• Comment on Liveblog: First W of the season
  He posted some 911 conspiracy theories (that I happen to agree with) and got dog piled by by a bunch of posters with a fraction of his posting talents. After that he became a bit of a target so he left I guess. Too bad, he was a vibrant piece of the HIO community back in its formative days, back when I used to have an avatar....and before it became illegal to use the word HABS in the title of a Habs fansite.

• Comment on NHLPA to start voting Sunday on dissolving union
  In a word, no. Collective bargaining is a process that his protected and governed by certain rules and regulations, one of which is that the employees must be represented by a union or association of employees that is recognized by the appropriate labour boards. Once the players decertify and cease to be represented by the NHLPA the would no longer be able to benefit from the protections of collective bargaining and would be at the mercy of Employment Standards Act. In the US, labour law (or Labor Law) is governed on a federal level so it is neat and tidy. In Canada it is dealt with on a provincial level, each province has it's own labour laws and labour boards which is why the Canadiens were able to challenge the lock out while others were not. I side with the players however I believe decertifying under these circumstances would be wrong and constitute an unfair labour practice as it is being done in bad faith. I also think it would be a disaster moving forward and would likely result in a "NHL nuclear winter". At that point, might as well start seriously looking at the creation of a new league.

• Comment on Relive the Habs' 1992-93 Stanley Cup season
  So did they win 5-1 as per Red Fisher "RED FISHER The Gazette CANADIENS 5 WHALERS 1" or lose 5-1 as per Stu Cowan "The Canadiens opened the 1992-93 campaign on a losing note on Oct. 7, dropping a 5-1 decision to the Whalers in Hartford. Here’s the story that appeared in the next day’s Gazette:" ????
