To paraphrase Prime Minister Trudeau and President Obama, Canada is our pluralistic, tolerant and equal home. On the best day to be a Canadian, may all my compatriots here and abroad share some of that wonderful Canadian spirit with everyone. Happy Canada Day! Joyeuese Journée du Canada! Peace.
~~~ Great speech, about us, in the world, from our neighbour.
Awesome vid! I hope Shea (and PatCHes, and TFS, and Vodkov, and PleXXX, and whoever in the room who pushed PK out of town) picks up the torch from PK - especially on those Sunday visits.
If ol' BBB signs Lucic, I hope he brings Weise back too! Seriously, I like the edge Lucic plays with even if he's a total arse...except for the ball hooks. SiM you mentioned above you'd rather have ratface Marchand. I live in Halifax and can tell you there is no bigger douchebag in the country off the ice. The guy is a total fucking ass, driving his Lamborghini around the city always with a couple of big guys (bodyguards? buttbuddys?) at the bars. A co-worker met him at a bar and offered to shake his hand and when he told ratface 'No' to the question of whether he was a Bruin's fan, Marchand told him to eff off and walked away. I digress.
Happy Canada Day! Busy working in the yard (still) but will break for a few brewskis and to find out what amazing 4th liners BBB is able to snag.
Also, happy Canada Day! From having the good fortune to be able to travel and live all over the world, I know just how good we've got it here. I sing O Canada every time I drink clean water from the kitchen tap. Hopefully I end up at the Legion today, it's right across the vacant lot from where I'm currently staying. Apparently they have karaoke and hot dogs.
Happy SF Canada Day Everyone. The first one is a long time where I can be totaly proud to be a Canadian. JT is our beloved Capitian, making Canada a lifeboat for the present, and a speedboat into the future.
Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun 47s48 seconds ago No confirmation yet out of Montreal but I hear that the Red Wings offered Radulov a one-year deal worth $5 million...
Marinaro read a tweet saying BBB was an idiot and he went off on another anti-PK rant saying when BBB had the end of season exit interviews and spoke to Patches, KidA, TfS and asked them about the problem with PK and how to solve it then he had get rid of him. So, either he spoke to each of the guys he mentioned and they told him that or BBB was his 'source'. Also how wrong it was of him to be out late when he had a neck injury. But I guess it's viewed more favourably by BBB when the cops are called when GalCHenyuk has a fight with his stripper house guest.
Per LeBrun BBB tried hard for Lucic but they likely can't out-match Edmonton. Marinaro says he's 'connected' on Lucic and says he's asking 6YRS @ $42M.
They say teams try to copy Cup winners, someone should tell BBB the Bruins didn't just win the Cup, the Pens did. Habs were known to be a speedy team but now he's trying to turn them into slow-moving plugs.
Marinaro is trying desperately to get into the good graces of MB and the Habs organization. Seriously, guys with actual history and access to the club are in disbelief, but we're supposed to trust a scrub who can't even get press access half the time?
But let's pretend this nonsense is true. So all those guys, including the soft boy captain, blame PK's off ice antics for being so terrible last year. To me, that indicates a much larger problem on this team than anything PK could have possibly done.
And what do we think four years of the coach berating, scapegoating and insulting PK has done to the psyche of those guys? It's a team of soft losers, and it stems from the coach (and apparently GM and owner, too).
Interesting that it has been reported rumoured that both PFK and Squid left the team thinking there was a losing attitude. There are enough facts out there to indicate PFK was the odd man out in the dressing room. The biggest was the charity vote. You make the biggest donation in the history of Canada and lose the vote, ouch ouch.
"There are enough facts out there to indicate PFK was the odd man out in the dressing room. " -what facts would those be? the ones that all began in the SFU and PKStock and a torch carried by Marinaro? Or how about that washed up guy on AC who used to trash him at every opportunity, you know, the same guy who made him sit for 6 games after he was signed to a bridge deal so he could 'learn the system'? That guy? The SFU who are hate the Habs and the fact that a handful of Francophone media dictate what BBB does is pretty telling of those 'facts'.
"The biggest was the charity vote." -Who tallied those votes? I'll bet you it was MB and BBB.
Just saw a gif of Radulov hitting his coach with his stick (y'know, "character"). If he does that to MT, I'll empty my bank account to keep him in Montreal.
Radchov close to signing, he still has three binders of strippers to look through, and has to decide how much time and money he can donate to the local strip clubs.
juce11:26 AM BBB must be thanking his lucky stars.
#canadiens Carey Price was in MTL for a few days. Worked with Stéphane Waite and he's knee is now 100%. That's big for the team. #tvasports
I'll believe it when I see it. Didn't they tell us every other day last season that Price was almost ready to come back? I think we should learn to trust nothing that comes out of this organization now.
So an aging Russian hothead (possibly). I don't really care, he'll play on the 4th line, benched by game 12 and sent out by February. I guess I should feel relieved that MB hasn't further destroyed this team for years to come with another terrible deal. But I guess there's still time to give Weiss a 7 year contract...
Ol' BBB will be scraping the bottom of the bin now that everybody knows what we've known all along, he is a 2 faced weasel with no concept of honour or respect. And everybody knows that those ideologies are contagious and when you're in tight quarters in the foxhole, it spreads quickly among the so called leaders of this organization.
