Even though some feel this is no longer a rivalry, it is to me. As long as I’m on this earth. It’s personal.
f*** the Habs!

It’s absolutely absurd that we’re more than half way through the season and only now playing Montreal for the first time.
There are too many teams and with the balancing of the schedule, the rivalries have really suffered.
It’s too bad, but it feels like part of the overall sterilization of the league.
And for what it’s worth, the league is more enjoyable when Montreal is good.

Who MTL going to honor before the game this time?
At the same time.... I presume those games might be your favorite!!!! Hate and love are oftenly two faces of the same coin! BUT not always...
It is IMO dumb! Probably one of the most natural NHL rivalry...

It's weird, your typical teenager doesn't know this rivalry. Montreal has been too bad for too long. I think in your 20's+ you know it.
For me now the order for who gets my goat up and I'm excited for the drama:
1) Toronto
2) Tampa
3) Washington
4) Montreal is somewhere down here, for now, with a few other teams (Carolina quickly making a case for the list)

So Monty knows if you have a save % of 92.0 for a career you are likely going to HOF
And if you have control of puck in O zone and take a shot from an angle that has a 92.0- 99.9 % you are pretty much handing over puck to opponent
So try and hold an extra second and make a play
That second period shift by the Coyle line after Megna bonehead icing was 1 minute of dominating Harlem Globetrotting by the third line with a handful of looks that ended with a BS hand pass on Clifton
Gotta have the players who are either skilled or puck possession and they do
THIS will be the new rage / puck dump and chase is dying
Teams are realizing the Bruins don’t care about shot quantity but quality

This hurts and f*** the Habs!
For me there's a respect thing that comes with the Habitants versus say a team like the Maple Leafs. Hoping to see another Habitants/Bruin rivalry in the coming years.

Easier from up here
I get your point but will wait until defense tightens up in the playoffs. Too many previous playoffs people complained they got too fancy and forced low percentage "extra" passes when a shot was there. Will be interesting to see if its different with this group.
I have mixed feelings on Montreal. On one hand I'm kinda miffed that they suck now, on the other hand I don't miss the time the B's would outshoot the Habs something ridiculous to none and then lose the game anyway.
IMO this has been a major issue on the PP all season long- too much passing and not enough shooting. The absolutely perfect shot opportunity does not exist yet they keep wasting time looking for it.
No if ands or buts, I hate this team more than any another. Its not even close.
Beat these scumbags down.

I don't give a damn that it's been a long time since Montreal has truly been a force in the NHL. The Hated Habs will always be #1 on my shit list, everyone else in the NHL is playing for second place.

f*** the Habs!!!!

Good for him. He looked decent last season. Hopefully he gets in some games.

Agreed...was disappointing to see him sent down after a fantastic pre-season and showing last season.
Yep. Although I will say I actually like a few of their posters.
I totally agree...as long as they are NOT quite as good as the Bs

For the sake of Greers soul, I don’t. Wifi would eat him alive.

I've had this game circled for a while. I can't believe it's January and we haven't played the Habs yet.

Here is his chance to force his way into the line-up. Bruins are looking for that 4RW upgrade, here is your chance McMuffin

Definitely. It’s the best rivalry to me. I hope Bedard ends up there and not Arizona or Anaheim.
