  1. the caps get Shattenkirk...we get Jordie Benn...MB beat again. I'm a poet
  2. Did the devils win the cup last year? We are making this team look really good tonight. What happened to the Habs who played the Leafs? I want to see that team.
  3. i wonder if CJ had a significant hand in this? Benn adds some toughness to an otherwise soft D-corps. But he comes at a price re, cap. I don't think MB is finished yet on D... Petry or Beaulieu next?
  4. WOW...what a game!! Lets give our guys some credit.- a wonderful effort ...that Leafs team tho...
  5. there are, like you said, a number of issues...but i HAVE to believe we are better than this..CJ has 20 games to turn it around - lets root for our new (old) coach to get it done despite what MB brings. Just some points for what it's worth: - like just about every other Hab fan; i thought the PK Subban trade was (how do i put this ...) strange? However Weber is NOT the problem. - I strongly believe we are the only team (in the NHL anyways) that would consider #27 as a #1 C. He simply isn't...maybe he will be one day - but we have a cup to win and i think he should move back to the winger position (or traded away). I know he impressed earlier on, but he was lost out there then too - the puck was going in so we overlooked it..and he is still lost out there now..just brutal - Weber needs to be paired with Markov from this point onward. - And Finally, Emelin is not a top 4 D - so why are we pretending he is (the size of his contract i guess)...i give him credit for his ability to hit - BUT he doesn't do it consistently and i sometime wonder if he is "present" in the game...for instance - does he know the score? is he aware of how much time is left in a game? And let's not even talk about his passing skills..
  6. couldn't agree more...he was rummaging thru the castoff pile,
  7. i have to believe CJ can prepare this team for a playoff run...i just think MB waited too long to fire the genius...then again his options were limited until CJ became available. 20 games to sort things out is at the limit of what it should take... And i also think it's to our ADVANTAGE that CJ does not know much about our prospects (Hudon, McCarron, Getto, DLR, etc...). One reason (amongst many) to bring in a new coach is to also bring in objectivity and to completely "delete" the old bias (**this constant interchanging of AHL players never made sense to me...especially when we bring a player up for him to play about 6 minutes in one game and then send him down again...I mean what does this really tell us about the player?).
  8. the Laffs are in 3rd with a couple of games in hand
  9. does it even matter that we are still in first place??
  10. CJ is on the losing end in his 1000th game...what a loser.
  11. he's been playing softer than usual lately...me thinks he's playing hurt
  12. The Greiss Is Right...we make this guy look like the second coming of Vezina
  13. Now available in the IKEA Tel Quel section - #51, #14, #17, #32, #74, #28 etc
  14. ya we keep talking about lack of productivity at C...but our wingers...sheesh
