  1. Well, its not right up there with starving children on the 'serious ' list, but a little prayer for les Boys is probably not the worst thing one can do. So, amen.
  2. Life will be so much easier at work tomorrow...
  3. I could never get chemistry. Physics.. no problem..
  4. I sure hope Plex gets a good wind in his sails this year. He is a terrific player when he's flying, and Price made some great stops. Go Habs GO!
  5. We were the hottest thing on ice not long ago. Last year Gainey iced an excellent squad, but Lang's and other serious setbacks shifted the weight of expectation onto the shoulders of a rookie kid goalie. POOF! Man proposes, Allah disposes.
  6. Well said. You were a great Canadien Patrice with a wonderful spirit and great talent. Thanks for all the wonderful hockey with the best team in the world. You did us and you proud and I salute you. :hlogo:
  7. There certainly seemed to be energy and determination out there Hell of a pair.
  8. I'm glad I checked the board, cuz I would have missed the game on RDS! Thanks beaucoup!
  9. Lang was excellent last year. I too would love to see him back.
  10. That was the point of my worthless post.
  11. Thanks for the encouraging comments. Yours really added a lot and I appreciate the friendly gesture.
  12. Hi matsnaslandsuperfn I live not far too far from that facility which is a facility for teens that got some funding from the Ontario gov't a few years back. I'd be very surprised if there were anything specifically religious ....and I'm a Catholic incidentally, at such a team function. I most certainly think we are all well advised to attend to the sound and healthy principles of natural law, and this is, if I remember my philosophy courses at U of T, an intelligible ordering that theism makes sense of, but these practical principles which are part of a happy life, would not likely be presented in a manner beyond the common sense approach they encourage. If I were on the team, I'd want to know where a mass was being celebrated on Sunday, but anything much beyond that from the organization would be pretty intrusive, even for me. Martin, may or may not be a religious guy... I have no idea, but outside of some formally religoius institution like Notre Dame University, even a team prayer would not dount be a little alienating for some, and a sound religious principle wouild be sensitive to this. So, something more inclusive would be more appropriate, say, like suggesting that those who pray, which is a hell of a lot of people, might want to ask God for a wonderful exciting season. Not too many folks would take exception to that as some 90% of Canadians believe quite reasonably that there must be some kind of 'supreme being', or Aristotle's Unmoved Mover. God bless Uncle Bob and les Habs!
  13. God bless RDS. Living in Toronto is bearable as three times a week...way too many games for the sport...but I hate to give one up.... good old RDS, wipes away the blue, the leafy and sychophantic....and gives me les glorieux. I'd have to move if I lost them! :hlogo:
  14. HAHAHA! No Country for Young Men.
  15. Patrice played a hell of a lot of good hockey for les Canadiens. Merci beaucoup Patrice; you were a sgnificant part of a great and continuing story and I enjoyed watching you play.
