GIJAYNE Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I'm back from le Hopital (just got in an hour ago). I have a lot to do at home, but should be caught up on the hockey news by tomorrow. Stay tuned for the first official MN update of the season to be released tomorrow morning. Enjoy the game all.

GIJAYNE Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 ONE TOO MANY HLD’S FOR THIS WORLD Some might have known that wee HLD was due to arrive in this realm we call earth just in time for the season. The delivery was booked for this past Wednesday, which would have made our return home for today at noon. We now have proof that the HABS Lovin’ gene exists, for wee HLD was born prematurely just enough to ensure a return home for Friday afternoon…just in time to watch the HABS season opener. As you can imagine my relationship with my daughter is starting off on the right foot and I couldn’t be prouder of her for the initiative she took in mommy’s womb to ensure the HLD’s were watching the glorious HABS open the 2008/2009 on a 50” HD feed, rather than a murky, snowy 10” hospital TV where you’re never sure if you’re following the puck or a rabid squirrel who’s run on to the ice. As I sit here with blood shot eyes, working on an average of 2 hours of sound sleep over the past five days, barely able to string together words let alone keep my eyes open, I peak over my laptop screen and watch my boy discovering the lump of crying blanky on mommy’s lap I realise how luck I am. A great family, a cup of non-hospital coffee (oh it’s soooooo good) and a team on it’s way to the Stanley Cup we can all be proud of. Last night’s game neither impressed me, nor unimpressed me. I didn’t see any major faults in the team. There were many instances where it was apparent this team is just starting the season, however once they start gelling and the timing is down this team will be perennial winner. Early indications (and it is very early) this team has depth, no weak links, and plenty of potential. We’re already good, but as the youngsters grow throughout the season, we will be even better. Tis’ a season we will all remember I’m sure. On that note I must be on my way as the murses is giving me a look of desperation. It’s time to delve back into the reality of feedings, diapers, constant craving for attention and never ending chores. The best and worse words I ever heard from my wife: ”Let’s have a family” Final notes: As I am a Concordia Alumnus, I watch and support our Stingers teams…especially when we pound the RedMen. The football game will be webcast today at 1:00 p.m. on stingers.ca if any are interested (it is against Mount Allison and should be a run away exciting win for the Stingers…JOIN THE SWARM!

mikejones1 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 MN Bonus available for 2008.10.11: Yesterday a lot of things went wrong and the Habs got just 1 pont and no bonuses. The good news the Habs got 1 point and at least 1 bonus is guarantied tonight. The probability of getting 2 bonuses is very high, so it could very possible be a 4 points night. ...2 bonuses - likely - if just 2 of the following 7 happen: ...... Toronto loses to Montreal in regulation ...... Ottawa loses to Detroit ...... the NY Rangers vs Philadelphia game ends in regulation ...... Boston loses to Minnesota in regulation ...... New Jersey loses to Pitsburgh in regulation ...... Carolina loses to Tampa in regulation ......

