    I'm in Toronto and have Bellfibe which I think is similar to Telus TV. I got the Winnipeg game last night but not the New Jersey game and I'm not sure why that is. Makes me think twice about getting Center Ice but I think with my system I have to get a French bundle to get RDS and I don't want to do that.

    Good call.

    Yeah, if the Canadiens had drafted Doan they would have traded him for a bag of pucks after a couple of years.

    The whining, bitching and complaining on this forum is much more entertaining than the actual game. I've turned to Buffalo-Pittsburgh.

    Corey's worst decision wasn't firing Savard and Demers. It was firing them without having credible replacements. A lot of fans forget that Savard traded Leclair, Desjardins and Dionne for Recchi and a 3rd round draft pick. The Canadiens went into free fall after that and of course, the Legion of Doom was formed. If that trade hadn't been made I wonder if Patrick would ever have left the Canadiens.

    Not sure if this has been posted before but the next time time someone tells you they want McGuire to GM the Canadiens you should put them in a headlock and force them to read this article about Pierre's coaching regime in Hartford. He makes Mario look like Toe Blake. Here are a couple of highlights: "In 15 years of covering the NHL, we had never seen a coach so universally disrespected and disliked within his own organization." "In a blistering post-mortem, captain Pat Verbeek called McGuire's firing the best thing that could have happened to the Whalers. He said other teams mocked their coach. He said his own teammates had no respect for McGuire. He said a number of players wouldn't have wanted to play in Hartford anymore."

    Was wondering the same thing. Pretty much every number below 30 is retired why not his? I can't remember who was the last player to wear 25.
