    Nice to see some of the millionaires graciously donating their signatures and 30 seconds of their time to help the less fortunate. Makes my heart melt.

    Amen.

    Either way I can't relate to this much money. To me the owners are the owners, the players are the employees. I hate unions, they had their day and once helped the players get a fairer share - now the union is ruining the sport. I've been a fan for 30+ years and watched the NHL go from a great league to a sh*t league run solely by the American dollar. I will never come close in my lifetime to making the kind of money these guys make in just 2 seasons so I just can't wrap my head around all this. They've lost me as a fan. I still love my Habs of the 1st 100 years but I can no longer root for a bunch of spoiled rich kids. Can't do it...

    Hey guys, just a little stat of interest - we have the same number of points right now as we did at the same point in the season 2 years ago - we squeezed into the playoffs on the last day and went 3 rounds that year... There is always hope. As my late father used to say, "God likes the Montreal Canadiens". I don't know any of you very well but I hope you all have a great Christmas holidays. Joyeux Noël from Forest, Ontario!!

    I think your egg nog is better than mine.

    Agreed, a better return would be nice, but CBJ doesn't have any players that would really break the game open for us. I'm hoping if any trades happen they'll be with a different team... Go Habs

    Is there really a rumour of a trade with CBJ? What about Plekanec & Gionta for Umberger, Vermette and a draft pick? I think we'd get cap space, additional size and some new blood. We could make Josh our new captain. Geez maybe that's nuts but I've been into the egg nog early today.
