Four games over the course of a season is not much of an NHL stint, even for a player such as Benoit Gratton. The Habs announced today that the pesky and constantly energetic forward will be heading back to the Hamilton Bulldogs, the team he has…
It could be argued that for such a talented goaltender, labelling Mathieu Garon as a ‘backup’ is a very faulty statement. However, for the time being that is what he is, a backup, to teammate and number one Jose Theodore. As he heads into his scheduled st

Though I’m sure there will be a lot of whining that the Habs lost again, let’s be perfectly honest here, they dominated the game, were the better team on this night, and probably proved some things to themselves after a long run of poorly played hockey.
Good teams find a way to win even when they’re outplayed, and this afternoon in Montreal, the Bruins claimed victory behind the stellar goaltending of Andrew Raycroft. It was an unfortunate outcome for the Habs on a day when the club celebrated the ‘Hock
