One day after Mike Cammalleri made disparaging remarks about the current status of the Montreal Canadiens, the Habs decided to part ways with the veteran forward. Montreal traded Cammalleri to the Calgary Flames on Thursday night, after pulling Cammalleri out of Thursday's game against the Bruins in Boston and sending him back to the hotel.

Even Montreal players are calling the Canadiens a bunch of losers.
Of course that player is now an ex-Montreal(lucky him, he got out) player and that player is Cammalleri.

A Toronto area born player, he said he would have liked to come here to play for the Leafs. It was not to be.

Must say they came up big yesterday. A 4-1 win over the Rangers a day after a 3-2 shootout loss to Ottawa.

He also said he wanted to stay in Calgary , they didn't want him 2 yrs ago
Then his agent approached Toronto , they also didn't want him
So Montreal offerred hio $6 million ....how could he refuse

His nickname is " me, myself and Mike "

Shut out by Washington. 3-0.


Someone must have told Geoff and Pierre to shut up. No fun from these two clowns lately.

From the 'careful who you step on' department, Martin, recently fired by GM Gauthier, may end up replacing him as GM. Martin is one of the suggestions for replacing GM Gauthier this summer ... if the current GM lasts that long.

Cammalleri scores the shoot out winner in Calgary's 2-1 win over LA.
Halak shuts out Edmonton in a 1-0 win for the ST.Louis Blues.

Letang's return sparks the Pens to victory !
Chris Letang scored the Pens first goal and assisted on the tying goal to force OT.
The Penguins big gun, Malkin, comes through with a goal to tie and then the shoot out winner.
Montreal's big gun, Gomez(a $7.3 mil cap hit), is no where to be seen.

It is likely the English only coach's fault.

Montreal
Jaro Spacek spoke with the media yesterday and stated that it's an absolute mess in Montreal, starting with the coaching situation (the fact he doesn't speak french). He added that the players don't go out anymore and that he's happy he's no longer playing there, referring it as a zoo. "It's a mess!"

This is so funny. There is a rumour in Montreal that the GM thought they were increasing the French content:p when they got Rene Bourque.

Coach Cunneyworth gets to ride inside the bus. Montreal beats Detroit 6-2(there was three minutes left, I assume they will hold on).
Subban fought with the D coach in yesterday's practise.

I was curious to see what YOU you will say if it have a non-anglophone coach in Toronto for example. He cannot survive more that 1 day! And as you you will never accept that, in Quebec, it should be acceptable?

NO WAY. Out cunneyworth. De todo manera, he is one of the worst coach that Montréal had, he always loose.

I was working on a response, but then I realized it wasn't worth the effort.

Loose ... lol.

If a french speaking coach was hired to coach the Leafs ... it will never happen ... too many English guys that know what they are doing, but I will play along. If he could lead the Leafs to contention and a Cup win or two you think I would care what language he spoke ?
Would I prefer a born and raised Toronto guy ? Of course, but that is secondary. Winning fixes everything.


Worse coach in Montreal history ?
Cunneyworth vs Mario Tremblay(Colorado is still thankful that Mario came along)

I see Subban has learned nothing from the English speaking coach. A game, and the All-Star break later, he is still slew footing guys. He needs a three to five game suspension or a good beat down.

Pat Roy is waiting by the phone.

It's not worth the effort. A fellow who went by the name "mazingerz" continually polluted the merb board with his hate-filled xenophobic rants (although it was amusing how much he could rile up the anti-French whackos and incite them to throw a collective hissy-fit). Finally the moderators had enough and threw "mazingerz" off the board. If the terb "mazingerz" is the same guy, he's just a troll.
