  1. This is great news. Hopefully Higgins heals faster than expected, and we get to see our whole team playing together sooner rather than later.
  2. He scored again last night...he now has 5 goals and 2 assists in 7 games. I can't help but think that he would have looked pretty good centering Kovalev and Samsonov.
  3. I think that as long as Huet is playing this well, it shoud be three games Huet, one game Abby. Of course, if Abby stands on his head in that one game...you roll it over and give him the next start to make it 2-2. I like the idea of playing Abby more than a regular back-up...because I want Huet to be fresh for the playoffs.
  4. Are you kidding me? You want the Habs to lose just so Abby can look better?!?! To hell with Abby, we need a win.
  5. Synopsis: shaky Aebischer + lethargic backchecking by Habs = current situation
  6. Abby's flopping almost got the Panthers an easy 4th goal
  7. We need some sustained pressure in the FLA zone zoon...the ice is starting to look like it's tilted.
  8. Abby is flopping around in his crease like a flounder. I'd give him the hook.
  9. He looks dangerous...but I'll wait to see if he's a 'finisher' before I make up my mind on him.
  10. I don't know about 'iron fist of rage', but we will definitely be a much better team.
  11. I think this bobbing back and forth between center and wing, and not having a proper center when he does play wing (where he should be playing) has more to do with the lack of production than any physical ailments.
  12. I put tight-fitting jerseys right up there with the Flyers' Cooper-alls; ridiculous!
  13. I was out of town tonight, and taped the game. I was tipped off by phone to not watch the tape when I got home, and thus was spared wasting two hours of my life. This team is looking more and more AVERAGE. I hope and pray that things will improve when guys like Higgins, Dandy, and Boullion are back from injury.
  14. I like it...always did.
  15. Looking at that list, it just drove home how many great leaders have retired recently.
  16. I'm glad Latendresse took the high road, as it would have been easy to take a jab back at Patrick.
  17. I'm not a big fan of that song...I prefer Vertigo. I'd be open to a replacement for next season, but definitely not that hokey goal song. If they picked it, then it should stay until they decide they want something else. Really, who are WE to decide...we're not the ones scoring the goals.
  18. This really hurts....and it hurts both our regular strength firepower and our penalty killing. It would be nice to see Ryder and Koivu wake up and pick up the slack, as it has felt like Higgins was carrying that line lately. But, like I said in an earlier thread, Higgins was playing so well that it's going to take a team effort to replace what he was bringing to the rink every night. There's plenty of room for improvement from a lot of guys, and there's no reason why this should result in a collapse. 2nd line will now clearly be the first line, and they will have to consistently produce. 3rd line will have to chip in more regularily too (I think Johnson and Bonk have it in him to net a few).
  19. That hurts a lot; if you asked me which player could best be described as indispensable for the Habs so far this season, it'd be Higgins. Several guys are going to have raise their games a notch to pick up the slack.
  20. I'm hoping to see the first back-to-back ******* of the season for the Habs. (none of you better say it!!!) Habs will score 3 or 4 goals and win.
  21. Looks like the final project for an 'introduction to graphic design' class or something. Very amateur-ish....so bad it may warrant a petition to change it.
  22. I'm hoping it's Higgins. He keeps playing like he has been, and Bob should lock him into a good long contract. He works hard every shift, he scores, he kills penalties...seldom takes penalties. I think he'd be a great lead-by-example captain.