Check out this FBT highlight reel. Look at the eyes a cross between Darcy Tucker and Rocket Richard https://youtu.be/tJfeqTfTEXk I am pumped. Of course he will have to watch 6 games to learn the system, and then learn we do not use skill,
I'm cool with both. If CHé has matured, he might be a steal for this season and set himself up for a better future. Not 100% sure we really need MontoYa but a cheap insurance policy.
TSN laughed when they announced the CHé signing. I give Herb (Tarlick) full credit here. There is not a GM with the cap space that would not love that deal. He will be wanting 7 next year.
I think Che will be the real deal. I think BBB has told eMTy do not fuck with this guy, or you will be throwing players under the bus on the antichamber.
Is it a coincidence that the two guys the antichamber talking heads hated and blamed everything on, Lego and PFK, are gone? I think not. Bargain Bergy has scraped out every dumpster in the NHL and had to go to Russia to find new trash. Nobody wants to play for the lizard behind the bench. I'll bet Pretzel was laughing when BBB called his agent. Montreal? FUCK NO!!
That is exactly why they're gone. How is it possible that a miserable, arrogant, incompetent asshat like MT manages to drive one of the best thins to happen to the Habs since Chelios?
Un-fucking-believable. There must be some new Quebec version of Ripley's Believe or Not.
juce, there's nothing we can do. Let's hope for the best as our team moves forward. We all wish PFK the best and hope he lights the league on fire with his charisma and play. We all know that MT2 will be gone some day. The sooner the better but until then and because today is Canada Day, please give us one of your famous Go Habs Go comments !
Sorry moeman, I know MT will one day be gone, but it's already too late, the damage is done. There simply isn't a cheer to be had in broken heart of mine and I worry how long it will take to get it back all because of the morons behind the bench and I know that every time I look and see him there I will be full of nothing but hate.
I'll be CHeering the players we have on the ice, even DDD. They are the Habs. DGMB and MT2 have proven that they for now, in their positions, have total control. Not much we can do. Like you, my distaste for MT2 makes me sick but the only way he gets booted is future failure. We can hope to see Captain Kirk leading the CHarge some day. Until then we can despise the prick behind the benCH but I'd rather concentrate on the great people/players we have in the KidAs, TFS', VodKov's, Weber's, gCHuk's et al. I'll even give a matured CHé the benefit of doubt because he wants to be here and has some slick skill.
...sometimes players told me flat out they will not play in Montreal" BBB
https://twitter.com/ArponBasu
You're a lying, slithering snake back stabber who can't be trusted even when you sign your name on the dotted and the hockey world and their agents has now come to learn this. You now have to rely on your friend Pat Brisson, I'm sure there's room for him in the foxhole.
moe is right we do have to move on. But man, there is a bitter taste in my mouth right now. At this moment, I don't have a cheer left in me either, hopefully by October I'll start to come around. I just hope the camera doesn't pan to the Habs bench too often so I won't have to look at Therrien or Daignault.
Apart from living in the greatest country in the world, other things to CHeer, today;
1. TFS is supposedly/apparently/magnificently 100%. If true, even a stint in the tranna Cup (where leafools will watCH him and BBQ and drool like the fools they are) will get him in game shape. Bonus, TFS™ & Weber (I like the BBQ nic BTW) will be there to lead our country and they are good BC Buds according to Mme. TFS. (Sidenote; a Stanley Cup with TFS™, KidA and BBQ and we may have to have FHFun with The Montreal Canucks!)
2. KidA will be back to 111% (see what I did there?) and now has a twin in A. Shaw.
3. The new kid in town CHevy is signed and will be mentored by Weber. jjdaigneault will have zero effect on these two players. N8 may be jealous but then again may learn a thing or two as BBQ's D pair.
4. CHé on the wing and on the PP. Worse case he spends some hard-earned $3M bonus cash at CHé(z) Parée or loses it completely and smacks MT2's smirk clean off. CHampagne is on the house!
5. PatCHes had an extremely tough first year as Captain. Its his team now.
6. gCHuk.
7. Habs have the Top Bottom 6. NTTIAWWT!
8. Captain Kirk is more than just great looking. (I did that for Moey, aka the angel Kate, who has promised to be back, big time). ♥
9. leaf suck and fuck the Habs-hating SFU.
10. 2000000 page views baby! Let's do it, together! With or without Pants!
Despite losing two of my fav players and keeping wee Davy, we do have a better team than last year. If one of our Euro Smurfs can be a second line player and N8 can stay out of the bars, we may win this year.
Canada Day has ended invention for me over here so this will be my semi sober last word on what has gone on in the last few days. Let's start with Lego. Fuckface hard him and he was never ver going to work for the Habs so the fact that he is gone probably makes sense. Good luck to him and I wish him well. Shaw sounds like a bit of a douche but he's our douche now so we should embrace the douche and see what happens. PFK is another story. BBB showed us all his true colours when he repeated the Season ending circle jerk press conference in announcing the trade and reasons behind it. He lied to very single Habs fan. He lied straight to our faces! And he didn't make the Habs any better. He made them older, slower and a fucking shitload less interesting. He voted of the best player on the team for a name who was past his prime but because he has history as an all star he thought he could sell it. He can't sell it. He lied to our faces! Let that sink in over the weekend. Today, we got a crapshoot goal scorer who might work out...but could cramp out ...another goalie and a defence man. Then we learn that some layers tell BBB to his face that they won't come to Montreal. I can't blame those guys. Who would willingly choose to play for MT. Who would willingly sign a deal with a man who has continually lied to the faces of the people who care and support the team. But I guess it is what it is. PFK is gone and no amount of whining will,bring him back. BBQ should be a decent replacement so I will role with that. What I will not ever accept is being lied to. Marc Bergevin is a disgusting horrible person. The worst kind of person out there. He pretends and then lies. In my book he has zero cred. But he has dug his own grave and I am praying that he is dead and buried before too long. This is on him and if the Habs crash out again, he will be gone. No place to hide you scum. And when that day comes I won't celebrate. It will mean that the Habs are not playing well and I never want that. But I will exhale because It will mean that this shit is finally over.
