Anyone Hab An Answer?

The Montreal Canadiens organization has told the Gazette’s Habs Inside/Out to stop using the word “Habs” in their title. I’ve been at work and have come home to this news and at this point in time, I’ve yet to find out why. It’s something I’m trying to wrap my head around. What does it mean? Why [...]

Something To Ponder

“Hockey has always been a game of weight and power, and a small man needed a great deal of skill to make it as a pro. I believe that speed and skill are the best ingredients of the game. I view the Canadiens as playing a very fast, slick game but not being bullied by [...]

We’ll Take A Win, Thank You Very Much

Habs visit Washington tonight and do you know what that means? It means hockey is back after a winter week of Summer of Love. It means Bruce Boudreau is going to swear a lot. It means with a win the Habs can catch the Rangers sitting in 6th place, and come within two points of [...]

Shameless Ploy For Votes

I guess I’ll be shameless and pitiful.  This Habs blog vote which is now going on and which I’ve found myself in the final three, ends on Sunday. So I need votes because although it doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things and is silly in many ways because there’s a lot of great [...]

A Night At The Morgue. Habs Making Habs-Haters Happy

No need to say much about the Thursday night coma-inducing performance by a team now mired in a five-game losing streak and managing once again to score one feeble goal and providing the Bell Centre faithful with absolutely nothing to be happy about except maybe the beer was cold.

Who Is It In Town Thursday Night?
