To me....the leader on the ice is PK.

What about off the ice or in the room ?

SEPARATIST!!!!

French supremacist !

OH yeah... because speaking a minimum key phrases in French when being the Captain of the Montreal Canadiens is so hard...

The real disgrace was Having a player/Captain not being able to say Bonjour and Merci after living in this city after all these years.

It's called having a minimum of respect for the fans.

zzzzzzz

I don't understand why Gallagher continues to get brought up.

Why? Because he crashes the net?
- stormey

i don't get it either.

Markov is the right choice.

Subban will get it once Markov retires.

The same as yours. You know it as much as I do.

Bonjour and Merci goes a long way over here.

I kinda agree with Waterboy.

Hell even Subban keeps saying some nonsense in french from time to time and people just (frank)ing love it.

Koivu could have made a little effort here and there and the idiots would have dropped the issue.

This being said, the way they kept bringing it up and blaming him for it was stupid and abusive.

i think the whole "respect for the fans" thing is a bit naive. these guys don't give a poop about us any more than we give a poop about them. we boo them, curse them, etc. where's the respect in that? Joe Sakic couldn't speak French and he was the captain in a city that is far more French than Montreal.

Oh my... why am I not surprised at this response ?

Take that anglo thinking brain of yours out for a few seconds and think like Roger Tremblais that bleeds blue blanc rouge 13 months a year.

this was a great opportunity to call him DoublePuke.



also I think what he's saying is specifically that nobody gives a poop about Roger Tremblais

Fine, if Joe Sakic wants to make a comeback he can have the C.

Most Francophones do care about being Francophone.... point is.. give them a (frank)ing cookie.

I agree he should've at least learned "Ta yeule" to tell it to a couple of journalists.

i should have included some diagrams and pictures for WaterPuke in my response.

That would have been perfect:

"Ah ta gueule Tremblay tabarnak".

Issue solved.
