habsisme Posted November 15, 2021 Report Share Posted November 15, 2021 Even I, who likes MB, think like the rest of us that its time for a rebuild. If MB is not willing to do that, then someone needs to take his place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect very few had a win percentage as bad as .267% 17 games into a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect very few had a win percentage as bad as .267% 17 games into a season. Remember this? The Canadiens missed the playoffs in the lockout-shortened 1994-95 season. It was the first time in 25 years the Habs failed to qualify for the postseason. Obviously, heads would have to roll. For some reason, though, the coaching staff remaining intact during the offseason. Perhaps it was the offensive spark that came when the team acquired Pierre Turgeon, who immediately clicked with Damphousse and Recchi to provide some much-needed scoring. Perhaps it was General Manager Serge Savard’s unwillingness to part ways with his coach. Whatever the reason, the team went into the 1995-96 season with the same manager that dealt away LeClair, Desjardins, Muller, and Schneider and the same coach that steered the team to an eleventh-place finish in the Eastern Conference. The Habs stumbled to an 0-4 start where they scored just one goal in each of their first four games. It was the club’s worst start in 57 years, since the 1938-39 Canadiens began the year 0-7, Larry Wigge reported. That was enough for Habs’ president Ron Corey, who fired both Serge Savard and Jacques Demers. I don't even want to remind you what happened next. But I will say, that it was the beginning of the end. (which is where we are still at today) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could choose ( and we can't), who would we like to see buy this team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuddyWaterMoose Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 State of the Habs? Well, every day after work I check the sports news to see if anyone has been fired. Every day I am disappointed. That is the state of the Habs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise we're short down the middle... We could have still played JD at center, more likely what it means is that someone is ready to come off the IR or get called up from Laval and we needed to open a roster spot.

It's no guarantee especially seeing as he's French, but he'd be at the top of my list for players to dump. Even the AHL call ups have outplayed him IMO.
