Update: Bruins’ Marchand rips Habs
• At a Glance: At the end of the day, the result of Tuesday night’s game between the Bruins and Canadiens was secondary. Yes, the Canadiens won 4-1, but all the attention, rightly so, was turned to the health of Max Pacioretty, who was carted off the ice on a stretcher after a vicious hit by Bruins captain Zdeno Chara. Lars Eller scored two goals in the first period to lift his team into a 2-0 lead. Both goals were the result of Eller going to net, and his second one was particularly nice. The Canadiens went to work on the power play in the second period, scoring twice to double their lead. Brian Gionta scored his 24th goal of the season 7:15 into the period when his shot eluded Tuukka Rask and dribbled over the goal line. At the 15:09 mark, James Wiesniewki was given plenty of room to wind up and fired a laser through Rask, who had no chance on it. Milan Lucic ended Carey Price’s shutout bid 13:21 into the third period with his 29th goal of the season. Price still made 30 saves for his league-leading 32nd win of the season. Pacioretty was selected as the game’s third star and received a warm ovation from the fans.
• Key Moments: With 16 seconds to play in the second period, Chara crushed Pacioretty into the glass partition between the two benches. Pacioretty lay motionless on the ice for several minutes, and was take off by stretcher. Chara was thrown out of the game and will likely have a meeting with the NHL over the hit. The Gazette’s Dave Stubbs reported via Twiiter during the third period that Pacioretty was conscious, and all limbs moving. He was sent to hospital for observation. RDS is reprting that Pacioretty will remain in hospital overnight for observation.
• What It Means: The Canadiens have won five straight and improve to 37-24-7 for 81 points, securing their hold on sixth place in the Eastern Conference and bringing them to withing three points of the Bruins for first place in the Northeast Division.
• What’s Next: The Canadiens hit the road for games in St. Louis on Thursday and a Saturday afternoon matchup with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

But they are stilling ripping him.
Funny stuff
if you have a chance, USA TODAY, today’s issue, has an interesting and fairly prominent article on NHL concussions.
Considering how little attention they give hockey in general, it’s pretty high profile.
It’s sometimes interesting to see what the US papers write about hockey. Nothing revelatory, just an overview of things, but maybe worth a peak.
I have shaved my head for years so now the wig is on the other head, so to speak.
….Hab4life….
Habs are icing a strong team. Anyone have the line-up?
I just hope Halpern is not on the first line… great guy just not the right fit for there. We need someone else who is dangerous.
Subban has more fights that Lucic this year, and he still gets no disrespect.
Actually he has one, and he lost it to Andrew Cogliano.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
I noticed Subban when he played for Belleville in 2006 season. I brought my son to an Ottawa 67 game against Belleville, but interestingly I started loving to watch an aspiring player from the Bulls team, whose name is PK Subban.
I was so happy when Subban became a Hab in 2007 Entry Draft…
Newsflash!:
Gomez -15, 32 points is not having much of a season…. compared for example to Plekanec +14, 51 points.
See my post above for me response to you fantasy-gomez guys.
Maybe Halpern-Pleks-Cami will catch fire, but I don’t think so. We need an energy/physical presence on that line to knock pucks loose.. not an aging vet.
This idiot’s comment has been deleted due to lack of common sense on his part.
double bubble
Haven’t seen that before… a comment CHANGED once it’s been replied to. And by someone not afraid to go out on a limb themselves. Who did this?
I totally agree, Ian. I met him a few years ago at the Bull’s summer golf tounament, and he was polite, respectful and very approachable. After I left, I thought to myself, what a great kid, his parents must be proud of him.
Notice when these so called super star vets start whining about him, it’s usually the day after PK shut them down and made them look ordinary. As for the supposed chirping, well if it’s getting under their skin, then he’s doing his job.
I’d love to see him line up Richards.
I see a lot of posts that include Sopel in our list of tough players in for tonight… I’m not sure if I’m missing something (hope I am) but I haven’t seen him being particularly aggressive in his breif history with our Habs. When people rush Price, I don’t see him pushing them away forcefully and his hockey fights card makes it seem as though he hasn’t fought since 06-07 (http://www.hockeyfights.com/players/483)
Is Sopel a guy that will drop them, eagerly? Or is he a guy who happens to have dropped them in the past, but doesn’t necessarily ‘enjoy’ doing it?
Sadly, the only time the NHL gets coverage in the US, it invariably has a negative aspect to it. Violence and brawls on the ice for example.
The NHL is promoted as a quasi legitimate sport like roller derby and wrestling. Hopefully one day mainstream America will appreciate the beauty, speed and skill inherent in the game. Not holding my breath though.
Who do you insert though, White? Moen I think we’ve all had enough of in the Top-6 and AK is flying along with Eller. One could try Max-pac but he’s a natural LW and he’s been at his best playing that position, he isn’t supplanting Cammy at #1 LW position.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
Lets not forget bacteria, viruses, toxins, accidents, genetics, and the complex and f-d up environment we live in. Oh yeah, and just basically bad luck. Besides all that, I agree with you sort of at least.
You’re right on the mark as usual Ian. I saw him play a lot against the Generals in the OHL as well.
I think what bothers guys like Richards and company is that they used to be able to walk into Montreal, over the last decade, and win the majority of the games.
Recently, Montreal has a new attitude, led by guys like Subban, and it drives them crazy. Not only does Richards have to worry about the Pens and Caps causing him problems but now the Canadiens are right there too.
Many Habs haters were happy to see the team relatively harmless going back over ten years but now that they’re on the cusp of becoming great, it’s a hard pill to swallow!
I think putting an agitator like Ryan White on that line might create some space for Pleks and Cammi.
Let me explain. And I will type slowly so you can understand it. It is a machine for the hospital to aid in the care of cancer patience.
It is on here because I will not get to see the game and a cause like cancer is the only thing that would prevent me from missing a game.
Got it?

“Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.”
I threw in a handful of votes but I’m not sure it took after the first 2 or 3. They can limit that with a cookie.
Anyway, good comments. Funny stuff.
Mostly you can see that the Bruin fans don’t know hockey.
exactly
I hate it but you have to leave MaxPac with Gomez. He’s the one guy who seems to be able to generate points with Gomer as his center so he has to stay there. And as you say, Kostitsyn-Eller seems to work too…. and not Moen (as you also point out)… so - I have it! Move Gill up! Big net-crashing body, on a points streak. Yes, that will work.
Yep! Here’s what I said earlier:
Having an honest and estimable plugger-grinder (Halperin) on one of the top lines is dragging the centre’s (Pleks) production down — like Moen did for Gomez earlier this season.
What are JM’s alternatives?
You are JM: what do you do
Speakin of, a quip of hers today: “Charlie Sheen’s brain cells are just like the cast of Celebrity Apprentice. As of today, there are only 15 left.”
I hope the lines are:
Gio-Gomez-MaxP
Cammy-Plex-Halpern
AK-Eller-Moen
Pouliot-DD-White
The same as they’ve been for the last 6 games that we have 22 goals for and 13 against. We have 4 balanced lines and people seem to not realize that the cammy, Plex, Halpern line is a good shut down line against other top lines with the speed and skill to attack the other net.
If the lines are not this, I will be totally shocked.
I’m just curious; but, what do you think PG could get, in terms of draft choices, for both PK & CP?
4 first round picks?
2 1st & 2 2nd?
Just wondering…
That may be the best option (see below), and White would LOVE it and you wanna believe he’d provide the energy that line needs.
The NHL is promoted as a quasi legitimate sport like roller derby and wrestling.
And that’s just on nhl.com!
or a wedgie
My favourite is how he talked after the February 9th game about Subban being a chicken because he wouldn’t fight. Marchand has ZERO career pro fights. I want Marchand to fight Subban.
I love how he’s making things up, claiming that Montreal players were throwing the first punches. Someone tell this kid about hockeyfights.com.
I hope subban gets him again that little weasel
A Pink Slip!
Tony M. is joining one of Boston’s sport talk stations next, he’ll be talking with the same losers that go into it with Hickey. Should be good.
I normally don’t say things like this, because I’m not big on fighting in hockey, but I really really really hope someone caves in Marchand’s face. Like not a little scrap where he loses, but knock some teeth out and have him miss some games.
He would get a contract put on his life. He would be kucky to get out of town alive.
Ian since you have seen him much; how was PK groomed in junior, given the green light to rush at any time or much like in the nhl> learn the defensive side of game first……..he’s definately being held back from doing more ofensively……..interesting to see how he developed in junior
Yeah, but that was the exact argument used to justify putting Moen with the Gomez-Gio line — and that screwed Gomez AND Gio up for months, until they got an player who has actual, you know, SECOND LINE SKILLS. Moen is awesome as a 3rd-4th liner & PK player — as is White & Halperin. So keep them there.
Related is common failure of fan-boi-ness: a player looks great on 3rd or 4th line…so that fanbois want to elevate him to the top 6. They see the 3rd – 4th liner getting points there & assume he’ll get even more points on the top 6. Well, it don’t work that way. Two-way pressure and quality of opposition is WAY higher up there: the 3rd-4th liner success comes in large part from the top 6 doing all the heavy lifting against the opponents big guns.
More like an execution by firing squad…
Just came across this article about Fats, I mean Lats…
http://www.hockeywilderness.com/2011/2/27/2016720/nhl-trade-deadline-talk-2011-the-guillaume-latendresse-factor
I love how they cry all over him for not being given the chance in Montreal. Boo-hoo.
It’s funny, being from Halifax, you’d think I’d like Marchand, but in fact I know him so well, I have to hate his guts. I won’t even get into how he ruined the locker room the year the Mooseheads traded a boatload of picks for him, and we self destructed by the 2nd round.
Back to the Habs, after the brawl game I saw a quote for Marchand saying something to the effect of PK was lucky the refs jumped in, or Lucic would have killed him… All I could think was what a gutless coward this kid is… Marchand is the one with beef with PK, PK is the one that laid him out, and know his hiding behind bigger men on his team hoping they beat up PK for him.
It’s disgusting to me, he should either fight PK himself, or keep his rat mouth shut. And for those who might want to point out the discrepancy in size between PK and Marchand, they might want to consider the discrepancy in size between Lucic and PK, or anyone else Lucic has layed out from behind for that matter… hell by that logic, Chara would only ever be allowed to fight Tyler Myers or Derek Boogard.
did I mention I hate everything Boston?

