all «link»
- stuo11 : hes a tougher big guy too! Just a minor adjustment but will help a bit
- stuo11 : hes better than markov, and hes french who was in mention for defenceman of the year

Yes GO GIANTS GO smoke brady into next week. On another note, if we could some how get hossa here come the dead line there is no doubt in my mind the we would be a serious contender.I am not sure what we would need to give up but maybe ryder,firt rounder,and some prospects maybe chipchura pacorety lol i dont know im just throwing some names out there trust me i am no gm but could you imagine hossa added to this team? wow
February 3, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Hossa is a nice addition to a team that already has everything else. Now maybe Hossa would work here, but if the past is any indication, until we get some real grit in this lineup, Hossa should wait. Grit wins playoff rounds, no one can argue with that. Hossa couldn’t help bring the Sens anywhere, since he’s gone they’re blooming, and you remember the terrible playoff run the Thrashers had last year…they got their asses smoked in a sweep. These European, finesse scorers are great for regular season excitement, and they sell tickets which put asses in seats…but in the playoffs…esp. the later rounds…true grit and hard-nosed hockey takes the Cup home most of the time. Now, if guys like Lapierre, Dandy, and Smolinski can raise their games a little more, and reach the level of gritty players that win playoff rounds like Moen, Rob Niedermayer, and Jersey’s Madden…..then bring on Hossa, put him with Koivu, and let the rest take care of itself. We got a team that can take the hardware back home where it belongs then. GO HABS GO !!!
February 3, 2008 at 2:26 pm

Jagr is so slow I wonder if he took the short bus to school
February 3, 2008 at 4:02 pm
Ryder not playing today.. he played ok yesterday (went after the NYI player yesterday for the hit on Higgy).Wonder if there is a trade in the works or just a mix up of the team.(Carbo said before that as long as the team is winning he was not going to change the line up)hope there is….
February 3, 2008 at 4:13 pm
I,m watchin the game on NBC and they can’t even pronounce Huet
February 3, 2008 at 4:14 pm
penalty shot! Goal
February 3, 2008 at 4:19 pm
Nice shot by Little tits…..
February 3, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Huet asked them to pronounce his name properly. Apparently that’s the correct pronounciation, RDS had it wrong the past 2-3 years.
February 3, 2008 at 4:24 pm
We just got smoked by a dubi

February 3, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Avery needs to be exterminated
February 3, 2008 at 4:56 pm
The referees should have made a statement by giving a ranges 2 min as well as gorges and gave the habs a full 5min pp. there was enough going on to do it. but also they probably did it to help make up for the missed call on AK…oh well still a good game so far…
February 3, 2008 at 5:00 pm

You cant hit the post that many times and expect to win…hell of a game..this is the precursor to the playoffs..and Montreal better get used to “hit and get hit”..anybody still in for the referre accountabiltiy program i suggested >>????
February 3, 2008 at 5:30 pm
I told you guyz..the “special “K” brothers are going to be the catalyst the habs need in the playoffs,,,lapierrre is going to make some big big plays this year…komisarek cant play a better game..hes good today,,HITTIN LIKE A MAD MULE!
February 3, 2008 at 5:37 pm
THE HABS NEVER PLAY 60 MINUTES! And we NEVER beat the rangers. They should be ashamed of themselves, giving up a 3 goal lead at home!
February 3, 2008 at 5:38 pm
Well that was socially uncomfortable
February 3, 2008 at 5:40 pm
SHES DONE!!!..ok no bitchibg,,this was a great game..a new beginning..if you were really watching the game peoeple. you see that this game was full of surprises…the Kotstitsyn boyz can take a punch…the Canadiens can handle the checking and punishment but have to not get so unravelled when theres a physical presense to challenge themselves..and…its a perfect time of year to look in the mirroe and say to themselves that we can take the bullshit and give some too…other teams are going to see that the HABS arent just finesse now..its a new journey…pain is good..if you use it right…the young boyz stepped up today..the Habs won everything today..except goals for and against…so **** it..ol’time hockey lives in Montreal!!!…weve got a TEAM NOW!!!!!!!
February 3, 2008 at 5:41 pm
that was a well played games. 24 seconds of inattention in the second lost that game. tons of character and grit shown by all players, noone quit. sucks they lost ‘casue they deserved to win. HJ, they played 59 mins and 36 seconds of that game well.
February 3, 2008 at 5:43 pm
can’t win them all, we did make a statement though re: our toughness and willingness to play a phsy. dirty game. not a bad game to lose, though its depressing to give up a lead (woulda been 1 pt. back of OTT!!!)
February 3, 2008 at 5:52 pm
this loss, is the kind of game that could start a losing streak. I mean, how do you come back from a devastating loss like this?
February 3, 2008 at 5:58 pm
come on we did it vs. the preds remember? and now look at the team. good as new
February 3, 2008 at 6:11 pm
it was an exciting and physical game…the only problem is that some players didn’t complete their assignments and this cost them the game. The errors mainly due to lack of execution. Smolinsky gives puck away, Kovalev the same, Hamerlick twice leaves forwards alone. non block of point shot and screening Huet. Koivu takes foolish penalty. In general a good physical game but one they let slip. On to the next as the last 10 games have been positive and if you are going to lose one then this is the type to do so as if you correct the missed assignments, then you will have the 2points.
Time for a deal…Ryder in the stands is not part of the team. Someone said San Jose to deal with Toronto, Habs must make it difficult on the McLaffs and throw in an offer to up the anty.
Huet was not sharp however but will bounce back!!
February 3, 2008 at 6:15 pm
What a game! You guys are right about the giveaways, especially by Kovalev. Those drop passes only work about half the time no matter how many pretty goals they generate.
The Rangers just ground this one out and a couple of goals can be blamed directly on Hamrlik. Komisarek was physical but he seemed a little weak with the puck a few times.
Oh well, moving forward to meet the Leafs with a potential trade in the meantime!
February 3, 2008 at 6:16 pm
It’s time for Halak to get some starts. We need a proven backup, because right now we don’t have one. If Carbo was NYR’s coach, NYR would have lost.
February 3, 2008 at 6:19 pm
Thank god there is SAM here to make sense of things,,i thought i was alone in an insane asylum for a minute…they lose a game and every one wants to trade and punish…they hit some posts and could have deflated the rangers with that fourth goal…BFD!..live and learn..we have a physical YOUNG team…it is a great lesson learner game…did Yaghr score???mmm??? anyone actually watch this game?
February 3, 2008 at 6:20 pm
I’m glad there isn’t mass panic in hab land.
This was one loss among many recent wins. They still played ok, they showed they were physical and they, hopefully, learned some lessons.
February 3, 2008 at 6:21 pm
HJ your medicine is ready now…go beddy bye..night night..thank heaven he’s not sittibg beside Mr.Gillette giving him pointers!