So go Habs go. Go you fucking Habs go! Just fucking win! Great SF btw Moeman. Where you find the motivation I will never know but God bless you! Nice ones all round!
BBQ is a better player than PFK at this moment on a team playing for eMTy. It will be very interesting to watch both Lego and PFK free soar and make eMTY the man with no clothes that he is. However I think we have a better shot at winning the cup in our two year window with BBQ than PFK. Lego was an interchangable piece. The only decent winger he ever had was big TiTS and when the brief moments of EGG line. So it made no sense to keep him, not a thrid line of Lego and a Euro smurf and Cable (Shaw is a big cable company) would be deadly, now we will see wee davy try and keep up and scrapping the ice when he should be playing hockey.
Thunder and storms here so, unlike the song of the day, no fireworks here.
Righteous rant K3X. All solid and heartfelt. Like you said, time to exhale.
My motivation is having FHFun with my FHFriends who love the Habs as much if not more than me. The original Four Habs Fans set the table for us and I enjoy keeping it well placed, wined and fed.
What a beautiful day here in Saint John, sunny, warm but with a nice breeze off the water. Spent the day with Mrs. M., we went down to the waterfront where there were live bands all day. Had a nice brunch at a newly opened Irish pub, the Cask and Kettle. Wandered around uptown for a bit, had a beer at Churchill's Pub then took a break and went home. Came back in to the waterfront and caught the last act, Royal Wood, who is a fantastic musician, kind of reminds me of Jim Cuddy. WatCHed the fireworks and came home. A great Canada Day, we are so lucky to live in this great country.
Regarding our beloved Habs, let's hope that Price, Weber and kidG can provide the leadership necessary to lead this team to respectability despite the incompetence of the coach and GM.
I just watched the new Indpendence Day, IMHO better than the orginal. The Habs are like the movie, a stragagy based upon trading away the best skater and a Russian addicted to strippers.
Thanks moeman, still pondering. HA, saying I would pass it on to Wilde came off sounding like I knew him or something - I must be more 'connected' than I realised.
DD is like that lamp that never gets sold in a yard sale, no matter how often you try. At some point you have to leave him at the curb marked ‘Free’ and see if he gets picked up.
"«C’est sûr qu’il ne peut pas plaire à tout le monde. Mais ceux qui l’aiment, ils l’aiment vraiment», a-t-elle expliqué en citant son expérience avec l’arrière de 27 ans, notamment lorsque son époux, une légende du Tricolore, s’est éteint en 2014. «Oh, mon Dieu qu’il a été fin pour moi! Il ne le réalise même pas!», a avoué Mme Béliveau. «Jean l’aimait, lui aussi. Lorsqu’il était encore jeune et qu’il a commencé, il me disait: "regarde-le, lui"! Il sera tout un joueur de hockey plus tard.»
Oh the fucking irony, hypocracy and I wish I had a good French or Russian word to finish. PFK traded for CHaracter issues. CHé has seen more strippers than ice time in his carreer. PFK goal celebrations where a no no, Just wait for it from CHé.
Must see PFK BBQ. proving it does not matter is the cat is black or white, in hockey you only need to figure out what is the mouse? https://twitter.com/chris_logiq/status/749283000198766592
If Aron Ecbland and Noah Hannifin can play as 18 yr old D man, CHevy should start the season with BBQ. Of course AF has never met a player over 5.7 or under 30 that he liked.
Come to think about it, BBQ shot is so hard if i were a forward on his team i would seriously consider wearing a grill. Mexicant Karma. we went from weakest shot in the NHL to hardest.
Marinaro trashing PK again, he is a sinner because he was spinning records in a club while he was out with injury and his team lost to Ottawa and Detroit. 'as an assistant captain is that really something you should be out doing?" and Galchenyuk only spoke well about PK because they used to go out together, he said that if PK wasn't traded 'I hope you're listening, Alex because if he wasn't gone you were the one who was going'. Patches wouldn't be in a club he says. Well Tonly, he has a wife and kid PK doesn't and PK isn't obligated to go home to his empty condo and live like a monk.
Was he getting drunk or taking drugs or something? Big deal, Go fuck yourself.

I was not going to talk about PK anymore but it is interesting to consider all the cloak and dagger stuff that was going on late in the season. Remember, PK was only supposed to be out for a week or so with that neck injury but it ended up being the rest of the year. I'll bet PK was shut down to prevent any big injuries from occurring because Bergevin had made his mind up he was going to trade him. Some phone calls led to Nashville who were probably regretting matching Philthy's offer sheet for Weber and knew they had to cough up $8mil on July 1. Sure, PK is a little higher per season but has shorter term and now does not have trade protection. Montreal can easily afford Shea until he retires and Nashville takes the cap hit for the rest of the contract but is not out any cash. I would bet this has been under way for some time with huge money implications being the main driving factor, plus he had to get back another D for PK.