A mistake maybe, SD, but not a lie ;–)
The lie, I think, is in the numbers.
I seem to be exaggerating Gomez’s favourable position for the natural reason that I am arguing against people who are hyper-exaggerating his unfavourable one. In other words, there is absolutely no context provided for Gomez’s situation thsi year, every negative situation is over-emphasised, and every favourable situation binned (honourable exceptions like Mr Berkshire — no Gomez auto-booster — yesterday pointing out Gomez’s leading takeaway stats.)
I stand by what I say in the post above (& which isn’t addressed.) Gomez gets solid linemates and he produces. He gets Halperin-AK-Pouliot-Moen and he doesn’t produce. If Pleks got such superior numbers with AK….THEN AK WOULD BE PLEK’S LINEMATE RIGHT NOW!!! (Justified shouting there ;–) Same with Pouliot.
Just sayin’ that Gomez lack of production corresponds EXACTLY with his lack of stable quality linemates. Now that Pleks is in Gomez’s former situation, Pleks (whom I love) is in Gomez’s former production situation.
Sauce for the goose is saunce for the gander, dude.
Crikey, this is Montreal. Why is the concept of “good lines” so alien to so many now? Richard hits his stride only when he gets set with solid linemates. Lafleur with Lemaire & Shutt.
I wonder if Pouliot could use his propensity to fall as a strategic weapon tonight. As in, collapsing in full flight while in the vicinity of Chara or Lucic and wiping one or both of them in one of those unfortunate mishabs he’s occasionally prone to. Think of it as two sports in one: hockey and bowling for dullards.
PS: +/- is different but 32 to 51 is hardly a yawning chasm. At the current rate, and current line matching, Gomez could overtake Pleks no problem.
And I hate this type of argument anyway: why can’t I love Gomez and Pleks — and every other Hab — alike, & celebrate their different attributes? Using Pleks as a stick to beat a teamate with is not the kind of fandom I like…
I got blocked for placing too many votes. I hace to wait through a cooling off period.
Carey’s ahead of Thomas 59.51% to 40.15% – in a poll on a Bruins site in Boston lol. Thanks for the heads-up on this, Bugs. My credo – vote early and vote often!
Fan since ’71
As a Gunners supporter I respectively disagree. Barca plays tactical and dominating football and i respect their first side, but i won’t lose sleep if they don’t go through.
Going to the game tonight boys!! Should be a good one!
I love them all, until the day they change jersey’s
Brad Marchand is a little s**t that talks a lot of trash, he is just upset that he got laid out by PK the game before when he is the one skating with his head down.
Rob, you got to start looking at the player from a different angle, you may just see how good he is every shift. You Dogs are so close to the ground, stand on a chair or something my friend.!
Hahaha “we sweeped you two years ago”
Very sad that this is how you would respond to an act of charity.
HUDSONHAB: we should have more people on this site like you, unlike the dummy who made a smart remark regarding your comment to raise money mor a cancer machine maybe his turn will come….
sorry about the spelling mistake meant to say..to raise money for a cancer machine.
He was so fast, he could go deep and by the time the puck was turned over to the other team, he was back in position on the D. He has started to catch on, that the NHL is a lot faster, and he now does not get caught here as much now.
He has adjusted well, with lots more to learn. But he will be a good as any D that has played at this level. Just a little time.
Here are the rules for the Anaheim Ducks blog. We are lucky, these would just about shut us down! Especially the joking about tragedies (like losses, or Gomez, or JM….)
1. Keep it civil and stay on topic.
2. No profanity, vulgarity, racial slurs or personal attacks.
3. People who harass others or joke about tragedies will be blocked.
Thanks
Tony did well. Felger is horrible, he just screams and repeats things to make it so. Not a shred of tangible evidence to support his crazy theory.
This would be poetic justice:
No mayhem, just play ‘em, and slay ‘em tonight
No bashing, no slashing, no smashing – that’s right
Just meet ‘em, defeat ‘em, and not even fight
Just caught Liam Neeson’s Unknown. Bit of a blend of The Bourne Identity, Frantic, and The Formula. The movie does, in fact, hold up quite well. Bein’ a fan of the genre, among others, appreciate when there aren’t plot gaps you can drive a Zamboni through.
If I had to critique it, January Jones is cute but can’t act. Her character almost seems like an offshot of the mildly ditzy one she plays on Mad Men. Betty Rubble would have been far more convincin’ in the role of a trained assassin.
The relevance to the Habs?
There’s a scene at the end where Neeson says somethin’ to Aidan Quinn along the lines of, “I remember everythin’, asshole.” Then he takes him out.
Know what I mean?
SubBANG, baby!
Thanks Bugsy – on my way over. I’ll vote til I’m blocked and then do it all over again once I get home from work. ;o)
………..
“Thank you Cammy for making my day even more amazing!”
I STILL BELIEVE. I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE.
Cammalleri: “I almost feel bad for a guy who plays an NHL career without experiencing what it’s like to be a Montreal Canadien”.
check out the movie SALT …
Didn’t he say he doesn’t like movies with plot holes that you can drive a zamboni through? The last 15 minutes of that movie were absolutely terrible…
So let me get this straight. PK talks trash on the ice in the heat of the moment, half the league is up in arms calling him a ‘disrespectful rookie’, and Brad Richards is strongly hinting that someone should take him out. Marchand goes WAAAAY further in his PUBLIC trash talking and no one says a peep? Hmmmm…what could be the difference here….?
that whole movie was garbage.
Everything in this comment is rigth except for using it against someone raising money for charity. Good hearts. Good peeps. Drug dealers they are, but the people suffering, or the who care enough to raise money for sufferers don’t deserve your scorn for the system. come on man.
that said, cancer is man made and its a sad truth that most of us dont care to face. we do it to ourselves. or we are done in by horrible substances being allowed into our food and products.. alas
you cant possibly be applying that chara – a human – did not know that pacioretty (also a human) had a head that rested on the top of his body, which just happened to be the body he was rubbing out on the end of the bench and into the turn buckle?
*implying
Love Chara saying that Max “jumped & leaned into the stantion”
I guess we should be happy that max got away with a dive.
I hope that is true. I can’t imagine how Max’s mom, dad, and family must feel at this moment.
maxpac didnt have the puck and was nowhere near it when the julien coached thug hit him———-END OF STORY AND HIS BS EXCUSE!
I want these assholes in the playoffs.
That is all.
When he’s stalked the guy for three games now trying to maim him, this is as pre-meditated and as intentional as the Bertuzzi assault that put Moore in a wheelchair. Imagine if that was Gill doing it to Bergeron?
Did you? While I was watching TSN stated he didn’t talk to the media at all, on the bus before the end of the 3rd….
Ok. We’re all upset, but for those of you who say PG, BG and JM bear no responsibility for this fine. But the NHL is not going to fix this for the playoffs, so I hope you are ready for a quick exit if we play Phil or Boston.
BG knew better, of course which is why he got you know who, which didn’t work out but that doesn’t mean BG was wrong
Makes me even madder reading junk like that comment. We need to just ignore those idiots Rudy.
The Washington Times, The Washington Examiner, The New York Post, most Wall Street Journal editorials, etc, etc.
Get well Pach’s!!!!!!!! Our thoughts are with you.
Chara will get nothing cause the league won’t do anything to a playoff team. I ask you this as a fan…what is more dangerous the 9 games Gilies got for the supposed hit to the head after his team was hit from behind or someone shoving someone head first into a post?
The Colin Campbell will make me hate him even more tomorrow when nothing happens.
That big son of a b…. Chara. Any bikers want to make a few bucks out there! You are invited to Chara’s house for coffee.
They ran at P.K., Price also, all night, our rookies make them look like crap with their play and speed. Boston can’t play the game so they resort to trying to injure our kids. Garbage Team and coach. Guess why we got rid of him.
Sure hope we hear a full report on Max in the morning. But the powers will keep the info to themselves.
Bettman just announced that they were prepared to move Phoenix.
From the Boston Globe: http://www.boston.com/sports/hockey/bruins/extras/bruins_blog/
“Chara is tossed from game, assessed 5:00 for interfence and given a game misconduct. Very questionable call. Hit was without malice.”
This is the same Boston Globe that says the Habs are dirty and the Bruins were simply defending themselves last game right? Got it. Typical class from Boston.
Reminds me of the scene in Slap Shot when they arrest the Hansons and Paul Newman’s claiming they were attacked and it was all self defence.
Watching thats hockey 2nite and they said that max’s agent was talking to max’s dad and said he was going to be ok!
The last time the leafs won the cup it was still just a bowl!!
Max needs to protect himself in this situation, he bears most of the responsibility for this incident, you can’t put yourself in a vulnerable position like that this is the NHL.
I can not believe I just read this on the comment section of TSN:
“Start the season with a clean equipment bag and a freah bucket of febreze!”-CharlieHodgeFan
Changing the subject – how about that Eller kid?
i did the same thing. i was posting in boone’s blog about how at first glance i didnt see the intent. to me at first it seemed like just a standard rub out as both players made a play for the puck with the turn buckle just happening to be there
then i started getting picky with my PVR – chara uses his elbow – as he looks up at the turn buckle – and drive his head into the glass
disgusting
no body can comment on what chara was thinking in his head – and im sure he will say he did not intend to hurt patches like that – but you can see that he intended to drive his head into the turn buckle
Intentional or not, Chara is gonna end up ending someone’s career or even his life..That was tough to watch..IMO, Chara knew what he was up to..
—————— Yes, I’m a Hab fan..Wanna fight about it?
That was scary. Not the scariest thing I’ve ever seen in hockey, but it still made me nauseous.Almost barfed.
While I’m certain that Chara wasn’t going out to injure MaxPac (Chara was going to be beat outside), he did have the big elbow out and forced MaxPac into the bench and glass. Chara should be punished, but it wasn’t an obvious open ice elbow hit. Perhaps Chara should finally learn that he should pick on guys his own size, 5 games minimum, but the rest of the season would fit too.
Hopefully Pacioretty will be OK, and his career will continue soon.
Yes you heard exactly that… what a disgrace
THEY HAVE ALWAYS HAD CLASSLESS PIGS LIKE CHERRY, JULIEN AND SINDEN COACHING THEM.
Fearless prediction from the batteries: league office chalks it up to a hit and while interference, bad lack from the stanchion placement, and says Chara has no history of dirty play. 1-2 games max.
You gotta be f**king kidding me..?
Great news! From Twitter,
For what it is worth, until tonight I had a grudging respect for the Boston Bruins. They were always a tough team, and as Ken Dryden noted they made the Habs play better (and be better) because of their rivalry. But what are the Bruins now? Lucic refuses to fight anyone his size or bigger. Their players resort to fighting Jaroslav Spacek. And now Chara. The Bruins are a contemptible organisation.
Did I just hear Chara state on TSN that Max leaned in and jumped??
—- Newfoundland’s biggest Habs fan. Hands down.
Got booted off the site when I tried to update my page during the 2nd intermission after the MaxP hit. I spent all night hollering and screaming and cheering about how the Habs had got their revenge on the big bad Bruins. When I saw the replay of that hit on MaxP my mood changed from elation to worry. It was the scariest thing I have ever seen in a hockey game. I asked my brother if he thought it was intentional by Chara, he said ” just watched it on PVR slo-mo and it looked like Chara was looking at the end of the glass and put him into it intentionally, Before that he didn’t think so”. Let’s hope the league sees it the same way since they have all the angles and slo-mo too. I read alot about how he is now moving his extremities etc… but if he doesn’t have a major concussion or torn ligaments in his neck, I’ll be shocked. What happened to him really took away from a joyous night. I can only imagine how hard it was for his teamates to finish the game after that. I read a few posts that they seemed scared, I on the other hand think their minds may have been with their teammate. As for the Julien and Chara interviews, wtf are they supposed to say. I remember the Bertuzzi interviews 7 years ago when he said he didn’t mean to hurt Moore too.
So Chara trips him with his skate which nobody notices and flips him ‘innocently’ into the turnbuckle. Everybody in hockey is blind if they don’t see the skate work. Deplorable.
Same here. I cant believe how angry and sad I am right now. One reason is because Pac did a huge turn in his life to not continue College and become a pro for our team. And then he went to AHL and didnt pout or sulk but improved. Man I am tearing up as I write this. And sincE he came up he has been one of the main reason for the team’s present fortunes and why its futue looks so bright.
Again Chara you are a BIG MOTHER &*^%%(((!!!
When I saw Markov went down, I knew he is done for the season.
But I don’t really have a bad feeling this time. Let’s hope my instinct is right and the hit didn’t hurt as bad as it looks. Maybe MaxPac will come back in a few games!
Such a costly win, and I’m not satified even if it’s a huge win for us. I was in tears when the announcer named the third star to Patches and a good long applause to him. It was a heartbreaker to see a good player go down like that, and Patches came into this season with so much confidence he has been a real great part of the team.
Tomorrow, if you guys should see me wearing a Canadiens cap with a “67″ taped on it, I’m keeping it on in hope for a huge recovery to Patches, and if you do the same, he’ll know we still have confidence in him.
Get well, Patches!

