  1. I don't care for the Canucks at all...but...I root for them anytime they play any of our Eastern Conference rivals. For that matter, I root for ANY team from the Western Conference when they're playing one of our Eastern Conference rivals!

  2. devil's advocate or other perspective here....

    would kovalev's consistent inconsistency be a negative influence on latendresses's development?

    just a thought...

    GO :hlogo: GO!

    It might actually have the opposite effect. Gui could look over and say to himself "Okay, Kovy's asleep tonight...so it's up to me to take over." Gui accepts more of a leadership role, pushes himself a lil' bit harder, and before you know it...he's developing in leaps and bounds.

  3. Not one mention of Plekanec and another multi point game, you guys really don't appreciate that guy. He is doing a hell of a job centering the second line when people used to call him cement hands and everyone blamed the second line problems on him. <_<

    He has improved, no doubt. But that doesn't change how awful he was the first two months of the season...he really did play like his hands were encased in cement in the offensive zone for quite awhile! Glad to see he is finally loosening the grip on his stick and getting the puck to do what he wants it to. Nobody would be happier than me if this guy was able to contribute offensively on a regular basis...but...I need to see a lil' bit more of this improved play out of him before I'm sold.

  4. Like I've said before, I miss the good ole days when we had a core group of people who didn't give up all faith in everyone when things weren't going well. If you people haven't noticed, this is how the NHL works these days. Winning and losing streaks are much more pronounced than they used to be.

    It's not just that we're losing...it's how we're losing. Losing games where you played pretty well is fine...that's the normal ebb and flow of a season. But to have damn near the whole team not show up and get beaten so soundly? That's a whole different story.

  5. I would list all the things the Habs did wrong in that game, but I'm too lazy to type that much. Far easier to list what was good about that game:

    Lats controlling the puck.

    Lapierre throwing the body.

    There, that's it...I can sum up what was good about the Habs tonight in those eight words. All else was either mediocre or flat out bad.
