TSN 690 and Other Montreal Based Media (Part 10)

[ahmedou]

Could be worse, you could be listening to Tony call gas stations right now asking them if they can help the Habs because they are out of gas. I feel embarrassed for him. He does this shit all the time.

 

[sampollock]

690 is all pro mtl now
gallo will be negative again

 

[dauv]

like I said before I love Tony and his show but these phone pranks need to end. IT'S NOT FUNNY

 

[sampollock]

Gallo is trashing the chances of the habs vs wash

why hire a guy that does not like the habs

I don’t even think he likes himself.

 

[Schooner Goon]

I don’t even think he likes himself.

Haha! I wouldn't like myself either if I were him.

 

[sampollock]

Haha! I wouldn't like myself either if I were him.

Agreed

I'm a fan of Tony's. And I enjoy his show and podcast.

But I can understand why some aren't fans or at least don't like some of the stuff he pulls off.

I'm entertained by his antics.

To be honest he's better than the guys on 690

Not a high bar to be better than 690.

But I feel like 690 hasn't been the same since Tony and Nilan left. Both of those guys added some color to the station. Now it's just bland.

Yeah it sure is for English speaking person like myself I don't have much choice to tune in once in a while to 690

It sucks that there's no Sportsnet radio here as there is in Toronto. Because I feel like Sportsnet would force 690 to be better.

I guess that's true they have no competition
So they can put whatever program in they want on

À lot of people can switch between bpm, 98.5 and 690, they have compétition.

Yeah if they speak French that's a great alternative

 

[Wateredgarden]

Yeah if they speak French that's a great alternative

I meant that there's a lot of people who follow the Habs can speak both language, so it's all competition.

 

[dcyhabs]

I’m originally anglophone and I dropped TSN and sportsnet. RDS and especially TVA have their warts, but are still way better for habs stuff.

Oh for sure I got what you meant

 

[Reimannsum1988]

Good, expansive conversation about Xhekaj through the morning and, blegh, Campbell versus Gallo shows today, recognizing how his slow decision-making and limited IQ would render him the most significant liability on the ice when pressured by the Capitals' forecheck and that fans are delusional for believing that the Capitals, known for their aggression and with large, physical players throughout their lineup, would change their games in any way just because a goon like Ryan Reeves was in the lineup.

Just wish they weren't so insufferable about it, as they are in all things.

and gallo is not habs fan he loves the debates to start a war

 

[Kimota]

Loved how this morning BPM sport finally talked about the unfair treatment of Xhekaj and that some of the other Ds did not bring much to the dance(Savard had no hits last game).

if Arbor's iq is limited WTF is wrong with Matheson ? the guy is turnover machine.i'd like to see the Arbor that first started playing for us with huge confidence,a sneaky accurate shot from the blue line and punishing net presence but smarty bonaparte prefers the shiny toys and head games...just sickening.

No, what happened was Arber flanderized himself and instead of playing effective, smart hockey, he went around chasing hits and fights and became a total liability on the ice. He didn't sort his game out in time and Struble is in his place.

These arguments would have way more weight if Arber actually played some good hockey when he had opportunities to cease his spot in the line-up. He didn't.

Matheson is an accomplished NHLer drafted in the first round. Always had the pedigree. Arber was working at Costco 4 years ago. He has a lot longer to go to become a full time NHLer rather than a fringe D.

so pedigree gives you a free pass ? don't get me wrong there's alot Mathesion can do but over using him does not help him at all in fact it's poor player management which seems to me like one of smarty's biggest problems.we'll see if he can coach his way through a single series.
