With the NHL Trade Deadline just a mere five days away, does a decision of whether or not to trade defenseman Andrei Markov need to be made? Are both sides that far away from a new contract? One would think that is not the case as there has been quite the history with loyalty on […]
I pose the question to all of you as well, are Gionta’s days with the Habs truly numbered? Today I want to discuss certain areas of Gionta’s game and contract situation that may spell the end of Gionta’s tenure with the Montreal Canadiens. Of course this is all open to discussion and interpretation so please […]
With the 2014 Sochi Olympics now underway that doesn’t mean the rumours won’t continue to run rampant throughout the NHL, especially in Montreal. It is no secret that the Habs are in desperate need for a top line scorer and it is clear Bergevin is unwilling to truly “deal” for the teams’ top need (I.E Parenteau). However […]
Like the title says three years have passed since the “controversial” trade that sent playoff pseudo-hero Jaroslav Halak to the St. Louis Blues in exchange for Ian Schultz and a young Dane by the name of Lars Eller.

Whenever the Canadiens and Bruins do battle not much is needed to further the hype that goes along with one of the NHL’s most storied rivalries but tonight both teams added a little a flair and put their respective streaks on the line. For Boston, the Bruins had their six game winning streak snapped while the Canadiens extended their point […]
Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin didn’t wait until the trade deadline to revamp and as most seem to agree, upgrade his fourth line.
