If you grab a microscope and use the 100x zoom, you'll be able to see the Canadiens sitting in the basement of the Northeast division. That joke works in two different ways as they suck and they're short! But inall seriousness, the Canadiens have some major issues this season. On Saturday the organization fired Jaques Martin and gave assistant coach Randy Cunneyworth a shot at the top spot. Of course, Montreal isbeing amazing stupid about the whole situation.

That was rough start to the season's longest road trip, wasn't it?
Last night the Canadiens fell to the Bruins 3-2. Although the effort was there, turnovers absolutely killed the Habs. P.K Subban's less than slick between the legs pass and Travis Moen's inability to clear the zone proved costly.
