You mean on the Habs? Because none of those things you listed are directly related to our season.
The ONLY positive is that were still in the playoffs and we all know that won't be the case for long, so it's really looking bleak.

I really like the Pateryn, Tinordi and Beaulieu part. Fingers crossed!
I also like how Gallagher battles every night.
Price is solid despite a ****** team in front of him.
That's about it...

Who took my beer?
i think i started the last positive thread but i swear, this time outside of Price i got nothing 
A positive?
The GM making all the players stay back to face the media after last night's game. This sends a message that some of the players have some growing up to do and that when things get tough you just can't blame the coach and duck the media. Many were on this team when they tuned out Martin, and then continued to dig their heels in against Cunneyworth. Bergevin is known to really promote a "stick together" culture in the room, and he is showing consistency with that right now.
Many players hate their coaches, but at the same time winning teams can set aside their personal gripes in order to achieve the team goal. You think Scotty Bowman was loved by his players? Dick Irvin? Ken Hitchcock? I am not suggesting Therrien merits Jack Adams consideration here, but to abandon the organizational plan so early in its execution will set this team back even further, and deeper into mediocrity. Bergevin needs time to mold this roster, and if Therrien needs to be a hard ass at times to deliver a message, so be it. Hiccups along the way will occur (coaching decisions, bad signings), but every team goes through this. Hitting reset every 2-3 years does not accomplish anything however.