Kindred Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Dags, first of all congrats on the new addition to your family also you should always remember that she came early enough for you to catch the game when she hits 16 and starts asking you to borrow the keys to the car as for the game I thought the boys finally started to "wake up" towards the end of the 3rd period and in ot. IMHO i think alot of fans were expecting us to steam roll the sabres because we have bene picked to finish 1st in the east again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flames4eva Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 From the Poop-Deck... We're off and running... scouting the Eastern Conference - 2008-2009 rivals of Our beloved Bleu, Blanc, Rouge. Its our job to keep everyone informed about just how the Habs stack up against the most direct competition... and we have a new format as you may have noticed... THREE DIVISIONS/THREE SCOUT GROUPS for now and until otherwise adjusted... that means... NO INDIVIDUAL TEAM SCOUTS... DIVISIONAL SCOUTS as follows: Atlantic Division: Devils; Islanders; Rangers; Flyers; Penguins Current scouts: Flying Lion Northeast Division: Bruins; Sabres; Canadiens; Senators; Maple Leafs Current scouts: hatethoseleafs, Newfie_Gurrl29, sportsfreak_39 Southeast Division: Thrashers; Hurricanes; Panthers; Lightning; Capitals Current scouts: 1970Habs EVERYTHING SCOUTING GETS POSTED IN THE SCOUTING THREAD We are looking for three to five scouts per division... so if you see a vacancy just drop a post in the scouting thread stating which you would like to be or PM me. What happens here? As the Admiral, I will post a daily schedule and links to game previews and the Daily Line among other things. As a scout you will post all updates (injuries, trades, chit-chat and such - not previews or the links), articles and opinions (personal or otherwise - open for discussion) that you find or are of interest for your respective Division, while trying to avoid repetition. That simple. Welcome to the MN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIJAYNE Posted October 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 A GLIMPSE OF THE 08/09 HABS Toronto sucks…what’s new. Joycing over the blow-out win last night makes as much sense as praising Oscar De La Hoya for winning a match via knockout after three seconds if he were paired against yours truly in the ring. Comparing the Toronto Maple Leafs to the Montreal Canadiens is no different than comparing an Enzo Ferrari to a Toyota Prius. They both have their supporters and devoted fans, but at the end the Enzo has the Prius on every category hands down. With that said, I am of course a devoted Leafs hating HABS fan and can’t let a blow-out of our arch nemesis go by without saying: NEENER NEENER NEENER….WE KICKED THEIR BUTS…AND HOW! To give some credit to the Maple Leafs, they came out strong, but just couldn’t hold on and match the HABS horsepower (kind of reminded me of the HABS two years ago). Halak is of course directly responsible for fending off the early onslaught. Had TML potted on early, this would not have been a blow-out. We still would have won mind you, but not as comfortably. As for the HABS, some overzealous fans might already be staking their spots on the parade route after this game. I have two things to say to that: 1) The best seat is already taken. I chained my lawn chair to the best spot back in May 2008. 2) The HABS have certainly showed some fire power in rolling three scoring lines. Some are already gelling, others are not, but having three lines that can score gives some relief to say, Kovalev’s line, that is not firing on all cylinders yet. They don’t have the added pressure of not performing at 100% and not getting goals since, well, the other lines are winning games while they work out the kinks. And then we have our fourth line with so much competition for three spots, you can bet your last buck that anyone having the privilege of receiving ice time there will be giving 2,309,787,438 %. This was apparent in our first two games of the season, where the fourth line had a bushel of self created chances by grinding and fighting hard in the corners. Even though this team is being picked by many to win the East, it is still grossly under valued and estimated. The balance, skill level and depth we have makes this team so potent, that this blind fool has had them as a Stanley Cup favourite since May. Not to take anything away from Detroit (they are one heck of a superb team), but they will undoubtedly suffer the Stanely Cup hangover, at least for this season, before returning to the finals next year. This is the year for the HABS team. Now with that said, our team is no where near its potential yet. Last night the TML were generous in giving us chances and not making our errors look too obvious. By the time this team is firing on all cylinders, no team, no matter how defensive will be able to stop us from dominating start to finish. SO to summarise Toronto sucks (what’s new), we rule, and last night we had an average game (relative to our capabilities). Just wait and se what happens when Kovalev’s line gets back to potting a few a game, the defence locks the neutral zone down and our transition game gets back to a smooth flowing play. On to the STINGERS. Well in comparison to the blow-out win last night in Toronto, the Stingers’ game yesterday afternoon was much tighter. I know some will quote me from yesterday saying “it will be an annihilation”, and I’ll admit that maybe I underestimated our opponents a tad. The Mount Allison Mounties put up a good fight, and it was a nail biter till the end. However after a long hard fought battle in the trenches the Concordia Stingers came away with the win 66-13 It was 45-8 at the half…final result could have been much higher if we kept the foot on the gas pedal, but what can I say, we’re a bunch of class acts NL STANDINGS OCTOBER 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think leafs vs bulldogs would have been more competitive! haha thats more like what to expect from the leafs this year, LOL i can't wait to hear the excuses from leaf fans after this total domination from the Habs. GO HABS GO This reality check brought to you by the Montreal Canadiens nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, goodbye... Laffs got OWNED. the Habs 6th goal was just plain revenge for pathetic Antropov's pathetic goal celebration when his team is down 5-1. So much for this new "effective trap system". Don't get me wrong, Leaves will do alrite this season, finish in 9th or 10th and blow their chances on Tavares Well there's really nothing surprising about this - the Leafs kept getting stupid penalties against one of the best (if not the best) PP teams in the league. So yeah: they've got destroyed. The funniest moment of the whole game for me were when the Habs fans started signing 'Ole'... man, was that ballsy... and hilarious! on the bright side... The Leafs were undefeated for part of the season. LOL Things are bad in Leaf Land when you're hearing that at the ACC. - on the Ole chant I don't know what was more embrassing as a leaf fan. to lose 6-1 to the habs or have the hab fans sing OLE' loud in our home rink. Anyone that was a leaf fan and was there should be ashamed that you aloud this to be heard over any go leafs go chant..... and some Ron Wilson quotes: “We're not going to win the Stanley Cup this year. There's a news flash for you.” “Yeah, he played, but he made mistakes at the end. He allowed what looked like a great effort to dribble right down his chin.

"But you don't buy all that jewellery and stick it on an ugly person."- Wilson "I'm sure there are a lot people with crayons writing down a parade route," Wilson joked. - after the first regular season win over the Wings After last night's loss to Montreal, Wilson was asked whether there would be lineup changes for Mondays game against St. Louis.
