I was sitting on my couch the other night watching some NHL playoff hockey while drifting between important paradoxes, wondering about what kind of soap a real man uses and who I thought the Habs should hire as their next bench boss when, like Noah afloat on a flooded earth trying to force a bunch … Continue reading
Well we’ve got our guy. So let’s hear it folks, what do you think of new Habs GM Bergevin and what does he need to do now? Sean – I’d be lying if I said I was intimately familiar with any of the alleged GM candidates – my understanding of Mr. Bergevin’s pros and cons … Continue reading
As the news of Pierre Gauthier`s dismissal sets in I won`t avoid stating the obvious: this is a pivotal moment in Montreal Canadiens history. Much of the team`s future success depends heavily on Geoff Molson`s judgment and vision relating to choosing the next General Manager. Everyone wants to know, “Who will be the next GM?” … Continue reading
As the Habs season winds down, the boys take a look at the teams that will be playing when the regular season ends, discuss the biggest surprises of the season and try to pick a Cup winner. The Two-Four: March 22nd
As the 2011-2012 season winds down, Habs fans have no choice but to look forward to next season. So what should the Habs line-up look like for the 2012-2013 season? Pat – What I’d like next year’s roster to look like. The skaters I mention here would help improve the team’s power play, face-offs, secondary … Continue reading
Borrowing someone else’s column concept when they write for another publication is called stealing. Borrowing someone else’s column concept when they co-host a podcast with you is called synergy, or in this case: Ellipsis, a series of semi-coherent hockey thoughts, 141-characters or more in length, all separated by a mere three dots… Not to say … Continue reading
Ellipses may sound like the title of some horrible Rush album, but it’s actually a series of semi-coherent hockey thoughts, 141-characters or more in length, all separated by a mere three dots… Ken Hitchcock deserves all the credit in the world for turning around the Blues’ season aroud, but the fact that St. Louis currently … Continue reading
It has been a rough season for the Habs and their fans so the boys decided it’s time to drown their sorrows with “The Two-Four presents The Drink Away Your Habs Sorrows Podcast” ©. And you can play along at home too: The Montreal Bias in no way encourages you to play this game. Alcohol … Continue reading
When PK Subban shook off Ryan Whitney to then hit Max Pacioretty with a pass leading to MaxPac’s 30th goal of the season in the dying seconds of Thursday night’s game, the dark clouds that have hung over the Habs organization throughout this disastrous season suddenly seemed a little brighter. And it wasn’t just because … Continue reading
Despite not having lived at home since I was 19 (I’m now 32), I seem to have a never ending pile of old boxes at my mother’s house. After 12 years, she is putting her foot down and making me go through them, so last Sunday it begun and I found a treasure chest of … Continue reading
Sometimes something from above interferes and delivers a miracle. With the Habs up 4-1, losing the lead (again) and heading to shootout, I honestly believed that if Devin Setoguchi had not somehow tripped, he would have scored and the 4th round would not have gone in the Habs favour. It was a hockey miracle. Three … Continue reading
Because there is no better time to introduce a new gimmick for a column than with 17 games left in the regular season, submitted for your approval are a series of semi-coherent thoughts, 141 characters or more in length, all separated by a mere three dots… Stat-heads will tell you that goal differential is the … Continue reading
I hate starting movie reviews with a synopsis. I find that it’s such a waste of space. So let’s put it this way. The movie, “Goon” is about a goon that gets a lucky break and earns himself a regular spot on a minor league hockey team. There`s swearing, blood, violence, and an actual scene … Continue reading
It’s the rarest of podcasts… one recorded on February 29th. Drawing comparisons to the Desharnais, Cole and Pacioretty line; Alex, Sean and Zach provide a rare bright spot in this dismal Habs season… or something like that. Just listen to this podcast, they say era alot and Alex kind of reviews The Iron Lady. The … Continue reading