MaxPac, my brother, you will recover soon.
Editorials yes, beat writers left wing as you can get. And yes there are some donservative and you mentioned3 of them but how many left wing newspapers are there out there?
PHI yes, I agree. But come on now, you really don’t think the Habs get by this team in the playoffs? I say they smoke them easily. I’m not sure exactly why, but the Habs are to the Bs what NJ was to the Habs for more than a decade.
Dunno man, a lot of peeps (like me), didnt see it as intentional.
about the instant his head hits the stanchion, the puck is at the blue line.
So disturbed by Chara’s hit I wa soperating in FOG. Was trying to post a comment without logging in… so late here.
My prayers are with you Max Pac. In a very very short time you have made a huge impression on this franchise and made us feel that the future is bright with stars and great individuals like you. Full and speedy recovery.. but take your time please.
Habs… great win.. I cant say mre now.. I am too sad.
Chara you **&*^**( &*^*)) SOB.. you will get yours.
I am not going to listen to what the media is saying right now about this hit. I will have faith ( whether it is naive or not) that the NHL will look at it at all angles in slo-mo and see that he deliberately ran MaxP into the stantion( spelling?). After the decision is made, then I’ll get pissed.
Look, playing in the NHL allows people to commit vicious attacks and get away with it, don’t get me wrong, I like a big hit and out in the real world it is assault. But hockey is a physical sport.
Players know they will be hit every night, but they put their own lives in the hands of the opposing team, they don’t want to be worried someone will do something stupid and dirty. How many times has Pronger stepped on a leg—that ain’t hockey. How many spears have been given out—that ain’t hockey. There is a line between physical hockey and then using the equipment available as a weapon.
These guys should not be allowed to hide from the law. In some capacity when certain actions have taken place on the ice, they should be held accountable.
I am mad, overeacting, I don’t think so. Chara should NEVER be allowed to play this sport again…and should be charged. Re-watch that hit, what a fucking asshole.
Any update on Max since we learned he’s talking and moving a bit?
jump, what a joke chara
please, HIO, change that photo – tasteless
the man is unconscious and DOCTORS are checking his pulse!!!!!
how about one of Eller’s celebrations?
name me a newspaper in North America (exct he Sun Newspapers) and thy are all left wing.
I’m so pissed off at these apologists. Chara’s not vicious? Not malicious? What freaking game do these people watch for 60 minutes?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2eM57WVweA
And then I watch l’antichambre crew basically say the Bruins played the 3rd nice and easy, and were so concerned over Pacioretty’s well-being they didn’t mix it up. What a laugh. As soon as the major penalty was over they were taking runs at our guys every shift.
Here’s my idea of justice – Chara sits until Pacioretty plays his next game. King Solomon couldn’t make it simpler for these talking head morons. And wth is Matthew Barnaby doing on a hockey show? Is Tie Domi busy with his offshore investments?
As for the rest of the night, I’m proud to be a Habs fan after Patches gets voted 3rd star by the fans. The last time I felt that sick watching a hockey player hurt was Koivu’s eye injury. Hope he’s ok, no lasting effects, and comes back when he’s healthy so he can continue his career as a future superstar. Call Charlie Sheen, we need 3 pints of tiger’s blood stat.
Chara says: “It’s unfortunate. We were battling for the puck and I checked him.”
No you prick, the puck was nowhere near you.
the puck was 30 yards AWAY and chara clearly eyed the partition then hit and shoved pacioretty who he had NO right to even check with no puck – he drove his head into the glass partition. chara should be suspended for the rest of the year. if not pacioretty’s lawyer should sue him and thew league. might be the end of bettman! FINALLY!
i saw it too….but i also saw the ‘-26′ thumbs down rating it got…no worries
get better max
Feck them, they know shart about how hockey is played. Meatheads like that think hockey is a fighting sport.
A guilty conscience?
—————— Yes, I’m a Hab fan..Wanna fight about it?
me too
hEY YOU BITCHED ABOUT MY POST YESTERDAY.EXACTUALLY WHAT i SAID WOULD HAPPEN. READ MY DETAILED POST ABOVE.
I listened to this game as I woke up (it’s morning here in China). It started out being a great start to my day, then it turned to major concern. That’s a big part of our future that went down today, let’s hope it’s nothing serious, for his own sake on top of the team’s.
His talent is coming to the fore. Fore as in … No. 4? Wouldn’t that be great if he became this era’s Le Gros Bill (or however they say it in Danish). And, as I’ve said elsewhere, Desharnais could turn out to be the complementary Henri Richard. Nice combination. Worked out well before.
I agree with you. Heck I am not playing and I can hardly function. You cant blame the players when something like that happens. It makes the game totally secondary until you recover your wits and realize that as a professional you have to go on. Our Habs did great in the end. GO HABS GO! Full recovery Max Pac!
after reading your post i watched/read the tsn material plus ‘thats hockey 2nite’ and NO YOU DID NOT hear Chara state on TSN that Max leaned in and jumped
This is where the Molsons should step in and have a say to both Bettman and Campbell. These two idiots are like dumb and dumber. I’m just waiting for the excuse that the League gives for doing nothing on this matter.
To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.
it is a left wing newspaper – and you expect truth from them?
30 yards away? That would be 10 feet short of icing. Not what I saw.
Thomas has the exact tweet posted below.
Praying its all true also
The last time the leafs won the cup it was still just a bowl!!
I wouldn’t use the Globe as toilet paper.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
charlie sheen might be the next bruins coach.
no bettman and campbell are moneygrabber and his hired help
I thought he’d be out for several weeks when he took a puck from Wiz in the ribs in Buffalo and left the arena in an ambulance. He was back the next game to my, and probably anyone’s surprise. Let’s hope this is the case here but I have to be very doubtful. He was obviously knocked out for a while, and with all the concussion issues and time lost by other players ( who haven’t been noticably knocke dout), I am worried about that. My worries were definitely worse before I heard he was alert and moving his extremities.
Well, I guess it’s as good as official now, Chara’s gonna play the next game. Nobody wants to make an issue of this except for Montrealers. Montrealers who, despite being the most loyal and energetic fans in the league, receive no attention from anywhere else in the NHL, not the media, not the fanbase, not the league.
This is a disgrace. Just like the last game was a disgrace. This band of thugs has hit not just to hurt, but to injure the entire season and nobody bats an eyelash. Now something that could pass for attempted murder goes down, and everyone tries to dismiss it as ‘a hockey play gone wrong’. I’m sick of it, if that’s ‘hockey’, maybe I should just give up on the sport.
Lets go down the checklist, shall we?
A) Pacioretty did not have possession of the puck, for a good couple of seconds before contact was even initiated.
B) After the hit was initiated, Chara followed through with his hands to the head of the opponent.
C) Pacioretty was in a vulnerable position, and Chara felt the need to obliterate his opponent.
In what universe does that qualify as a ‘hockey play’? Even the NFL, who’s players lives are significantly shortened lives because of the wear and tear on their bodies, would recognize that a play like this has no place in sport.
What’s the best way to get in contact with the NHL, because even before the disciplinary hearing goes down, we need to let them know that this is unacceptable behaviour.
tsn rated these bums who now have lost 9 of their last 11 meetings with the habs – tsn rated them #2 overall i believe just yesterday. that collection of goons arent even in the top 4 eastern teams philly, mtl, pitts, wash all are better than them.
My PVR works great, and I dont see it.
Is that the porn where your mom bangs the priest?
That’s because you recorded and old episode of The Flying Nun, and not the hockey game.
“Maiming” might be going a little strong, but he was certainly trying to pop him into the stanchion, a manoeuver we’ve seen MANY times and which look really good on a hard-checker’s resume or the weekly highlight reels…providing the victim isn’t left for dead in the process of course, which is what happened here.
Either way, it’s deliberate.
You are an amazing troll.
Bertuzzi missed a grand total of 20 NHL games. Nothing should be surprising.
what if that was subban rubbing out lucic – we would all be as happy
No.
Well, we haven’t had ourselves a good riot in a while…
If he doesn’t then Campbell & the league are one big joke. More & more people will tune this game out because players have no respect for one another. This was an intentional hit despite what the gorilla says. Lets not forget Jan8 when Max Pac shoved the Ape when he scored the winner in ot.
Chara says he’s “not that kind of player”. Last two games I remember him jumping on our guys and pounding them.
What kind of person does that? Chara’s kind.
Check out the still pictures of Chara and Pacioretty – 4 each at this website.
http://hfboards.com/showthread.php?t=887906&page=20
Chara was deliberate trying to mame Pacioretty. Chara should be banned from hockey for at lease a year. Chara is a no good SOB
I sincerely hope the league sees it the same way you and I do.
i said to my dad after the game as the hosts of “thats hockey 2nite” were explaining that TO and NYI are two teams with arenas that do not have these turnbuckles that if the players – league wide – actually respected each other, we wouldnt need these ‘danger zones’
He’ll get a slap on the wrist. 2, maybe 4 games. Because the league will say it was “legal”. The league has hid behind this so long and it won’t stop. The league plays nip and tuck with the rules here and there and then says they’re new and powerful. It’s BS. The league doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the lives of the players. A player falls, there’s another “exciting young player” to take his place. Bettman’s a scumbag. He’s empire building, fallen soldiers don’t matter.
Have to admit, I saw this coming and didn’t even bother watching the game tonight. I’m sick of this garbage and the fact that the league keeps turning a blind eye to certain teams.
I’m not for the hit as well i hate lucic but if i saw that happen to him od still be in shock
Thanks. Glad I’m not alone in my reaction. With Sidu above that’s just 3 of us who feel that strongly? That seems weird. And sad.
My reaction exactly, I have to wonder if he even actually watched the game.
Or, patches secretly took Gomez’s jersey and came out for the 3rd.
http://www.flipshare.com/ViewFbReshare.aspx?i=e6b0c6e0-ff7e-4065-bc5c-f74a5e7c672d
Chara video from Friedman’s twitter. Claiming innocence.
huh?
Guys, I gotta be honest. That made me sick. I really like Patches. I turned the game off and I’m thinking of not watching hockey anymore. I watched Scott Stevens turn guys brains into mush while everyone cheered him on and thought to myself “should I be party to this?”. Tonight I feel the same. The league has dragged its feet on the dangers, even that talking bananan Cherry says it, and the guy promotes violence. I never want to get attached to another kid and watch him take a hit like that one. These guys are people… I get to know them… I give a crap. And Patches was a great young promising player who may not be that player again, worse yet may not be that person again.
I am sorry I don’t take a lot of happiness from “he was talking and his limbs were moving”. I saw what I saw. Chara can go to hell for his wrecklessness, and I hope he does. Campbell and Bettman can go with him for literally standing in the way of attempts to prevent injuries like this. And I don’t want any of it.
Can someone please suggest a reason why it’s okay to keep watching? I believe not watching hockey is the only thing that’s going to change it.
SD
What do you think the odds are of MaxPac being back this season????
Im sure he is concussed, and will have a nasty headache in the morning but happy he is responsive and moving his extremities. Do you think anything is broken?
A good point is made here. The NHL will probably do nothing, maybe 2 games max. If that was Matt Cooke, I can only imagine.
Very true. Missed that on my first watch.
If Chara is such a stalwart guy as many in the media are purporting him to be you’d think he’d own up to his actions. Shameful.
Tonight, we saw the difference between the Canadiens and the Bruins.
http://www.habseyesontheprize.com/2011/3/8/2039039/tonight-we-saw-the-difference-between-the-canadiens-and-the-bruins
I’m with you. I’m seriously thinking of not watching. This wasn’t an “accident”. This was intentional violence of a sort that’s been allowed to thrive in the NHL for decades. Bettman is the sports equivalent of Big Tobacco. Head in the sand as his defense. We need to stop watching.
ill go to vegas right now and bet my house that Chara will not be suspended.
Nasty hit, the big goof did not need to extend his arm to push Max into the post. Hope he isn’t too bad. 2 expensive points but hell I was glad the Habs beat these idiots. Chara is some kind of frankenstien, time to get out the tourches.
That son of a bitch better get suspended. He said it wasn’t intentional but you can clearly see him extending his arm and shoving Max Pac into the partition. That what these friggin Bruins are all about. They fall behind & resort to dirty hockey a la the Broad Street Bullies they really are. Should be hillarious on coach’s corner this saturday to see what scumbags Cherry/Millburry will have to say.
Nice article.
Did Chara actually say that? I’ve been seeing it here on HIO but I can’t find it anywhere else.
I can’t believe I am saying this — I have been exposed to hockey since before I could talk or walk, and I’ve been a dedicated fan since 89.
Today’s hit has turned me off from the game.
We need to eliminate these type of plays from our beloved game. Chara or no Chara, captain or no captain, he has to pay the consequences.
come on, dont leave. you’re doing so well…with your ferguson butt-ends to the face stuff…and dress fans in the stands to take on chara stuff, and calling me and others bitches and fucking idiots….come one, your winning!
Shades of Ribeiro from the playoffs a couple of years ago, lays on the ice like he was shot and then takes his next shift! Max Pac will barely miss a game or two
Stay classy Boston.
I totally agree with all of you who said there was intent, because Chara definitely saw it coming and decided to “finish his check” by driving Max’s head into the stanchion. Chara’s arm came up and drove the head into the stanchion. He is f’in goof who goes around and uses his extra size to intimidate. he is one gooin who will get his. All the best to max, have a speedy recovery!
As for Boychuk, man, i don’t remember that kid playing dirty like that here for the Calgary Hitmen. Must be the company he keeps. Anyhow, it sure looked like he tried to kneee Subban. Looks like he found out the hard way that his fellow hitmen alum was a little better with the knuckles than him. Good on ya Ryan!
Last of all, but certainly not least, is that punk, Lucic. He looks so tough cross checking guys from behind. he looked more like Luchicken when Pouliot was beaking off to him.
I don’t want to see Maurice tonight, I want to see The Rocket!
My thoughts exactly… could not have said it better myself…that was one of the saddest moments i have ever withnessed on T.V. and i was just shocked and was shivering after hearing the horrible sound of max’s head and the wall… I dont remember the last time i cried but tears were comming down my eyes when I thought about the cirumstances … young promissing players carreer and possibly life over because of a morron seeking revenge over a back shove… makes me sick
Nice work.
I’ve not seen PK make a dirty hit, and he hits hard. Obviously guys are in motion and things can go wrong, but it’s the shoving arm motion that hangs Chara’s argument. Up until then I could give him the benefit of the doubt, but after re-screening it, no.
I can’t believe he’s getting defended on here.
He’s just upset because idiots are out-arguing him.
I read your posts on NESN. Pure gold they was.
yikes, if anyone reads all my posts they will know ive been flip flopping all over the place on this debate
these pictures say it all…no more debating from me
That happened on the 7th anniversary of Bertuzzi’s attack. (March 8, 2004)
Thank you!
Aw, c’mon, I had some good stuff!
wasn’t me posting about dressing fans up in the stands (they only do that in boston & Philly )or calling you a bitch(missed that one) so your okay with Chara’s hit but not with a butt end to retilaite. You do what you have to do. Wuz.
New page on NESN. Guess what it’s about?
Took the liberty of pasting Eric Lord’s phenomenal rant on the matter straight up to get things goin.
http://www.nesn.com/2011/03/zdeno-charas-hit-on-max-pacioretty-headlines-an-ugly-night-in-montreal-for-bruins.html#comment-6a0115709f071f970b014e86979d92970d
I believe the comment was equating Ribeiro coming bacon the next shift to how Pacioretty ‘will’ be back in a few games, not meaning Pacioretty did come back.
In any case, stupid and class-less comment.
I’m tired of argueing with idiots tonight. Just read my post of 2 days ago (Vidio’s sopel etc) and i stated for the record if we get a lead Julien will let the dogs lose and one or more of our dkill players will be hurt/ No one can argue with what was written. Now outside so I can finish my last night in Montego Bay drinking Rum.
Bye
Replyies later tonight or tomorrow morning.Can’t guarantee spelling.
1. I agree we have the best goaltender in the league and wouldn’t want us to trade him for anyone,
2. Just because a guy is not dead or paralyzed, doesn’t mean to me that he is OK.
No, I just dislike Timo’s face
There’s video of it:
http://www.flipshare.com/ViewFbReshare.aspx?i=e6b0c6e0-ff7e-4065-bc5c-f74a5e7c672d
So, you liked what you saw?
good team game backed by carey..the team is doing good..hope max-pac is ok

I don’t want to see Maurice tonight, I want to see The Rocket!
This one made me change my mind. That hit was way after max dumped the puck in and i gotta say the intent was there. Thats a damn shame. What a lack of respect for the health of another player by Chara. That angle proves that this has to be a suspension and a long one. I say 8 games.
watch the last 10 seconds of this clip, you can see the forearm he recieved clearly.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFx46j2qaA4
His neck is not going to be okay for some time. Also obviously concussed which is impossible to get a time frame on. His concussion symptoms could go away, but his neck would probably be a serious issue to skate well with.
Zero. The odds are zero.
his hand just pushes him to the “left”
his size dictated how hard he was pushed
really unfortunate what happened – but if you think about that same play happening along the boards anywhere else on the ice, and we wouldnt be talking about it
i dont think he drives him into the turn buckle…
Everybody is happy about the win right? MaxPac is going to be fine. I believe that the Habs have as much chance as anybody to win the whole thing this year. Just look at what’s going on around the league…there’s some crazy stuff going on. The key is goaltending and for my money I say the Habs have the best goalie in the NHL.
Go Habs Go!!
On your face
I love to hate Chara but his hands flew up right after his head Patches hit the post, watch it gain man, sorry to burst your keyboard warrior bubble,
I hope Chara has an accident.
you blind or a bruin fan or an idiot one of the three. watch at 16 seconds on the video.his hand presses max’s head into the turn buckel.
Since Gregory Campbell plays for the Bruins, his father, Colin Campbell, will not be addressing this…. Mike Murphy, VP, will be….
I don’t think there was “clear” intent there, but I think Chara definitely deserves a suspension. I’m thinking 8 – 10 games is suitable so he’ll probably get somewhere between 0 and 3 (or 4)!
I know this has probably been covered before but…who gave Matthew Barnaby a broadcasting job?
Watching his explanation of why Chara should not be suspended just made my blood boil and my stomach turn. In a situation like this, just say nothing. Don’t stoke the fire.
no for me too.
I don’t want to see that happen to anyone I can think of right now. Even Lucic.
We can hope and wish all we want, but we know it wont happen.
Every single analyst in the league says it was clean but unfortunate (i dont agree with them AT ALL). Gregory Campell plays on the Bruins, if he gets away with a clear sucker punch earlier this year, Chara wont get the book thrown at him for this.
I hate the double standard for the Bruins right now, i was surprised Paille got anything.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFx46j2qaA4
there’s another angle in the last 10 seconds of this clip. You can see Chara eyeing the stanchion and extending his arm out as he pushed Pacioretty’s head into it. He also could have easily just pushed him against the Bruins bench right before it too.
watch where is hands are positioned, high in the head area
watch the forward movement of this hands in the head area, the intent
Sorry man, but I really dont see that. I watched over and over, dont see his hands around Patches head.
If anyone is going to say it’s a clean hit,
Then answer this, when was the last time a Hab knocked another player unconcious along the boards?
JUST THINK ABOUT IT
I wouldn’t, nothing disturbs me more in the NHL that brain injuries (concussions) and attempts to injure. They ruin the game, they destroy the careers of all kind of players, from your honest workers like Ian Laperriere to your Paul Kariyas. Laperriere’s injury wasn’t anyone’s fault, sometimes a puck hits you in the face but I doubt that was his first concussion for the result that has come of it.
Subban blasting Lucic with a nice clean hit? I’d applaud it. I’ve never liked dirty play and was completely fine with the 5-game suspension Laraque got when he went knee-on-knee with Kronwall in 2009.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
The sad part is I can never remember an incident like this involving Chara until now. He made himself that kind of player with that hit. I never had a problem with Chara besides wearing that ****-stained jersey until now. But now, he’s just another bully blaming someone else for what he did.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
i am disappointed in hockey analysists and some of you this site that this was not an intent to injure. watch it closely on this video
was chara he beat on the play, yes
was the puck in site, no
watch where chara postioned, in behind max.
watch how chara is aligned, not paralel to the boards, angled off
watch where is looking and what area he has in clear sight
watch where is hands are positioned, high in the head area
watch the forward movement of this hands in the head area, the intent
watch where max’s head is, in between the silver post and chara hand
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX9c7B1cPrM
he lost a fight to an “AHL’er” ha ha ha ha
Guess Boychuk found out the hard way that there is a difference between fighting Spacek & White……..
i look at it a couple ways – what if that was subban rubbing out lucic – we would all be as happy as can be….right? did chara mean to kill patched – i dont think so… did chara want to stop him and take a penalty – yea i think so bcchara was beat… did chara want to hurt him?? honstly i think so because….
1) isn’t there a history between chara and patches?
2) patches played the puck near the blue line, contact was made near the red line… the lines are what 10 feet apart? is someone going ot tell me 10 feet is not enough room to make a plat or NOT make a dirty hit?
for those that have played the game we know it’s a fast game, a very fast game…. but there so a lot of time and chara could have easily NOT made a dirty play. intent or not there was ample time to NOT make that hit.
I can’t believe people are actually saying that Chara was not at fault… I dont care if he extended his arm or not or what ever… IT IS A UNWRITTEN CODE THAT EVERY HOCKEy PLAYER KNOWS: YOU TRY TO AVOID ANY SORT OF CONTACT WHEN IT IS EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE TO THAT “DEATH ZONE” PERIOD….
Chara has been playing the game long enough to know that… I hope he does not see the color of Ice for the rest of his days…but unfortunatly we all know that will not be the case…
simply sad… The sound that the contact made in Bell centre made me shiver…. we should all pray for Max Pac because no matter what the media says about him moving and being conciouns this is at the very least a career ending moment for him… God knows i hope with all my heart that im wrong about that part…
Huh?
Umm…I guess I shoulda kept reading after “idiots” then…
Hey, you said you were goin to bed; I didn’t know I’d have to explain myself!
Hey you brought up looking at you tube to me , can’t take your own medicine. Look up Nilan, Kordic fights etc and BTW why don’t you call th CKJD call in show and ask Sergio what he thinks of a butt end to Chara.I guarantee he’s with me. Also besides a butt end, there’s a slew foot, spear to the back of the knee, cross check back of the head knee on knee and i could go on with retribution to a team which really really needs some.
I’m in a bad mood and you obviously did not read my above post of 2 days ago where i said this was going to happen. Go ahead i dare you to .
Ok. If any bar and business wants to say that the hit was clean, no prob… That’s fine.
What I saw tonight has provided enough reason to convince me that the league is SHITTY BEYOND FUCK
FUCK the NHL
Sorry Bugs, post was for slyder not to offend you and yeah I’m still up.
I was actually very excited when we went up 2-0 and then 3-0 but was worried that if we got an insurmountable lead on them, they would goon it up.
Blaming the victim is the way of the NHL.
Those last two pics are conclusive — he led Pacioretty’s head right into the stanchion. No need to do that, he’s skated by, his partner has the puck. And this all stems from an illegal play — Pacioretty played the puck, made two strides, and should not have been interfered with.
Disgusting.
Actually, I’m a terrible troll. Got found out directly.
Now I’m straight-up, cards-on-the-table sunovab*tch.
No point getting injured because you`re emotional and angry. Spoken like someone who has never played competitive hockey. If he didn`t want to fight, throw a punch with a glove on, the liney was between them anyway. My issue is with the lack of emotion shown, not that he didn`t fight him. If Gomez was screaming at him, i could even accept that, but he acted as if chara had just taken a tripping penalty.
I`ll stick with the team i cheer for, thanks. If I sound big and dumb, it`s probably because you think anyone who doesn`t agree with you is dumb.
“we play smart rational hockey“- I was unaware you were on the team. I look forward to your interview tomorrow.
haha, if you`re asking if i would take a punch in the head for someone doing that to my teammate, then yeah i would. I played major junior, and have been in that situation before. It`s not always fun to fight someone bigger than you, but sometimes you have to stick up for a teammate. I`m just glad i never played hockey with you.
And if you read my post properly, you would see i didn`t even say he had to fight him. Have a good one KID.
I would love to see you confront a 6’9″ ugly goon with armor on.
I know you hate Gomez with a passion, but now isn’t the time to play your stupid jokes. Hit the bed kid.
yeah, he really tried to get at him didn`t he
Sticking up for a teammate is one thing, being totally retarded and fight a 6’9″ goon when you are not even 6′ is another. There is no point to get injuired just because you are all emotional and angry.
Maybe you should switch to the Bruins camp. We play smart, rational hockey here. You seem to be a good fit to the Bruins, (sound) big but dumb.
Like a movie scene
In the meanest dreams,
I have pictured us together.
Now to feel their lips
On our knuckled fists,
I have to say, is even better
Then I ever thought it could possibly be.
It’s perfect, it’s passion, it’s setting me free.
From all of my fury
That built over time,
I have spent all of my liiiife
Waiting for tonight, oh!
When they would be here in my town.
Waiting for tonight, oh!
I’ve dreamed of this night for so looooong!
Waiting for tonight.
(train-crossing bell)
ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding…
Subby let’s pound ‘em, ’cause you know the black jersey
Really hurts my eyes.
They come from a world where the brains are dim
And the people not so jive.
Gooooo Habs, you know we’re gonna win,
So come on, come on, come on, come on Subby,
Come on now and make me grin….
Ooooootonite! Habs’re gonna be alright.
Come on, come on, win it tonite,
And I’ll be there when the Bruins go doooownnnn…