Anyway, the first time these teams meet, I hope Nashville wins it on a PK goal so he can skate past Montreal's bench and glare (grin) at Fuckface. After that I don't care if they ever win again.
I hope everyone had a nice Canada Day long weekend. I just had to get some medical tests done (no worries, just for a new overseas visa) and since I no longer have my health card I had to pay out of pocket. I suggest everyone give their health card a long, passionate wet kiss for me. Goddammit.
I'm over the shock of the PK trade. It's not so much the trade itself, or rather the players involved, but what it says about the people running this organization. I'm not sure I want to be a fan of that anymore. When people say you have to be completely loyal to a team in order to be a 'real fan' I groan. I can't really support the mentality that ran PK out of town. I'm also very disappointed in how easily many fellow fans and the media have fallen in line. I think we can all understand the underlying 'issue' the organization (and some fans and media) had with PK, and I'm just not comfortable aligning myself with that sort of thing. I'll tune in here and there this season, mostly just to see Price playing again and how gCHuck and KidG are doing, and maybe how Che is doing (until MT benches him and gets MB to trade him by February). I still support a lot of the guys on the team, but like I said I'm not quite comfortable supporting the organization as a whole right now.
Besides, now with PK and Lego gone, who will RDS/MT/MB scapegoat next? We all know it'll be gCHuck. What's the over/under on DD getting back to 1C? I've got Che going in the doghouse by game 12 and DD back to 1C by game 15. But that's not to say I'd be shocked to see him there game 1. As arrogant and pigheaded MT was before, now we know he's the one in charge and can never do anything to threaten his position. But with Muller in charge of forwards (on paper) there might be some actual push back (until he's chased out of town again).
Anyway, look out for Nashville this year. Talk about a stacked team. Amazing when you have a competent GM and an organization that prioritizes winning and entertainment over politics and 'repek'.
yeah gCHuck will be back on little davyies wing by game 10. I just wonder what eMTy brings to the talble, he does not talk to his players, is that not the biggest part of a coaches job? He does not run practices, or PP or anything, so he just shows up in game night and looks constipated and pick line combons out of his mind.
Russian sports writer Slava Malamud said this morning on 690 that in Russia, Radulov & Kovalchuck are the signature starts of the league since Jagr left, and Radulov can do no wrong, he can criticize his coach and teammates on twitter, he won't have that here. He'll come in with a chip on his shoulder .
Article that Canadiens' French broadcaster TVA disrespected Lego and questioned if they would have done that if his name was Laurent Éthier. Folowwing the trade they tweeted «Quelques raisons de ne pas s’ennuyer d’Eller ». Dave Stubs was not pleased either.
Ok, I know I'm late and haven't been around but...OMFG.
I don't like the PFK trade...but I don't dislike Weber either (did we 'name' him?). His contract is huge but there are upsides to it. If he retires early, apparently the cap hit goes to Nashville, which is something, I guess.
Contract too long for Shaw but, whatever, it is what it is. He's probably tradable if it doesn't work out. He's 24, 2 Cups, lots of experience. The downside here is he's not playing with Toews' and Kane's. For the record, he did not play with them all the time, but it helps to get a contract in the end (i.e PA Parenteau / Tavares). I also think he's sort of the new Weise. I liked the real Weise's size better though.
Lego is gone. I'm a bit sad about that. I know not everyone liked him but I did. I think his problem was that he was not accepting his role with the CH. I wish him luck in WSH.
Al Montoya. That was a surprise. I hope we keep Condon as backup (or he could be trade bait). Montoya is depth with experience in case TFS goes down, again (it's starting to be a problem to get injured like that).
Radulov (I call him Ragoût). Meh. I'm ok with that. It's an expensive risk, but only for a year and it's not my money so, I don't really care how much they threw at him for the length of this contract. I just hope he effin scores like a maniac. Maybe we'll see a Russian Connection happen.
I liked Lego too, I think the coach killed his confidence by bouncing him around while giving DDD every opportunity to succeed to the detriment of Lego.
Yeah, I think you're right. He could've been a second line center. Big body, decent amount of skills. He should've been put in that chair long ago so he could get the 'training' required to be a 2nd line center. On the flip side though, PleXXX is still a good second line center and we couldn't get rid of him at that time. Here's hoping DDD gets third line minutes this time around. Is he on his last year of contract?
I wonder if Lucas Lessio will be re-signed. I liked his game. But i know there are no shortage of depth players fighting for a spot on this team already. Though i like PleXXXe, sure wouldn't mind a bone fide 2nd line centre.
Hey the M - I was out golfing yesterday and shot an honest 103. Still trying to break 100 and the 3 putting killed me yesterday (usually one of the better parts of my game). My buddy was keeping score and always knocks a few strokes off his score...the amount of balls he lost (at least 8, probably 10 or 11) and still shot a 97 with no pars. But I only play against myself so i just let him believe he gets the best of me. I'm getting closer to my goal - my short game 100 yards and in is vastly improved. Was a beauty of a day for a round even with a severe hangover. Actually i play better hungover because i'm forced to focus a lot more on my game just to survive the day.
