The Lead
Remember back after the Habs got demolished in the playoffs and some reporter told Bob Gainey all about how even his wife was questioning Gainey’s use of Carey Price in the playoffs?
Well now I gotta wonder if the Habs can get her signed up to be GM, because Jesus ...
GAINEY WORKS PLAN TO PERFECTION
abehefter.wordpress.com 7/2/2009 — It was a brilliant strategy on the part of Canadiens’ General Manager Bob Gainey. Whether or not it pays off on the ice, however, remains to be seen.
After striking out time and time again in his efforts to lure big-name, free-agent talent to Montreal, Gainey went out and locked up ...

A man with a plan
dailyhab-it.blogspot.com 7/2/2009 — Say what you will about that plan, no one can argue that Bob Gainey was not focused on the opening day of free agency. Gainey obviously had a vision of the type of team he wanted, and he went out and got it. Yes, the Canadiens needed to add size, and Gainey failed in that regard. Yes, the ...
Did the Montreal Canadiens need to be overhauled?
lionsinwinter.ca 7/5/2009 — It's been swept under the rug a bit, but I still think it's a very pertinent question
To headline writers, Bob Gainey has blown up a team that crashed and burned in 2009.
To anyone with a developed memory and a modicum of sense, Bob Gainey also blew ...
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 ...

I have been a fan of the Canadiens since 1971, but began watching televised hockey around 1969.
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 ...
Every Contract is Moveable
gospelofhockey.blogspot.com 6/30/2009 — Or at least that's the way it seems. In my last post I outlined which teams were in a good cap position heading into free agency. One of these teams was the Montreal Canadiens. One of the teams in a bit of a cap pickle was the New York Rangers. Today these two organizations made a trade: To ...

As the Montreal Canadiens imminent sale to the Molson family nears, it is interesting to note the diversity of previous ownership groups of the hockey club, their differing success, and the perception of these figures in the public eye.
This is Part One of a series on the Canadiens ...
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 ...
Four Habs Fans shares Montreal Canadiens draft thoughts
cyclelikesedins.blogspot.com 6/26/2009 — Four Habs Fans adheres to many of our favorite Internet traditions, throwing out equal parts clever, cruel and ... curvaceous. Don't be fooled by the random eye candy, though, because under that exterior is a core of fabulous hockey writing. In traditional FHF fashion, their post is brief but ...