Propwash,the League will do nothing and then some one will die…for sure! As far as I conserned the next game against those BASTEREDS should be a MUGGING! GET THE BIGGEST BULLDOGS ,SIT THE TALENT AND PEER 5 THOSE FKers!
I cannot agree more. The league wont suspend Chara, they will say it was not intentional. Savards career is more or less over from a dirty hit, someone is going to die on the ice and thats when the league will final react differently
Dirty hit aside, it’s so trendy to bash Bettman isn’t it? I’m so sick of hearing it. If ownership was unanimous on these type of discipline issues, decisions are easy to make. If they aren’t (which they aren’t) then it is VERY difficult. I won’t jump on the ‘this league is a joke’ bandwagon, because I am an NHL hockey addict. All people posting on discussion forums about NHL hockey are most probably huge NHL fans as well, if not, there would be no reason to be here. What do you guys want, the KHL? What would you think if Bettman owned his own team? The NHL is a big multi-person organization and Bettman is not the only person in it. I actually think the guy does as good job considering the s*** he gets flung.
Just got home from Hurleys and I gotta ask, does someone need to be killed before the league does something? Chara had it in for Patches since the little shove after the overtime goal, point finale, and it came to a head.
If the league does nothing about this, which in all probability will happen, than a major overhaul needs to be done in the officiating/oversee’er department. But hey, in Bettman’s world, all is good, so long as he’s raking in the dough.
Lars been playing good for weeks, since they moved him back to center.
Who is the idiot on RDS before the hockey games who never picks the Habs on his pro-line picks?
Kostitsyn looks possessed.
i want more…good job boys. they looked like dicksindaweeds
friggen eller…bruin slayer!!!!
profound call on that line kirk (we all know whos callin shots here)
Have to watch the Boston feed, might have to hunt Andy Brickley down after this game!
i really like him with kosts and moen
with eller, kosts and moen working out so well: why not try the big boys ( gio, cammi, pleks) on first? mix up the 2nd and fourth

btw, tsn2 has a special on gio on right now!
Saw Marchand on TSN – The more he talked the bigger his nose got like Pinnochcio (sp)………
Boston is in town to deliver 2 points to our win column. Never in doubt.!
I’m really looking forward to this one!!!
Lars Eller!!!!! Where’s BUGS? I hope he’s not in Hamilton watching Lars play.
Go Habs Go!!
Marchand’s a typical crybaby who can’t take a clean hit. I hope we get up three or four and Subban gives him his wish. And then pounds the snot out of him for Pyatt and Spacek.
look at pronger and tell me about creationism
This one should work

stupid dick kluzak got his ass kicked by chris nilan many times, ask him if he was called up just to fight!!!
both channelsurfing and atdhe – the new ones - appear to be down again? does anyone have some other links to watch tonight?
Nice to see Eller potting a few goals. He is now playing with confidence, you can see by the way he is handling and shooting the puck. I hope he gets a hat trick tonight. Poor Marchand lloking around when he loses the puck to see if a penalty will be called. What an idiot.
Habs keep this up and we will be okay. Boston cannot skate with the Habs. All the guys got to do is a flip dump in the bruins zone and you get their d-men to turn around and you got them flat footed.
To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.
ladies and gentlemen we got ourselves a new centerman! wonder how boston tv called that fight. should have been a penalty for head hunting, stuck the foot out…………………..
How long before Lucic protects his girlfriend (Horton) by a 3rd-man-in blindside of a smaller player? I’ll say 15 minutes.
What a beauty by Eller on the 2nd goal.I Think thats the nicest habs goal I’ve seen this season
We didn’t lose the last game against the Bruins due to lack of toughness. We lost because it was a run-and-gun affair where we forgot how to play D and let in 8 goals. That being said I’m glad the tougher guys are in the lineup. Why, because we did however, get beat up. Of course the win is most important but I also don’t want to see non-fighters get gooned up.
+They are there to shut down Boston’s top line. Lucic, Horton and Krej
atta boy White he gave it too Boychuk
Well, a goal from 3 guys I might not have even have dressed. Moen, Eller and Mara. Thanks guys!
here ya go

The Cat’s Tale O’ The Tape: Habs are 9-7-1 with 2 days off and 7-4-2 on Tuesdays. Boston are 4-1-0 with 2 days off and 8-1-0 on Tuesdays…

you see Richards call out PK for standing up for his teamates. now you got this young kid in marchand bashing the habs. whats more of a problem?
you see Richards call out PK for standing up for his teamates. now you got this young kid in marchand bashing the habs. whats more of a problem? i guess if you ask me neither. but still RIchards is an idiot
Anyone listen to what Lucichicken is telling anyone who will listen. He say the Habs started it and they were only defending themselves. What a load of crap. I think Boston is trying to convince themselves more than anything. If anything I think the Bruins are afraid of the Habs and are trying to build up their own confidence.
To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.

They said White was called up “just to fight!” Gord Kluzak does the between periods commentary, he is scheduled to have knee surgery before the next intermission.
I was thinking where’s Bugs after his 2nd goal for sure.
yes the nhl has changed yes were skilled and fast but we are also that in the 70′s when the situation was similar, flyers and bruins. bowman had to tool his team with some intimating players that can play 7 to 10 minutes but were tough, ie chrawtraw, bouchard, tremb/risebrough/savard, robinson could all take care of themselves. this is what were missing, easier said than done but they know it folks, they know were not good at defending ourselves…………i hope they surprize me tonight, a couple of players that play big (white, sopel, mara) miight encourage the others to play big……..i see pouliot scrapping tonight and doing well!!!!!!!!
Hopefully PK takes out the little douche again.
Disrespectful puke Brad Marchand from Arpon Basu’s Twitter:
“They like to get in and shoot their mouths off and then when you hit them they’ll dive down and fall easy. “
They get a lot of shots behind the play, and then they play it off like when we run them they didn’t do anything to deserve it”
“That’s the kind of team they are, they’re pretty good at it.”
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
I love all the chatter around the league about Subban “learning his place” in the league and here you have Marchand, with all of 82 games played in his career, shooting his mouth off about an entire team.
Combine total nhl games played and they have equal experience.
i’m not a proponent of violence, but if Marchand gets laid out with a big, clean hit tonight, I’ll raise my glass.
LOL, no Brad, that hit from P.K. was pretty much IN FRONT of the play. Keep your mouth SHUT and your head UP, kid!
He ran his mouth a lot after the last game. I wish PK ended his season with that big hit. I hate him more everytime I read his stupid comments.
lol..and I guess his Bruins are angels out there…Gimmie a break, kid..Maybe he should learn to keep his head up, 1st…
—————— Yes, I’m a Hab fan..Wanna fight about it?
I say 3-5 games. Look at Chara’s game, he leans into players againts the boards all the time, thats what he does and not once has he ever done this. He happened to do it at the one spot on the ice that is dangerous. He was stupid for not thinking what can happen but I dont think he meant to
Do us all a favour, you pretentious little poetic prick
Learn english you fuck
I was on board with you until you started making light of, and joking about what may possibly be a career ending injury. Nothing about any of this is remotely funny to me.
Lord bugs. LOL. Nice pretension.
Admiral of what???? Osti say what? osti? mon petit bonhomme?
I believe Todd Bertuzzi is remorseful too for causing “permanent” (according to the lawyers) brain damage to Steve Moore.
The be all and end all is this, Chars had it in for Patches since the little shove after the game winning goal.
For the record, I believe in Big Z’s remorse. I’m sure he didn’t exoect Pac-Man to get hurt as much as he did. But he musta expected to hurt him a LITTLE when he deliberately PUSHED him into the stanchion. Bullspit he didn’t see it comin. It was right in front of him. When you’re moving forward (literally, not figuratively nonsensical), things normally come at you from the front, and if you don’t avoid them, you’re bound to hit them; something to do with kinetics or something, I don’t know, I’m not a physicist, the point is: bullspit he didn’t know he was steering the kid’s head into a fraggin stanchion comin right at’em, c’mon.
20 games.
It should,à however be noted that I’m extremely biased on the matter so my personal opinion should be taken with a grain’o'salt. Preferably sea salt. Hear it’s good for you. Coupla grains’o'sea salt, yeah, take my opinion with that. Maybe some paprika too…
Hell, whatever you want, I’m out.
After that hit the whole team shoulda chased that prick out of the Bell with the crowd not far behind!
Do your self a favour and watch an old John ferguson you tube vidio of him giving a boston player. A “Butt end”to the face, brings down a man any size. And BTW prehaps J Bonneau might have lost to Chara but at least he would have had Chara sitting in the box with him. Any other thoughts Brainiac.
I agree. Chara is the top dog. I hope he gets suspended for 10 games. If not I’d say bring up Bonneau and Henry and let them tag team him.
Either that or have someone give him a Bobby Clarke to Kharlamov’s ankle special.
you didnt answer my questions…are you saying we should dress fans in the crowd when we play the bruins? so they can dish out what chara deserves?
Sigh.
No one is talking about beating up Chara. It’s called deterrence. When Chris Nilan was around did anyone mess with our high-skill players?
Remember in the 70′s when the Flyers were skilled and scary? Well we beat them with skill AND toughness.
Yeah if the rules were clear and enforced consistently and we could trust the league, fine, you would be right and I would agree with you. But is that the case now?
No. And until it is Cammi, Plex, Pax and yes, Price, are going to be targets. It’s really too bad Laraque was past it by the time we got him.
muscle was brought it – mara and white
both did their jobs – and we won 4-1, bringing the series lead to 4-1
…my point still stands…but FINE…who is going to DETER chara?
yep. i watched it…have seen it before…and i responded actually, dripping with sarcasm
you must have missed it – oh, and that wasnt a question…
Watch the Ferguson vidios to see how you deal with certain players.
im sorry, you didnt ask me a question….
You didn’t answer mine either. so don’t bitch about some one not answering your stupid post.
Nope, you’re 100% right. We should start running around butt-ending opposing players in the face and substituting anyone that is willing to fight anybody for our fast, skilled, playmaking and goal scoring players.
i stand corrected
damn bgl’s back

Congratulations, Bruins. You won a game by 2 goals, won a few fights in which you should have been handed instigators, and one that included a weapon.
Bravo, Boston.
*golf claps*
Wow, this writer is an idiot.
I’m a habs fan and I am trying to keep a good perspective……..how are we cheap shot artists and pretend to be innocent…….like Gainey said last week teams should keep there mouth shut and just play the game…… read the attached garbage. hope the team does for motivation

“On the fight card, the B’s pummeled Montreal in 4-of-5 bouts, with Thomas the lone loser in a mid-ice go with counterpart Carey Price that was more humorous than violent.”
Interesting… I guess he blocked out the memory of Pouliot taking Kreici down with pretty much one punch and then letting up once he hit the ice… lol
Lets go Habs, kick them where it hurts!
When those three idoits open their mouths I don’t listen. They’re on TV, thats it, they haven’t been all that successful in the NHL a couple Stanley Cup appearences for Tavish and Cherry and thats about it. I hate it when these guys tell their audiences “what is takes to win” when none of them are really even winners themselves. Milbury has to work every network in the league to keep his debts down, McTavish needs the 55K from TSN to keep himself drunk and Cherry….actually I’m going stop typing now.
You can thank tools like Don Cherry, Mike Milburry, Craig McTavish & the list goes on & on & on. Talk is cheap & I hope we’ll continue to get no respect from the so called experts, i.e. Bruins/Leafs analysts.
Yeah, thats what I’m saying, I dont think he meant to but I could be wrong, nobody will really ever know, it was a bad decision by Chara, that much is for sure.
You are 100 percen right. I thought two things set a tone in the first few minutes. P.K doing some skating thru a few Bruins showed that we were gonna come at them and not si tback. And White jumping to respond at the cheap hit enforced that idea. And it wasnt a pussy-ass effort by White either. He was AMAZING.
This game remind sme of one thing. WE fans owe so much to this great team of ours… the present and the past. And every now and then they grab that torch and hold it high. Tonight they did. I know every fan here feels damn proud to be a HABS fan tonight.
Thank you Ryan … you are not a big kid but you got one BIG HEART. Thank YOU max… my prayers are with you.
Thank you TEAM!
Ryan White`s fight was as good a goal.
How in heaven can you blame this on PG and BG? I mean…. are you THAT… not bright???
I don’t want a goon team like the Flyers and Bruins; I prefer a talented speedy team with grit.
Thanks, Andrew, for engaging in a civil exchange. I will make a point of looking at the clip if I get the chance. What I was offering was an initial impression in response to what I knew would be an emotional issue and my naturally charitable nature apparently got the better of me. Evidently I am to be hung in virtual effigy in place of Public Enemy No. 1.
Initial thoughts on tonight’s game – if this game was a measuring stick for the playoffs then we showed we can skate with the big boys. This was a complete decimation of a supposedly superior team, with or without their captain for the 3rd period. The Habs skated, took the body and make smart, low risk plays that translated into a team win. Eller looked phenomenal tonight, and made PG look even better – he’s a smart, heads-up hockey player with a very bright future. The kid can skate, create opportunities and he’s got soft hands to boot. Besides scoring twice I thought Eller played a great game end to end.
Price was his usual steady self – exactly what we’ve come to expect and exactly what other offences suddenly don’t have an answer to. No more going high-glove side. That’s covered. His lateral movements are second to none and his patience is astounding.
Now, on to the elephant in the room. That hit by Chara, intentional or not, was sickening. He’s a veteran player with a bone to pick. My gut tells me he meant to do it and now he must answer to the NHL. Mark my words, when Don Cherry gets ahold of this i GUARANTEE his message will be along these lines “The kid (Pacioretty) shouldn’t have been in that position. Chara is just playing the puck and that kid put himself in a vulnerable position.” BS, Don. Cherry will defend Chara and the Bruins no question.
My only complaint? No goals from Hal “Skillsie” Gill! Come on Giller!