The short game is where you make up your strokes. I shot 85 on Sunday and 91 today and the difference was 6 missed putts. Plus, it helps to keep your ball on the fairway or at least in play without penalty strokes out of hazards.
Hey, I see GMGQ signed another one of his 5th line stiffs today.
MB drafted Danault so he must be worth a 2 year extension.
If they sign anybody from the rookie camp (or whatever it is that's going on now), it best be the McCool kid. We wouldn't need to dream up a nic for him.
If you have ever played RISK or Civilization you will recognize the dilima PFK presented. Change the system to fit him or throw him overboard. We chose the latter. Upon reflection I am going to say he was not that good. There are no more booby Orrs the system can Kessel track a guy like PFK to death.\ Is AF still AF sure but PFK should have smelled those farts and said smells like a rose,
Yesterday was my "practice" round, today I'm breaking 90, kicking ass and taking names...
Apparently the Habs only have about 250g's left in cap space but need to ditch 3 players to get down to the 23 man roster. I think DD should take a bullet for the team.
If AF can make CHey, MCD, and Hudon better teamates we will win the cup next year. http://lastwordonsports.com/2016/07/06/habs-development-camp-summary-tuesday-july-5th/ Scherbak look like a bust.

ReplyDeleteRadulove apparently has serious attitude problems and even attacked a past coach with a stick. But it was PK who lacked "character".
ReplyDeleteAttacking eMTy with a stick is worth a huge signing bonus
DeleteI didn't think of it that way. Upon reconsideration, I like this signing!
DeletePierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun 47s48 seconds ago
DeleteNo confirmation yet out of Montreal but I hear that the Red Wings offered Radulov a one-year deal worth $5 million...
Marinaro read a tweet saying BBB was an idiot and he went off on another anti-PK rant saying when BBB had the end of season exit interviews and spoke to Patches, KidA, TfS and asked them about the problem with PK and how to solve it then he had get rid of him. So, either he spoke to each of the guys he mentioned and they told him that or BBB was his 'source'. Also how wrong it was of him to be out late when he had a neck injury. But I guess it's viewed more favourably by BBB when the cops are called when GalCHenyuk has a fight with his stripper house guest.
ReplyDeletePer LeBrun BBB tried hard for Lucic but they likely can't out-match Edmonton. Marinaro says he's 'connected' on Lucic and says he's asking 6YRS @ $42M.
They say teams try to copy Cup winners, someone should tell BBB the Bruins didn't just win the Cup, the Pens did. Habs were known to be a speedy team but now he's trying to turn them into slow-moving plugs.
Marinaro is trying desperately to get into the good graces of MB and the Habs organization. Seriously, guys with actual history and access to the club are in disbelief, but we're supposed to trust a scrub who can't even get press access half the time?
DeleteBut let's pretend this nonsense is true. So all those guys, including the soft boy captain, blame PK's off ice antics for being so terrible last year. To me, that indicates a much larger problem on this team than anything PK could have possibly done.
And what do we think four years of the coach berating, scapegoating and insulting PK has done to the psyche of those guys? It's a team of soft losers, and it stems from the coach (and apparently GM and owner, too).
Interesting that it has been reported rumoured that both PFK and Squid left the team thinking there was a losing attitude. There are enough facts out there to indicate PFK was the odd man out in the dressing room. The biggest was the charity vote. You make the biggest donation in the history of Canada and lose the vote, ouch ouch.
Delete"There are enough facts out there to indicate PFK was the odd man out in the dressing room. "
Delete-what facts would those be? the ones that all began in the SFU and PKStock and a torch carried by Marinaro? Or how about that washed up guy on AC who used to trash him at every opportunity, you know, the same guy who made him sit for 6 games after he was signed to a bridge deal so he could 'learn the system'? That guy? The SFU who are hate the Habs and the fact that a handful of Francophone media dictate what BBB does is pretty telling of those 'facts'.
"The biggest was the charity vote."
-Who tallied those votes? I'll bet you it was MB and BBB.
Watch for Wash to sign Big TiTs cause he an Lego togheter were a pair that could beat three of a kind.

So an aging Russian hothead (possibly). I don't really care, he'll play on the 4th line, benched by game 12 and sent out by February.

Apparently Radulov for 5.75/1 year.
ReplyDeleteAnd now apparently Al Mantoya 950k/1 year.
I'm cool with both. If CHé has matured, he might be a steal for this season and set himself up for a better future. Not 100% sure we really need MontoYa but a cheap insurance policy.

Glad for Gilbert to have been picked up by LA.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are cracking me up!!
ReplyDeleteIs it a coincidence that the two guys the antichamber talking heads hated and blamed everything on, Lego and PFK, are gone? I think not. Bargain Bergy has scraped out every dumpster in the NHL and had to go to Russia to find new trash. Nobody wants to play for the lizard behind the bench. I'll bet Pretzel was laughing when BBB called his agent. Montreal? FUCK NO!!
That is exactly why they're gone. How is it possible that a miserable, arrogant, incompetent asshat like MT manages to drive one of the best thins to happen to the Habs since Chelios?
DeleteUn-fucking-believable. There must be some new Quebec version of Ripley's Believe or Not.
juce, there's nothing we can do. Let's hope for the best as our team moves forward. We all wish PFK the best and hope he lights the league on fire with his charisma and play. We all know that MT2 will be gone some day. The sooner the better but until then and because today is Canada Day, please give us one of your famous Go Habs Go comments !
