CONSISTENCY AND PATIENCE...THAT'S IT!!!!

Boy oh boy...we are in a pickle.

Five straight losses since i was last able to write anything about my beloved HABS.Is the panic button pressed already on the 7th floor of the phonebooth?If not,i guarantee you that BOB is feeling the heat.

First thing first....for those of you who watch a game once in a while and get all your info from JACK TODD and P.J STOCK and company(don't lie to yourselves you are NOT hockey fans and even less HABS fans)there are alot of you...get off CAREY PRICE'S back,the guy is 22,has just lost his best d-man for probably the remainder of the season and still kept you in the game in all the losses except for the rout in van-city where nobody showed up.Don't break the guy's spirit because if you do this kid will win somewhere else....


Now,what do i think we should do you ask?Well first of all let's not panic and switch the lines every period(i think GUY CARBONNEAU proved that that does not work!).The first line should still be GIONTA-GOMEZ-AK-46 2nd line:PLEX-CAMALLERI-PATCH 3rd line:LAPIERRE-TENDERNESS-MOEN 4th line:METROPOLIT-LARACQUE-D'AGOSTINI.....
In such a bad slide i don't think moving all the guys around is the answer,let's be patient,you don't really have a choice,things will fall into place.

Start HALAK tuesday,we'll see the kid BERGERON and i think it might be time to give CARLE or SUBBAN a quick look...

Don't give in it's still early...

P.S i ran in to GUY CARBONNEAU at adonis in the west island...walked up to him and said:bet you're happy you're not there anymore?...he proceeded to give me the nastiest evil eye i've ever seen....nice guy!not even a smile...jerk off!!!

GO HABS GO!!!!

One game at a time....

Wow, two games in and the habs defensive lineup is seriously thinned out.



I'm sure i don't have to remind you of the bad ankle injury MARKOV suffered in the first game of the year against the leafs.My information tells me that the first diagnosis of four months seems to be a tad optimistic,according to my sources(that's right baby...i got sources!!)it could be as much as a season...Let's cross our fingers.



I would like to come back on the first two games of the season quickly.First KOMISAREK BOWL a week ago,what can i say more than thank you CAREY,thank you GIONTA and a special thank to MIKE "LOSER" KOMISAREK for being himself and letting us tie the game up in the last five minutes with one of his patented stupid penalties.The buffalo game was one of little excitment except for CAREY PRICE's performance and of course GIONTA's incredible overtime tally.


The news now is that WEBBER as been called up from hamilton and don't be surprised if MATHIEU CARLE also gets the call to the big club.There's also been quite the buzz about GAINEY signing free agent defenceman MARC-ANDRE BERGERON who played for MINNESOTA last year.

I think the philosophy now is just to go one game at a time.If you look at the situation now one win on the west coast would make us 3-2 onthe road trip which would be more than acceptable.


Next game tuesday in CALGARY and the most dominating defensive core around the league.If PRICE keeps it up and the new guys keep playing with the grit and determination they have shown,it should make for a great game...Enjoy


WHERE ARE ANDREI AND PATCH!!!more to come....

GO HABS GO...GIONTA FOR CAPTAIN...

MARC OUT