I don’t think he saw who he was going into the boards with, to be honest.
I know I sound a bit like an apologist, but I’d like to believe that these things are unintentional.
Call it…oh, I don’t know… hope for humanity, perhaps?
—Hope Springs Eternal—
John, to be clear I didn’t call you delusional, or at least didn’t mean it that way. I’m not trying to start a fight. I’m saying Chara knew who he was hitting, and he doesn’t do that if it isn’t Pacioretty.
Apparently, SF09, we were thinking the same thing; I just don’t type very fast
Chris Pronger also donates to Charity. The money made from selling the puck from last years finals was going to charity.
I see your point but the thing i’m factoring in to this is the garbage that started from the shove patches gave to chara after scoring the OT goal. Unfortunately this won’t be considered whenever the league reviews this.
It is completely unreasonable to put any blame on the coach or management of this team. Chara is not going to be intimidated by anyone because he can beat-up anyone in hockey, anywhere. The coach and management have built a team that has beaten these bums 4/5 times this season simply because they are more skilled. By inserting meat-heads into the line-up you have to take skill out. No one is going to fight Chara and about the only guy who can beat-up Lucic is Boogaard, he has no place on this team.
Stopping these incidents has to come from the league office. A heavy, unprecedented suspension is likely the only way to keep these things from happening
I’d be surprised if the league even gives him 7 or 8. He doesn’t have a history (Not that it should count) and he’s a star player so that gets you more slack. Chara will ride out a suspension while Pacioretty potentially spends the rest of the season recovering from that hit.
Boston fans will defend him, forgetting that Marc Savard was shut down and his career is possibly over due to a series of reckless hits against him and they nearly post Patrice Bergeron the same way.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
This is a pretty tough one.
Chara is a big, competitive guy who plays hard, and who left his really dirty days are behind him in Ottawa.
He gives a lot of money to charities and runs his own kids’ charity. I’ve met people who’ve met him, and who know him. They say he’s a gent.
I hate they guy as an opponent, but as a person, I respect him.
He’s no Chris Pronger. Not by a long shot.
I’m sure I’m going to get nailed to the wall because people are angry, but I would like to think that Chara would never do something like that, and as much as we talk and analyse, only he will really ever know for sure.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Great win! Excellent hockey!
The guys on the SportsNet said it was a clean hit by Chara. He didn’t deserve a penalty. Ever wonder what we’re up against? I bet Chara gets nothing.
Now on to the next one
Oh – and the surging Laffs lost
I don’t pretend to be an expert; just a die-hard Habs fan passing my opinion
Personally, I don’t think the best revenge would be to go after Chara. Or Lucic. If I’m a Habs player, I focus my energy on Campbells son next time they meet up to send a message. He becomes public enemy #1 by association unless the Chara punishment is appropriate.
how can u say this , how long have you watched the game. he was beat on the play by speed, he knew there was an abstacle that would slow him down, watch it in slow motion, he forearmed into the turn buckle. the question why did he did it, he was beat on the play.
Yes. It would have happened had we had a thug on our team. Point final.
It’s not like Patches is a small guy, he just got targeted by a bigger thug, that’s all.
So I watched the hit, and it looked clean initially. The third time I watched it however I noticed the skate trip by Chara being the key part of the play that left Pax vulnerable. Watch Chara’s skate on Pax skate, that and the shove is what put him in. Very, very, very, very dirty play but nobody we’ll see it.
In all of this I’m wondering where the fiez the Montreal Italian and French mafia are in straightening this Bruin’s stuff out. In the old days, you’d sign a guy to a one day contract and he’d take some mofo’s heads off with his stick.
No kidding. You read my mind. I honestly don’t have the stomach to watch that cartoon idiot defend his rock em sock em bullshit this time.
Me either. See my comments above.
Follow me on Twiter:djamesross
I’m sorry, that’s bull. Between the targeting that’s taken place since Patches’ ‘push’ on Chara after the OT winner you’ve seen malicious behaviour in the past (they still target PK to boot) and the consequences of the hit: no puck possession, high hit, vulnerable position, if this isn’t a suspension I don’t know what is.
Chara is just one cheap shot artist in a bunch of cheap shot artists!
Thank God hockey won out tonight!

In other news hope we play them in the playoff excpet for when Price allowed those 7 goals they can’t beat us
“When people agree with me i always feel that i must be wrong” – Oscar Wilde
Chara would’ve made that hit regardless, WHO CAN TAKE ON CHARA? Honestly, he’s the biggest man in the league, nobody can intimidate that guy because he’ll just grab them and ragdoll them around. Matt Cooke tried to kill Marc Savard on a team that packed Thornton, Ference, Mcquaid, Lucic and Chara last season.
Bruins had plenty of enforcers, they still nearly lost Patrice Bergeron at one point (and may have lost Savard) due to reckless hits on them. This is the failure of the league to enforce suspensions and slap down reckless play when it occurs.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
Why exact revenge on Campbell or any player for that matter? Let them handle this like gentlemen and skate the Bruins off the ice come the playoffs.
If we go out looking for blood we’re only going to tarnish our reputation and feed the critics. Why not prove the Brad Marchands and everyone else out there wrong?

Well, they probably did; more to the point, why wouldn’t you want to make it uncomfortable for the visiting team?
Wish Patches all the best. Great game by the Habs tonight.
Lucic is still picking his spots, and I can`t wait until the day he gets his.
My feelings exactly.
No way he had no idea what was going to happen, it was deliberate. There are certain areas and situations where you stick check only, and that is one of them.
How many games will he get, because you know he is going miss some time…
Gomez went straight up to him, I was only hoping Scott was going to break his stick on Chara’s face.
Elliz Victoria Chára
More than a bush league play from a veteran defenceman. I hope the league takes a good long look at this play and Chara is punished accordingly (that’s in a perfect world).
Wow what ahorrible hit i hope chara gets it bad the hit made me sick to the stomach im still woozy i hope pacy heals quickly god pplease bless him.
I swear to god if chara says in an interview that he didnt mean to hit him ill puke man chara what a prick
Last bruin to have class Bobby Orr when DOn CHerry came around they lost any of it and never got it back
Change that picture the kid has family.
chara you gutless piece of crap and cheap shot artist i hope your suspended for the rest of the season and playoffs! of course that spinless coachroach cherry will defend his bruins to no end …..so will milbury and that idiot p.j. stock!
I agree. Chara almost threw him into the partition.
all is well and im positive the nhl will take action on patc’s injury. men vs boys tonight!!!!!!
With the history between Max and Chara, one cannot say this wasnt an intent to injure. 16 Second left in a period the puck NO WHERE IN SITE…. and then this clown has to put this shit!.
I hope he gets suspended, but I HIGHLY doubt it, because Campbells son is on the bruins.
bruins truely showed how weak they are, and we set ballsed upd. let us go to their site and tell it like it is….(murrey)
what bothers me most about the hit was our laclk of response. Mcreary didnt have to send the teams off we gutted out and did nothing.
when is the NHL going to get any —- and deal with this crap.. It’s easy , if intent to injure , the offending happens player is out as many games as the injured player and then the suspension starts … only then will players give respect . In all other sports hockey is the only sport where this kind of crap happens.
Hey HIO administrator: CHANGE THE PICTURE!
(That’s tasteless)
HABS fan(atics) in the Toronto area the Bruins play the Leafs on March 17th. Come out with your HABS jerseys and “eggo” the Bruins bench!
– I will not apologize for being a delirious HABS fan! –
Can you believe that the NESN morons ie Jack Edwards accused the Canadiens( among a plethora of other things) of purposely designing the Bell Center so that it was the most unconforatble in the league for visiting BU Goaltenders!
What a mentality!
“The Allo Police Media – a collection of bitter ex-coaches, players and wannabees whose collective lack of success accounts for their present positions in Sports’ equivalent of the Jerry Springer Show”
He put him into the turnbuckle, and he knew it was there. Don’t try to defend this POS. He knew exactly what he was doing. Technically, i guess it wasn’t an illegal hit, but he tried to hurt him, there’s no doubt
What a load of dog poop.
.
Ok. I just watched it twice. Chara’s upward shove of the arm was more than just rubbing him along the boards, it put his head into the glass.
One of the worst hits I have ever seen and of course we are all praying for Pax and his family.
But I am angry at a lot of people 1. Colin Campbell for his inconsistent standards. 2. PG and Bob for not protecting our skill players. 3. JM for not insisting on a tougher team.
Do ANY of you believe for one second that if Chris Nilan or John Ferguson had been on our team this would have happened? Of course not.
We have no nuclear deterrent. And this will keep happening, especially in the playoffs until the league sets a clear and consistent standard. This is bullsh*t.
I can’t say I am looking forward to HNIC’s commentary on this next Saturday….
I guess you are so impressed with your poop you need to show it to everyone twice.
NOBODY, and I mean nobody can tell me that Chara didn’t do this intentionally. How many seconds went by before ‘crunch’? Patches didn’t even have the puck. And you just know what was running in Chara’s mind from a couple of games earlier with regards to Patches push on the OT goal. And where would the Habs be health wise if Boychucks intentional knee had of made contact on PK? This bullchit ‘intent to injure’ took away from an otherwise fine performance by the boys.
Booins are Philly wanna be’s without the talent or coaching. They eat my ass. Not going to celebrate this win until I hear Max is up and walking. I believe he’ll be fine. God Speed Max Pacioretty.
I don’t think he knew who he was going into the boards with.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Forgot to add because I was still very upset over this.
Thoughts and prayers are with you, Patches.
The goons managed to lose a 3-0 series after leading 3-0 in game 7, what else do you expect from them?
Leafs suck, but at least they keep their game respectable. Bruins are just a bunch of ugly goons.
Who cares what that idiot Cherry has to say. I have not heard a word from him in years. I simply “mute” the sound
when he appears. I spend the time laughing about his weird
choice of suits. The man is a bufoon.
Kill a guy? Really? Well, then, it’s time the police stepped in to put an end to this nonsense because the NHL hasn’t shown any signs it’s prepared to do so. With 20,000-plus (?) witnesses, it shouldn’t be hard making the charge stick.
What length of suspension are expecting the league to hand down? What do you think he deserves? Now that I’ve been put in my place I fully expect the league the suspend Chara for the rest of the season — at the very least.
Chara is a veteran defencemen with a decade in the league, he didn’t know where the turnbuckle was? Please. He had size, position on Pacioretty, was facing it when he shoved him into it and knew Pacioretty couldn’t do a damn thing to outmuscle him. It was garbage, bully work by a player who had all the power to do whatever he wanted, he chose to try and kill a guy.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
I didn’t see Chara’s stick in Pacioretty’s skates before the hit (as someone says below, it took him three viewings). And, Andrew, just because I don’t share your perspective or grasp of history doesn’t make me delusional. Or my observation dog poop as someone else declared (and apparently exhausted his powers of argumentation in the process, unlike the others who took the time to disabuse of my ill-considered opinion.)
Chara deserved a penalty but I don’t believe he intended to injure. It looked like he was trying to rub him out along the boards. Vigourously, yes, but anywhere else but the stanchion and Pacioretty wouldn’t have been hurt as badly. That’s not to forgive what Chara did I don’t think it compares in viciousness to some of the other brutal acts I’ve seen this season, such as the head shots, and the ramming from behind. Maybe I’m becoming desensitized to the violence and disrespect that characterizes too much of the NHL today. I only hope Pacioretty makes a full and speedy recovery.
I posted it twice by accident and immediately deleted the content when I saw what had happened. Apparently it’s the first time it’s happened on this site which you were quick to detect. I am impressed.
With due respect, this was an act of payback, nothing less. This guy is a 6’9″ psycho who was pissed when Max pushed him in the back a couple of games ago, saw an opportunity for payback in a game that was out of reach and took it. Most people around hockey, whether its midget, junior senior or pro know that players hold a grudge and Chara is no different. The analaysts, Kypreos, MacKenzie, Barnaby, MacClean etc. all say this is an unfortunate result from a hockey play which is completely wrong. They don’t have the balls to report the truth or have been fed the NHL kool-ade too long to remember when they played. There was no other reason to finish that hit other than to punish. The argument that there was no intent is completely unbelievable and irrational given Chara’s view of the ice, Max’s body position and the fact that the puck was long gone. He could have rubbed him out, but he chose to fully extend his arm into Max’s head as it was hitting the stansion. If this isn’t intent to injure in the name of payback, I don’t know what is. Ball is in your court NHL.
I heard earlier in the day Colin Campbell was going to be at the game if thats the case Chara probably got nothing montreal is getting to close to the burins he doesn’t want to ruin gregory’s chances in the playoffs
“When people agree with me i always feel that i must be wrong” – Oscar Wilde
amen to mario lemieux, he was ridiculed two weeks ago when he sent a message even meant for players on his team. benoit brunet kept saying he was surprized that chara was capable of such a thing, bs i have seen him pounce on players when they were in a vulernable position.
furthermore this bruin team shows no remorse, this concerns me as an opponent and I do see some fear in some of our players. understandably they were thrown off for the third period. I hope Max is alright, he’s our bright light for this year. what a player he can become, I hope this can still be. Lets pray for him.
John, Chara took out Pacioretty with his stick in his skates before the hit, Pacioretty didn’t have the puck, he guided his head directly into the glass. This hit isn’t even up for debate. It was the most deplorable thing I’ve seen since Bertuzzi/Moore. And if anyone thinks Chara makes that hit if it’s anyone other than Pacioretty, you’re a special kind of delusional.
Great. Now you’ve jinxed Gill’s Hat Trick. Hope he gets it anyway.
I was joking dude. You asked for it BTW.
As well, you might want to lighten up a bit because your reply was anything other than mature.
A couple of years back I tried to put a number on how many woman I slept with in my life and I lost count at 200.
It must also piss you off to know that at 45 I was “dating” an 18 year old.
Yeah? well at 46 I dated a 17 year old! and I lost count at 201!! I am definitely superior.
But really why even bother, this is the internet, you could easily way 400 lbs and but tell us you look like Tom Cruise and have a sex life similar to that of Charlie Sheen
That was funny! thanks!
Wow. None of my business really, and I don’t have an opinion either way, but this is an excellently crafted post. I salute you, Slyder.
Age of consent is 16.
It’s been changed. I think you can’t be more than 5 years older than the girl now if she’s between 16 and 18.
It was a short lived fling and she was cute. Sue me. I also realized that it was wrong and put an end to it. But it was also a lot of fun at the time and I’d do it again because I am weak.
You better get a good lawyer. Under 18 is off limits for me at my age.
I can back it up BTW.
“It must also piss you off to know that at 45 I was “dating” an 18 year old.”
….
45 dating 18 is really pathetic
46 dating 17 is rape
200 is HIV
201 is AIDS
Tom Cruise is a scientologist
Charlie Sheen will be dead before he realizes how much money he could’ve put in his wallet instead of his nose
…400lbs is the only thing i believe here
That was mature.
I’m watching the Canucks game on my laptop in bed while the wife watches Glee. It’s called compromise.
Since your latex girlfriend probably doesn’t care what you watch, it’s not a problem in your van I’m sure.
Umm. Only Jews can make Jewish jokes. I can half-razz Frenchy because I am half French. You’re better than that CHSam. Don’t become like a Bruin fan.
Now apologize.
BTW his English is far and above better than yours. All that while living in Bill 101 land.
Shit. Sorry guys, just a bit sauced.
But gonna just say it, BUGS, you’re fulla shit. So it Habs Professor. And MANAPART.
Dumb fucks.
… and what am I, chopped liver?
You forgot TripleX, observer and that super-douche HH.
Shit. Sorry guys, just a bit sauced.
But gonna just say it, BUGS, you’re fulla shit. So it Habs Professor. And MANAPART.
Dumb fucks.
Get help.
lol
Bugs = hot air, aka shit LOL
CHsam, seriously?
Price cannot fight or even mess around. All he needs is a sprained wrist or worse and we are screwed. One of our few male players has to protect him.
No it’s, “I want the Rocket!”.

