Apparently the Kostitsyn bros. and Roman Hamirlik are involved in some sort of street gang or rival gangs. As much as I dislike the Habs cause of the rivalry with the Bruins, no organization should have to face this kind of heat.

Splaya 02-20-2009 01:39 PM

Yeah, this is really bad news. Just being sad that they have been seen at bars and restaurants together with the bad guy, who is facing weapons charges. Still, going to be interesting to see the way Bettman and the Habs handle this

Kapoutman 02-23-2009 09:44 PM

Basically, it looks like everything has been overblown and people are blaming RDS and the commenters on "L'Antichambre" as reacting to rumours too soon. Apparently the police never went to Dorval airport, and the Kostitsyn were only acquaintances of the guy who got arrested as he spoke Russian too and would pick up chicks for them. Hamrlik was only mentioned by the same man in a phone convo but didn't actually talk with him.

I watched the "L'antichambre" show you linked to, Zen. Wow, from what they said, I thought half the team was wanted for murder.

Ridiculous Bruins game right now. 3 fights so far and it's only in the 2nd. Hell, even Savard fought, so you know some shit is going down on the ice.

Gertner 02-28-2009 04:17 PM

Ovechkin is so damn good it's scary.

LoDownM 03-01-2009 12:37 AM

Holy shit @ Nashville beating the Red Wings 8-0

Gertner 03-01-2009 03:20 PM

Bill Guerin got pulled off the ice prior to the Sabres game last night apparently to await a trade. My guess is either Pittsburgh or Boston.

El Fangel 03-01-2009 04:40 PM

Holy shit at Montreal beating San Jose...

Oh wow, San Jose lost another close game to a decent team, yeah that's a HUGE holy shit right there. :roll:

When a team that's never been past the first round of the playoffs, beats the defending cup champs 8-0, that's a holy shit.

Yeah not really too worried to be honest with you. I just hope Detroit got it all out of their system Saturday. Conks was awful, but Osgood came in and gave up 2 goals on 2 shots.

MVP 03-04-2009 07:30 PM

Mark Recchi is a Bruin.

Olli Jokinen is a Flame.

Bill Guerin is a Penguin.

Kind of surprised that Bowmeester didn't get dealt today considering he's a FA this offseason and he already said he's not going back to Florida. I would think that the Panthers would want to get at least some prospects for him.

Kapoutman 03-04-2009 10:44 PM

Yeah, but they also want to make the playoffs for the first time in a while, so it's not like they had a choice. The Habs did the same with Souray a couple of years ago.

Frankly, it was the most boring trade deadline day in a decade or so.

Blitz 03-04-2009 10:45 PM

Toronto was in pick stocking mode, unsurprisingly. Not overly sad to see Antropov go, but I wouldn't have minded Moore sticking around.

Why would you pay a guy 2.5 million dollar who has 12 goals and would be a 3rd liner on any other team in the NHL.

Florida needs to make the playoffs for added revenue. Trading Bowmeester would have killed that.

I never said he should've got that deal. I just would've have minded if he'd been re-signed.

Gertner 03-05-2009 07:09 PM

But that's what he was looking for. He wanted 2.5 and the leafs offered 2 mill.

Blitz 03-05-2009 07:14 PM

I. Know. Just saying I liked him as a player.

Kapoutman 03-10-2009 07:16 PM

Carbonneau lost his job. :eek:

Gertner 03-10-2009 07:46 PM

How do you spell desperate? H A B S!

Gertner 03-10-2009 09:48 PM

MY boy Belak just knocked out Donald Brashear!

Gertner 03-11-2009 06:33 AM

yeah, we're so desperate because the bar was set so high for us.

El Fangel 04-07-2009 12:46 AM

Last week boys, who do you think is taking the chalice?

Gertner 04-07-2009 01:25 PM

Bruins

Goulet 04-07-2009 01:47 PM

Caps

Gertner 04-07-2009 05:29 PM

not with that goaltending.

El Fangel 04-08-2009 12:11 AM

Montreal

LoDownM 04-08-2009 12:35 AM

Maybe you should wait till they clinch a spot ;)

Gertner 04-08-2009 06:18 AM

hahaa Montreal. Is that your new favourite team? Did you buy a Koivu jersey?

Lara Emily 04-08-2009 07:18 AM

Pens

LoDownM 04-09-2009 02:49 AM

Columbus clinched tonight, good for them. After the way Mason's been playing, they had to make the playoffs.

Nope, I would buy a Price jersey though ;)

The habs have a poor defence. Boston or Washington will knock them out fast.

Kapoutman 04-10-2009 01:02 PM

Sharks is winning this year. For once they have all the right ingrdients. In the past years, they usually got knocked early because of poor defence and a lack of anything good past the second line. I think this is their year, if Marleau can come back soon.

Also, the Habs are now officially in the playoffs. And as a huge Canadiens fan, I want to make the prediction that no matter who we get in the first round, we won't make it past match #5. :(

weather vane 04-11-2009 12:21 PM

shut up kapoutman you stupid fuck

Zen v.W.o. 04-11-2009 01:22 PM

Bruins suck.

LoDownM 04-11-2009 03:16 PM

Wings sign Frazen to an 11 year deal :eek:

El Vaquero de Infierno 04-13-2009 03:03 PM

I wonder who will take over from Lemaire at the Wild come next season?
