Even though you’re overwrought with emotion knowing that Guillaume Latendresse will not play tonight for the Minnesota Wild, news from the Montreal camp is that defenceman Hal Gill is back in. The return of Gill, who missed a pair of games with the flu, means that Yannick Weber is out.

Anybody have a timeline for our clinic?
Spacek, Halpern, Pleks, Soepel??
And would it be possible to get Markov/Gorges back if we go deep in the playoffs?
I think this site needs an FAQ now lol
damn, no edit…
I don’t mind the site btw, I see this as a beta of what’s to come.
Good thing about the early start for today’s game is that it won’t cut into Celebrity Apprentice-watchin time, knowumsayin?
That Star Jones is gonna be a handful, you can just TELL.
Any of you guys know where I change my picture? I can’t find it in my profile editer.
You’re on your own baby. A great website has just gone down under.
I’m sure that when we get used to it, we will like it… it’s like any changes in life.
You need to go to gravatar.com and create a new account. Make sure you use the same email address to sign up for gravatar as you used to create your HIO account. Once you have a gravatar account log into it and upload your avatar and assign it to your email address. When you come back to HIO your avatar will automatically show (there may be a few minute delay and you will have to refresh your pages)
THanks pal. But sounds sort of complicated to a non friendly-computer-user rookie. Not you’re fault, though, you’re trying to help, unlike the owners of this once great site. Thanks again
I understand, but it’s really not complicated. You were able to find this website and create an account at some point. It is just as easy to do it (though you could make an argument about why you should have to) at gravatar.
Just go to gravatar.com and create an account (using the same email address as this one)
After that post back and I can help you further if you still need it.
appreciated.
Can someone tell me how to put up and use my profile pic….im stuck and dont know how cuz of the new website design….tnx.
This new thing is a pain in the ass!!!
so far postimg is at least faster than before “they” changed it.
huh?
Like i said before, i tried and tried to log in but got nothin. And i hope i dont have to put up with that nonsense anymore.
where are you not able to log in? On this site?
Where can I see the game online?
Um cbc.ca is streaming it online.
Thanks man.
no problemo
Your new site has an awful of complications. Not like the old one, where i log on and bingo. i’m on for a comment. It took me 3 hrs to get here and i still don’t know how i got on. and am scared to try again when this log expires.
hmmm this new format is almost as awkward as having a conversation with Benoit Brunet about menstrual cycles.
It may not feel right, Boone. But, we get to see a very important hockey game on an otherwise boring Sunday evening TV schedule!
Matt Cooke’s hit on McDonagh…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emTQpD8jmuw
mcdonagh was reckless with his helmet
Thanks Danno, Cook is gone for a long time.
Even Bobby Clarke said the Charra on Max hit was dirty. What would he think of this one, eh? Clarkie, of course, is a legend.
I don’t see the issue here, strong hockey play.
Yea buddy, are u related to that mike murphy guy?
Sorry, I should’ve added that sarcasm Icon…
this guy does not learn and he’ll do it untill he’s kicked out, sick player. The pegs gotta bench him after the suspension that he’ll get.
The chickens are coming home to roost. How long can all these contradictions exist at the same time? Lemieux and Shero both condemning head shots. Sidney Crosby being out all season. Cooke being a reckless head hunter. Now is the time for the NHL and the Penguins organization to cut the crap and send a strong message by suspending Cooke for a long, long time.
the pegs on one hand have their best player out since January decrying this kind of play but they employ the worst offender.
Here is the PERFECT chance for the NHL to make a statement with this incident.CLEARLY not a hockey play.CLEARLY it shows Cookes intent.CLEARLY cooke targets the head with his elbow.CLEARLY the NHL should get this one right,right?
If he’s not given 15 games for this stupid idiot play or hell ….i’d say ur done till next season ….take the summer to think about your ridiculous ways on the ice.If he does this again next time give him a lifetime ban from playing in the NHL.Thats all there is to it.Cooke is disrespectful to everyone and CLEARLY goes headhunting like no other ive seen and tries to hurt people.WTF is wrong with this guy???!!
I am almost expecting another lame decision by the league in spite of all your excellent points.
It would be hard for Lemieux to argue why he should not be suspended for a lengthy period. He is a repeat offender and shows no effort at all to clean his play up. He has no respect for anyone in the league.
Based on Lemieux’s recent comments, whatever the NHL gives Cooke, the Penguins should add to it.
Lemieux must be very proud of him (again)?
