Go Habs Go!

I think it was when the Florida Panthers fired him. But yes, it was classless.
Oui......après son congédiement de la FLORIDE....MAIS avec VEGAS il avait été très décu.....son équipe se retrouvait en tête de sa division....MAIS venait de subir 4 défaites.....alors bye bye....plutôt cavalier...il avait été invité une semaine auparavant au match des étoiles
.....c'est certain qu'ill aurait encore sa place ici.

Oui, il s'est fait barouetté à quelques endroits malheureusement......en tout cas, Gallant derrière le banc avec St-Louis Hugues dément, mais ce serait une très bonne addition.
Sinon, enfin une victoire, dans un festival offensif. 4 points pour Suzuki, 3 points pour Slaf.
Et Cole a scoré.....2 fois.....meilleur compteur de la LNH en date du 11 novembre, souhaitons que ça continue.

His pace has cooled to 61.5 goals, but that would be good for the team record for goals in one season.
Marty St. Louis can relax his neck muscles tonight.
True. I forgot he left the Habs to coach FLA. Strange he’s already coached three teams in just a small number of years.
Great to know that Nico Hiechier & William Nylander are also on pace to score 60 goals this season. I have both of them in my pool. I also have Ovechkin who’s been on a tear lately & will likely beat Gretzky’s record this season!
Habs vs Wild tonight. The habs haven’t won in Minnesota since March 11, 2011. Maybe it’s a good time to place a bet on a hockey game. The Wild are playing very good hockey this season. Unfortunately Marc-Andre Fleury will not get the start for the Wild. Montembault gets the start for Mtl. I hope never to see Cayden Primeau get another start again for the habs!
Suzuki will centre the top line between Slafkovski & Dach tonight. The plan is to keep Suzuki & Caufield on different lines & only put them together on the powerplay.
By the way Buffalo picked up veteran goalie James Reimer on waivers yesterday. Montreal could have claimed him but chose to pass on him which i think was another mistake by Hughes-Gorton. He would have been a very good backup for Montembault & at least give the habs a chance to compete. Primeau is not an NHL calibre goalie & couldn’t even stop a cab of he wanted to! He belongs in Laval however if he’d be in Laval he’d take starts away from future hab goalie Jakub Dobes, who needs to play a lot. So maybe that’s why Hughes-Gorton would rather sacrifice wins by sticking with Primeau in order to give Dobes busy in Laval. But i still believe Reimer would have been perfect for them right now.

I am surprised he is even still in the league. He shared goaltending duties for the Leafs with Jonathan Bernier from around 2013-2015. Maybe Montreal can pick up Bernier instead?

He’s one of those bible thumping freaks so maybe that’s the reason for his longevity. He’s been with many teams around the league like Florida, Carolina, Detroit, San Jose & so on. One night at a game I met his wife April when he played for the Leafs. She was a hottie at the time. Very nice girl but another bible-thumper like her husband.
Same story: Habs lose again. This time by a score of 3-0. For the second time in their last three games they only had two shots in a period. Tonight it happened in the first period. Hard to win games when you have only two shots in a period & fail to score any goals. This is going to be a very long season if the Habs don’t make any trades to help the team. Especially if they don’t acquire a veteran backup goalie to help Monty. As for the chronic lack of scoring Raphael Harvey- Pinard is not the answer.
Hard to believe Philly came back to beat the Sens in a game greatly dominated by Ottawa. Ullmark having a terrible year so far. Terrible goal he let in in OT. Ottawa gave him a shitload of money. I wonder if they didn’t grossly overpay another goalie. Is Ottawa the place good goalie careers go to die or is it where average goalies go to get rich?
In other news Boston got beat pretty bad again. This is a team that looks average & soft. Not sure Montgomery lasts the season. Hearing he hasn’t yet been re-signed because someone told current associate coach & long-time Bruins assistant Joe Sacco to stay patient & that Montgomery’s job is his if they end up either firing him or not re-signing him. Who knows maybe GM Steve Kasper may be the one getting the ax instead.
And…Bolts beat the Peg!

They won’t, not this year. Hugues has been very clear about it this week. It’s not the right time to do it.
Next year he’ll say the same thing. To be honest so far Hughes hasn’t shown me anything. He hasn’t shown me that he’s up to the job. Since he’s been on the job his teams have regressed. I doubt the fans will put up with the team finishing near the basement for ten years. The danger of playing losing hockey year after year is that players get used to losing. The bigger danger is losing the fan base. For example i know people in Buffalo who were once huge Sabres fans but losing year after year has led to them stopping to watch hockey for good. They just don’t care anymore & they couldn’t even name a single Sabres player playing today. They totally tuned out & found other things to do. When the building starts emptying out in Montreal heads are going to start rolling. If this happens don’t be surprised if the team ends up being put to sale. Owning & running a team is quite a bit of fun but not when you lose year after year & you have the fans & media asking for your head.
Only 2 teams in the NHL have given up 70 goals, Montreal and Pittsburgh. The Habs remain tied for last in the NHL in points and dead last in goal differential after their shutout loss last night. Something has to be done about the goal prevention. The Nylander goal in which he skated through the entire team, using them as pylons, highlighted what has become a severe problem.
Le seul qui donne un show c'est HUTSON....au moins lui se donne à 100%...oui commet des erreurs....MAIS on lui pardonne en ta quand on le compare aux autres...lol.....c'est bien peu et ça explique beaucoup de choses.
