BTW, I would've been an awesome coach.

LG: Hello gentlemen I’m your new coach. And I just want (ahem) Mr. Desharnais?
DD: Yes Mr. LG?
LG: Put the coffee down.
DD: What?
LG: Put the coffee down!
DD: What do you mean?
LG: Coffee is for closers… Now let’s get to work.
DD: (Sits down dejectedly with empty cup, Max pours warm milk inside and they quietly hold hands together)

LG: Before we begin are there any questions?
Bork: (Raises hand)
LG: Yes Mr. Bork?
Bork: Have you ever coached before?
LG: That’s a stupid question.
Bork: What?
LG: It’s a stupid question, now let’s move on.
Bork: Uh, there’s no such thing as a stupid question.
LG: Yes there is. And that was one of them.
Bork: Uh, no there isn’t.
LG: Okay, what colour is seven?
Bork: Uh… what?
LG: Good, now let’s move on.
Bork: (Sits down in a daze while counting his fingers and watching while DD and Max frolic in the corner.)

LG: Today we’re all going to practice the triple low five…
PK: Woohoo!

The MB/MT union has done one thing extremely well.
They have completely transformed the expectations of an Organization and a City.
MB has remained steady on his course and changed the perception of what is acceptable.
Nothing less than the top.

Together the have planted the seeds of belief.
That is what is driving this team currently.
That is the one thing Therrien has done well.
Sooner or later the next step has to be taken.
Having a game plan in place and the talent to complete the vision.
Will MT be involved? Not sure but MB will.

Let me ask you. Do you come on HF while on coffee breaks from your job as a poet and forget we use prose here, not verse?

Just kidding you. Your posts look like verses.

Man, you've got talent.

Hey Uncle LG, now tell me the story of what your wife said when you told her you're leaving your job to coach a hockey team! This could become a series...


She didn't say anything cause he asked her the colour of five and that flat out shut her up.

actually, it's obvious to most that color of 5 is blue just like color of 7 is green.

although for some it's purple and yellow.
and te remaining ones, black and brown.

gionta wasn't signed to bring them out of the black hole that is that team. we all know his offense significantly declined after his two torn biceps - on top of his age. so i don't get the need to finger point at a guy who laid everything on the line for his team. it's ******

and besides, if anything, that -5 in 7 isn't bad considering who he's playing for

Basically, he's a player-coach at this point, but 4M$/year is a lot for a guy who won't provide a lot of offense. Buffalo has a bright future ahead though, so I kind of understand the move, and anyway cap floors are the cause of so many bad contracts...

Gionta's got 13 shots in 7 games. All those goalie jersey crests desecrated.


I kid Gio. I legitimately liked him. Don't miss him, but liked him. Was a good captain, too.

Ill ask a very mean question:

Would you rather have Gionta @ 4M, or Pouliot @ 4M? :naughty:

What about the ones who think it's magenta & cyan? Don't tell me you're a colour bigot?

Yeah, I have that when it comes to music. I see colours when I hear music. I also see red when I see Patches play hockey but that's another story.

I see stars when i watch Subban play, so i think you aren't that bad

I studied Nostra Damus this way if even 1 line comes even remotely close to the truth...
I can say told you so. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

The hate Habs fans have for Gionta is beyond me.

Its not really hate..

More like disgust, with a hefty side of frustration with his offensive uselessness.

He was okay for us in his first years. But his last 2? Abysmal
