  1. Its impossible to beat a Bishop without a great Knight. Assume we are black and they are white. PFK must penatrate Bishop with his shot, and I hope with hurting any futuure children.

      Those dumb fucks wouldn't know what a good hockey team looks like, all they see are blue and white turds. They'll never acknowledge Montreal as a top team. Never. Even if they won the Cup this year the mediots would still say Chicago or Anaheim are better and the only reason for a Montreal win would be "luck" or Price. Book it.

    1. Congratulations to our Jr. Team Canada for an excellent tourney and gold medal.
    2. Habs play today, to maintain first place, at home.
    3. The leaf keeps finding ways to collapse. I'm 53 and have loved the last 47 years.

      "Jacobs, who is taking over for his father Jeremy, said the team was in a "constant state of evaluation" and refused to guarantee the future of any organization member, including head coach Claude Julien."

      Does schadenfreude make me a bad person? I hope I didn't jinx anything - please forgive me.


      ..... - for us to be a team that's out of the playoffs is absolutely unacceptable.

  11. No coach is going to change facts on the bench for the leaf. They have enough bad contracts to make Donald Trump kill the squirl he gets his hair from. For the next 3 years at least they are stuck in hockey stuck groundhog day. Whats even better is both the Phuctards and the Broon are working from the same script. Thank you Tyler Sequin for fucking up both the Broon and the Leaf with you full sleves.

  15. Here's something from the beginning of the season:

    "Spott said Carlyle's attitude was that we're fired before (Kessel is) out of here, the hierarchy doesn't want to deal with Phil," one of the attendees told The Star. "He scores 30 (goals) a year and that's all they want. (Spott said) Phil hates coaches. He hates Randy. He hates me and I don't even know him yet." I'm sure the feeling is mutual, get over yourself, doughnut boy.

    That's right folks, cakeS got 7 minutes less than DDD. Hell, Weiss got 4 more minutes than him. Have we also accepted that DDD wasn't taken off the 1st line, MT just made another 1st line?

    DDD also led the forwards at 3:19 for PP time, about a minute more than KidG and gCHuck. cakeS had 0:15 on the PP (the same as Prust).

    I think DDD has a role on this team, and I think he's proven that he can excel in that role. But MT refuses to use him in that role. MB needs to hold an intervention. Bring in some addiction experts. It's getting out of hand.

  80. Here's a skill testing question/riddle to pass some time.

    Being the new year and all, I've resolved to try to get (re)fit. So I grabbed my combination lock which I haven't used in about 4 years. I've had this lock about 10 years. At the time, to help remember the combination, I wrote a fictional name on the back of the lock. 2 surnames, but one of the surnames could also be a first name. The combination of my lock is 7-32-1. What is the name on the back of my lock?

      Meanwhile after a blazing start to the schedule, the games are few and far between for our Habbies. Currently 2/10 nights, then 4/7, then a week off.
