  1. The Montador part I kind of understand because of the salary cap, but why an additional player?!
  2. I hope Murray shows s.t. to justify his call-up. He should be more than a match for that A-hole Avery, but I'd like to see more
  3. I hope that Garon does not start the "out of this world against my former team" shit that so many ex-habs seem to do. We really need to get a win :ghg::ghg::ghg:
  4. Worrell has an alcohol problem. He has several DWI convictions-- that's prob why nobody has picked him up. I'd like to see a little more of Ivanaas before we give up on him. Besides Avery is not heavyweight...I'd like to see Stevie B kick his ignorant ass
  5. Why would calgary give up two players??
  6. Name me an NHL GM who hasnt made a mistake. So far BG's seem to be of the minor variety. Let's hope this trend continues
  7. I agree Habs 1197. And what's with this knocking of Gerard Gallant? A coach changing lines... who woulda thunk it?? That's what they get paid to do: find the winning combination. Sometimes when the team is struggling because their best, or second-best player is missing, the coach juggles the lines more to try to find who will step up or to give the team a lift. Give Gallant a break. If they had Nash the CBJ would be winning a lot more. And if AK hadn't been hurt CJ would be winning more and not juggling the lines so much either
  8. I agree with M&K. I don't see the upside to this trade. You dont trade players when they are devalued unless you really have no choice.
  9. Dave, I thought of replying with all sorts of uncomplimentary remarks when I read the title of your post. BUT, everyone is entititled to their opinion What I will say is this: 1. Give your head a shake( sorry, I couldn't resist). 2. It is way too early for that kind of criticism. Gainey has put his stamp on the team, but it is early days in this process. 3. The D is improving. Markov is excellent, Rivet solid; Bullion solid; Komi improving; Dandenault, his fine defensive play and versatility make him invaluable; Souray ??? but I think he will turn it around. Streit is struggling. Maybe Gainey should have kept Hainsey, but he obviously didnt base his decision on the waiver rules but on his and CJ's evaluation of the players performance in camp. Perhaps that was a mistake. But, I like the idea of talent as the first determiner. 4. Nobody's perfect. The team is infinitely better than when BG took over. 5. I, for one, am confident that BG will make a deal to bolster the d when the right deal comes around and/or he determines that the present group has progressed as far as they are going to go 6. Keep the faith buddy. Every team has highs and lows. Les Boys will come out of this losing streak soon :ghg: [Edited on 2005/11/30 by PMAC]
  10. Thanks for the applause guys. I was just doing my little bit to support a great site. I mean those other guys got a whole article; I thought we deserved equal time. Bulis, I dont have any relatives in MTL that I know, but my paternal grandmother was French Canadian so it's certainly possible. MacLeod is a Gaelic name, both Irish and Scottish, with variable spellings although the Irish tend to drop the "a".
  11. I dont know which irritates me more: the fact that we lost a potentially good young player for nothing or the fact that we(or at least GG) have to pay for the privilege:mad:
  12. I emailed this is response to his article on online Habs fans(he referred to an "unknown" player people on that site were eager to get rid of): Dear Dave: That was a nice article, but I urge you to check out www.habsworld.net which I think is the premier Habs discussion site on the net and where most people don’t think they can do a better job than Bob, but are equally (for the most part) eager to get Daginais out of the line-up. From here in the UAE, Habsword, The Gazette and CJAD allow me to feed my Habs addiction. Regards Paul MacLeod Lecturer, The Petroleum Institute Abu Dhabi, UAE
  13. I did it. Abu Dhabi, where I live, is the capital city of the United Arab Emirates. A week or so ago Dave Stubbs of the Gazette did an article on Online Habs fans. I thought that his leaving out HabsWorld was a glaring ommission, so I emailed him to give him my opinion, that any discussion of Habs fans on the Internet should include us. I thought, since he didn't reply, he was ignoring me but that must not be the case. I havent seen the article yet because I'm in the middle of a self-imposed media blackout. I'm going to watch a delayed broadcast of the Grey Cup(tonight, tues) and it has been torture trying to resist the temptation to peek Glad to hear that the Gazette is taking us Habs fans opinions seriously

    Quebeqois: I was speaking historically. I can still remember MTL getting whipped by EDM in the '70's except for 1977(Thank you Tony Proudfoot)
  15. Bullis the Habbie, I can't believe you said that " ... If we beat Ottawa, I don't mind losing to Toronto." I ALWAYS hate losing to TO. I hope that Habs will play at least .500 hockey in this 4 game stretch, but two losses in a row to the Laughs will make me retch:puke:
  16. Unless I missed something, Dag's scoring ability won us the last game. If he continues to contribute-- with almost zero ice time-- why not reward him. Phooey on the ADP
  17. Thats what I said " Then AS provided some relief..." AS= Andre Savard

    I'd be happy to see MTL in the GC every year. I dont think that the novelty would wear off anytime soon. But Why do they always have to play...and usually lose to... @*@*@#!!**&%^ Edmonton?
  19. The problem was that we gave up three NHLers and got back Recchi and a draft pick. At the time LeClair and Dionne still had tons of upside and Desgardins was a top defenseman. It sucked and Houles follow-up trade made it even harder to bear. Then AS provided some consolation l by getting Bullis, Zed and Zhog for Darius what's his name
  20. Uh, yeh, he he Dags for Gauthier, that's the ticket. In our dreams. Dags isnt going anywhere except Hamilton, unless his play picks up. Hopefully CJ will find a way to utilize his limited skills on the power-play. Having experienced the handicap of a lack of speed in sports myself, i feel sorry for the guy, but he would help his cause a lot by learning to position himself to compensate for his deficiencies

    the last prediction I made was 5-3 MTL over NJ and we all know what happened next...sooo, I'll go back to my superstitious ways and avoid predictions.
  22. Who is/was the moron? Richer or Corson?

    I am pumped that the Als are going to the Grey Cup again, but why does it always have to be against the !@%%^#**!!!! Eskimutts? I HATE Edmonton. I hope the defense can kick their ass. BTW, even a biased broadcast beats not being able to see the action. I like CJAD's coverage but its just not the same as TV> Damned Fox Sports screwed me over again:wall:
  24. Quote What I think is that there is concern here on how the team is losing. I agree that the team could and should be playing better. However, it is virtually impossible for any team to play well for all 80 games. I won't start to worry unless the losing streak continues. [Edited on 2005/11/20 by PMAC]
