In nets? This guy.

WITH GRAY HAIR!!! I feel so old.

Also, Galchenyuk was there and feels his hand is stronger but doesn't know yet how ready he is for actual gameplay, Bournival is still going through the safety deal for the concussion and wasn't there, Moen is almost ready to comeback and Drewiske wasn't around, he's on leave for family reasons.

Brisebois was there too, and if we had a situation where we were in a dire need of a defenseman like, we'd be going into a game with only 15-16 skaters or something and had no options in Hamilton, I would totally sign Breezer to a PTO and put him in there for one game while we bring Nygren in from Sweden or something. He's not aging.

He could show them how to be soft like he was.

Hey, that's Jaro Halak Sr!

The strength and conditioning coach Allard also played D in this practice

 

[Alexdaman]

What's a realistic price tag of Brisebois's hair?

10 000$?

25 000$?

OK, I have to add my 2 cents here. I started watching the Habs at the very end of Tremblay's tenure as coach. Jocelyn Thibault was the first hockey player I idolized, and he's still my favorite goalie of all-time.

I swear this man was placed in the toughest shoes of all-time when it comes to trades. Think about it. Also think about the defense he had in front of him while he was a Hab. Then look at his numbers... he was a good goalie. A kid playing for his childhood team, but also replacing Patrick Roy. Impossible. I will say he never seemed to get it together for the playoffs, but that could have changed. I also really liked the Thibault/Moog combo in 1998.

I will always be bothered by the bad things most Habs fans have to say about him. He seems like a humble, good guy that had to deal with some nonsense while donning the CH. He was definitely a talented net-minder, and he's still one of my hockey idols!

I didn't watch hockey from 1993-94 till about 2001 so it's always weird to me that Moog was a Hab along with Linden and Recchi.

Hey, that's Jaro Halak Sr!

try Jocelyn Thibault

The thing that stuck with me about thibault was his paddle down stance when the puck would go behind the net. Its not something I've seen before or since.

He was a decent prospect, that was lauded for his maturity. He made the nords squad well before he ever hit the age of 20. However, looking back, you wonder how much the Roy factor may have impacted his career. I mean, he's a Quebec guy, so he knows exactly what Roy meant to that franchise.
