Maybe she could convince Jay Bo to come to Montreal... So much promise, but such a let down. Still, it could have been worse. That's how I would describe Transformers 2 and how I anticipate I will describe the Habs UFA situation in a few days. I admit, I'm a Transformers fanboy. I ...

GOOD-BYE CAPTAIN K
abehefter.wordpress.com 6/30/2009 — It’s over.
Saku Koivu’s career as a member of the Montreal Canadiens effectively came to an end yesterday, when General Manager Bob Gainey announced that Koivu was not among the team’s potential unrestricted free agents to receive a contract offer from the Habs. That honor ...
The FHF Salutes All the Dads
fourhabsfans.blogspot.com 6/21/2009 — A father's love ... sometimes misguided, always genuine. Michael Farber calls the Canadiens the most self-reverential franchise in pro sports.

lionsinwinter.ca 7/5/2009 — It's been swept under the rug a bit, but I still think it's a very pertinent question

I didn't know much about anything back then. The Beatles were bugs, Woodstock was a Peanuts' cartoon character, and I thought it was a funny thing when Mom caught ...
Sather evens things up
dailyhab-it.blogspot.com 6/30/2009 — I guess this is payback for Jozef Balej. When Bob Gainey hoodwinked Glen Sather into taking Balej in exchange for impending free agent Alex Kovalev back in 2004, Montreal was abuzz with the thought of a marquee name finally landing in the city. Now, just over four years later, those two men have ...
Will Leblanc be The One?
dailyhab-it.blogspot.com 6/16/2009 — It's time for the predictable Habs draft assumption. This annual ritual closely follows the conclusion of the Stanley Cup final (one, by the way, that I correctly predicted on April 15. Just saying.).