DeleteSorry moeman, I know MT will one day be gone, but it's already too late, the damage is done.
DeleteThere simply isn't a cheer to be had in broken heart of mine and I worry how long it will take to get it back all because of the morons behind the bench and I know that every time I look and see him there I will be full of nothing but hate.
I'll be CHeering the players we have on the ice, even DDD. They are the Habs. DGMB and MT2 have proven that they for now, in their positions, have total control. Not much we can do. Like you, my distaste for MT2 makes me sick but the only way he gets booted is future failure. We can hope to see Captain Kirk leading the CHarge some day. Until then we can despise the prick behind the benCH but I'd rather concentrate on the great people/players we have in the KidAs, TFS', VodKov's, Weber's, gCHuk's et al. I'll even give a matured CHé the benefit of doubt because he wants to be here and has some slick skill.

I just hope the camera doesn't pan to the Habs bench too often so I won't have to look at Therrien or Daignault.
ReplyDeleteApart from living in the greatest country in the world, other things to CHeer, today;
Delete1. TFS is supposedly/apparently/magnificently 100%. If true, even a stint in the tranna Cup (where leafools will watCH him and BBQ and drool like the fools they are) will get him in game shape. Bonus, TFS™ & Weber (I like the BBQ nic BTW) will be there to lead our country and they are good BC Buds according to Mme. TFS. (Sidenote; a Stanley Cup with TFS™, KidA and BBQ and we may have to have FHFun with The Montreal Canucks!)
2. KidA will be back to 111% (see what I did there?) and now has a twin in A. Shaw.
3. The new kid in town CHevy is signed and will be mentored by Weber. jjdaigneault will have zero effect on these two players. N8 may be jealous but then again may learn a thing or two as BBQ's D pair.
4. CHé on the wing and on the PP. Worse case he spends some hard-earned $3M bonus cash at CHé(z) Parée or loses it completely and smacks MT2's smirk clean off. CHampagne is on the house!
5. PatCHes had an extremely tough first year as Captain. Its his team now.
6. gCHuk.
7. Habs have the Top Bottom 6. NTTIAWWT!
8. Captain Kirk is more than just great looking. (I did that for Moey, aka the angel Kate, who has promised to be back, big time). ♥
9. leaf suck and fuck the Habs-hating SFU.

DeleteI got a new avatar, my new fav Hab CHe
ReplyDeleteVery nice and à propos.
DeleteAccents are easy.

DeleteSaw that.
DeleteDespite losing two of my fav players and keeping wee Davy, we do have a better team than last year. If one of our Euro Smurfs can be a second line player and N8 can stay out of the bars, we may win this year.
ReplyDeleteCanada Day has ended invention for me over here so this will be my semi sober last word on what has gone on in the last few days. Let's start with Lego. Fuckface hard him and he was never ver going to work for the Habs so the fact that he is gone probably makes sense. Good luck to him and I wish him well. Shaw sounds like a bit of a douche but he's our douche now so we should embrace the douche and see what happens. PFK is another story. BBB showed us all his true colours when he repeated the Season ending circle jerk press conference in announcing the trade and reasons behind it. He lied to very single Habs fan. He lied straight to our faces! And he didn't make the Habs any better. He made them older, slower and a fucking shitload less interesting. He voted of the best player on the team for a name who was past his prime but because he has history as an all star he thought he could sell it. He can't sell it. He lied to our faces! Let that sink in over the weekend. Today, we got a crapshoot goal scorer who might work out...but could cramp out ...another goalie and a defence man. Then we learn that some layers tell BBB to his face that they won't come to Montreal. I can't blame those guys. Who would willingly choose to play for MT. Who would willingly sign a deal with a man who has continually lied to the faces of the people who care and support the team. But I guess it is what it is. PFK is gone and no amount of whining will,bring him back. BBQ should be a decent replacement so I will role with that. What I will not ever accept is being lied to. Marc Bergevin is a disgusting horrible person. The worst kind of person out there. He pretends and then lies. In my book he has zero cred. But he has dug his own grave and I am praying that he is dead and buried before too long. This is on him and if the Habs crash out again, he will be gone. No place to hide you scum. And when that day comes I won't celebrate. It will mean that the Habs are not playing well and I never want that. But I will exhale because It will mean that this shit is finally over.
ReplyDeleteSo go Habs go. Go you fucking Habs go! Just fucking win! Great SF btw Moeman. Where you find the motivation I will never know but God bless you! Nice ones all round!
BBQ is a better player than PFK at this moment on a team playing for eMTy. It will be very interesting to watch both Lego and PFK free soar and make eMTY the man with no clothes that he is. However I think we have a better shot at winning the cup in our two year window with BBQ than PFK. Lego was an interchangable piece. The only decent winger he ever had was big TiTS and when the brief moments of EGG line. So it made no sense to keep him, not a thrid line of Lego and a Euro smurf and Cable (Shaw is a big cable company) would be deadly, now we will see wee davy try and keep up and scrapping the ice when he should be playing hockey.
DeleteThunder and storms here so, unlike the song of the day, no fireworks here.
DeleteRighteous rant K3X. All solid and heartfelt. Like you said, time to exhale.
My motivation is having FHFun with my FHFriends who love the Habs as much if not more than me. The original Four Habs Fans set the table for us and I enjoy keeping it well placed, wined and fed.
