tokyohabs Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Another pen. Come on guys. Has the game slowed down? Or just the game thread? It's everyone's nervousness... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRock Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Is it just me or does Bryan Murray like someone stole his lunch every time they show him behind the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacchus Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Just got back from a meeting ... very happy about the Habs score. Got a question though, Higgins has been sucking on the score sheet recently. Think he will get benched sometime soon. Couldn't hurt. Time off to rest, and to prepare mentally.

gohabsgo252006 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Just got back from a meeting ... very happy about the Habs score. Got a question though, Higgins has been sucking on the score sheet recently. Think he will get benched sometime soon. Couldn't hurt. Time off to rest, and to prepare mentally. You didn't get to see the game so I'll go easy, but Higgins looked very good tonight, looked like he was finally getting his speed back, which bodes well. The goals will start coming soon enough, but he looks like the break really helped him recover and he played a very good game tonight.

habs_in_the_blood Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 victory is yours for the taking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now lets hope the sens lose tomorrow against the capitals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRock Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Maybe what Souray said Saturday night got through. Now they gotta carry this over, not be content with one solid game. Les trois étoiles 1. Plekanec 2. Aebischer 3. Streit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan88 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 CHALK UP THE WIN!! GO HABS GO! I think my thread on Streit somehow did something to him lol played an awesome game tonight, same with Kovalev, Plekanec, and Aebischer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cataclaw Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 My thoughts: 1. LOL @ Koivu dodging Neil's hit and Neil plowing into a senator (Phillips i think it was). Hilarious 2. WOW @ Abby's highlight reel save on Spezza. We'll be seeing that one in the papers! 3. Streit and Pleks stepping up nicely. 4. Poor Samsonov, Kovalev and Koivu -- all 3 of these guys put up big efforts tonight and were either robbed or terribly unlucky. Kovalev and Sammy especially could have potted a few goals. Their time will come... At least they're trying. Again, Aebischer with the incredible save on Dryden's jersey retirement night, the save itself happening right under his banner. Sounds almost magical, hah. GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habber Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Best game from start to finish this year. Now if we play like that 75% of the time and 100% of the time against the laffs..Life Will Be Good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 all i could find was that he retired before he would pass his prime... i remember also reading about his retirement at the time in the newspapers and, if my memory serves me correctly, he also retired because he had had enough of the pressure to always be the very best at every game and every season... that was part of the era when the canadiens players won the cup or else they let down the whole 'canadiens' community... (ridiculous expectations) GO :hlogo: GO! Read The Game. It's great. And it also gives insight into Dryden's mind, especially as it pertained to his retirement. You have to read between the lines a bit, but he knew that the Dynasty was on its last legs - the whole 79 season was a very strained one, with the team starting to show cracks - and his very great pride would not allow him to return to being where he was in the early 70s, 'better than the team,' as he put it; he writes about the fatigue and the physical toll; and also about weaknesses in his own aging game. It seems to have been a series of considerations for him. Plus, being 31 then was closer to being 35 today in hockey terms...not ancient, but not ridiculously young to retire either.

fromage Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 2. WOW @ Abby's highlight reel save on Spezza. We'll be seeing that one in the papers! We'll be seeing that right now. I uploaded it even before the game finished! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