Indeed, he seems like a nice guy, and he looks like Mike Holmes.
Don’t mean to be a stickler, but if you’re gonna quote a great line, quote it right, yeah?
Thomas is that rare Bruin who isn’t loathsome.
The intelligent part of me totally agrees. The neanderthal in me would love to have seen Price beat the holy living bejeezus out of Thomas!!!
I’ll be watching this game with my club proudly in hand….well…when the wife and kids are not around anyway!!!
I don’t want to see Maurice tonight, I want to see The Rocket!
You mean my sign off? I am sure that is the correct line.
I don’t want to see Maurice tonight, I want to see The Rocket!
I’d rather Pyatt in for White. This game won’t be won with playing tough, that is not the style of play that wins games for the Habs. We will win this on special-teams and goaltending, and Pyatt is one of, if not THE best PKer on our team. Otherwise, I like the addition of Mara and I’m happy Cammy and Sopes are in tonight. GO HABS!
pyatt is just useless…i know, i know he does the best he can. i hope this is one of the areas the gg’s look at over the summer.
God, you’re an idiot Tony. Kessel has averaged just a little over 50 points in his first three seasons in the NHL, hardly ‘best player’ numbers.
I enjoy reading your comments, as much as I enjoy watching the first few episodes of American Idol. You know, when some poor soul gets up there and givesa it their all, and they’re awful, but the best part is when they get all indignant when they are told they have no talent. This might be a little above your intellect, Tony, but as Simon was apt to say, stop paying your vocal coach.
Hahahahahahahahhahahaha. No best player on Boston? Bergeron, Chara, Thomas, Kaberle, Kreijci and Savard have all either represented their countries or played in the all star game. Yup no stars there.
Seguin might be a bust. But I really don’t think so. Usually lottery picks end up on a team that is rebuilding, not a championship contender, thanks to the Laffs. Look at Toews, Kane, Crosby, Malkin, Ovechkin, Hall, Tavares, Stamkos and so on. These players end up on bad teams and immediately become a major part of the team. Because Boston is a legitimate contender Seguin falls on the depth chart and gets a minor role on the 3rd or 4th line. Rookies make mistakes and when you are battling for the conference or division lead you cant afford to have a rookie mistake. Had he been drafted by Edmonton his numbers would be a lot better because he would be getting first line minutes and first wave power play. I highly doubt all the scouts were wrong.
And don’t forget the Bruins still get a 1st and 2nd this year. In all likeliness Boston will get a top 10 draft pick. Remember Laff fan, your saviour Kadri was selected 8th overall.
Actually, one of the saddest moments I’ve ever seen on TV also involved the Habs & Bruins, in the early 80s, when a Bruins player named Normand Leveille went head first into the boards and never played again. I forget who hit him, though I think it had more to do with how he went down than with the viciousness of the hit. Not to minimize what’s happened to Pac, but I’m thinking he’ll be alright.
THE Saddest moment I ever saw on TV had to be Korean fighter Duk Koo Kim getting knocked out and dying, during a boxing match with Ray Mancini. Also in the early 80s.
This was the saddest moment i’ve ever seen on T.V. … i couldnt control the tears that just came out… how low can u go as a human being to even attempt something like that on a player…
all my thoughts and prayers are with Max … he is too young and talented to deserve this …
No wonder I never agree with you on hockey. You watch a game where the refs wear sheer socks?
Well, Barcelona dominated so much that Arsenal ended up with zero attempts on goal. (Somehow they still scored a goal – but a Barcelona player put it in his own net.) Arsenal could barely touch the ball.
man they look chippy tonight. they already got beat downs, cant play a clean game and come back from 2. unless the refs rip us off, im gonna say it:
OH LAY
(nah nah nah nah……..)
see….i retract
I’ve read all that so I’ll change my reply to him to say I find nothing funny about a guy getting concussed and being out for an indefinite amount of time.
Hope you are right and it’s as minor as possible. But concussions are cumulative. Keith Primeau was saying that he had 4 or 5 “official” ones, but in retrospect maybe the same again “unofficial” ones.
We will all be watching Colin Campbell tomorrow. If he had any integrity he will recuse himself and allow someone else to make the call due to his son being on the Bruins.
If he does not recuse himself, he’s full of sh*t. Because that’s the professional standard. No judge would sit on a case in which they could even be perceived to have a personal interest. That’s the standard and it is common to US and Canadian law. Not that Gary gives an sh*t about Canadian law.
He apparently passed some severity tests. We’ll know more in a week.
I thought he was dead to be honest. But seriously everybody (not you) calm down. There is a division up for grabs. Level heads must prevail.
Let’s take this!!!
I made light of the credibility of my opinion, not on the seriousness of Pac-Man’s injury.
Isn’t that correct?
We won’t really know severity for a while. There may be no bleeding in the brain but a lot of players are missing months with post-concussion syndromes. Wouldn’t be surprised if Pacioretty doesn’t play again until next season.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
It’s a concussion and it isn’t a severe one. RDS reported it earlier.
Did he mean to hurt him when he got on the ice? Certainly not.
Did he mean to hurt him in that fraction of a second when he knew he had Pac-Man at his mercy with a stanchion comin right at’em? Yes, I believe he did.
Heat of the moment. Gonna crash the guy into the stanchion. We’ve seen it a hundred times with the guy gettin back up and shakin his fist instead of lying comatose on the ice.
He pushed him. Watch it over and over at normal speed (no need for slomo) and you SEE it. He pushed him into the stanchion. Deliberately.
Dunno, I just see as he leaned into a player against the boards like he’s done a thousand times before, but he lapsed in thinking of where on the ice he was positioned and Max was still trying to plow through.
Did Jack Edwards not predict that “someone was bound to get his head taken off”?
Scary stuff right there…
I am pretty sure Campbell doesn’t overlook this game due to his son being a part of it.
I hope that Patches is okay. That play should be under review by the League. That was just as bad a cheap shot as if hit from behind. Patches had Chara beat cleanly and Chara knew it and knew what he was doing with that hit too. He got 5 minutes and a game so the refs had to see it that way also. Now lets see what the idiot Campbell will do.
To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.
Actually Todd’s was a couple of weeks and Chara’s was a couple of months. Chara’s been trying to get at Pacioretty since January now.
I think the difference in that situation is the amount of time both players premiditated their attacks. Todd’s was a good few seconds; Z’s was half a fraction of one.
and he didn’t say in his interviews that he meant to harm Moore either. WTF are they supposed to say?
Yeah I could’ve seen a slash to face being a nice act from Gomez. That would get him off the ice for awhile too.
Gomer could have won me over tonight. If he had done anything after the Chara hit, i would have given him full credit. A slash, drop his gloves and turtle, absolutely any response to the fact that someone just did that to your teammate. But instead, he sheepishly had a couple words for him. Let me ask you this, if Hal Gill had hit Bergeron like that, what would the response have been.
Gomez confronted Chara, but the ref interfered.
Just what would you expect Gomez to do to that ape. Chara would have him for lunch. Gomez got in his face but the ref got between them
That 2 many men BS needs to stop.
It has become abundantly clear that NHL commisioner Gary (mini me) Bettman is of the Sheen, Lohan school of No such thing as bad publicity. That perhaps a few deaths could finally spark some interest down in the sunbelt.I suspect that when (not if) a death occurs we will hear the familiar hollow words from the league turning an avoidable tragedy into an “unfortunate incident”. While the owners and their little lackey count the millions pinky firmly planted on their upper lip.
Microsoft officials have said that applications that perform with Vista have to labor with Windows 7, you will discover exceptions. 45-page “Windows Application Quality Cookbook” (Version 0.9 of which Microsoft released for download on November 3 on its Microsoft Developer Network site) itemizes some of these potential gotchas in the hopes of getting developers to head off problems sooner rather than later. though compatibility between Vista/Windows Server 2008 and their successors will be “high,” according to the Softies, it won’t be 100%. From the Cookbook intro: Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 (a k a Windows 7 Server) are highly compatible with most of their respective applications written for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista,microsoft office pro 2010 x64, Windows Server 2008,discount office 2007 Enterprise, Windows Server 2008 R2 and their service packs, some compatibility breaks are inevitable due to innovations,microsoft windows 7 ultimate product key, security tightening,office 2010 Home And Business x86 key, and increased reliability.” Cookbook itemizes new features and changes to the Windows 7 operating system (both client and server) that are most likely to affect application compatibility. It ranks these changes from highest to lowest (in terms of severity and frequency) on their potential impact. Microsoft’s list of Windows 7 changes most likely to affect application compatibility (ordered from highest likelihood of impact on down): Internet Explorer 8—User Agent String

Microsoft officials and some market researchers have cautioned customers,office 2007 Enterprise generator key, moving straight from XP to Windows seven will be as painful from an app-compat standpoint as was moving from XP to Vista. That’s why many pundits have suggested business users who aren’t planning on skipping Vista still run some pilots so they can see just how compatible their apps and drivers are likely to be with Windows seven. still occasionally hear from customers that their apps and drivers don’t function with Vista. Are there any classes of custom programs and/or peripherals with which you’re still having app-compat problems? to WinBeta for the original link to the App Compat Cookbook.)

has started privately beta testing a fresh tool, identified as “Windows Advisor,microsoft office Home And Business,” which is aimed at helping consumers better pinpoint why their Windows machines might not be up to snuff. officials have been saying that Windows — and especially the much-maligned Windows Vista — isn’t to blame for all of users’ PC problems. Faulty drivers and badly written apps are often behind users’ unhappiness with their new PCs, the Softies have said. Microsoft is making sure that users will be able to place blame where it belongs with Windows Advisor. a source with access to the private beta information Microsoft made available to testers earlier this month: in the past support was limited to a help desk,discount microsoft office 2007 key, today the lines are becoming blurred between the various technologies. When a user has a sluggish Internet connection, is it due to a connectivity issue,office 2007 Enterprise keygen, spyware, a virus,office Standard 2010 serial key, an outdated or poorly maintained computer, the router, a failing hard drive, or simply the customer’s impatience? To be effective in today’s environment, computer care and support services must be more comprehensive and accurate. That’s where we believe Windows Advisor comes in. Advisor is an easy-to-use self-help device that notifies users about problems on their PCs and helps fix them. Windows Advisor scans users’ PCs continuously, notifies them about important issues, and, when possible, suggests easy fix solutions. The program also provides users with self-help solutions, including a 1-click checkup function that enables them to check their PCs whenever they like; tips and tutorials that teach users how to perform certain actions on their PCs; and a toolbox that concentrates the important tools that are found in the operating system into one easy-to-find location.” Advisor currently supports Windows XP Service Pack (SP) 2 and Windows Vista. The beta version is available in English only. asked Microsoft how long the company expected the Windows Advisor beta to last and how many testers it had invited to participate in it, via its private Connect test site. The only info the company would share, relayed by a spokeswoman: is continually developing tools to help customers get the most out of their PC experience,office pro 64bit key, and will keep you posted as we have more to share.” Windows Advisor testers out there want to weigh in? What about PC vendors and others who are incurring costs for Windows Vista support calls? Do you think this tool will help Vista’s continuing image problem?
Boston and Chara have had a vendetta agains Habs and Patch since the push in the back incident. Look at the HISTORY here not just the hit. He went after Patch after the shove, claimed he would settle the score before the blood bath game, fought Patch, slashed him in the back of the legs and drove him into the glass post when he saw him coming up ice — without the puck, Dirtiest thing I have ever seen in 50 years.
“My face is my mask,” Gump Worsley
The solution to all of these cheap shot hits is quite simple: you are suspended without pay until the player who was injured returns to the lineup.
1st hit looked bad, simply because Grabovski had his back to Chara… and isn’t the NHL trying to get rid of hits from behind? The 2nd one is a lot tougher to call… at first I thought it was just a good, clean hockey hit…. One huge guy simply nailing a small guy! On a 2nd look, I’m not so sure, maybe its border line and you will see border line hits and plays as long as you allow hitting in hockey. (and for the record, I don’t want to seem them get rid of hitting [or fighting] in hockey!)