What a beautiful day here in Saint John, sunny, warm but with a nice breeze off the water. Spent the day with Mrs. M., we went down to the waterfront where there were live bands all day. Had a nice brunch at a newly opened Irish pub, the Cask and Kettle. Wandered around uptown for a bit, had a beer at Churchill's Pub then took a break and went home. Came back in to the waterfront and caught the last act, Royal Wood, who is a fantastic musician, kind of reminds me of Jim Cuddy. WatCHed the fireworks and came home. A great Canada Day, we are so lucky to live in this great country.
ReplyDeleteRegarding our beloved Habs, let's hope that Price, Weber and kidG can provide the leadership necessary to lead this team to respectability despite the incompetence of the coach and GM.
I just watched the new Indpendence Day, IMHO better than the orginal. The Habs are like the movie, a stragagy based upon trading away the best skater and a Russian addicted to strippers.

Patches wouldn't be in a club he says. Well Tonly, he has a wife and kid PK doesn't and PK isn't obligated to go home to his empty condo and live like a monk.

I was not going to talk about PK anymore but it is interesting to consider all the cloak and dagger stuff that was going on late in the season. Remember, PK was only supposed to be out for a week or so with that neck injury but it ended up being the rest of the year. I'll bet PK was shut down to prevent any big injuries from occurring because Bergevin had made his mind up he was going to trade him. Some phone calls led to Nashville who were probably regretting matching Philthy's offer sheet for Weber and knew they had to cough up $8mil on July 1. Sure, PK is a little higher per season but has shorter term and now does not have trade protection. Montreal can easily afford Shea until he retires and Nashville takes the cap hit for the rest of the contract but is not out any cash. I would bet this has been under way for some time with huge money implications being the main driving factor, plus he had to get back another D for PK.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, the first time these teams meet, I hope Nashville wins it on a PK goal so he can skate past Montreal's bench and glare (grin) at Fuckface. After that I don't care if they ever win again.
Go Habs!
its pretty obvious that he was toast. I just want the team to row in one direction even if it is over Niagara Falls with Empty at the helm.
DeleteI hope everyone had a nice Canada Day long weekend. I just had to get some medical tests done (no worries, just for a new overseas visa) and since I no longer have my health card I had to pay out of pocket. I suggest everyone give their health card a long, passionate wet kiss for me. Goddammit.
ReplyDeleteI'm over the shock of the PK trade. It's not so much the trade itself, or rather the players involved, but what it says about the people running this organization. I'm not sure I want to be a fan of that anymore. When people say you have to be completely loyal to a team in order to be a 'real fan' I groan. I can't really support the mentality that ran PK out of town. I'm also very disappointed in how easily many fellow fans and the media have fallen in line. I think we can all understand the underlying 'issue' the organization (and some fans and media) had with PK, and I'm just not comfortable aligning myself with that sort of thing. I'll tune in here and there this season, mostly just to see Price playing again and how gCHuck and KidG are doing, and maybe how Che is doing (until MT benches him and gets MB to trade him by February). I still support a lot of the guys on the team, but like I said I'm not quite comfortable supporting the organization as a whole right now.
Besides, now with PK and Lego gone, who will RDS/MT/MB scapegoat next? We all know it'll be gCHuck. What's the over/under on DD getting back to 1C? I've got Che going in the doghouse by game 12 and DD back to 1C by game 15. But that's not to say I'd be shocked to see him there game 1. As arrogant and pigheaded MT was before, now we know he's the one in charge and can never do anything to threaten his position. But with Muller in charge of forwards (on paper) there might be some actual push back (until he's chased out of town again).
Anyway, look out for Nashville this year. Talk about a stacked team. Amazing when you have a competent GM and an organization that prioritizes winning and entertainment over politics and 'repek'.
yeah gCHuck will be back on little davyies wing by game 10. I just wonder what eMTy brings to the talble, he does not talk to his players, is that not the biggest part of a coaches job? He does not run practices, or PP or anything, so he just shows up in game night and looks constipated and pick line combons out of his mind.
DeleteRussian sports writer Slava Malamud said this morning on 690 that in Russia, Radulov & Kovalchuck are the signature starts of the league since Jagr left, and Radulov can do no wrong, he can criticize his coach and teammates on twitter, he won't have that here. He'll come in with a chip on his shoulder .

the system, try not to ice the puck when you dump it. Let TFS stop the puck. Hope for a lucky bounce and win 1 to zero.

ReplyDeleteUh oh.

relax he is just try to teach Kane the system. consider it a recuitment pitch.
Deletenow AF will play him at wing to start the season.
DeleteArticle that Canadiens' French broadcaster TVA disrespected Lego and questioned if they would have done that if his name was Laurent Éthier. Folowwing the trade they tweeted «Quelques raisons de ne pas s’ennuyer d’Eller ». Dave Stubs was not pleased either.

It was taken down.
Deletetva is a disgusting anti-Hab pro-anything-Francophone/Quebec. A truly classless organization.
True moe. They had to be called out before they pulled it.
DeleteOk, I know I'm late and haven't been around but...OMFG.
ReplyDeleteI don't like the PFK trade...but I don't dislike Weber either (did we 'name' him?). His contract is huge but there are upsides to it. If he retires early, apparently the cap hit goes to Nashville, which is something, I guess.
