To answer Sam's question about "how long will the Habs fans be patient?" : in my opinion it's all about seeing progression. We've seen players progress and that's great, but now the attention is slowly turning to the team's progression. Seeing our team getting hammered 7-2 or 8-2 in just over a week is definitely a concern that something is off. But then again, we need to look at it on a longer time frame than just the first 10 games of the season. Where will the team be in February or March? If close to dead last, then yeah, we'll definitely be turning our eyes to the coaches and their system.
Nylander, Domi, Tavares, OEL, and maybe a sweetener instead of McMann (although I appreciate his talents tremendously. Phenomenal up and coming playing for TO) -- but you might wanna try a Robertson or Jarnkrok when he's back if McMann doesn't work for this PP2. I think they're dangerous, and if PP1 doesn't get it going within 60-70 seconds, I think Berube should blast the message into their skulls: GET OFF THE ICE, GIVE PP2 THEIR SHOT! I mean, we're bottom 3 or 4 in the entire League on Powerplays. For a team and players of this calibre, you need a drastic change. Hell, start PP2 and give them the same message. You have a minute to setup. If you're snapping it around and creating, fine, if not, fly your ass to the bench and let the other line get therir shot.
Eric lindros is the perfect player, he could hit, fight, he was a great leader, he was great offensively and defensively. If I had a brand new franchise and I could pick any player from and decade, I would take Lindros
He's an idiot ... no one liked or respected him or his brother. Both concussed out of the league, and both cheap shot artists. No family character. Mo Seider is the one dark horse I would build on .... this guy is amazing with great potential to become a top 5 D-man in the league.
Not fan of the fan touching a player. Another case of “he wasn’t injured so you’re overreacting” but if he was injured it would be full assault and battery. 🤷🏻♀️
Ricky Bowess looks to be a nice guy. A facilitator type of coach. Not a Greg Berube type of Old School coach. Totally on the other side of coach ' spectrum' . The berube type of coach has won once Stanley Cup. So....probably he is a better coach to this type of club. Or any club .
I used to wish you guys would talk about the Habs once in a while. After todays episode, i take it back 🙄 For the record in their last 4 games: L 7-2 Rangers, W 5-2 St. Louis, W 4-3 Philly, L 8-2 Seattle. Not whatever you guys said. The least you guys can do on the national hour is have the correct info. 🤦♀️ Youngest D core in the league, in year 3 of a rebuild, while learning a new defensive system. This team will be inconsistent and lose more than they win. We get that it won't always be pretty, but the analysis you guys gave just makes it look like you did zero research. And yes, Montembeault had a bad night vs Seattle.
@susieq3571 year 3 of a rebuild eh so does it take 10 years to draft a few guys that can actually score. Find a goalie and 6 defenseman? Sign some defense and realize Suzuki will never lead your team anywhere but an April golf course
Still have the jays in the background. Details boys
Derrick killing it recently with the drops

Now with lily gone time to send jarnkrok outta town too first time in a while might actually have ~5 mil for deadline piece
Liljegren’s Future is sorted out
Hey Nick K, Burube mentioned Keith T, not Brady.
Benning couldn't mahe it as a 7 D man on a team with a terrible defence core. What can he do for the Leafs?
Not cost 3M to ride the pine and they got picks.
Benning isn't the prize. The picks and cap space are.
Cap space

Not even close to the time the bruins jumped into the crowd and beat the spectators with their own shoe!
Leave Pacioretty & Tavares on the same line

He was going for the ball not the player and probably paid a small fortune for those seats, please don’t cry over it
Kypreos hates those sound bites doesn't crack a smile other 2 laugh at them

just missed
Liljegren trade
88 is fine, search elsewhere
Can’t we just have any fun?! Dumbest take of Sam’s career.
Disgusting behavior by the fan,
