    Montreal Canadiens - will they hold on to a playoff spot?
    I hope not, and things are looking good for me.

    Montreal Canadiens losers of 5 in a row on the road.

    Montreal Canadiens won 2 of their last 9 games.

    They might not even make the playoffs, Nicky do yourself a favour and update your profile and remove the "Stanley Cup Champions" from it, it makes you look foolish.

    Habs!

    Leafs really did expose Carey Price's glove side tonight. I think the Habs could possible not make the playoffs. I love it.

    The Leafs looked good tonight.

        Price was my favourite Hab tonight, by far, I also liked Kovalevs play.

        Nicky is delusional.

        The team with so much talent on paper lost to the "inferior" team with 10X the heart of the habs.

        Way to go Leafs!

          You can't give up 5 goals at home to the Leafs and expect to win the cup. I'm having 2nd thoughts about the Canadiens now.

            Wheres the leadership on this team, the heart, man are they struggling. This is what happens when you build your team around a bunch of French Canadians and Europeans, no one is willing to do the dirty work that wins games. They need some grinders.

              Fiver your a slow learner, I've been saying this all season long, and nobody has paid any attention to me.

              Puckoff, he said the same thing as me earlier as well.

                  Tully you're sharp, and I agree, I've been saying the same thing for quite a while about the Euros especially.

                  The Frenchmen are visor wearing poutine eating pussies.

                    Sean Avery was right about the Frenchmen. They bitch and moan all game, and then turtle once a fight or a scrap happens. Give me some Western Canadian farm boys and then the playoff victories will come.

                        the team is riddled with injuries.. also, last i checked, nothing is decided 50 games in.. the season ends in June.. still 5 months to go.. you can start talking when the season is over and they are eliminated.

                        boys, see you all at the stanley cup parade. this team is going far. wait till they get healthy for playoff time.. still too early to talk.. you boys should know better.

                            Nicky, you have to admit, they need to make a move. They need some Ontario grit on that team.

                            Maybe Todd Bertuzzi, something, anything!

                              Your team has a heart the size of a pea. Anyone can see that.
                              Toronto is an expansion team at this point, they make no excuses - they just play with heart.

                              Make all the excuses you want, Montreal will be eliminated by Boston, New Jersy or Philly, take your pick, if they even make the playoffs.

                              I was just looking over the habs roster, only two Ontario born players, three BC boys - and SEVEN Quebecers !, habs are in deep shit, they only have 5 Canadian born players on the roster!

                                Within two years no one is going to want to play the Leafs in Toronto, Burke is going to bring in a bunch of toughness, they are going to be physical, and out work the opponent which will bring out the loudness in the Toronto fans.

                                  Nicky, who is going to stand up to Lucic or Thornton on the Bruins, in a playoff game, your team is made up of a bunch of pussies, who rather get manicures than dig the puck out of the corner. I need to stop betting on them because they keep screwing me over.

                                    Kovalev will take care of Lucic, and Koivu will keep Thornton in line, problem solved.



                                    Montreal is within reach of a half dozen teams.

                                          So would I, and there is lots of time left to sink to the bottom.

                                          Look at the standings, Leafs not far from an excellent draft pick.

                                            Nicky i hope some team from Quebec wins the Memorial Cup because that is the only way there will be a parade in Montreal.

                                              Nicky you don't have any response to valid questions, all you do is repeat yourself, maybe if you say it enough times it will come true.

                                              Seriously, habs don't have the grit, they have no answer for the toughness of Boston, Jersey or Philly.

                                              I know you aren't capable of admitting this team isn't good enough, you've stuck your neck out too far already, it's ok though pal - we understand, Montreal only has one team and without them you have nothing to look forward to.

                                              Plus, I've already prayed to Allah and Muhammed has come to me in a dream - he assures me the habs will finish in 9th. This is paradise for a Leaf fan.

                                              Praise Allah!

                                                This team will go as far as Carey Price can take them.

                                                    when this team gets healthy, it is the best habs team put together since 77.

                                                    this object will be hanging out on Ste Catherine's street in montreal come this June.. watch and see.. i will make sure to film it for all of you sbr posters with me standing next to it..

                                                    Enjoy it, cause you will be seeing a lot of it in 5 months here in montreal.

                                                      The Canadiens have no Mike Keane or Kirt Muller on there roster, these are the guys you win with not Kovalev.

                                                        Why bother Tully, he has nothing to back himself up with, I'd love to hear a serious response from him but he acts like a typical Montreal teenager - the habs will win just because they are the habs.

                                                        That ship has sailed, it's been more than 15 years since Montreal won a Cup which is very difficult for them, they were so used to having everything tilted in their favour.

                                                        Since the Leafs haven't won in a longer period of time its not such a big deal here anymore.

                                                        There is a god and he came to me in a dream telling me habs finish 9th - 1 point out of a playoff spot, this is paradise for me.

                                                            Have they been traded to Boston?

                                                              The coveted Lord Stanley has been won 24 times by montreal.. that is more championships than any other team in professional sports.. In 5 months, it will be 25 stanley cups when they will be hoisting the coveted Lord Stanley.

                                                              Enjoy the view, plommer. i know you love this site..

Burke will give that organization direction and an identity, Montreal has talent but no identity, that have great skaters but they dont give a cup for synchronize skating.

                                                                    I agree, if anything Burke will at least put together a tough team - soon, the Leafs get pushed around too much.

                                                                    Strange that one of the toughest teams in the league the past few years were called the Mighty Ducks.

                                                                    Look at how quickly Boston has turned things around, gives Leaf fans hope.

                                                                    Montreal has had its way with Boston over the years, the habs are in for a rude and painful awakening, Kovalev will wish he was back home.

                                                                    Typical habs fans and their frail Quebec egos need to remind everyone they have won the cup long ago, you don't see Toronto Blue Jays fans doing it, after all its been a long time since Toronto won its World Series Championships.