First things to begin with: This isn’t an April Fools’ joke. on new job ads on Microsoft’s Store Careers site, Microsoft is looking to open more Microsoft retail stores in San Diego and Denver,microsoft office Home And Business 2010 64bit, Silicon Alley Insider reported on April 1. enlarge the job listing screen shot above, click on it.) and When this comes to pass, that will bring the total to four for Microsoft’s brick-and-mortar stores. (The existing two are in Scottsdale, Ariz., and Mission Viejo, Calif.) Just heard back from a Microsoft spokesperson who confirmed the Denver and San Diego stores are coming but didn’t have information to share on the timing of their openings. on recent messages of one of the folks I follow on Twitter,windows 7 home basic activation key, I’d say the San Diego store opening sounds like something that’s going to happen sooner rather than later. I’ve asked Microsoft for official comment on the two new stores but have yet to hear back. to begin with went public about its plans to open retail stores in Febraury 2009. At that time, the company announced it had hired David Porter as Microsoft Corporate Vice President of Retail Stores. Porter was formerly with Dreamworks Animation and Wal-mart. wondering why Microsoft is going to open a store in San Diego — which is just 60-plus miles from Mission Viejo — and Denver, rather than somewhere east of Colorado. I know real estate in New York is pricey,buy microsoft windows 7 32bit, but we sure could use a showcase here for the variety of Windows PCs from various OEMs. I like my local Best Buy here in Manhattan,microsoft office Professional Plus 2010 cd key, but when I was in the market for a Windows 7 PC last fall,win 7 ultimate cd key, their selection was pretty limited. There are two Apple Stores in Manhattan. has patterned its retail stores after Apple’s in many ways. But the emphasis in Microsoft’s current stores is less on selling PCs, software, peripherals, games and the like, and more on showing current and potential users what’s out there and how it works together. you think the retail-store strategy is a good one for Microsoft? Where do you think the company should open its next stores?
There isn’t a journalist anywhere with the stones to call out the mongloid Chara, even everyone’s hero Slob MacKenzie. Punch drunk ex hacks like Barnaby or BJ Stock don’t have a valid opinion.

been eerily quiet about the Microsoft Midori front — at least since March of this year when Jonathan Shapiro quit the stealth Microsoft operating system project and left the company. hasn’t been willing/able to comment on why he left. And Microsoft execs have continued to refuse to acknowledge much about Midori other than yes, there was a codename for an operating system incubation project by that name. gotten more than a few reader queries about Midori. Did Microsoft quietly kill the effort? If not, what’s the latest about it? September 18, a thinly-veiled Midori reference appeared on a blog of one of its team members, Joe Duffy (who identifies himself as “principal architect on an OS incubation project at Microsoft”). Entitled “We are hiring,” Duffy’s post begins: have several positions open on my team here at Microsoft. team’s responsibility spans multiple aspects of a new operating system’s programming model. The three main areas are concurrency, languages, and frameworks. When I say concurrency, I mean things like asynchrony and message passing, data and task parallelism, distributed parallelism, runtime scheduling and resource management, and heterogeneity and GPGPU. When I say languages, I mean type systems, mostly-functional programming, verified safe concurrency,office Standard 2007 key, and both front- and back-end compilation. And when I say frameworks, I mean virtually anything you could imagine wanting out of a platform framework: all things XML, data interoperability (database, web services, etc.), collections,microsoft office Home And Student 2010 x64 key, transactions, multimaster synchronization, and even low level things,microsoft windows 7 enterprise x64, like regex, numerics,microsoft windows 7, and globalization.” realize there is no mention in Duffy’s post of Midori, or even Singularity, the Microsoft Research operating system project (which was the original inspiration and foundation for Midori). But past leaks about Midori have indicated that the operating system is focused on bringing concurrency, distributed computing and parallelism to the fore. by the way, was Lead Developer and Architect for Parallel Extensions to .NET. and author of the book Concurrent Programming on Windows.) are no new hints about how close Midori is to debut or any new insights as to how Microsoft is planning to position it if and when it does go public. But at least it seems Midori hasn’t fallen prey to the cost-cutting ax,windows 7 home premium 32bit, at least for now…. to reader Vincent-Philippe Lauzon for the pointer to Duffy’s post.)
As weird as it seems, I actually agree with you haha.
Pouliot would have dropped Lucy
Morons… the lot of them.
Just finished watching the Sportsnet group and then read Bob McKenzie’s latest twitter updates.
The overwhelming sentiment expressed … clean hit, unfortunate result.
Probably a preview of what we’ll hear on HNIC this Saturday.
I am going to be sick! Checkout this link and watch @ the 1:26 mark. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63k03M1isCY
Chara meant it! TSN isn’t doing this justice!
Find the long angle and pause the video at the time of the hit. Chara and Pax haven’t crossed the red line yet and the puck itself is WELL inside the far blueline (two full lines away) and almost in the corner already.
The fact that he hit him at all show intent, that it was a head hit into a sturdy object against a victim this predator has been stalking for three games since January now… ya, an accident alright, just like Cooke didn’t mean to hurt Savard either right Bruins? The media defending this P.o.S. should be ashamed of themselves.
Did you you hear matthew barnaby on that’s hockey 2 nite? The ass clown said Chara didn’t mean to hurt him, and Chara isn’t a dirty player. Are you fing kidding me what kinda hockey does he watch?
Thanks for the info.
Thank God.
I really hope that this is one of those injuries which is much less serious than it looks…
great news
If that typical Julien-coached scumbag is not suspended for the rest of the year by money Bettman then this league is way beyond ever being called “big league” again!
hopefully the mods go through some of the comments (dm1981) and ban these idiots. nhl has to suspend chara. if maxpax career is in jeopardy, he’d have an easy case, any lawyer would drool over the settlement. i think the video evidence shows pretty clearly that chara saw the turnbuckle and directed him towards it.
Goals are fun.

Anybody know why Saturday’s game in Pittsburgh is a 2PM start????
Well, he’s a thoroughbred, and maybe your wife doesn’t recognize that, but then again, I can’t bake bread all that well.
Sorry I had to throw that in there. This comes to mind whenever i hear “My wife thinks…”
Edit: I thought i should note that this was a quote from bob gainey, i’m not trying to be an anus here
Haha. You watch Glee.
The puck was gone, he finished a check to the head. I thought it was cheap, others will disagree (especially the homer Bruins announcers, who make me physically ill).
The overarching issue, sadly, is someone is going to have to die before the league truly addresses head shots in any meaningful manner. Chara won’t get much, if anything, and then the league will have to again deal with the notion that its inconsistent dean of discipline has a kid playing on the Bruins.
I hope Pacioretty recovers quickly but I can’t say that I think that will be the case.
On a lighter note, the wife thinks Scott Gomez looks like one of the gay kids on Glee. Beat that for an obtuse posting on HIO…
hiya bugs, hope all is well, just a heads up you may wanna rethink that word
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=beaners
or not, just sayin
Big win but for Pacioretty, I’ll be surprised if he’s back by training camp. If you look at Crosby, he’s been out since January from hits that werent near as bad as the hit today. If you look at Savard, he was out cold for awhile, exited on a stretcher and he was out for almost a year. If you look at Ben Fanelli from the Kitchener Rangers, he was out cold for awhile, exited on a stretcher and he was out for almost a year. Pacioretty was out cold for what seemed like 5 minutes, exited on a stretcher and if the Habs care about him like they should and don’t rush him back into the lineup, he could be out from anywhere between training camp and december.
Lucic had to change his pants when Gil stepped up to him
I know it was early in the game, but you know that the fight between White and Boychuk set the tone for the Habs. White dismantled Boychuk. After that fight the Habs took over.
I guess Boychuck is not so brave fighting another guy who can handle himself. He wasn’t fighting Spacek tonight. See how that little POS Lucic is such a f**king idiot. He chased down Pouliot all the way from the Habs blueline to the Bruins zone and then demanded Pouliot fight him. He is such a chicken why didn’t he ask White to go, I’m sure White would have been more than willing.
To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high.
I was with you until Chara shoved his arm up. Pax was off balance and out of the play, but no, Chara had to shove his head. Watch it again. That embellishment is entirely unnecessary.
It was just a game or two ago that Lucic tried to hit AK after the whistle, but Lucic was the one who ended up on his a$$. It was hilarious.
Cousin Brad is a rat. He is also a dressing room cancer.
Go Habs Go! 2010-2011
I totally agree. Marchand’s a little rat. Although Tom Fergus (ex-Leaf) on TSN’s OTR put it nicely… “that’s just a dumb comment.”
Anyone else see the hyprocisy, when Brad Marchand, a rookie player,shoots his mouth off about an entire team, made up primarily of veteran players and no one in the NHL or the media affiliated with it cares to critique it, but when Subban alledgedly disrespects other players its a scandal?
Someone should ask Marchand if he thought that MaxPac was diving…I bet he’ll say yes.
Lucic would kill White. I have no idea why so many people think White is some big heavyweight. He’s listed as 6’0″, 200 lbs, which means he’s actually closer to 5’10″, 190, and no where near tough enough to try to take on Lucic.
its building up baby..here is what I do – have Ryan White all huffed up on smelling salts..wait till Lucic is headin to the bench after a minute long shift and send White out there, fresh as a summer breeze to force him to fight….I was expeting zero fireworks but for some reason – got a feeling it may turn into a total gongshow…should be fun.
Who says Beaners can’t be objective?
WOW! Looks like Price is favoured over Thomas for the Vezina!