February 3, 2008 at 6:48 pm
Yeah ..you know it all “habfreak”(just freak is good enough for me)..bandwagon jumper and total ignorant of waht happens off the ice…you have that “evryones a robot and not human attitude..id love to sqaure up with you in game and show you what kindergarden is!..id lame you up and hang your jock strap to your chin in a second!
I kicked boxed as well as taught karate and you think its all about winning?..your a selfish little ***** that need to learn FROM ME!
ASSHO:LE!!
February 3, 2008 at 7:20 pm
You need some anger managment
February 3, 2008 at 7:42 pm
where is Ryder? rumor going that he was seen leaving the bell center with all his stuff just wondering if anyone can confirm anything.
February 3, 2008 at 7:45 pm
you know I used to agree with a lot of things you used to say but now…I agree with nothing you say because your a jerk. and you don’t know how to spell “waht”. Get in a garbage and find out. Bet you live in dumpster. Our habs have fun out there because if they don’t why are they playing something they don’t have a reason to play?????? anyways lets carry our argument into the next link. I have no intension of ending it.

Posted on February 3rd, 2008 at 4:13 pm. About ‘Super Sunday’.
I,m watchin the game on NBC and they can’t even pronounce Huet
I watched it on NBC too. apparently you pronounce it HUIT. I always thought it was HUEY but I guess everyone was wrong.
February 3, 2008 at 8:48 pm
Halak sent to the minors…..
February 3, 2008 at 9:59 pm
where did you hear? This is big news!
February 3, 2008 at 10:16 pm
wait that means Price is back! He did get a shutout in his last game, with 25 saves. Not bad.
February 3, 2008 at 11:15 pm
Like the HABMAN says ..the GIANTS WIN THE SUPER BOWL!!!!..kindergarden that HAB FREAK…you remind me of New Englands coach..walk off the field and dont congradulate the other coach for his efforts…i could see you doing that!
KINDERGARDEN THAT!!!!!
You should know your sports better!
February 3, 2008 at 11:20 pm
Again…HABMAN says PRICE will be back in time for playoffs…and if he isnt i wont blog here anymore…..its all on KOvalevs team blog…
When you right your right i guess…..lets say that witha big YEAH!
So any other predictions out there?
February 4, 2008 at 7:38 am
I hate to see my team lose like that but It can happen. I was so excited earlier on and the Rangers got me pissed right off. that was a Playoff game and you could see that mtl wouldn’t be able to go through it. Kovalev was afraid of everyone, even Jagr and Huet stopped the shots that didn’t matter. Kovalev should know that his team will be right there to help him out. I do think that mtl will pound the rangers the next time they see them. I’m so pissed that I won’t be happy until I see mtl 70 pts Ott 69 pts.
