  1. That crowd is roaring! I miss being at the Bell Centre!
  2. Born in the USA, grew up in Quebec City. The guy is 100% Quebecois.
  3. Murry Wilson just informed us that Jagr has one leg longer than the other. For some reason, this really amuses me.
  4. 12:30 AM in England? Where else would I be but sitting at home listening to a hockey game going on an ocean away?
  5. It's time for Koivu to crank the energy up! Come on Saku!
  6. he doesn't like us? He has scored every point in his NHL career against us! Two goals this year, three assists last year. Weird.
  7. I don't remember the exact lines from 00-01, but he usually skated with two the following: Lemieux, Jagr, Straka, Robert Lang, Jan Hrdina. Kovalev also played the point on the PP. The Pittsburgh PP was deadly that year, Kovalev must have gotten at least 30-40 of those points on the PP.
  8. I can't see any NHL team giving up anything valuable for Dagenais. Wait... Mike Milbury is still the GM on the Island, right?
  9. Makes me wonder, if the TSN was around back then, late 70's, how would they have rated Sittler and his inept bunch vs the all mighty Habs? Well, look at ESPN classic. It swear that they show that Game 7 vs. the Islanders in '78 when Lanny MacDonald scored in OT at least once a week. They even use it on their ads! And you guys laugh, but I know Leafs fans who to this day claim that Palmateer was better than Dryden. "Palmateer would have won all those Cups if he has that D in front of him." I kid you not, people actually believe this (are we really surprised?).
  10. My first memory of Habs-Bruins was in 1988, when Boston finally beat us once and they acted like they won the Stanley Cup. Even now, I think our best rivalry is with Boston (I think Kyle MacLaren took care of that). I know I can't stand 'em - especially "Big Overrated" Joe Thornton, considering all the cheap shots he's taken on our guys over the past 3 years. I have a lot of friends from New England and I can tell you that they aren't too fond of us, either, especially one Mike Ribeiro.
  11. Habs-Leafs hasn't been a proper rivalry since the 1960s. They couldn't touch us in the 1970s (late 70s Leafs = THE most overrated team in NHL history), and then we weren't even in the same conference for like 20 years. Maybe it heats up again now.
  12. Laraque is a bum. He's painfully slow, has little offensive skill other than the ability to stand in front of the net and bang in loose pucks, and Edmonton fans have gotten on him in the past two years for not dropping the gloves enough. And he makes over $1 million a year! What a waste of money...