Contract too long for Shaw but, whatever, it is what it is. He's probably tradable if it doesn't work out. He's 24, 2 Cups, lots of experience. The downside here is he's not playing with Toews' and Kane's. For the record, he did not play with them all the time, but it helps to get a contract in the end (i.e PA Parenteau / Tavares). I also think he's sort of the new Weise. I liked the real Weise's size better though.
Lego is gone. I'm a bit sad about that. I know not everyone liked him but I did. I think his problem was that he was not accepting his role with the CH. I wish him luck in WSH.
Al Montoya. That was a surprise. I hope we keep Condon as backup (or he could be trade bait). Montoya is depth with experience in case TFS goes down, again (it's starting to be a problem to get injured like that).
Radulov (I call him Ragoût). Meh. I'm ok with that. It's an expensive risk, but only for a year and it's not my money so, I don't really care how much they threw at him for the length of this contract. I just hope he effin scores like a maniac. Maybe we'll see a Russian Connection happen.
Happy camping!
I liked Lego too, I think the coach killed his confidence by bouncing him around while giving DDD every opportunity to succeed to the detriment of Lego.
DeleteYeah, I think you're right. He could've been a second line center. Big body, decent amount of skills. He should've been put in that chair long ago so he could get the 'training' required to be a 2nd line center. On the flip side though, PleXXX is still a good second line center and we couldn't get rid of him at that time. Here's hoping DDD gets third line minutes this time around. Is he on his last year of contract?
DeleteYes, it IS his last year of contract! Could also be trade bait!!!

DeleteEller said he's "pulled the plug" on what's been going on with Canadiens since he was traded.
Best thing to do, Lego, forget about 'em. You just weren't on the coach's chou-chou list.
Sorry Hadulf there is no trade agreement between the NHL and Major Midget Hockey.
DeleteTFS is now a Wrangler man.
ReplyDeleteI think he looks great no matter what brand he wears.
I wonder if Lucas Lessio will be re-signed. I liked his game. But i know there are no shortage of depth players fighting for a spot on this team already. Though i like PleXXXe, sure wouldn't mind a bone fide 2nd line centre.
ReplyDeleteHey the M - I was out golfing yesterday and shot an honest 103. Still trying to break 100 and the 3 putting killed me yesterday (usually one of the better parts of my game). My buddy was keeping score and always knocks a few strokes off his score...the amount of balls he lost (at least 8, probably 10 or 11) and still shot a 97 with no pars. But I only play against myself so i just let him believe he gets the best of me. I'm getting closer to my goal - my short game 100 yards and in is vastly improved. Was a beauty of a day for a round even with a severe hangover. Actually i play better hungover because i'm forced to focus a lot more on my game just to survive the day.
Go Habs Go.
The short game is where you make up your strokes. I shot 85 on Sunday and 91 today and the difference was 6 missed putts. Plus, it helps to keep your ball on the fairway or at least in play without penalty strokes out of hazards.
ReplyDeleteHey, I see GMGQ signed another one of his 5th line stiffs today.
Starting to wonder if the M. plays only 9 holes. If not, WOW!
DeleteMB drafted Danault so he must be worth a 2 year extension.
ReplyDeleteIf they sign anybody from the rookie camp (or whatever it is that's going on now), it best be the McCool kid. We wouldn't need to dream up a nic for him.
If you have ever played RISK or Civilization you will recognize the dilima PFK presented. Change the system to fit him or throw him overboard. We chose the latter. Upon reflection I am going to say he was not that good. There are no more booby Orrs the system can Kessel track a guy like PFK to death.\
ReplyDeleteIs AF still AF sure but PFK should have smelled those farts and said smells like a rose,
Yesterday was my "practice" round, today I'm breaking 90, kicking ass and taking names...
ReplyDeleteApparently the Habs only have about 250g's left in cap space but need to ditch 3 players to get down to the 23 man roster. I think DD should take a bullet for the team.
If DDD was a bullet he would be a BB
DeleteOne more sleep;

If AF can make CHey, MCD, and Hudon better teamates we will win the cup next year.

Scherbak look like a bust.
Things could be worse, DGMB could be tony blair.
ReplyDeleteDr Kelly knew, but he strangely never said
DeleteIsn't a Canadiens' player promoting his brand against their company policy?

I am happy to announce my partnership with Wrangler. Watch the behind the scenes of my first day.

DeleteJuce, its promotion vs solicitation. Solicitaion is fine, promotion is verboten
DeleteMarried 25 years today to a wonderful (and patient) woman. We don't celebrate milestones in a big way. Just wanted to order some Chinese food. Favourite place - online order system is down for the week and nobody answering phones, directly to a message stating "enter your system code". Weird. Maybe they're on holidays and shut down for the week. Call up the 2nd fave place and get "We're only selling eggrolls. We've been closed since June 10th except for selling eggrolls.
ReplyDeleteShe's not sure what's going on. OK then. I think the Triad is taking out my favourite dining spots.
Thai food it is for Mrs Pad (i'm not a fan). I'll pick up a burger or something along the way.
Ordering Chinese food shouldn't be so hard. BTW it needs to be gluten-free so options are limited.
Congrats St Paddy, of all the riches in the world, nothing is worth more than a women who loves you.
Deletelong time
DeleteNice one Mr. & Mrs. Saint Paddy. A wonderful milestone for you both. Hope you found the egg rolls you both so richly deserve!
DeleteCongrats to the St. Pads.