Go HABS Go! Big game tonight.
No Glamour
Godammer!,
He’s the Hamr.
Pleky with groin injury, unconfirmed. Possibly serious.
Halpern and Pleky are out for two weeks or more.
So that would mean we get them back right before playoff hockey (if indeed we can make it that far with this rash of injuries). Does anyone know when we get Spacek back? And is it possible to get Marky or Gorges back if we make it deep in the post season or are they definitely out until next season?
I think Sapcek is deemed to be ready for the playoffs. Don’t expect #79 unless we go very very deep, like June. Gorges is probably out till Sept. The next body back is probably Darche.
How do you know?
Who’s the source on this update?
If I told you I would have to Kill you, or he would kill me.!
Quit with the life in jail talk Ian, for gods sake. u know better than that.
CKAC.
Hey bugs,
Where did you hear/read this?
I thought JM said “day to day” initially.
Everything is “day to day”!
meaning the news is day to day i guess
Lovin’ the new look.
Crap! Go away for the weekend and all this happens!! Hell, it’s not even called Habs Insideout anymore. Are we trying to court non-Habs fans???
It is a nightmare! By the way, where is nightmare ? (Bryan)
Wondering the same thing Ian…the last time he was on, said he had been having computer/internet problems.
Auld or Price? Mixed messages, though I trust Men’s Ice Hockey Inside Out more than I do TSN or CBC.
Alex Auld is starting today according to CJAD.
Thanks
So, what’s the over/under on Matt Cooke’s suspension?
How long does it take for my gravator to show up?
A minute.
Lets see…
they say 5 to 10 minutes. gotta make sure you use the same email for thgis site and the avatar site.
How many did Heatley get? I say double that maybe?
6 games. Any word on when Pleks and Halpern are back?
McDonagh’s head foolishly got in the way of Cooke’s elbow.
No suspension.
Two problems here that need to be addressed: (1) McDonagh clearly jumped into Cooke’s elbow, (2) Elbow pads need to be redesigned so that players don’t get as hurt when, during a hockey play, they’re unfortunately thrown into them (or throw themselves into them). In the end, McDonagh got up right away so he was milking the refs. Apparently we’re not happy unless the victim is badly hurt.
Don’t forget that had Cooke swung his elbow out anywhere else on the ice, it would have hit air, just another hockey play, so really, is a suspension gonna solve anything?
He better get at least 5 games. This guy is mental,you’d think all the hype about head shots,he’d think before hitting. Don’t tell me he didn’t have time to hold up.
5 games repetitive offender rule
Darn! The Rangers won thanks to that moron Cooke. Three back of us! We NEED to win tonight!!
That’s only bad if you’re worried about staying ahead of the Rangers instead of catching Pittsburgh.
That’s what I’m worried about.
Which? “That” doesn’t choose between an either-or. Are you looking in the rear view mirror or stepping on the accelerator?
I’m not cocky enough to think that with 8 regulars out that we can’t be caught from behind. I always appreciate losses by the Rangers/Buffalo/Carolina. When we clinch than I can relax.
cocky enough to think Pittsburgh might be vulnerable while missing a couple of super stars?
Shoot out to Robert L.
Thank you so very much for setting up my new account with HIO Robert.
It was very nice of you to phone me and offer to set it up for me.
Looks like we are up and running now. All I have to figure out is how to edit and understand how things work.
How does one click on other members profile, to see who we might be talking to.??? And how do we e-mail each other through the site now???
Good to be back on. I owe you a couple beer at the next Summit Robert.!
It was sure frustrating the last 24 hrs. trying to understand. More bugs to work out in the system I’m sure. “Pun intended BUGS”
Ian, i do not beleive we can click on names to see their profiles as of now. Im assuming and hoping that this changes soon.
Im glad you got your stuff set up!
If you have a website link in your profile, clicking on a poster’s name will send you to it.
Habsbros in my case.
What do you mean a website link in my profile?
Can you read my profile Bugs?
Not yet, I can’t. I either don’t know how or haven’t cracked the mainframe yet.
But what I’m saying is: if you go down this page and click on your name beside the comment box, you will be directed to YOUR homepage. Under “Contact Info” is the box marked “Website”.
Whatever website you put in there becomes a link on your posts. Folks will be able to access it by clicking on your name.
Is that clearer or did I make things worse? Cuz I’m not sure I understand myself…
lol don’t worry. What you said makes sense
How come they help you out with the personnal touch ian? Hard to believe but I’m just as good as you baby and i get none of that stuff. Favortism sucks!!
