One thing you can set your watch to. No matter the season, the record, or time of year, a loss in Montreal will drive you crazy. Losing in Montreal makes you think thoughts that aren't rational. It drives you to your kitchen where you just start eating things because you're so jammed up. You take your dog for a real long walk after losses in Montreal. You probably lost some inhibitions. If a girl rolls over in bed and wants to have sex the night of a loss in Montreal, you kick her onto the floor, take all the pillows downstairs, and sleep on the couch. Maybe even divorce her.
The hate for Montreal built all game, and then Kris Letang carried the anger of an entire fanbase toward PK Subban at the end of overtime. At that exact moment, you wished Letang threw Subban through the glass and then punched him in the face until Subban turned to slush. Nothing like a game in Montreal.
Overall, the Pens were still able get a point, which is fine. After a winnin...

Since his Atlanta Thrashers moved back to Winnipeg, Lil Jon has been a man devoid of a hockey team. The pain in his heart seems to have subsided, as the rapper was seen hanging out with a different team, the Montreal Canadiens. Lil Jon was seen with the Canadiens Tuesday night before Montreal's 3-2 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The rapper seemed to have a blast chilling with...

Over the weekend, the London Knights would hit the ice twice at the John Labatt Centre. Both Niagara and Mississauga had invaded the JLC and were hoping to come away with some needed points. In those games, London would come away with a 3-2 loss to Visentin and the Ice Dogs as well as a 5-2 stomping on the Memorial Cup Hosts from 2011.

Dee Karl: Isles vs. Montreal: 1 Point Separation

February 09, 2012
Any time the Montreal Canadiens play a game any where there is passion. I donât expect tonight to be any different. The Habs are riding high after a shootout win over the Penguins. They have confidence. But so do the Isles who have earned 16 points out of the last 22.
There is a single point separating these two teams. This will be a battle for sure. But who will be...

How A Power Play Dies

February 07, 2012
As recently as the 2008/09 season I was writing about how great the Montreal Canadiens power play was. In the 2007/08 season Montreal had a league leading 24.1% success rate on the power play. This season they have a league worst 12.1% power play success rate. What happened? How did the best power play team in the league become the worst in a few seasons?
The personnel have...

Grading the Game: Penguins VS Canadiens

February 08, 2012
I’m not enjoying this season’s schedule – back-to-back games, then long lapses of time in between the next game – nope, I’m not liking it at all. What happened to games every other day? It just lacks consistency and it disrupts my schedule as a fan, so I can’t imagine what it’s like for the players. I realize that good teams find ways...

Montreal RW Blunden out 4-to-6 weeks following knee surgery
The Montreal Canadiens announced Wednesday that right winger Michael Blunden underwent arthroscopic knee surgery to repair a meniscus.
Penguins-Canadiens Preview
If the Montreal Canadiens have any intentions of making a playoff run, now would be a good time to start climbing considering they're tied for the fewest points in the Eastern Conference.
They can probably think of two in particular that slipped away thanks to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
With a pair of dramatic overtime comeback wins in the books against Montreal, the Penguins...

This one is tough. Gonch was an aging defenseman. He came off a not-so solid playoff ( see Travis Moen's goal in game 7)
Paul Martin was the puck moving defenseman from the New Jersey Devils. He was younger, much less of a risk.
From Rob Rossi that summer:
The Penguins prefer a two-year term at no more than his previous $5 million annual salary, and Barry said...
