If you're francophone and watched RDS last night (the show is called 110%), it looks like we may be seeing Ryder and O'Byrne being traded for Alex Tanguay. It was also suggested that Ryder has quite the alcohol issues that may be contributing to his subpar performance this year.

Why is Ryder the only one being thrown to the wolves so to speak, and Koivu's and Higgins lack of presence and production on the ice being ignored with no "punishment". Higgins is NOT on pace for 60 pts, and Koivu MIGHT make it there, but with all the extra ice time these 2 get over Ryder, they should be ahead of Ryder in pts. PP, PK and regular shifts, along with the fact they have 6 and 7 more full games played then Ryder...and Higgins only has 16 more points than Ryder. It's a no-brainer they should be ahead of Ryder....but it's ridiculous they're not ahead of him by more. Higgins needs a point a game to reach 60...anyone really think thats gonna happen? And like I said, Koivu might make it there, but that still not number for a "first" line center. The extra time and games account for the extra points...nothing else. These guys are still playing horribly and a non-factor in most games. You ask me why Koivu and Higgins aren't producing....I think it's partly guilt..Guilt that none of the 3 are producing, and their linemate, and Higgins good friend and roommate is the only one being wrongly targeted and punished for the downslide of all 3. The line is just not clicking, and it's insane that Ryder is being blamed for the downfall of Koivu and Higgins...and like I said, these 2 players no it also. I'm a diehard Habs fan....but it's time to move on Ryder and start scoring like you can again somehwre else...sadly, you're not being given a fair shake in Montreal. Meanwhile, keep on winning boys, Kovy's line gotta keep producing or we're in deep...cause other than Streit and Markov, we're not getting it from anywhere else. Pound the Leafs tonight....GO HABS GO !!! Thank you Ice Man….it’s what I’ve been saying all year.

Check out the habs schedule on the 26th. And people, please give it up with Ribeiro, he would of still su cked in Montreal. He was a party animal and always in clubs, nights before games, getting smashed. The Best place he could of ended up is in Dallas where he can't do those stupidities and go out. All he as too do now is Play hockey work out and take care of his kids. Mike was not suited for Montreal.

And if we still had Micky Ribs I don't think we would be having this topic of conversation. If Gainey were to trade Higgins it would be a bigger mistake than trading Ribeiro”huge”.

Gainey is holding all the cards and I think some minor tweaks could be made with maybe Ryder and Halak as bait but I really think he should not mortgage the future for Hossa or Jokinen. Chris Higgins has more heart than either one of them. Mike Milbury suggested that Jokinen is a problem player. Gainey has to think of Chemistry.

Of course this will all change as soon as they see they cannot sign him then they will be looking at the other options ... make sence eh?
