Danno, thanks for the tape link,–Day glow hockey tape . If they put a CH of this tape, in the middle of all their sticks, there would be no excuse for putting the pass into feet.
Chuck! nice little article, but what if they just paint a hunter orange CH, in the middle of all the players blade of the sticks to aim at. Should be able to pick it up pretty slick and hit it with the pass.!
38 years ago today larry robinson played his first game as a hab. Two years before that with the kitchener rangers,he was moved from center to defence.
I find it extremely disengenious (spelling?) of Sid to talk about head shots. Is he not captain of the Pens? Has he called out Cooke for his head shots? They all seem to love him on the Pens.
I agree. Eller should go and play 20 minutes a game and light up the AHL for a bit. Look what it did for Pacioretty. He had zero confidence and didn’t look good at all before they sent him down, and now he looks like a completely different, NHL ready player. Bringing up Ryan White would at least at some toughness to the team, and fill the “void” left by Lapierre.
The Leafs after half the season have only 4 more losses than the vaunted Habs.
Yet the Leafs are a poorly run franchise and the butt of jokes by the majority of HIO posters. And the Habs? Oh the Habs are on the cusp of greatness by the hands of G&G.
4 more losses!
It seems the measure of greatness has taken a big tumble since the days of Bowman and Pollack.
Tanking? G&G may do it inadvertently. LOL

Forget Habs-Leafs rivals, the millenium is for the Habs-Bruins. Exciting rivals of our times now.
I wonder if Marchand will keep his head up tonite when PK ..is on the ice .
why read and feed this troll?
Thomas gets the start for the Bruins while Horton is doubtful. If he can’t go, Ryder will probably take his place on the top line.
Why feed the troll ?
No thank you, would much rather someone with speed if they cost that much.
Eager got 4 games from Bettman, but this from everyone outside of Toronto:

I wonder what Cherry will have to say about good ol’ Canadian boys like Eager and Kostopolous taking nasty shots against vulnerable guys.

…..per eklund hahaha
….per eklund hahaha
Agreed..but White is not as good as Lapierre…and has been playing pretty bad in the AHL, even before his injury.
I think you’re on to something Ian. Day glow hockey tape should do the trick.
“Hey Richard, two minutes for looking so good!”
disingenuous

You know, if Arnott can play the wing, he wouldn’t be a terrible addition. I can envision a Holmstrom-type role for him on the PP.
You never publicly call out a team mate dude. We have no idea what Crosby feels about the hit and Cooke personally.
This is pretty much the rule in team sports. Not saying it is right but that is the way it is. Crosby may very well have talked to Cooke privately.

Request please.!
Andree and I are heading
to Brossard Monday, to play around Mtl. for a week or so. We are going
to the Pittsburgh game on the 12th.
Does anyone know if there are any out door rinks around St. Lambert or Brossard so we can skate.?
In the 60′s, St. Lambert had about 7. I use to make ice and take care of the chalet for 4 winters.
I have been gone a long time, I do not know if they still have them.??
Anyone live around there.??
PS. –Is there skating on Beaver lake on the mountain.??
No worries about tonight, folks! The Habs have the answer:
Centre Hice: Habs’ new training aid gets a “passing” grade
Why do people still read Eklund?
38 years ago today larry robinson played his first game as a hab. Two years before that with the kitchener rangers,he was moved from center to defence.
Ben Eager is my hero.
Not happening (e5)
Eklund sucks (e6)
lol…anything is possible.
so he’ll end up with NYI?
- Gomez is holding down the suck button
Jason Arnott to Habs…per Eklund(e4)
I find it extremely disengenious (spelling?) of Sid to talk about head shots. Is he not captain of the Pens? Has he called out Cooke for his head shots? They all seem to love him on the Pens.
Maybe he’ll pull a stamkos
watch the game from upstairs for a few games
then come down and become a better player

Since “tank” had nothing to do with the original thread sir. I feel it is you who have trouble following the lead.
But then again that is understandable, since you never lead a thread, only contribute semi witty bon mots to what others have contributed.
What do you really think about the Habs? Of course making that known invites critical responses. Better to sit on the sidelines. Eh?

Oh really? You are certain this team is better without these players?
Punkster, you really do yourself a disservice wasting your valuable insights on HIO, when it would be better served in some NHL management position.
G&G made the decisions to dump these aforementioned players so it is a certainty it was correct? Here I thought only God was infallible.

I do like Eller, he just needs to find some finish, I also like what I’ve seen of White.
White might bring in some bang but it is moot if we don’t get the offence going on a regular basis.
….Hab4life….
Better off without them, that’s certain.
***Subbang!!!***
(sigh) You can’t even follow the conversation TX.
***Subbang!!!***
Nag is right, all you do is nag nag nag about the same thing
Some are easy to please.
You would make a great Leafs fan. Although I suppose when you set your sights so low it is difficult to ever be disappointed.
There are still a few Hab’s fans that do demand a bit more.
