It was a nice moment for Ovechkin who has not been up to his normal standard this year.

But yeah the Caps have not shut anybody out in two months, makes me wonder if the problem was Vokoun...but that would be too easy.  Probably just got lucky tonight and the Jets were unlucky.

Jacques Martin is out, Habs' website reports he has been fired.

things will changed now.  The Habs will win the 'Cup this year, I'm sure.  It's not like they don't fire their coach every 2.5 years with no results, after all.

I don't understand how you view Hockey. When the Nords come back, will you be this assholish to your team aswell?

Projecting myself on to Viper...

the Habs were never his team.  They were merely the team he happened to cheer for.

And I love that you phrase it "when the Nords come back". :showoff:  I see that I have blazed the trail, and people no longer doubt the re-emergence of hockey in the heartland.  :Canuck:

As BB said, the Habs is not my team.  Why should I care what is happenning to them?

The Habs problem lies not with the coach, not even the GM.  It's the Habs philosophy at the the heart of the problem.

I wasn't assholish, I just pointed out that changing the coach will change nothing.  François Gagnon said the same in La Presse today.  Yet, he's a Habs fan.  And now, you have a unilingual head coach for your team...  I can't wait for the Habs bashing on Monday in the general media :)

See what I meant?
Different coach, same team, same result (French)

I wasn't assholish, I was only speaking the truth.  Don't blame me for that bro!

Gagnon is a Sens fan.

Also you are assholish because you only do it with the Habs. Where were the snarky comments when Davis Payne lost his job or when Randy Carlyle did? Paul Maurice?

Also, I agree, of course Gestapo Gauthier should have been fired, really never promoted to GM.

What philosophy? the NHL is a league of me too cats, they all do the same thing.

newsflash: I'm not a hockey expert.  I almost never watch a full game until February/March, unless I attend one live, and then it's more a question of the roadtrip than the actual game.

shunning young players of talent, aiming for the average guy, aiming for a spot in the playoffs rather than the cup itself, etc.
It worked in 1993, and it seems they're stuck there.  Where are the flamboyant attackers?  The offensive-defencemen relauching the attack with superb plays?  Where's the show?  Seeing the Habs play is boring.  They are slow and boring.  It's not Pittsburgh, it ain't San Jose, it ain't Edmonton.  It seems to me they always want veterans for a high price, thinking it will let them win the cup, like in 1993.  And each year since then, they fail.

And once again, it ain't my team.  My team was the Nordiques.  They are dead, so I have no team left, but I still hate the Habs.  And I'm happy at the suffering of Habs fans, just as they were happy of my suffering as a Nordiques fan  :yucky:
