But damn, everyone's got injury's. The difference is simply logistics, this is Montreal and things work different here. Time to call on guys like Mike Keane and Craig Ludwig and bless 'em Mike Mcfee. Fast forward to 2010.... Go Habs i have to agree with john to, its gotta be tough.

The injuries have disrupted pretty well everything. I like what I see tonight after the first period in that two guys who need to chip in have, Sergei and Lapierre. We need all these grinders to step it up. The team is better, as we've seen periodically throughout. I have faith in Gainey too. You’re right, John.

Now it's not entirely fair to do this but if you took the guys from last year who were not brought back and looked at their stats they haven't done much that would have helped us this year. The new guys have been productive or like Big Tits were getting there and having both scoring lines intact would have helped. Key injuries that disrupt both big lines has to leave a mark. A secondary casualty would be the third and fourth lines which have been in a constant state of flux as they are called upon to fill in on the top 2 lines. Those guys also benefit from playing with the same line-mates for more than a shift. This team is better than it shows, at least in personal, take away the injuries to key people and then we would know if it's Martin's system or lack there of. Until then, relax people and focus on the positives however small they may be.

I can't imagine drinking Gomez's bath water. I'm not saying these guys should be playing better, or that Gainey made bad decisions. I'm saying that they haven't made the team better. They're ten points off last year. I understand that many of those guys had to go - Tanguay, Kovalev, Schneider etc.. And the new guys are good. So why is the team not doing as well? Could it be the coach? Thanks, Marc.

I still think he jetisoned tha right people, and brought in (what he and alot of us) thought was some quality players with real caricature. #1 Hall Gill, guess what, he is slow, he's been in the league for quite some time now. Everyone NEW that, get over it. #2 Scott Gomez, BIG contract, anyone who thought he was going to earn that money no matter where he played, is drinking his bath water. #3 Roman Hamrlik, Not paid to be Andre Markov, Just steady and he's been that, for the most part. #4 Spacek, check his stats for the last 5 years, right on pace. If you expected more from him, Stop inhaling. #5 Cammalleri, He's done everything but sew the "C" on his own sweater. Paul Mara's plus minus, well....

Gainey had coached before, and he didn't have another replacement in place yet. So he did it himself. But Sandy, sometimes these things have to happen.

Not saying Guy didn't have to go, but tapping his own back, and putting himself in... unfortunately for your own team he deserves what happened the worst thing was Gainey pulling his coach and placing himself in.