“Hey Richard, two minutes for looking so good!”
Weird.
I mean, it’s a Bruin site, isn’t it?
Those Bruins fans are harder on their team than we are. Hard to believe!
“Hey Richard, two minutes for looking so good!”
He sure as hell is amassing a ton of pity now, tell you that fer nuthin.
Consider the source!
Barnaby commenting whether anything was dirty or not is like asking a thief if he ever stole anything!
Chara put up the elbow to make sure Pacioretti hit the stanchion.
Gutless puke fitting captain of a collection of gutless pukes.
Julien is responsible for the way his team plays nobody else!
Julien orchestrated having all his goons on the ice for the last 2 minutes to try and repeat Feb 9.
“The Allo Police Media – a collection of bitter ex-coaches, players and wannabees whose collective lack of success accounts for their present positions in Sports’ equivalent of the Jerry Springer Show”
When i started voting Carey had 58.83% of the vote. 20+ votes later and he sits at 61%.
Every little bit helps.
Price is leading by a wide margin over Tim Tom. Gee I wonder how that happened?
“Hey Richard, two minutes for looking so good!”
So the writer figures that any votes that Price gets will be ‘pity votes’?
Yep. That and a few well placed comments here and there
***Subbang!!!***
I know this will sound biased, but Price has played in 18 more games than Thomas. That equates to 1080 minutes of ice-time. How could you give the Vezina to a goalie who’s played a bit above half the season. The bruins defense is quite superior to the habs, this year especially with all our injuries. Sure, Thomas has the edge in GAA but that is purely a team stat. Then again, so are wins. That’s why I think it comes down to the fact that Price has played so much more than Thomas.
Just voted….Carey Price – 63.4%
….Hab4life….
I’m actually surprised that Pekka Rinne isn’t getting more mentions.
He’s playing on a sad-sack team, but is singlehandedly holding them together à la Luongo in Florida.
Look: 23 W, 2.10 GAA, .929%, 5 SO.
Not bad for playing in Nashville, eh?
—Hope Springs Eternal—
NESN is asking who should win the Vezina. Curiously, Timmy Thomas has a massive lead in the votes.
Maybe some of you would like to check a box?
http://www.nesn.com/2011/03/will-carey-price-edge-tim-thomas-for-the-vezina-trophy-this-season.html
I hope the league throws the book at Chara. What an a#@ clown!
Ya right. a Bruin hitting a Hab getting suspended for it? May as well wait for peace in the Middle East… it’s more likely to happen first.
My dearest, dearest heaven. My prayers are with Pacioretty. That was extremely ugly. Let’s hope its not as serious as it looks but…i’m not hopeful. Those look like the types of hits that can change a player forever.
There is no place for that in the game. That play was dripping with intent to injure. I’d love to see how the Bruins love-fest this weekend on CBC is going to justify that. Perhaps we had it coming for running up the score? Please Don, enlighten us.
And with that, we leave justice in the hands of one of Chara’s teammates father.
I have a feeling we’re going to be seriously disappointed if we think Colin Campbell is going to dish out fair judgement.
Vote more than once! Pretend you live in Florida!!
By “voted”, do you mean “voted ONCE”? Cuz once ain’t enough to have your voice heard, I’m afraid.
Back you go, sir, and do it right. Don’t stop voting until you’ve swayed the percentage by at least 3%, aw’ight?
I mean, are you a Hab or aren’t ya??!
Oh, your instigation hit home like a Hal Gill slapshot.
I voted.
I made my voice heard. I participated in the great non-democratic process known as internet polling.
I too, am an individual.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Think you might be missing the point of what I’m tryin to instigate over here, Matty…
Yeah, he’s not doing too shabby either…
—Hope Springs Eternal—
King Henrik ..???
If the playoffs started today:
http://www.nhl.com/ice/standings.htm?type=pla&intcmpid=nhln-button
Some good matchups there. I think we could take down the Caps again. The way the Rangers CAN play, they could put up a good fight against the Boo-ins.
On the other end, can the Canucks put away the Kings?
One of those knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers bashing the Habs for their “play-off meltdowns” hahahahaha
Don’t tell me, Sammy. Go to the site and tell THEM.
And don’t forget to vote…often.
It’s only 12 more games 58 to 46, which isn’t insignificant. Thomas is on the verge of breaking Dominic Hasek’s SVPCT record … he is clearly the Vezina Goalie right now, and still I wouldn’t want any other goalie then Price on our team.
Agree, just because the Bruins and their entire organization have no class or respect for the game, it’s no reason to lower ourselves to their level and start acting like Luchicken and company.
POSTED ABOVE
The only reason for the negative chatter about P.K. is because he is a very difficult player to play against. And he can make a vet. player look pretty ordinary. They don’t like it and Subban is not afraid to talk back to them, he is that good and getting better every day.
I have watched him play at least 300 games. Every since he was a 16 year old walk on to his OHL junior team. He has played the same way every night. When you talk to him he is the most respectful, intelligent and classy kid that I have come to know in the game. He stands up for himself and is the perfect team mate.
Cheers to that!
Pyatt isn’t a sexy player, but calling him usless is a bit of an embellishment.
He’s a 4th line player and he does exactly what he is supposed to do within that role. He’s fast and able to skate the puck out and chip it deep to kill clock and keep the puck in a safe spot when we have the lead. He’s among the leaders of our team with regards to shot blocking forwards. He hardly ever gets penalties or gives the puck away. He logs very respectable PK minutes and his faceoff % is better than Gomez, Pleks and Eller.
He’s not flashy and he has almost zero offence, but he does what he’s expected to do; be responsible defensively, create energy and space, kill clock, create turnovers, don’t jeopardize the team. And he does all of that for $500,000.
He’s not the best 4th liner in the league, but he’s far from useless, IMHO.
It’s a recurring theme with the Habs. When I lived in TO in the early sixties and the Leafs were winning three, it was similar. Then John Ferguson came long and Terry Harper and probably others. Soon they won for four out of five years. Keep the faith.
Pollock was doing the retooling, not Bowman.
Habs were skilled and tough in the 70s; that’s a tough combo to beat.
I know. It boggles my mind when they say “ohh, hockey is a fast game and you can’t see it coming.”
Well, these guys are pro athletes. Pro’s have exceptional reaction time – this is why they’re pros. If Chara can’t see what’s coming on a play like this, which was not a split second decision, how did he make the NHL in the first place?
Some say intent doesn’t matter. I think it does.
I think Chara, a Norris trophy candidate, has exceptional vision, knowledge of the ice surface, and skill to use his body to his advantage. He knew what he was doing in that split second, he saw and knew that wall was coming and he made a wrong choice.
The man deserves at least 10 games. I would give him the season.
If we meet the Bruins in the playoffs and Chara’s there but not Pacioretty, that’s just not right.
I don’t want to face the Caps. They’re a totally different team from last year. They’ve spent most of the season learning to play defensively, and now they’re doing it very well. They’ve also learned how to win one-goal games. Tampa would be easier; they’re a bit like last year’s Caps, and their defence is subject to breakdowns. The only question mark for the Caps is their goaltending, since both Varlamov and Neuvirth are pretty young and inexperienced. But their rookie, Braydon Holtby, was sensational last night in a game they should have lost.
watch my posted video
Ya, I dunno, I really dont see that. He leans into him but I really dont see a motion that purposely puts his head into the post.
no class since bobby orr, Im disturbed, he was beat thats why he pushed him into the corners. this is a sad day in hab history. f*****g foreign piece of shit.
Late in the 2nd period, I couldn’t wait to come on here after the game and praise our kids, Eller, White and Price for the great things they were doing and what the Habs were doing to the Big Bad Bruins. Then MaxP gets hit and all that seemed less important. It was the scariest thing I’ve ever seen in a hockey game. I have only had the advantage of a few replays but my brother PVR’d it and played it back in slo-mo. I asked him if he thought it was intentional. He said origionally no, but after watching the replay in slo-mo several times it was obvious to him that Chara looked up, saw the stanchion, and knowingly ran his head into it. I am not going to rant and rave that the NHL will not do the right thing about this, I will not listen to the media’s opinions regarding this, I will wait for the decision to be made and then agree or disagree with their decision. A lot of comments have been made that MaxP also is OK. IMO, just because a guy is not dead or paralyzed, doesn’t mean he is OK to me. I will wait for a more accurate injury report.
This argument that it is the fault of the rink design, or that Chara can’t help the fact that a barrier is there etc… I say BS! You aren’t supposed to hit a player when they are in a vulnerable position. Whether it be from behind, chasing down an icing call, or..as in this case…when the player is skating next to the stanchion. Not only did Chara not respect Max in a vulnerable position, he took advantage of him and pushed him directly INTO the stanchion. If someone within the Habs organization doesn’t speak out about this I won’t be pleased…
—- Newfoundland’s biggest Habs fan. Hands down.
Watching OTR on TSN right now… Matthew Barnaby has to shut up. What a moron.
Talking up the Big Bad Bruins… and saying PK better not skate around “taunting” the other team because of “Big Bad Lucic.”
Funny… when BGL was around.. he was only referred to as… “No thank you.. I don’t want to fight… Lucic”.
GOD I HATE THE BRUINS!!!!
this is a sad night. as Cam said, pushes you to forget about the game and realize this is someone’s whole life we are watching flash before our eyes – past and future wrapped up in a moment.
only chara knows what his intent was, and whatever the league decides, and whatever anyone says anywhere about this, he is the one who has to live with his truth.
him, and Max Pac.
our prayers are with you Max.
Milbury insists on proving how much of an idiot he is. What a thoughtless moronic statement. I think I have to watch the video of the Big Bird ponding him again.
Bob McKenzie just retweeted the following on twitter.
“The way the rink was constructed isn’t Zdeno Chara’s problem” – Mike Milbury
Can’t say I’m surprised…
—- Newfoundland’s biggest Habs fan. Hands down.
The league will have a very tough decision to make. It was an incredibly scary hit. And i have to agree with PARTS of what Chara and Julien were saying – Patches played the puck and Chara was leaning into him and finishing his check, a simple, standard rub-out of his opponent along the boards…
the difference was the turn buckle – if that play happened on the other side of the ice, maybe Chara gets two minutes for roughing/interference/elbowing
but because of the turn-buckle and the fact that Patches was out like a light, we know have to talk about malicious intent, an elbow, and a targeted hit to the head of a vulnerable opponent.
Was he vulnerable?….Yes
Was it an elbow?…..Probably
Was it a targeted hit to the head?……….the guy is 6’9…even on patches – a guy who is 6’4 – it can look like a targeted hit to the head
that being said, determining intent can be borderline impossible. someone posted below that it isnt about malicious intent – i agree. and 2-5 games will be appropriate given the circumstances.
but again…tough, tough decision to make, and we all wish patches well
Maybe you haven’t been listening to, or believing, the people who PVR’d it and watched it over again and again in slo-mo. He saw what he was doing and ran him into it. I just have to have faith the NHL sees it the same way.
It’s just you.
Chara is a world-class athlete, he knew exactly where he was on the ice and exactly what he was doing.
Maybe its just me but as much as I love to hate on Chara, I dont think he meant to do that. It was a rub against the boards and Chara eyes were totally focused forward. He was gettting beat and used his huge frame like a million times before. He just leaned into boards like he all players do and with a guy his size, it can be dangerous. He should get a 2-5 games suspension, but I think more for negligence than being malicious.
watch it again. he looks to the left, and extends his arm
No debate to be had really. When you hit a guy on one side of the redline when the puck is in the far corner of the rink and drill his head into the glass like that in a 4-0 game after you’ve spent the last 3 games trying to get him…. it’d be like trying to convince someone that Charlie Sheen doesn’t have issues.
Chara: “…it’s unfortunate and it it just so happened the glass extension hit his head.”
yes chara, the glass extension extended itself and reached for his head.
We can debate all night and day whether a player intended to injure on a hit. The bottom line is if suspensions aren’t given out on a regular basis for hits like these, regardless if deliberate or completely accidental, it will result in serious injuries anyway. The league has got to get players to rethink their stance on the ice. Hand out suspensions anyway and players will think twice about putting others in dangerous situations. Think of the greater good. Ofcourse it’s a long shot for this joke of a league to do anything about it.
No. Hockey shouldn’t be played as a mug fest. If the league finally brings the hammer down on hits like that, then it has some intgrity, if not, than the NHL is a joke, and should be treated as such.
Wow i REALLY hate Lucic. Says the habs started all the fights last game.
Well Milan, why did the Bruins almost always get the extra penalty in the altercations, and i think i can recall you pushing carey price which started a fight, but Price must have thrown the first punch right? I also recall Ferrence give Pleks a nice two handed slash, THEN Moen came over which resulted in two very unresectful Bruin players beating on two habs who dont even fight. I guess Lucic just has a short memory.
That guys needs a lesson in not being such a douch bag with a weird nose.
Ahaha well said. Ever since that OT winner Patch scored and then shoved Chara, he’s had it in for him. In one of the scrambles behind Price’s net, when Chara sees hell break loose he just goes right at Pacioretty for no reason. HE was just standing there. Hi
Price did the right thing with Thomas. Thomas skates all the way down the ice and Price basically shakes him around and laughs it off. Smart and respectful kid.
One difference in Price’s game this year is that he guards his crease much better. Last year guys were parking themselves in his face with no retribution. Now he slams them in the back with his stick, love seeing that, he needs to do it. Guys were walking all over him.
AK can knock Lucic over with a good shoulder bump when he wants to, hoping he does tonight. Ticks that thug off to no end when he’s suddenly not the toughest kid in the sandbox.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
The Habs are long due for a hat trick, and it would be nice having it this week. Boston, cause they are our division rivals, and we need all those points.
The Blues to put the final nail in the Price versus Halak debate.
And the Guins, just cause.
I just caught the video “Ice Chips” TSN has on their home page. With each passing day, Lucic makes me vomit. The beatdown in Boston….what a joke!!! As much as I would like to see lucic on the end of a hit that would shut him up for a while, here’s to hoping the Habs stay out of the penalty box and run up the score. Wouldn’t this be a good night for Cammy to put up a career high in goals scored!
Just wondering out loud, but if Cary was a little more Patrick, how mashed up would Thomas’ face been last game?
I don’t want to see Maurice tonight, I want to see The Rocket!
Carey Price – “Everybody’s aware of whats what out there, I don’t care what anybody says. You’re aware of your surroundings, that’s your job out there to know what’s where.”
-tsn
Damn straight, Carey.
CHARA NEEDS TO HANG FOR THIS…
there is without a doubt malicious intent on the illegal interference… I watched the replay several times and CHARA CLEARLY LOOKS UP AT THE STANTION POST AND WITH PERFECT TIMING RAMS MAX-PAX INTO THE POST.
there was no puck…. i repeat:
CHARA CLEARLY LOOKS UP AT THE STANTION POST AND WITH PERFECT TIMING RAMS MAX-PAX INTO THE POST.
now this is judgement day folks, listen and measure every single damn response and comment from every hockey analyst, many have already fallen to my black book…. this hit is clearly INTENTIONAL as CHARA CLEARLY LOOKS UP AT THE STANTION POST AND WITH PERFECT TIMING RAMS MAX-PAX INTO THE POST.\
CHARA IS STARING AT THE POST BEFORE HE RAMS MAXPAX’s head into it….
that excrement needs a financially cripling fine and a life suspension from North America
Its easy for us just to just lean back and say we know for sure, but we really dont. I’m just calling what I saw, and I dont see Chara intentionaly doing it.
Verse 2.
Tend to Lucic’s face;
Take his teeth away.
Crush him now, spare him never.
Found a sacred place,
Lost in its embrace,
I want to stay in it forever.
I think of the days when the Bruins used to cry;
No goals to report brought a tear to their eye.
Jostling and pushing,
Emotions were strong,
I knew I had to go on…
Waiting for tonight, oh!
When they would be here in my town.
Waiting for tonight, oh!
I’ve dreamed of this night for so looooong!
Waiting for tonight.
let me ask you this – what muscle/call up would you recommend as an answer to chara?
before this game AND after?
do yourself a favour and youtube ALL of chara’s fights – which player in our system or ANYWHERE would we bring in to ‘beat him up’ or ‘teach him a lesson’?
i like guys like Eller, AK46, Pleks, and PATCHES. All of whom consistently give the bruins and CHARA fits with their skill, speed, and cerebral play. Dont believe me? Dont like my post?
refer to tonights 4-1 win and our 4-1 dominance of the season series a la the aforementioned players
*this goes out toe Habnofear and HardHabits…among others
problem is they have no best player to try to injure. they were OUTSMARTED out of KESSELL by Burke and all they have is a useless high draft pick seguin who is nothing special now or ever will be.
HEY BILL J & NB HABS FAN. CALL ME A FOOL YESTERDAY ABOUT BRINGING UP MUSCLE. I POSTED ASS-H34L JACK TODDS FAVORITE COACH WOULD LOOSE THE DOGS ( EVEN TODD MENTIONED THIS GOON AS A FAVORTE PLAYER) ON ONE OF OUR SKILL PLAYERS AND SEE WHAT HAPPENED. BILL &NB HAB YOU ARE THE FOOLS AND PROBABLY NEVER PLAYED A HOCKEYGAME PAST PEE WEE. iF GILLIES GOT 9 C3CK S45KER CHARA SHOULD GET 15 , BUT WAIT YOU POSTED CC WOULD BE WATCHING SO NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN. YOU KNOW WE WON BUT EVEN IF JB TOOK A RUN AT ANY BRUINS PLAYER AFTER THE HIT BY CHARA AND SCREW THE CONSEQUENSES THIS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN AVERTED BUT WOULD HAVE SENT A MESSAGE. EITHER OF YOU 2 IDIOTS WANNA REPLY?
I AM PISSED CAUSE NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO CHARA AND WE COULD LOSE ONE OF OUR BEST PLAYERS. BTW THERE WERE OTHER WHO ALSO THOUGHT BAD ABOUT BRING UP JB.
ANY TAKERS
I really didnt see the glance, he was looking ahead the whole time, he had no idea where Patches head was.
Cant even enjoy the win because of what happened. Late hit, disgusting result. Chara made the glance and knew where he was.
Habsinsideout1:
One man’s opinion: Chara knew exactly where he was and exactly where the glass extension was#Habs #Bruins
I’ve watched it now 4 times, and I’ve changed my my mind. There was intent.
Thanks for the kudos the other day! Glad to put smiles on faces.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Movie holds up surprisingly well. Nice pulp-noir story when it’s all said and done.
From the Beantown Beatdown to the Hochelaga Quashin’ Saga, baby!
SubBANG!
Off to see Liam Neeson in Unknown. Don’t know what it’s about.
“compensating??” He was beaten, but his partner was already on the play, it wasn’t as if Chara was saving a breakaway.
Even so, can we compensate for getting beat by taking almost someone’s head off?
Bob McKenzie calling it 2 games, does not see any intent. I beg to differ, no one can tell me Chara wasn’t looking at Pac when he made that shove.
http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=357203
“To me, it looked as though Chara was compensating for potentially being beaten to the outside by Pacioretty and after the puck had been advanced up the ice, the big defenceman attempted to rub the Canadien winger into the boards.”
From Sopel’s twitter account:
First off every say a pray for Patch. Hope he’s doing good. Huge win for us tonight. I love playing at the Bell Centre. Great job boys.
Barry Melrose: does not think it’s a suspendable hit
http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=6195531&categoryid=2459791
(This is the same idiot who thought Stamkos couldn’t play last year. Keep coloring that hair, Barry, you idiot.)
i agree with you but I still think certain teams (the same ones this generation as the last few) think team toughness and bullying though size could influence a game. this is why other teams build accordingling, still you a make a point the days of durbano are over, better comparison than Bertuzzi, he made a mistake and in end he is a good hockey player.
If anyone thinks there is going to be premeditated violence tonight, think again. The days of non hockey violence is over, or you will be sued into the ground.
Thank Gawd!
Bertuzzi saga lives on after seven years—click on this link line.
Is he ever an idiot. Not that I give a $#it about the fighting stats, but I seem to remember us winning more fights than just Carey’s too.
Very good article.
The Hockey News: “Unfortunately, the fact Chara isn’t Trevor Gillies or Matt Cooke doesn’t mean he should not have the book tossed at him by the league. Even the cleanest players in the league get reckless sometimes and that was the case with Chara on the hit on Pacioretty. A case of wanton recklessness should be enough to land Chara into some serious disciplinary trouble.”
http://www.thehockeynews.com/articles/38936-THNcom-Blog-NHL-must-suspend-Zdeno-Chara-for-hit-on-Max-Pacioretty.html
Pouliot won aswell!!!!!
Mtl 514 Go habs!!!!
that pouliot has it all, shot, fighting, skating, size, how does it all come together, please make it happen!
I think that malicious intent should not be the main focus. I think that the act should be the focus. Regardless of what your intent is you are still responsible for your actions on the ice. The fact that Chara chose to hit Patches in a dangerous area on the ice should be discussed in the meeting. Although Chara states that no intent to injure was present, he risked injury to another player in order to complete a check in a ‘high risk’ area of the ice and for that he should be suspended. My recommendation 2-5 games, but thats just my opinion.

Good call, I agree. Negligence more than malicious.
Admitedly a lack of skill prevented me from playing in the NHL, second to that was a temper that could be extreme. After the cheap shot by Chara I would have bloodied any bruins face.
Gionta never seems to have a problem going after Chara.
