We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Throwing this out there they might need to clear up their diet and hit the gym harder.
Unfortunately these multi millionaires need a kick in the ass. They don’t need a best friend.
yup
but if he was the only one but he is not sucking
20 year old's are sucking too.
but yes 92 needs to wake up too
MSL we are learning??????
like what , to be lazy
He often says stuff like no time to be sorry and things of that nature. Seems to be an easy way out of not reflecting on the poor game.
Which is why players love him, but I don't think his diagnosis is accurate, at least in public. This might be the reason the team is lethargic for long periods of time. One thing is losing, but another one is to be non-competitive for long periods of time.
When you lack confidence, you need to do the simple things that will allow you to get your confidence back...Confidence doesn't fall down from the f***ing sky,.
I'm going to assume this is closer to the real Habs team. This is the team we've seen for about 3 quarters of the season.
Weird thing is if we win tomorrow (big IF), we're still only 4 points out of WC2, as Detroit lost today and all the other teams around us are crashing back down to earth, too.
Currently, we're 6 pts out of WC2, and 6 pts out of draft pick #4 (Buffalo has 2 games in hand on us, too). Lol
We're teetering on the edge.....
My idea against Tampa:
Caufield - Suzuki - Newhook
Slafkovský - Dach - Anderson
Laine - Beck - Gallagher
Dvorak - Evans - Armia
Beck is a center, him and Gallagher are warriors and can pass.
Dvorak can play winger. The fourth line can start in DZ.
Newhook very helped Suzuki and Canfield, with his speed he created paths for them.
Slafkovský and Anderson would hard at the boards, for checking. Also Juraj has better hockey IQ than Newhook.

M...ouch. He seems to attract goals for every mistake.
X...boards say ouch
Monty...thanks for nothing
Laine...please retire this afternoon. No really, this afternoon...
Math-Carrier...who knew that they are this teams Ministry of Defense
Our defense was suspect at the beginning of the year, then settled down for the run, now a mess again. I can't believe Guhle absence is so massive. It just puts a fork in our pairings because we simply don't have the right combo to pair. Hutson needs TLC and not going to get it from another rookie. M needs veteran TLC and won't get it from blind leading the blind. I love what X brings but he's a 6th defenseman. Savard is old and it shows.
If it was anyone but Guhle, we wouldn't have this mess.

Team is too stubborn and immature, and I don't think MSL knows how to put them back on the rails.
After trading Monahan really, Habs played for .406 post Feb 8th 2024 (9-15-8).
Guillaume Latendresse looks like a hardworker in retrospective.
It's beyond me how people pay to see this shit.
...he isn't the right guy for the job anymore...yup, sound like a broken record but so does this team...we need Structure, we need Accountability...Marty can Hug It Out all day now, no one is listening...Marty needs to go at the ends of the Season, bring in a tougher coach and see who is actually listening and who isn't...if they aren't, move 'em out...
Funny thing is, Patrik played pretty well in this game. If only he had gotten the puck when he was in open space.
But no one can blame Evans. He plays vertical hockey, focused on the battle. That's why Heineman is so good with him. He has great acceleration and plays a similar style of hockey. Which is why he might not have chemistry with Suzuki and Caufield. They prefer more horizontal with puck possession, passing.
Yeah but that's one aspect of the game and doesn't take into account the complete picture of the game of hockey.
Laine is a disaster in his own end because he is too slow to commit and makes his linemates hesitant on what to do based on his decisions. Often results in double coverage and open ice for the opponent.
This happens on a consistent basis and sucks the life out of his teammates 5 on 5. It's not fun to play like that.
That being said, I wasn't expecting anything more from him at even strength. He's pretty much playing on one leg.
