  This trade has Bad Karama written all over it. Notice how the team was so genuinely happy for Ryder after his goals on Tuesday and Kovy's comments about it; notice Streit's increased presence in every aspect of the Habs' game... it's part of the chemistry that is so risky to tinker with. Hossa and his prolonged negotiation, his use of the media during it and his past in Ottawa all bring negative energy. I'm afraid this will be bad karma.

  What a great piece! It's great how you transmit his personality and humour and intimacy with the Williamses. And the can of WD40...priceless! (no pun intended)
• Comment on Tell us where you're from, Habs fans
  I'm from Panama, where the recipe for ice was lost long ago. Unfortunately, the poll would have me be an 'Other' since Latin America doesnt have enough hockey fans to merit its own region. oh well...

  While the list of players you provided seems accurate enough, I'd beg to differ on the 'conservatism' of Gainey's trade method. He gets taken to task on this a lot, but I think people too often forget the big brass ones it took to trade Theodore. Few saw that coming, and it can hardly be qualified as conservative. Plus, this is possibly the first year that the re-building has stopped and the Habs are actually in a strong position to be players in the trade market - as opposed to before when we would have been on the over-apying side of most trades.
• Comment on Report: No charges for O'Byrne, Kostopoulos
  A little perspective before going off on athletes (though, in other more serious circumstances I would agree): this is a very very minor incident that from the looks of it was more about over zealous cops than athletes-gone-bad. Legally, this would be a prime case for dropped charges: minimal damages caused, first time offenders and resolved minor theft. It is not at all comparable to OJ or Michael Vick, not even those speeding or driving under the influence (which is a much more egregious example of athletes getting away with anything). Respectfully, MAB the HAB

  What stupid rule says Breze-by must get ice time? This shows he should be nailed to the pressbox bench ASAP!
