Yeah because a 56/57 in two games and a shutout in your 2nd career playoff game as a rookie makes it seem that way right 8-).


After seeing the demise of Andrew Raycrofts career, and looking at what Carey Price is doing now compared to last season, it's hard for me to get excited over a young goalie.

Now, with that being said, I would not want to face this hot washington goal-tender in the next round.

Griff, you're so amazing! Sign my arm so I can get it tattooed. While you continue playing Miss Cleo I'll be telling you to **** off each and every time; you're so impressive being the pompous tool you are. Have fun trading away Kaberle, Luke and the rest of your team for Tavares. You guys are going to look AWESOME next year.

By the way Snayr, on Wednesday, try and see if there's a van parked outside of the gas station next to Baton Rouge, right across the street from the Bell Centre. He was selling amazing shirts for 10$ a pop. My personal favourite:

sorry shoon i had to take the pic out, you know the swearing code of conduct thingy

Aww its so cute when habs fans get upset and pull out the never dieing "you havent won a cup in 40 years" "hows the golfing going" remarks.

"Griff, you're so amazing! Sign my arm so I can get it tattooed. While you continue playing Miss Cleo I'll be telling you to **** off each and every time; you're so impressive being the pompous tool you are.

Ive gotten suspended for far less then that. Snayr, if you let this **** fly where anyone thats a Habs fan can come on here and spout off on another poster, then your not doing your job. Guranteed If I called Shoon a pompous Tool, id recieve a suspension withing minutes.

They made it to the conference finals in 2004, i think that's it... or was it 2006? I know an Alberta team beat them

If you're going to quote me, at least do me the service of putting it in a cute quote box. I'm not one to go and edit my posts after I say something so no worries there. But if I give a warning, I hope you have fun getting one for the baiting you've been doing over the last little while.

You think I care if im respected? I couldnt give a crap because at the end of the day most of what I say is true.

It seems like you just cant handle someone with strong opinions. Anyone that gives there opinion with some knowledge or confidence seems all the sudden to be miss cleo or a fortune teller. If you cant handle people disagreeing with you and not liking your favorite team, you shouldnt post on a message board.

I will say one thing though. Habs fans, it's not cool to boo a national anthem... not cool at all

But guys seriously, you can argue about the teams all you want. Attack the teams all you want. HOWEVER, do not attack each other. That's reasonable.

Yep, everything you say is true, resident prophet Griff. Are there going to be any upsets this year? I could use the money by making a few bets here and there.

Your powerful opinions are way too much for us to handle, it's out of controlll!

I can totally agree with this. I hate when they do it. And honestly, it starts off as a few morons booing the anthem, then a bunch of guys boo those fans to tell them to **** off, then everyone starts thinking it's cool to boo the anthem and it picks up.

In my section, we all just waved the towels and chanted Go Habs Go and screamed as loud as we could during the anthem and honestly I couldn't hear the singing at all. The crowd was deafening; it was insane. I don't think that's disrespectful, but once we cooled down the boo birds came out and ****ed everything up.

I find myself saying this a lot lately but people as a group are morons. Individually they have a chance to be decent, but once they're in a group, stupidity comes out

The crowd of 21,273 booed as the game wound down and some chanted "Carbo, Carbo," for the coach who was fired and replaced by Gainey with a month left in the season.

The same crowd had booed the U.S anthem before the game, which didn't sit well with Higgins, a New York area native

"I don't really understand it," said Higgins. "You can chant through it, but the booing thing, it's not really needed. What are they booing -- the U.S. or that Boston's from the U.S.? Either way, it doesn't make sense."

Perfectly said. I think the ones who boo the anthem seem to forget that the Habs themselves have quite a few (key) Americans on this team. Higgins, Komo, Schneider. . . hell, even Bouillon was born in the USA.

Whatever. Most french-canadiens are stuck up pricks anyways. There's a minority of them who are actually civil and will even try and talk english with you, but for the most part they're the most arrogant and disgusting people I've ever seen. And if the Habs weren't in Montreal I probably would've moved by now.

It happens in the US too though, when I was in Chicago around the time of the Winter Classic, I was at a Black Hawks/Flames game and there were idiots booing the Canadian national athem specifically because they were from Canada. They really don't realize that most of their team is also from Canada. It is annoying

All I know if the Habs players, and coaching need a complete and total overhaul. My dream off-season:

- Gainey moves back up to GM, Pat Quinn hired as head coach. Patrick Roy hired as an assistant/goaltender coach for Price and Halak.

- Re-sign Kovalev, Koivu, Tanguay, and Schneider for (hopefully) hometown discounts. Kovalev has gone on the record to say that Montreal is the happiest he's ever been in his hockey career and that playing in Canada is so much better than the US. Tanguay waved his NTC to come here, so he wants to be here. Schneider won a Cup here, he wanted to come back. Let Bouillon & Breezyby walk. Hopefully bring back Kosto to a small deal.

- Re-sign Komisarek, package him with our 1st, a prospect and the Kostitsyns for Vinny. Move Hamrlik with a future draft pick and attempt to bring back Souray.

- Bring up PK Subban.

- Throw all the cash you possibly can at Bouwmeester & Cammalleri; make offers to Sykora, Recchi, Hatcher and Weight and see who bites.

- Finally sign Shanahan. He's only been begging Gainey for a few years now to bring him to Montreal. Would have been here already if not for that cluster**** with his passport a few years back.

Tanguay, Lecavalier, Kovalev
Higgins, Koivu, Latendresse
Cammalleri, Lapierre, Recchi
Shanahan, Plekanec, Kostopoulos

Subs: Laraque, Metro, Stewart, D'Agostini, Pacioretty.

Markov, Souray
Bouwmeester, Schneider
Gorges, PK

Subs: O'Byrne, Weber.

Price
Halak


. . . sigh.

Montreal has the most beautiful girls in Canada, IMHO, until you hear them speak. They either sound like men speaking french or have that nasty accent speaking english. It's a lose/lose situation. That's why I stuck to my roots and have a native girlfriend now. :lol:
