Bob Gainey??

73SC · A Poncho Legend!

He made a big mistake when he decided last year to go with Price and deal a proven NHLer. I don't disagree with his call tonight though. Their goaltending is weak either way. Look to the real problem. Name me a veteran on that team who has the respect and passion for the uniform and history in Francaphone Canada who can step up and get it done and represent. It is ashame actually.

Beliveau, Richard, Roy, Lemiuex, Lafluer, there just isn't anyone like that on the team. Do you expect a Russian to step up and do whatever it takes to win?

Jean Beliveau walks in the rink tonight and he just oozes history, winning and pride. I had a coach who once told me that there's only two things you need to know about hockey, PRIDE & RESPECT. I pass this on to all my charges to this day.

True, but Halak is better than Price.

The team just went downhill.

Not looking good, and odds are for Montreal to get swept out. odds now are almost 3 to 1 if Montreal wins tomorrow.

the habs are very similar to the leafs,except they play in the first round of the playoffs.remember a few years ago when the leafs went out the first round and the habs nevermade the playoffs. Both teams arn't very good. I think they need a complete shakeup for both teams

I think the Leafs are just completely bad. I don't know why people still go to there games, I have a feeling if fans stopped going to leafs games, then they would have no choice but to smarten up and start winning.

The leafs are one of the best business going. You could have the worst place team in the league, and the house is fullevery home game.Why invest money into the team, you are not going to get anymore gate money, maybe sell more shirts etc.At least the hab fans stop going to the games when the team is not very good.I watch the leafs every saturday night ifI am home, but I wouldn't really call myself a leafs fan.

I was out at a meeting, just got home so I missed the slaughter. My son says the Habs need a rebuild more than the Leafs, "they are so far away from where they need to be" was his quote.

Don Cherry cites the All Star weekend as the turning point for Price losing his confidence as a big leaguer. Shades of Patrick Roy, we will ever see him in the Canadiens Jersey again?

I just saw the replays on Sports Centre. I can't see how Price can be faulted on any of these goals, one breakaway was offside for crying out loud and they hung him out on all but one.
