Love Them Anyways

They’ve lost two games in a row. Their two top snipers have a combined one goal in their past nine games, and the man who’s made everything come together on the backend is now facing a knee injury. Things are rough at the moment, sure, but there are more

Souray Goes Down, Beauchemin Goes Up

Injuries have been an all too familiar occurance in the career of Sheldon Souray. And lucky for him, what is being diagnosed as a sprained knee will not keep him out for nearly as long as previous injuries have. The early report? The Canadiens announced t