He’s big…
He’s ill
He’s Hal Gill
test
Better win tonight.
TEST AGAIN
Testing 1, 2, 3
For those of you looking to get your avatars back you can find the instructions by clicking on “March 2011″ from the archives on the right of the screen. It’s really simple to get it back.
Every time I see that white star in a red circle on a blue background, I am reminded of North Korea!
That’s where Boone has his summer home Sheldon.!
I have visions of model planes flying through my head.
So TSN is reporting Price in, and Hockey Inside/Out is reporting Auld in. Who should I believe?
It is most likely gonna be Auld like many people have said there playing against a western conf. team that if they do lose points it don’t matter, even though 2 pts would be great. i think Auld gvie the kid a rest.
this is a big game for all the reasons i posted before. especially now that rangers won, buff playing at 5pm and buff who beat habs twice in a row coming here tuesday. there is a HUGFE diff from finishing 6th – or 7/8 this year in who you meet. this is a big game. that price story JUST RECENTLY was put up on that site after nyr/pitts game ended.
As I already said, I have been a member for over 4 years now and I’m not against “change” but this new format really sucks:
- No EDIT
- Replies are limited to 5 so far
- No information about other posters
- The feature that’s not acceptable at all is the relationship with Gravatar (W.P). Because the moment you log in the system start phishing your computer and places ads that they think you need. Case in point last few days I was shopping for car rental in New Zealand from my computer and guess what? I’m getting all the car rental outfits’ ads from NZ now on HIO. Is anyone else getting NZ ads? WTF NZ ads are doing here at HIO?
Furthermore, I prefer my privacy (I don’t join sites like Facebook) and I don’t want my picture/avatar appearing elsewhere whenever my email address appears for any reason. Third party controlling my information should be an absolute NO and I consider that a breach of trust (even though they may own/control The Gazette).
I’m sure not very many posters will miss me but I’ll will check back in a few weeks. If the necessary adjustments are not made, I’ll be gone. This format reeks of commercial use and abuse of our passion for Les Glorieux. After all, I can get all the pertinent news about my team elsewhere without any problem, the main reason I’ve been a member is to exchange ideas with other posters without any fear of invasions of privacy.
Salut & Cheers
Ali B.
I am in full agreement with you. Im also a member thats been here longer than most, and im not looking this one bit. I always enjoyed reading your posts, and i hope this beta testing crap is over soon so the site is streamlined and GOOD like earlier.
very dissapointed.
Regarding the adverts: I’m getting some rather generic adverts for des Sources Dodge/Chrysler and Concordia University. I haven’t been shopping for a car and I go to McGill. Maybe if you change your browser, the result will be more to your liking? I use Firefox.
When I’m reading the posts at HIO without login, I don’t see those unwanted NZ ads. However when I login they appear by magic.
PS: I use Macs (no virus problems) and use Safari and/or Firefox.
PS2: McGill is also my alma mater (attended in the mid 60′s for my graduate school). Go Redmen!
Cheers,
Ali B.
Ali, I finally got Robert to set up an account for me, but you are absolutely correct. They had better not release our privacy to the world. And this site was not introduced very professionally to people that do not have the new technology vocabulary. Especially to the long standing members.
I agree Ali B.
Habs Ole !
I very much agree with your points about the things you dislike about the new site. Not to be a whiner, but other than having to change the name at the team’s request, why all the other changes?
agree with everything.Fortunately for me, I’m not getting any advertisements at all.
LAST TEST
woo it works!
TSN says Price is playing!
testing again
testing to see if avataar works
Any word on Sopel and when he may be back in the lineup?
This new layout reminds me of a generic “blogspot” type website. But I don’t really care I guess…
Just out of curiosity, did anyone get a reply yet from the site people after sending their thoughts? And if so, how did they respond to your comments?
danno, i got no reply.
This site layout is a joke to me.
although i do respect that others may like it.
How do you go to previous posts? i want to see the page where the instructions for avatars are, and cant go “back”
and while they remade the site coulldnt they add a LIKE/UNLIKE or a PLUS1 MINUS1 thing?
as for my question id appreciate some help
rangers just won 5-2 over penguins
BETTMAN HOCKEY! HOORAY! HOW EXCITING! TEAM EARNS A 3RD PERIOD LEAD SO GIVE COOKE 5 MINUTES FOR NOTHING THEN SINCE RANGERS STILL CANT SCORE EVEN FOR OVER HALF OF 2 MAN ADVANTAGE SO GIVE THEM ANOTHER 4 MINUTE PENALTY SO THEY HAVE A 5 ON 3. YUP – THAT WORKED FINE AGAIN – RANGERS SCORE TWICE AND ITS GAME OVER. BETTMAN HOCKEY IS A FARCE!
