What a Gong Show This is Becoming

Hello Folks!

I Hope this link works that I have included in todays Blog.  Yesterday things got crazy in my Twitter world! Mark Recchi putting down medical staff in Montreal! This man played for the Habs, one of my all time favorite players! A good ol Canadian boy who just happens to come from the interior of Beautiful British Columbia! This man who came back to Kamloops and showed me the Stanley Cup!?! (well showed the whole city not just me) 

I had to research a little, and didn't have to go far to find this link. Thank you Joe Haggerty for this.  I am not a fan to fly off the handle every little remark that is made against my team; hey I live in BC, and my friends are either Canuck or Bruin fans.  My best friend is a Leaf Fan!  I take the comments towards my team like a man.

I do find it funny how some people are taking it as a Canadian vs USA type deal, but reality has MTL having more American players than Boston, and Boston having more Canadian players on the Bruins. Patches is American.....Chara is Slovakian and Recchi and Lucy are both Canadians.

Bottom line is that Boston players are happy that Patches is not hurt as bad as first reported!!!! Of course somebody somewhere is going to say something if a couple days after a reported concussion you are watching a movie in a theatre.  We are all happy that Max is able to do this; I have had a concussion before and it is not a fun time.

Mtl lobbying for a big suspension....doubt it. Media over-reacting about this whole issue....probably; but they have a job and this rivalry has been going long before either player involved was born.  I am pretty sure that no stupid play is going to happen tonight as this game means too much to both teams.  If someone tries to fight Chara, well you wont be feeling like going to the movies after it; and Recchi wants the attention brought to him, he can handle himself.  Shame on anyone who doubted Mark.

Take a note out of Claude Juliens book and stay away from everybody till puck drop. The game is much easier that way.

GO HABS GO!!

Big George!!

 Hello Folks!

What a game for Big George Laraque!  His parents are from Haiti; which just had  a huge earthquake.  Family over there and here he is playing hockey.  I think we all are wishing him and his family the best; plus all of Haiti.  BGL had one of his best games in a Habs sweater; and devoted his goal to the Haitan cause.  Good for you George! 

I am one very proud fan of yours

Montreal Canadiens Win ! Thank You Carey Price !

Good Morning Folks

Last night we saw what Carey Price can do in a NHL hockey game.  Save after save the young man from British Columbia is winning games and fan support.  This team does not shiver when the score is tied after OT.  Shootout! bring it on!

The Habs are a injured team that is having trouble finding ways to score; but not problem in net.  Both goalies Price/Halak are doing their job.  Defenceman Ryan O'Bryne has been cleared to play, so Matt Carle is being sent back down to the Bulldogs.  Thank you Matt; the only good thing about many defencemen injured is the call ups of young talent.  Good job! A definite keeper!

Another bright spot is Andrei Kostitsyn,  He has been shuffled around the line up for the past weeks to find his place; only to be put back beside Plekanec.  Good game!

The team as a whole skated harder, seemed like more scoring chances were created; the goals will come with the hard work shown. Latendresse is doing what he has to for a spot in the line up.

A very happy Hab fan

GO HABS GO!!!!

Whats the Plan after a bad Effort

Sunday morning

  I have been a fan of the Club de Hockey for all my life.  I witnessed a game last night that broke a record.  Players and Goalies who lived in the Gretzky era saw many records broken and re-broken.  The last thing they wanted to be immortalized as the player he deked or the goalie he scored on to break these records.  My point is that Montreal is on the wrong side of this record.  Now it was a team record for Nashville for most shots in a period; but a record is a record.  Good on them.

  I wake this morning thinking of what had happened and who to blame.  I understand that the teams defence is devistated with injurys; what i dont understand is the players who take to the ice not playing an inspired game.  When teams get injurys; which every team gets, its the players left on the ice that have to answer the call.

  Are these players on my favorite team a bunch men who dont care if they win or lose?  I dont think so, but its not my job to call players out on their performance.  I am more than a witness, I am a fan.

My job is to cheer my team on through and through...

GO HABS GO!!

Hello Folks!

Thank You for looking at my Blog, we are gonna have lots of fun this season!  Never a better time to start a blog out in the wild west; as the Habs are coming this way!  A Huge Hab Fan all my life, never happier when Montreal beats the evil Leafs.  Viewing the first 2 games of the season, we are very dependant on out favorite goalie Carey Price!  Man on a mission this boy is!

Gomez and Gionta are looking like great additions to the team! and Gorges looks like he's picked up where he left off last year.  I would be happy to see any one of these players wear the 'C' on their sweater.  Cant wait to see the west games, and watch this team gel more and more every day!

GO HABS GO!!!
