c'mon guys I know we have been bad lately, But we have the makeup to still contend this year forsure
Kovalev needs to be demoted to the third line , And maybe he will wake up.
We are still a really good team And I think every team goes threw patches like this, Better them go threw it now then deep in the postseason, And even threw this patch we were still in all of the games even though we know we werent playing our best.
The only game we played terrible but werent atleat a goal or 2 in reach was agaisnt boston
no one is doubting we have the potential to be a good team. the fact is we have no work ethic, no strategy and play 20 minutes of hockey while our key players are not showing up.
He should voice his opinion again. The fact is when he said that last year, it was true. Maybe that got the team fired up because they played much better after that.

I think we need to be a little positive here
No one says that the Habs lack of talents. They just lack of passion, efforts, decent coaching and leadership.
Hey, I'd actually prefer it if Kovalev was the only problem - but he's not, it's more like the all the top players. The offense isn't doing much, and the defense is weak, and did we mention special teams? Price is about the only player who was completely blameless tonight.

NAHHH... Some members here rather say Kovalev brought the whole line down, or better, Kovy brought the whole team down. He was the reason why Obyrne played like **** tonight, after bringing Plekanec and A. Kost. down, he's now attacking Koivu and Tanguay. Hes the reason why the D gave almost 50 shots to the Canes.
I'm obviously not a Habs fan, and I hate to intrude, but I have to say I completely agree with the premise of this thread.
Your team is performing below its standards, but that doesn't mean X player should be benched or that the coach should be fired. For a team that's been at or near the top of the division, the fans sure are fickle. Very few teams do the Red Wings-esque domination of their division (or conference), so you'll have to get used to the fact there will be a month (maybe two) that the team plays some below average hockey or cannot beat the seemingly beatable teams. Every single team goes through a slump at some point, and the good ones always persevere. But it's like the fans are not even giving them a chance to do that; many are willing to give up before they work themselves out of this. And that's a shame, because it's the 100th season and it's supposed to be an exciting time in Montreal, not this exaggerated whine fest.
Good to know that there are some of you that are more rational and patient. To the rest, take a deep breath.