Penalty for nothing? Did you even see Cooke’s elbow?
and 10 min for arguing it
players are reckless with their heads throwing them because they are wearing a helmet into other players vulnerable parts like into an arm.
And now a habs loss today especially if buffalo wins drops habs within range of either and both those teams trying to avoid philly and wash in round one.
glad Gill is back. i thought weber has been struggling as of late, not that picard has been much better. looking forward to getting sopel back in.
Lol north korean flag.
I agree, they have to lose that avatar
God does Matt Cooke think. Guy is sn absolute disgrace
Good old matt Cooke….back to his old tricks…..Elbow to the head of McDonagh and got 5 mins and the game…
Mario – get rid of this joke.
What was Mario saying about head shots? He’s got to get rid of this guy.
Let’s see what a repeat offender gets from the “operations” idiots at the NHL!
This should be interesting!
matt cooke is a disgrace. Toss him out of the league.
I guess they won’t be able to use the excuse “He doesn’t have a prior record”
Hope for a good game from “Les Boys” today!
http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_daddy/post/GQ-ranks-Montreal-Canadiens-fans-among-worst-in-?urn=nhl-wp643
Here’s a disgusting article I read Today about how WE are the worst fans in the NHL.
I didn’t know what do with this when I read it, but i knew i had to do something. Hateful Americans
wth does GQ know about hockey?
Apparently nothing. It’s not really the GQ comments that make me angry. Its the ignorant posting of Puck Daddy that got my blood bubbling. They mistake passion for hostility
i saw that, they printed it in the Calgary Herald, much to the enjoyment of the locals. And while I agreed that we can be the worst we are also the best.
SO what Picard is still playing he’s just as bad at least weber is offensive
Picard is streets ahead over Webber – plus Webber had a BRUTAL game on Friday.
weber hasn’t even been really good at all offensively lately.
The boys will at least come out of minny with a point tonight. But hopefully they can win it in OT or have auld get it done in the shootout. Gill back in will help and Auld will be decent by only allowing 1 or at the most 2 wild goals.
Shaker
Webber out after that MAB imitation in NY hardly a surprise!
Scratch weber, I think what you meant to say was hammer! I’ll rephrase the whole thing for you…….Hammer out after his piss poor showing in NYC.
Shaker
No paraphrase required it was Webber!
Hammer surely didn’t have his best game but at least he went into the corners willingly!
Webber needs a heart transplant, calling Josh Gorges!
You guys are ruthless…I feel bad for the guys that designed the site cause I’m sure they worked their ass off… just to hear everyone complain.
i like the new site i just cant fix the avatar i think they did a great job
apparantly my avatar works nvm haha
I still can’t get an avatar going.
me either
make sure the email address you used for this site is the same you usedto register on gravatar
A Sunday night in March with a 6PM start…wasn’t this the old time slot for the Academy Awards??? It was strange to be without a Canadiens game on a Saturday.
Anyone else having problems with auto-signatures? Mine still populates in my profile info, but doesn’t pre-fill when I post?
So who’s in net tonight?
auld is starting
TSN is reporting Price to start. Not sure why he would….. interconference game is a perfect time to rest Price
So what’s the D Pairing
Gill-PK, Picard-Mara, The Wiz-hammer.?
Probably. Or they might try PK with Mara, and Gill with Pics.
Hate the new website. Whats going on with Latendresse? I thought he was back. Healthy scratch?
Yahoo Fantasy Hockey has him as DTD
Did I just hear Milbury on NBC consider Christian Ehrhoff as a Norris canidate? Am I missing something here?
I got a letter from the Canadiens informing me that I was infringing on their copyrighted material so…….
So what?
I hope you told them to go shove it
I am throwing up as we speak, hence the new name.
Real mature, high brow stuff from you as usual.
I see no place on this site to edit a freaking profile…booooooooooooooooo
go down to the comment section and click on your id
Where it says logged in as “xxx” just before the comment box at the bottom… you should be able to click your username.
TSN is saying Price is starting?
Why not, Auld got in last game lol
Auld starts according to my twitter (as per the Canadiens)
good news Gill!!!
I will try to get used to this new site.
