Okay, this post is slightly late seeing as Montreal did actually win last night, but in general let's think this over. Since the All-Star Break, they are 3-9 although they do tend to be pretty streaky -- there was a good stretch in the start of January. There was a front-page story on the webpage for the Montreal Gazette the other day (bless sports towns) and now there are a slew of comments, most of which want to blame head coach Guy Carbonneau. But is that really the problem? I mean, he did take them to a conference championship last year (they then choked Manning-style in the playoffs), so it's hard to think that he is the sole problem. The article claims that Montreal is now 'playing scared' instead of just playing, which seems like a lousy answer. It's hard to know without being able to actually watch a game...I haven't been as good this year and feel a bit behind.
Whatever it is, get your collective acts together!
As a further 'What the hell' how is Montreal not playing on a Saturday night? Is there some national Canadian event I am unaware of?
