If they wore it every game they'd be guaranteed the cup. It would practically be malpractice if not just stupid not to? And yes I want them to wear then for road games too. Absolutely agree with this. Those jerseys have an edge to them. We should definitely be wearing them all playoffs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nux need a third line chipping in again after Dakota went down. Once he is back, coach will have more options. But that's a good problem to have. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimist Prime Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I am a minor Habs fan, but tonight, this one's 2 points as good as ours. 6 goal night for Vancouver! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's a good problem to have. It's good energy on the wings. Mikheyev looked good on the forecheck last game. That's absolutely a good problem to have. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeesh how did they ever get away with that? And I wouldn't want to take a slapper to the face with those goalie masks that are little more than Halloween props lol. That's nothing, back in the day at Montreal Forum & Maple Leaf Garden there was no glass on the side boards and fans would hang their arms over the side and flick their cigarette ashes onto the ice and put their beer bottles on top. The whole place was a giant smoke pit! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really blown away at how Hoglander has improved since being sent down to Abby. And to think he's only 23. He's going to be a key part of our future success big time. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some may remember that the goalies had to fight with the owners to be allowed to wear masks, and eventually had to force the issue down their throats. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture of Gumper with a cigarette and beer was classic. I remember when the Habs picked him up from the Rangers and he backed stopped them to another Cup. No better GM than Sammy Polluck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone is wearing their finest suits. Rogers Arena may not be able to compete with that, but the vibes in the building seem pretty awesome this year, at least through my TV screen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but... he had first crack at all Quebec players and 3 farm teams that could almost whoop most NHL teams themselves. F Montreal! They have too many Cups. No more sniffs at the playoffs until the Canucks have more Cups than Les Habitual Snots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Absolutely loved the story that Cherry told of being called to Polluck’s office during preseason. Yes, Don was once owned by the Habs. Don was feeling pretty good about his camp and was surprised to hear say he was traded to the Flyers. Well Philly wasn’t in the NHL in those days so that meant a AHL spot. Then Cherry finds out it is the Spokane Flyers of the Pacific Coast League. I miss Don and his great stories. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
