I shouldnt be posting this but apparently Dumont was told by Gainey to wait until the 24th of august before signing with other clubs. Apparently Gainey is trying to pull off a deal that would leave a spot for Dumont on the line-up. This comes from my friend whose aunt work as an assistant for Mr Boivin. I do not expect you to believe me. have a nice day

Never?

The eye looks fine on the surface! Good news. Lets just hope he didnt lose too much vision in it so he can still see his left winger

Malkin to Montreal? For some reason I doubt Pittburg would let Malkin go...This is more of a wish list than a credible trade.

If Bob makes another move this summer it will be to get a defense man not Dumont. Our offense is stacked...We only need a big center and Dumont is not one.

You obviously dont know Ribeiro. I do. I played vs him a couple of times when he used to come in the region of Joliette and the guy is not a hitter! But dont think he is afraid of going in the corners, its just not true. People expect too much from Ribeiro...he is not LeCavalier! He is not going to change into a power forward just because you would like it. Ribeiro is a playmaker and he does his job quite well, his stats prove it. I think people dislike Ribeiro only because he 'faked' an injury a couple years ago in the playoffs. Ive only seen Mike once since then and I didnt speak to him about that, but I am sure he knows he did a mistake. People should give the guy a break and start appreciatin what he brings to the team.

I predict Lindros will not be able to finish the season.

GM's are crazy...They think one player is going to change their whole team?! They dont know nothing about hockey and Havlat is no Sidney Crosby, Jagr or Ovechkin. History proves that teams with a few overpaid stars and nothing else fail in the playoffs.I thought that seeing Carolina win the cup would remind other GM's how to build a solid franchise.

Looks like we will be the same team when 07 starts.

Yep

I guess he prefers to play in the shadow of Jagr than under the scrutiny of our media .

Like another reality show out there : Gainey Knows Best!

First of all, Le Journal de Montreal IS bull sh*t so it doesnt give in any way the Poti rumors more credibility

Apparently this is a false rumour. Bob Mackenzie was not on TSN this morning someone just made that up.

Defense? Well well lets see !

You bring up a lot of good point KoZeD. I agree with you that maybe Carbo can shape Ribeiro into a better team player and make him focus more on his game. I could deal with one more year with Ribs to see what happens with him but I am not sure if he is well liked by the other players of the team.

I tought Recchi was going back to Pittsburg? Isnt it what he said?

I do not agree with what is written in that article. It was written by some bitter english speaking journalist who blames french for not being able to get a big name. Thats pure Bull **** ! Maybe they (UFAs) wanted too much money? Why isnt it mentioned? Maybe it is because of high taxes? No no no... It has to be because of french language...Good lord its fun to see the what the whole Canada thinks of Quebec in 2006. Still the same old racist song! Im pissed Montreal is Bilingual and there are privates schools. If you win 5 mil per year will you send your kid in a public school anyway? Its likely not...

Maybe I am clueless but, isnt it possible we still get our hands on Arnott this summer? I mean we can always trade for him no?

The worst thing in this is Theodore was interviewed recently in an article from NHL.com where he says he misses Stephanie and his home. That every day he thinks about his child and watch at his familly's pictures. WOW! You know I usually do not like talking about people's private lives but this is too much. Also it is important to note that Theodore's GF is spending her days at the hospital with their daughter who has important health problems... Hey girls you still like cute THeo? :puke:

RDS reports that mario Tremblay asked the Wild's direction to release him of his duties. Guys Mario Tremblay is going to be assistant coach of Carbo!

No votes for Bryan McCabbe? hahaha I guess the TML fans wouldnt be happy about this one . Anyway the latest rumours send McCabbe in Long Island,NY. Thats where his wife and daughter want to be.

Poor Sundstrom, I liked him a lot. Did he ever made a bad play? He was a very conservative player but hey thats what he was asked to do (at least by Claude Julien)! I guess he didnt fit too well in the new 'offensive depth' mentality of Bob Gainey (wich I prefer BTW).

The habs are the most dominant team in this sport's history so its normal that many players still associate Montreal with good hockey. Now after a decade of misery we finally have built a team that lives up to the standards we set, winning and giving your 100%. Be proud of the habs! :hlogo: :hlogo: :hlogo:

Anyway, Scotty Bowman himself said Streit had great potential last year. So I guess this must mean something no?
