Luongo is worth the world. I would have given Keenan Zednik Bulis and Komisarek for Luongo. As for Tanguay, we always need talented offensive players, the kind that could score like that last game against Carolina. Can anyone see the importance of a Cory Stillman, Cup winner with Tampa and Carolina??? Im glad your impressed about a player that has played in high school in the USA. Im not

Damn Gainey Luongo Tanguay and who the hell was that draft choice, Gainey sits on his hands again, if he had gotten a second free agent last year to complement Kovalev we may be talking about a Cup win

??? You must mean Hull and Mikita, because Bobby Orr was in his prime and Phil Esposito had just broken Bobby Hull's record by a country mile with 76 goals. As for Hull, this is before he went to the WHA where he had 5 more great years with the Jets. Tony O was in his prime and Mikita was just past his prime. You forget the hawks and the Bruins both finished first in each conference. The habs finished third I think Frank Mahovlich wasnt bad either nor Lapointe. Too bad Serge Savard was injured and did not play. I also remember Rejean Houle shadowing Bobby Hull. JC Tremblay was almost as dominant as Bobby Orr. And dont forget Fergie who scored some important goals and had a temper tantrum when Mcneil becnhed him for a game. Peter M was outstanding against the hawks. Terry harper had his moments.

As good as Roy was in 86 Dryden was better in 71, Roy didnt have to face Bobby Orr and the Big bad bruins or the hawks with Hull and Mikita At the time the Bruins looked like the greatest team of all time, but as Dick irvin likes to point out the 71 Habs had more hall of famers then the 71 Bruins

funny now that reminds me that comeback was the second game in the playoffs that year and the habs were on the road- another thing that I remember Bobby Orr got a 10 minute misconduct in the third period as the habs rolled. And I remember Beliveau got a 10 minutes misconduct in the first game which the habs lost. Red Fisher says Beliveau got the misconduct cause he asked the referee " Isnt this a great game" The referree says "yes it is" and then Beliveau replied " Too bad you missed it" yuk yuk yuk

This is for the oldtimers. I just watched the Habs win in overtime, and I was reminded of that game in 1971- Bruins ahead 5-0 in the second period- but the Habs won that game Fergie Beliveau Lemaire Mahovlich- I think the pocket rocket started the comeback- I think the final score was 7-5. The Bruins had Orr Espo Bucyk etc etc- The habs had the Mahovlich brothers, Beliveau, Lemaire, Cournoyer, Fergie, Lapointe, Henri Richard, Houle, Tardif. Laperierre, JC Tremblay and of course Ken Dryden. The most exciting playoffs I ever saw cause the habs were the underdogs. They defeated the big bad Bruins in 7 games , then the North Stars in 6 and that was a heckuva of a series as well, and finally the hawks in 7 where Dryden and Tony O went at it for 7 games, Finally Beliveau retires after game 7 carrying the cup around Chicago stadium for the first time

There is a limited team aspect when all the players are exhausted and can barely skate down the ice and start making all sorts of mental mistakes they would never make in the first 60 minutes. Lets face it these players are programmed for 60 minutes not 120 minutes

a few more points wasnt Kovalev awesome- that move where he does a Savardian spinnerama and almost scores reminded me of Sydney Crosby-I decided to watch the overtime on the CBC- I swear to god Harry neale was about to cry he was whispering after Montreal scored the winner- This was a real gutsy win

a few points- damn never thought id say this but boy did we miss Souray- I hope those idiotic RDS announcers will now get off Ryder's case- what is the point of playing overtime after overtime- its not the best team wins but the player with the most stamina- I say after one period let's have a shootout-remember we are the only team to have won 2 games on the road in the playoffs- I think I see Huet with a shutout in one of the next 2 games if not both

I think a better idea Atlantic Provinces Quebec Ontario and Western provinces- Ryder and Crosby for the Atlantic provinces

Well?

sheesh what a bunch of whiners- my question was who played on the junior canadians in the late sixties that had the nickname boom boom like Geoffrion- the responses were Bobby Smith Steve Shutt and John Kordic- none of whom played for the junior canadians- anyways the answer is Bobby Guindon next question

I have had one guess, it is either tough or no one is trying

Well if he gets on your nerves what about Koivu Kovalev Begin etc etc etc who have fewer goals then him Yeah we need 10 more useless forwards that score 25 goals each

Wanna complain about the announcers on RDS- They have decided to make Micheal Ryder their whipping boy. Every mistake he makes is magnified by this duo. Right after they were shooting their mouth off about another mistake Ryder scored and that shut them up. DO they realize Ryder has the most goals on the team???

huh? he played with the junior canadiens not the canadiens??? and not Kordic

Ok in honour of the boomer's passing away, I remember the memorial cup winning junior canadiens of the late sixties had another player with the nickname boom boom. Who was he? Most of his career was spent in the WHA?

Pavel Brendl Kris Beech Rod Sarich Jeff Feniak Matt Kinch Jordan Krestanovich

Just signed it shameful how they treated hockey history and the Boomer

beautiful ceremony- touching and emotional at bell center- one question though where was Jean Beliveau- I could understand if he was sick or on vacation- but he wasn't even shown on the video of all the ex teammates-I know big Jean was chosen over the boomer as Captain in 1962 but... The Boomer was the Mickey Mantle of his time not the Babe Ruth or the Joe Dimaggio but a great player all the same

always got him confused with reid simpson ex of the habs

god awful game, what happened to the new NHL??? What I have come to realize is the limited scoring talents of players. All those powerplays and so few powerplay goals. Montreal was lukewarm and Boston was limp to dead

Im pretty sure we are getting Luongo, Roberto has made it clear he aint signing with Florida no matter what they offer. He's coming home

yesssssssssssssssss great trade, I see Luongo here next year with all that cap space. Viva Roberto

Do you realize Guerin is 36 years old
