The Canadiens are two points out of a playoff spot…That statement is embarrassing for someone who grew up with the dynasty teams of the 70’s. Those days are long gone, but for a team that still likes to harp on its storied past, the statement is embarassing.
Nice one Brian
Excellent wrap up,interesting information on Prices equipment. And the cup is certainly half full , what a difference a week makes! 2 points out Fantastic! Thanks Brian!
Being on the cusp of the playoffs isn’t terribly comforting when you think of this team. If this team does get in, will they be able to compete? Simply making the playoffs isn’t cutting it anymore, and honestly seems to be an excuse used by management to not make major changes. I’d almost rather not make it in that case so we make greater strides towards the Cup. Too early to say though, trades can be made, players can step up their game, so I will try to be patient (which is not my strong suit) and see how it plays out.
I thought you weren’t positive on the Habs making the playoffs after the loss against Arizona. Is it the strong Price come back that make you change your mind?
great stuff as always
i don’t believe in DET and OTT got smacked
BOS the Nemesis is to be afraid of. Despite injuries to key players, they are in the hunt and when Marchand and Backes will be back in the final stretch, they will be hungry.
What happens at the end of the season if the HABS are out by 1 points? Do u blame it on Price wearing gears he is paid for unfit for him?
