That's because it's not home to actual fans anymore, outside the 300s, maybe. Lower part of the stadium might as well be a Bay Street boardroom.

I have no idea what'll happen but if my crowd goes out at least I'll know they tried and they cared.

Looks like the boys in blue choked and couldn't get it done again against the Ottawa crowd. I hate it when the TV shows the same program two nights in a row.

There are precious few of you who'll get this, but to fire up my kid's hockey team for game 1 of their Easter Tournament I gave them a Steiner Math speech.

I don't give a good godamn what Evans does for the rest of his contract.

One more goal from him and it's Prime Minister Kaiden Guhle. #gohabsgo

I've had a lot of Greenday stuck in my head lately. That's not a bad thing.

Help us Obi Wan KenGritty, you're our only hope. #Habs

I really want Laine and Demidov to get a whole "anything you can do, I can do better" thing going on.

Demi-God.

Butterflies? Butterflies. #gohabsgo

Newfoundlander BSers: best places to get passport photos done in Sin Jawns?

Matthews is playing injured.

So you think they'll develop plans either way and check the rankings day of and role with it?

Brian I think you're making an argument that the Habs have to know by Feb 20 if they're buyers/sellers/standing pat. If between now & then we play sub 500, it maybe too hard to crawl into the playoffs. If we play 500+ we have a chance. Do you see it that way?

Our Father,
Who art in Heaven,
And is a true stud playing puck.
Give us this a day a team
That remembers how to shoot the biscuit
And that greasy goals win games too.
For thine is the Kingdom
But this is our game
Forever and ever
All Canadians.

If you're watching Canada v United States at the World Juniors and you see a good looking young fellow holding a red "In George We Trust" sign, well, you've probably found my child.

Patty Laine wants Ruff fired.

I feel like if Hagens and Schaefer are off the board, the next tier for the Habs will be Misa/McQueen/Frondell. The gap at 2C might overwhelm the desire to go BPA/Martone unless Dach really turns it around in Jan/Feb

In Warren Ellis' classic "Transmetropolitian" main character Spider Jerusalem once submitted a opinion column that was just the word "F*ck" repeated 4,000 times. For no reason at all I am thinking of that and @arponbasu.bsky.social @bwildemtl.bsky.social and a few more you writer types. #Habs

I was just thinking that would be my kid's reaction if only he dared.

We tried playing a winger at C and it damn near ruined Drouin's career. I would like to not do that to Demidov.

Sean, the Habs are routinely rolling a 13-14-15 line (Caufield-Suzuki-Newhook). What's the best line of sequential numbers a team could boast?

It seems to me that more than most recent years, a top 1-5 pick could be interchangeable. You know, we could be "forced to settle" for Misa, Martone, Hagans or McQueen? Damn! What a horror!

If they can do that without losing a roster player, look what our depth looks like next year.

That being said, the plan might need tweaking. The plan was for Dach to be a top 6 C and the jury is out on that one. They need a high end 2C to compete.

Gudas Trouba is such a bad idea.

The Rangers aren't doing this because they're bored & if Dregs is right & they have multiple trade offers on the board then this whole thing must be prelude to something else. But what?

That man must feel like king of the world right now.
