The way I understood Molson yesterday, his comments were for the most part an admission of that.

Really surprised me when he said that the habs have sucked for the last 9 years. Thought he'd stick with the "we had a difficult season and had tough decisions to make so we fired Gauthier".

Instead, he got out of his way to take a swing at the Gainey regime too.

Surprsing, yet, refreshing.

I think veterans should play a large role in this as well. Look at brière in Philly who took Giroux under his wing, and now Couturier.

Exactly especially in a party town like MTL. Make sure these kids are well adjusted, they did a decent job with Gill/Subban and that was luck more than anything. (frank)ing Kaberle..."come eat borscht with me" uggh

Howard isnt banning his friends, well except stormey and 3m, and even then they have to push it pretty far for that.

I test Howard's limits on a regular basis.

Yup.

i got the same answer.

still think they were just embarrassed by it.

It was a very "junior" mistake to allow people to run scripts in text fields.

exactly. Boucher seemed to be doing well. Habs have $ to spare give him a financial incentive to stay and keep up the good work, same with Muller. These guys are 20 yr old millionaires and they don't help them with the basic life adjustments? Ridiculous.

Like Giroux stayin in Briere's house and Sid at Mario's. Habs give their good young prospects millions of bucks and a crazy ass party city full of bars, coke and hot french women, and say "have at it young fella, just make sure youre at practice", and cant figure out where it all went wrong with the player.

I didnt see what molson or savard said about anything, the question remains whether it is a PR machine speaking or how they really feel, i hope it is the latter.

Hopefully the prospect management will improve with the departure of Gainey and Gauthier.

Ya, I think Gainey just trusted them way too much to stay out of trouble.

Carbonneau unfairly got the boot because of that.

I doubt Molson bought the team thinking he'd enjoy watching them sink to the bottom of the league.

Salt beef, either beef riblets or the brisket soaked in salt brine. Makes jiggs dinner yummy. Always says made in NF, chances are it was made in Halifax or England and bucketed or labeled in NF.

Oh, sounds yummy

Another reason why when they are moved as failures they do well, look no further than Higgins, Grabs or either of the tits.

Dinty (frank)ing Moore for the win.

Habs and Leafs don't have a valid reason not to have the best system in place for prospects, they have the money, money they will have to share with other teams as part of profit sharing. (frank)...invest that money in your players development system before you and fund the less fortunate teams like Columbus, Florida, Tampa...

This and all of it, that and the deepest prospect area in hockey aka the OHL and the Q, should have them having a certain advantage as it did years ago.

Carbonneau unfairly got the boot because of that.
- Jayden

It aint like Carbo's an NHL (Or AHL, ECHL, Junior or even Bantam) coach right now... and its not like he's close to being one.

Hard to say him getting the boot was a bad decision based on how he's faring.

I agree, he got hung out.

Price knocked up a 15 year old. Higgins was a cokehead.
