The legends of this franchise are rolling in their graves. This collection of misfits makes me sick, thanks Marc and Geoff. I hope the arena is empty.

Sportsnet has an article this morning, on the Habs empty seats, and so called sellout streak...................supply vs demand may just get MB fired if this continues...the bottom line is, why would fans spend money on this team??

Nostalgia maybe. Also,How many of the seats are corporately paid for?

I won't root for the Habs to lose. I get the long-term benefits, but I don't watch games for long-term benefits. I watch for two-hours of enjoyment and the hope that we win. Yes, this season there's a greater gain in finishing bottom-10 and getting a better pick. That'll be great in June. For now, I have no interest in cheering for June -- that's like spending my night reading a stock prospectus. Yay long-term investment! There's no joy in watching my team become a devalued stock.

Ideally, the Habs would win all their games and end up bottom-5. A good GM should know how to do this! Go Habs Go.

Beaulieu minutes in Buffalo keep declining. Things that you go Hmmmm.
Yeah I think management read him right. We all hoped he would pan out but he didn’t. Morrow is better at this point (not saying much).

I hear you.

Beaulieu and his routine gaffs more than likely.

But on this team he could generate some offense and he is a PMD, of which he have about 0 .

Definitely not top pairing guy, but would we worse off with him paired with Petry than Alzner ?

I have been surprised at the solid D Alzner not being so solid. Maybe not so many big gaffs but so slow to pucks etc.

Ideally, I'd rather they win all their games and end up in the finals, something like the Preds last year.

Team announced yesterday Price would be back after 3 weeks off.......

Against the lowly Buffalo Sabres who cant score goals to save their lives.

Who as of yesterday lost 7 games in a row.

On a Saturday night at home after Sabres played last night.

Habs have not played since Wednesday

If you were looking for an easier game scenario in an 82 game schedule......you could not find one.

Don't worry Lshap, I got you covered. I've been told that my negative vibes have the power to make this team lose. So by all means, cheer away!

I fully expect Montreal to completely own and obliterate the Sabres tonight.

Ironically, I wouldn’t be surprised if they lost also...

The D has improved. If Price can get his game back and the top 6 forwards can get it going...

How long is Lehkonen out?? He is sorely missed

Hey dont you listen to them. Its the negativity MB carries into the operation that turned them into the new Maple Leafs. Nothing to do with you. ;)
