Habs quick links for game day
Apr 23rd
I really can’t wait for tonight’s game. I’m not sure if I should be pessimistic or optimistic to be honest… but, I’m currently leaning more towards the optimistic voice in me.
In recent years, I’ve decided to try and be the most optimistic person I can be. This way, I won’t prematurely close any doors that may be open.
The Washington Capitals can be beat. There is no doubt in my mind. However, the team that’s gonna beat them need to be disciplined. No bad penalties. And they need to play solid defense as a team…. as a unit. Which is something the Canadiens haven’t always done well this season but they have for stretches in this series.
Give the Washington Capitals an inch and they run you over.
Here’s a few quick links I enjoyed this morning.

Habs bits of the week
Nov 10th
Thought I would highlight a few articles that I read over the last week.
Price/Halak – The Stats – October 2009
by Chris Boyle for Eyes on the Prize
This is a great article on the goaltender statistics and it cuts through to the bare facts.
Chris does a great analysis of the shots both Halak and Price have faced will visual graphs displaying where the shots were taken from as well as the save percentage per area.
Really worth the read!

AND
UPDATES: Walsh controversy
by Rocket for All Habs
The night that I wasn’t on Twitter at all (you can find me on twitter at @yves_on_habs) there was a bit of controversy as Halak’s agent Mr Allan Walsh tweeted a comment about Carey Price’s stats. If you want the whole story please read the articles on the All Habs blog!
Well written and described.
Learning to live without Markov
by Topham for Lions in Winter
This article contains some numbers showing just what the team’s play has been like when Markov has been out. Some interesting numbers in this article and if you thought Markov was an important player the team’s most important player this article might provide proof of his value through the last few seasons.
Andrei, I miss you!
