I am blown away by this thread.

In anticipation of tonight's game, I wore red to work today and set my Microsoft Lync display picture to being Habs-related. I do what I can. Damn office dress code.

Damn.. so many likeable players on that roster. Complete opposite of the team we have now.

Andrei, Sergei, Koivu, Higgins, Plekanec, Kostopoulos, Lapierre, Latendresse, Hamrlik, Streit, Markov, Price, Halak, Begin, Komisarek (when he was good).

I even had a soft spot for breezer. I never was a fan of Kovalev, but he was magical that year.

That 07-08 team was soooo fun to watch. Too bad it collapsed the following year :(. That's what happens when you have a bad coach.

I hated Carbo, but in 07-08, he had the right balance of lines, hard to disagree with...expect if you were a Ryder fan lol.

Just looks that way now.. but that's not 100% true.

Tanguay
Sergei Kostitsyn
Andrei Kostitsyn
Latendresse
Briseboise
Laraque
Price

Just a few players who were probably hated on constantly that year.

That team was pretty damn fun to watch and that season alone was crazy.

Those guys were all blasted the following year. In 07-08 where Andrei, Sergei, Lapierre, O'Byrne, Price were all green, people were in love.

Latendresse was always polarizing though.

It is true most of the hate for those guys came the year before. The rest on my list, I'd argue they weren't fan favorites.

I think what was unique about that team was they all had different characteristics and personalities, yet gelled pretty well when winning.

guys, I need you help big time.

Might not make it home in time for the game.

How can I watch the game via my ipad or iphone, I know CBC streams the games, but need flash, I download their HNIC and CBC app maybe they stream it live thru there?

I know for the Olympics, their CBC Olympics app allowed you to watch games live on iphone or ipad.

Please help a habs brother out here.

The fact that Therrien had it in him to recognize that Murray's too slow to play against Tampa is really an important feat. As much as I dislike Frankie Boo when it comes to skating and the first pass, his play is leaps and bounds ahead of Murray.

Yeah but Tinordi is a great skater he should've drew in

lollllll I actually thought about it, but knowing my teacher I would not only get 0 on the report, I'd get 0 for the class...

Watch the game and describe the game in text form to finish the rest.

I liked Therrien's "tonight is da night" speech. Hopefully he gives one as good as that pre-game.

I really have no idea what to expect tonight. We have so much potential.

I have to write 15 pages for tomorrow... I'm a third of the way in. I really hope I can stay motivated enough to finish it before 7.

I honestly thought you meant game 7 :facepalm:
Btw. the GDT is awesome, Bork is an angry, angry man.

Lol Tampa bay fans think Carle is better than Emelin?


If theres one thing in the entire NHL that the Montreal Canadiens are good at, it's containing and shutting down elite players in the post season. Crosby, Ovechkin, etc.

I think they are going to sick Emelin on Stamkos.


Playoffs are a completely different demon. New coach + Tampa's core barely has any playoff experience together. It's the reason why we didn't succeed last year.

'sick' Emelin on Stamkos? Are you kidding me? :laugh:

Emelin was bottom 3 in our defensecorps all year. Only recently has he started to pick it up, and even then, he's no world beater defender. He can break even against middling or slightly above average competition, but that's about it. Standard, top 4 guy.

Stamkos is hardly ******** himself here.

That was with Martin as coach, a more tactical and defensively-aware coach than Therrien.
