  Absolutely no clue why Cole isn't playing more, especially on the PP.
• Comment on It's officially UGLY
  Ya, maybe you're right. Your websites hits would be down with half of the HIO readers kicking the bucket from heart attacks.
• Comment on It's officially UGLY
  Question of the day...... In retrospect, should have PG re-signed MAB?
• Comment on Canadiens sign D-man Campoli, announce cuts; Gallagher still on roster
  As much as the possible Markov implications bother me, this could very well just be depth signing given the performance of the young guys (ie Yemelin) that most of us thought would round out the d-core. I'd rather this signing now, then have to make a trade before the deadline, as has happened in the past. Imagine having to trade a 2nd round pick for him because of underperformance/injuries!!!
• Comment on HIO live-blog MIA
  I have to agree with you. I really questioned this signing once first announced. Going into camp, I thought that Yemelin and Weber would play alot better, and round out the D group, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Depth at D is never a bad thing. And once Markov gets back, we can be sure that there will be more injuries on the back end to follow.
• Comment on Habs camp teams formed
  I agree with the top 6, and you might be right about the 3rd line, but Team C has the entire bottom 6, including Endquist who could be a dark horse. I think the bottom 6 are the only lines that are undetermined going in.
• Comment on So how do you like your Montreal Canadiens?
  Agreed. In a perfect world, as per my last post, I'd like to see Halpern's replacement being a guy who can win faceoffs and add a physical edge - not easy to find.
