    Ok....fellow Habs fans....let me start by saying I've got a pretty good buzz-on tonight.

    My brother and I enjoyed watching the Habs drive the final nail in the Leafs coffin whilst toasting the bleu blanc et rouge with many a beer. Afterwards, we went out to a local watering hole and mercilessly teased anyone wearing Leafs gear....you'd all be proud. The teasing took many forms:

    -my going up to one and shaking his hand, while saying "I'm impressed bud, it takes balls to wear that hat after your team put in such a gutless performance"

    -my standing behind Leafs fans and whistling the chorus from 'Vertigo' as loud as I possibly could until they got flustered

    -my inquiring if the Leafs fans knew when tee-off time was for Sundin and the boys

    It felt so damn goooooood!!!!

    GO HABS GO!!!

    GO HABS GO!!!

    Oh, and a special shoutout to my good friend J. Ferguson, who predicted Radek Bonk would have a big night tonight!

    Any Info On Markov's Status?

    I played through back spasms during my senior year of football in HS. As a D-lineman, I could get away with it by moving from end to tackle: most of what I had to do was plug up the middle of the line on runs. But Markov, being a mobile defenseman, likely could not play effectively on muscle relaxers/painkillers. Twisting movements hurt the most, which defensemen must do often, and the mind-dulling effect of the painkillers would definitely lead to some very bad decisions. The good thing about back spasms is that they sometimes disappear quickly with treatment, and you can bet that the Habs have the very best in physiotherapy available to their players. Let's cross our fingers and say our prayers.

    Time For Some Minor Changes?

    Having 3 smurfs at center is a huge problem.

    AMEN!

    I can't believe we're locked into Koivu (we'll call him Papa Smurf, as he's the longest serving and the leader of the Smurfs) for another 3 years at top dollar. I just hope Bob has the sense to sign a quality free-agent center with some size in the offseason...it should be his top priority. Anytime I watch a Sharks game, I look at Thornton and fantasize that there could be some chain of events that would land him in a Habs jersey. I can only imagine how many goals Kovalev would rack up having a top-notch playmaker with size centering his line.

    Look. We're all frustrated, but for the Koivu bashing to take on a life of its own is pathetic.

    I am ashamed to be part of the same "fan club" as some of you right now.

    Like he's the only problem.

    I am now about to take a sabbatical from this forum and some of you fools.

    As for the others, I apologize but I can't take the shitty with the great right now. And I am finding that I have less good to say about some of you than bad. And it's tough to be a "Saint" when that's the case.

    Later boys,

    Matt

    Koivu is hardly the only problem, but he's the most glaring problem. This is compounded by the fact that he is supposed to be the leader of the team, and great leaders lead by example.
