Oiler fans need to chill. You have a bad team just deal with it! You can talk about the habs overpaying for players and they have but they make the playoffs after bad trades and bad signings. Cant say the same about the Oilers.

Your upset at hab fans because they were last and now their 1st with less talent than Edmonton. Idd be upset as well if i were an oiler fan!

Oilers fans are so cute with building their lines and make certain trades like trading hemsky, smid...players you actually need to keep.

I have lived in MTL long enough to know that this is a very typical attitude here. Habs fans have the parade planned now...then...when their overly soft and weak-down-the-middle team flops in the playoffs (if they make it), they will light up Tony Marinaro's radio show, screaming and yelling at how horrible the team is. THE MOST FICKLE AND FAIRWEATHER FANS OF ANY TEAM IN ANY SPORT.

Michel Therrien has them playing together and Carey PRice is the only reason they are FOURTH (by a longshot, Boston has 3games in hand).

This is a very typical Hab fan post. Oiler fans are pragmatic, and most of the tinkering talk on these boards stems from frustration that management is always trying to make good decisions and not trigger happy. EDM doesn't trade players during a game, or have a language controversy over coaching, or a rumour mill and constant monitoring of off ice activity. Habs fans and media are ridiculous.

It's Carey Price, tweet him and thank him. It's just him.

Good post.
- Whiskey-Tango

True dat. Great post. How is that good/great team doing in Vancouver btw? More riots in 42 years than cups? Yup, funny how the last two teams who won the cup, and beat Van on their way to the trophy, have less arrogant fans than the team who has not wan anything ever. Thanks for stopping by guy.

They made the playoffs last year after their trades/signings, or did they finish 28th in the league??? Not sure when oilers fans bash habs fans or the team as it's in the Leastern conference so not sure any of us give a flying (frank) about what the habs are doing. Question is if you come to the oilers threads to spew this poop, are you in need of attention that bad? Did you wanna talk about things bro???

I think Engels has gone to some of the off-season ice times as well, I seem to remember him there. I haven't gone that many times, less than ten, but I play with a goalie (who actually isn't that particularily good) who plays with all of the pro guys from the NHL and Europe when they come back for the summer. I get a lot of info from him when he plays with my room. He actually really brags a lot about playing goal with all of these pro guys, and he's a pretty poopty goalie...but his stories are great! lol

Good, just wanted to clarify because you sir, see things on an entirely different level that 98% of the posters on HB do not. It is one thing to watch guys on TV and rate/female dog/moan and complain about them, it is entirely another to actually skate with them at that level. Much respect to you sir. It is kinda like during the lockout when laughs (who has a business degree) argued the economics of the business with average joe fan. Some people just think they know everything without actually doing anything.

who mentioned overpaying for players???

this is a really handicap post....
is this meant to be dissing the oilers? i cant really tell..

if ur gonna troll, dont be so weak about it....my little brother couldve come up with something more clever

the habs are a mediocre team on a hot streak. with no real shot at a cup, and theyll come crashing back to earth and the bottom half where they belong in no time. everybody outside of mtl knows this

- hugefemale dog77



is it just wishful thinking? hahah or are you u upset that the habs success is a completely slap in the face to the oilers organization. the habs suceess is because of great team play. the moral of the story you don't need the a few top players to ve successful. you need balaance and a system that complements your team. enough of the hate bro, what tells you the habs are over achieveing?

You and the other Habs fans will vanish as soon as they come back to earth....just as quickly as you appeared with their success sunshine. Enjoy their ride.

woah woah woah woooooah! lol

I never ever played any serious hockey...just junior, university, minor pro, etc. There just seems to be a very open and accessable hockey scene in Montreal in the summer time that's all. A lot of guys have friends here etc. and come skate with them in the off season. I am absolutely a "joe fan", just to clarify. But yeah, I go to every game and have friends that play pro and stuff.

I think what a lot of people miss is the fact that for the guys playing in the league, it's a job. It should not be too much fun, it should be work...HARD WORK. I don't think the current makeup of the Oilers gets this. Just my opinion. Most of my best friends, we've punched each other in the nose over the years...a lot! lol

man well agree to disagree. sure there are some silly habs fans, like any othrr fan base out there. tony marinaro is an idiot btw and no one should use him as a savant at all. i can also tell you somehabs fan are very educated when it comes to hockey. the fact that you have said what you said shows you havent watched a habs game at all this year. price has done his part and kept in a game or 2 for sure, but hes certainly not tge only reason we were in first or tied at this point.

your rant is ignorant ans sad bro. the population of alberta live in montreal, theres obviously going to be some crazys, but to lable a whole franchise because of a few bad eggs shows a lack of intellegence on your part. man I know I shouldnt be frustrated by posts like this but you are ao far off and claim to be in the know that I had tonsay something. youbsound so stupid bro. grow up and stop being so frustrated. you know for a fact that many of the fans here will condem everuthig that went down last year. every organization has had some low points. but hockey is more than a sport here, its religion. its been the reason for social change and has changed politucs in this province.

either way your opinion is your oopinion. just a word of advice researh or at least try and not be so hateful or make poop up to sound like you know what you're talking about.

lastly marinaro has bet against the habs about 90% of the time this year in his mise o jeux.

- sanfordnson


It's actually worse Sanford, they jump on their own team at the first chance. In a strange way, I kind of admire Leaf fans for always overvaluing their players, for always sticking up for their team through thick and thin. Yes, it's annoying, but I rarely hear a Leaf fan hammering on his own team the way Habs fans do.

for sure bro, you could say that about everyteam. I wish we were talking about theboil in first. but if you're a fan of hockey you'd see the habs are on the right track. why is it hard to see that they are playing really well as a team and thst it can lead to success too. I'm not saying we will win the cup butbwebsure aee on thebright path.

yeah, I'll go and do hockey research! lol I'll get right on that one.

Have you ever played defense in front of a great tender and in front of a crap one? Yeah, exactly. Price doesn't have to make 50saves every game, it's the fact that he's THERE. I'd love to switch them. Give someone like Jeff Petry the confidence that Subban has to make such low percentage plays...it's a different world. Teams with questionable goalies have to have their mind on so many other things within each and every play.

You go do your research...I have a game to go play at 10:30.

A number of things have aligned correctly for the Habs this year. Imo, and Ive held this for a long time, that team lives and dies by Markov. Price too, but Le Glorieux are a different team when Markov is healthy.

ok so the fact we have carey price helping the def make low percentage play is a bad thing? therrien is about make the right and safe play. I'm not a hockey wiz and never got a chance to playbut my pops designed coaching systems and coaching manual for hockey canada and the richards were close friends... this season is a classic example of great team effort and not just individual effort. its exciting really. lastly price doesnt have to make the hard saves or work the same way as last year. hes getting more perimeter and soft saves from the outside. the d is doing a great job forcing the openents to take low percentage shots.

no doubt I dunno silly phone and sitting in bed haha. sorry I was repetitive. I'm just saying thatbwhat you wrote was way off. the habs drafted price, he had to be stellar in other years, ala kipper. this year not so much. even with buddai in net we crushed philly 4-1 and then the rangers 3-0.
