IDK wtf happened to us.

We were ballers last year and we seemingly got better in the offseason however that has yet to show. We are in serious jeopardy of not making the playoffs and Carbonneau is on the hot seat. We have played sloppy and a lot of players haven't played up to their potential. It's been a long year and one that will likely end with a 1st round exit from the playoffs should we even make it.

As much as I want Vinny in Montreal it will cost too much and he won't bring us a cup this year, possibly next but not this year that is for damn sure.

I cant beleive the gm sent the captain home. It did make the habs play better from what I read, but still . Maybe tell the captain to start a fight or something else.

I heard a rumor that the captain may want a trade... is that true?

Blues playing better hockey lately

Kovy is saying different and I doubt they trade him. Maybe in the offseason but not now. They sent him a strong message and I think he got it.

tortorella has A LOT of cleaning up to do as well as their gm who shouldve been fired for giving the players they have horrible contracts. the rangers have so many average to 2nd tier players making way more then theyre supposed to be making.

lol Henrik is the only great player we got we have some nice young players. I just hope with Tortorella we aren't as passive and have consistent line's so we don't get those stupid too many players on the ice penalty which should never happen

if there is one thing Tororella isn't, its passive. The real question is if he gets them to play hard long enough before getting p**sed at him
