Not easy being a Hab fan these days ...

​

How did the guy who was in the coma, end up there? Why, this ...

​

Small wonder, lots of symptoms, no cure ...

​

Even modern medicine has had to come to terms with this ...

​

Which has led to an even greater divide within the Habs community ...

Scherbak - Carr - Gallagher

[Fazkovsky]

Sergachev has really cooled down but had 2assists yesterday

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Kucherov has more than twice as many points as Montreal's leading scorer.

Kucherov: 87 pts.
Gallagher: 41 pts.

Kucherov & Stamkos have more points than Montreal's top 4 scorers.

Kucherov & Stamkos: 165 pts
Top 4 pts leaders: 150 pts.

We are a pathetic offensive team & a poor defensive one, which explains our terrible season.

 

[ArtPeur]

I'm not watching Habs games now that the Impact season has begun. Both teams have their games at the same time today so...

Allez Montréal Allez.

Same

 

[TRG]

Allez Montréal Allez.

Well the Habs are Montreal too

 

[justafan22]

Remember when the habs and lightning played in back to back seasons in the playoffs? That was fun

 

[PaulD]

Sergachev has really cooled down but had 2assists yesterday

He sure has. So much so he is tied with Johnny Drouin in scoring.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

I'll cheer for the Bolts. I like to see happy faces of winners. They deserve to win because they are built the good way. Strength down the middle, like every winning Stanley Cup Team. Montreal have been st*pid ignoring dominant centers in their draft since last 30 years or so, they've been lucky to get some by trades (B. Smith, Turgeon, Damphousse), they only had Koivu who would have been a good #2 center on a contender team. They never wanted to trade Koivu or Plekanec when they were still good to get a good pick who could turn into a dominant center, etc. Always buying time with patches here and there, like Montréal's streets, temporary solutions that never last. For all these reasons I want other teams to win because they deserve it, they are intelligent and they understand what is hockey.

 

[LaP]

Don't think the bolt will care much about this game. But it's in Florida so the guys will probably spend more time at the beach than training so we might actually still lose it.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

He sure has. So much so he is tied with Johnny Drouin in scoring.

When you don't draft a center by yourself, you get what you can by trades and it looks like Drouin. Not a center, not a character guy. But it could be worse than Drouin, remember Scott Gomez ... that was Gainey.

The more they relax on the beach, the closer we get to Dahlin.

 

[LaP]

Sergachev has really cooled down but had 2assists yesterday

Of course he has. How many under 20 dmen got 40+ points in the last 20 years?

 

[Tuggy]

Could see another 5 spot today.

 

[roy munson]

Great job on the GDTs Runner, one of the rare bright spots on game days. That and T-Shirt Guy.

Go Habs Go! ...nah, just kidding.

 

[Electricity]

​

Tampa Bay still has a team?!

Allez Montréal Allez.

The Impact are looking to have a tough season, but I want to give Garde the benefit of the doubt and see what he can do the change things around.

The Habs will be mired in redundancy until someone has the balls to stand up and say what a good number of fans are thinking.

 

[Seb]

Wasn't Niemi injured?!

​

Switch Carr and Galchenyuk and those are the top 2 lines I want to see

Carr Drouin Lehkonen
Scherbak Galchenyuk Gallagher

But Julien will mix the offensive players with the defensive players and we'll score 1 or no goals and give up 4 or 5.

 

[ArtPeur]

Well the Habs are Montreal too

Yeah but you know the chant (as long as we forget the Loco Locass one)

Problem with the Impact is the same with the Habs: poor management. I don't know how much power Garde has because NDS still has a lot. We are seeing a lot more of French players though (or linked to French players)

 

[Tyson]

It’s going to be 90 here in central Texas today. Time for a motorcycle ride through the Hill country. I hope Bergevin’s team loses 7-0 today.

Dont remind me.
But Gomez is ahead of Drouin .....(for now) in that he had one good year.

 

[PhysicX]

I'm going to watch.... Sucker for pain.

I know

 

[Beendair Donedat]

I figure this will be a bad bad beating. And I'm excited to watch it... Not just to not advance in the standings, but in the hopes that Geoff Molson will eventually see how completely awful this team that Bargain Bin has assembled has become. I do hope that we see Lernout play well and physically abuse some Bolts players. At least if we are going to lose, I hope we lose with some toughness instead of being the weak sisters of the league that we've been for over a decade.
