Did you actually say you want to keep Darche on as a consultant / scout?
- RENATO6


no need to have a special title...just make him stand in the dressing room after the games so he can explain to the media why they lost.

People hate Subban so much...
- QuebecPride


Subban was there as well, but not as popular as if they would have asked the question last year.

I think people are fed up by his crap...I have to say I am. I think the stupid is strong on this one. I don't think they should trade him, but I sure hope he gains maturity over the next few months.

You could answer that question by yourself, by going on the previous page monkey.

I will not back read posts.. especially yours..... I am not a masochist.

The fact that Darche is on this team is a prime example of how pathetic of a team it is. Why would you extend that in any way...

Well, yes, that does surprise me. With the wins in the 70s, someone would have to be well into their 40s to remember it properly. If your saying that's the majority of posters here, I'm definitely surprised. I would have pictured the average poster being in their 20's or 30's.

Quand est-ce que j'ai dit être pour la hausse? Je suis contre la hausse, mais vraiment pas convaincu par la grève.

J'suis justement en train d'écrire le courriel de convocation à l'AG de grève.

He sucks and the fact that he still has a job shows how sad our prospects are... not 1 AHL player has been able to take his place.

You don't think that they'd rather play those sad prospects 20 minutes a game instead of 4 minutes on the 4th line?

They are fine in the AHL, and considering the fact that the team is a cluster(frank), might as well take those said sad prospects away from the team.

Of course he isn't responsible - for any of it. That's not the point.

The point is that he is playing 20 mins a game and doesn't belong there.

I hope for his sake it does, but Engels isn't far off when he suggests the team is mired in a psychological fit. I think he gets that you just have to work harder through it but not sure that it will be enough. He has to know that he's gonna get Reddened.
- Pie


I believe this is absolutely true. It is also the most overlooked and damaging factor I think.

Once an organization becomes perceived as being run by a bunchof clowns and icing a bunch of underachieving losers, it starts to snowball. Players stop wanting to go there, the team on the ice is in such a bad mindset it is tough to change. The fans aren't happy and become quick to jump all over the slightest negative...

I need only look at my own reaction to the Leafs to know how bad it can get. I hate to keep bringing up the Leafs in comparison but the Habs situation is becoming very similar. They need to change this perception as much as changing anything on the ice.

They can't afford any more stupid trades, or coaching language conspiracies or players who don't show any respect for the logo or the game...

It's his last year in the NHL anyway, cut him some slack. He's got 8 points and only -1 on a cluster(frank) team.
