Habs Outwork Cup Champs

Five wins in a row, a pile of points up on the Sabres, and playing some very strong hockey tonight; this is the kind of situation Habs fans could only dream about at the beginning of the season. In fact, it’s always interesting to look back and review so

Playing With Fire

I dare anyone out there who might have that on tape to stay awake and watch that five times in a row. Those fans weren’t cheering the goal at the end of the night, no way! They were cheering because they were finally allowed to go home to their beds – f

THEFT!

They only played one period of good hockey, but somehow they come out with the victory tonight – one that’s incredibly important in the overall scheme of things. The Habs push three up over the Isles, nine over the Sabres and ten over the Panthers, and w

Teamwork in the System

I don’t think there’ll be too many who disagree with me when I say that, if we continue to play much as we did tonight against the Senators, we’re going to put ourselves in good position to make it to the playoffs. The kind of intensity shown tonight was

We Needed That

Thank heavens for the Rangers.

There’s nothing like playing against the team with more internal and external troubles than your own. The Rangers were booed continually, their coach jeered, and their players showed a lack of passion even Canadiens

Winds of Change

Finally some intensity shown out there – and not just for a few moments. Kudos tonight have to go to Ryder, Markov, and Komisarek; the latter having played his best game in the NHL and surely showing why he’s such a highly thought of player. It’s such a

Demoralized

This is one of those games where the individual pieces did not add up to the whole. Singly, the Habs weren’t horrible, but they failed completely to play as a team tonight. Well, that’s not globally true, but certainly after Theo stabbed the team in the

Look Out Below!!

Well, I believe that was perfect evidence of how the Habs have zero chance at the playoffs if Theo isn’t on his game. Three horrible goals to put the guys against the wall by the early moments of the third against one of the best teams in hockey – not go

Folding Like A Cheap Tent

You’re coach of a hockey team. You have two lines of players who can score goals and two other lines that rarely contribute to victory – on the scoreboard at least. You’ve got two of the more talented centres in the game, plus a few wingers who can make
