All useful Twitter accounts in one thread
Since I use Twitter on my mobile a lot these days, and post here of course, it would be nice to start following some Habs insiders on the Tweetplace. I don't remember any accounts specifically, so I'd like some help in getting started. Maybe some users here could post good twitter accounts relating to Habs and well the NHL in general!
Let's make a list of all of them here or copy paste them into some other thread??

MAGodin = Marc Antoine Godin
renhockey = Renaud Lavoie
amandacstein = Amanda Stein
I follow these people for lineup news or injury updates. They are all pretty solid.

Seriously though, I was quite impressed with Matt Barnaby's tweets since I've added him. He can be pretty funny.

I'm relatively new to twitter, but I had to delete Bob Mackenzie and his 400 tweets per day

Still better than Lavoie's terrible English.

You crazy?! Bobby Mac is the best "insider" in the business. His posting is not annoying, it's always about hockey too. He'll post maybe one thing a day about something else and usually excuses himself when doing it. You high. Way high.

Might as well put a
on Patrick Caisse. That guy is awful.
MLalancette is a good one though. He's better than Stéphane Leroux at the LHJMQ twitter thing.
@capgeek is a good one.
@FriedgeHNIC is Elliot Friedman

Good thread idea. I don't follow anyone on Twitter but I've been thinking of starting finally. I guess I just need to eliminate a buch of other useless things I do on the internet first.

I get twitter to follow journalist but I really can't care about some average-joes' takes on the team and games.
"Oh this guy in Petawawa really knows his stuff".
Really? Who cares?

Those 3 are usually good for a laugh or two. habsinsideout1 and Bobby Mac's are my two favorites by a long shot for NHL hockey. We use twitter a lot in our CIS conference, pretty much the only we can get scoring updates during games.

It's worth making a twitter account only to read what he writes.

I second Matt Barnaby's twitter. He has some pretty witty stuff, and love his tweets about his son playing hockey as well.

Not hockey insiders, just some of my faves that I follow:
@stevofarnham - Very funny
@HabsLaughs - Also Very funny
@JacquesFMartin - Fake JM account, funny
@kyleroussel - Very knowledgeable
@seriousfan09 - Love this guy, very knowledgeable about prospects also
@micrich3 - another very knowledgeable fan
I'm @breannad if anyone wants to follow me. My tweets are along the same lines of what I post here.
