2009/2010 and the new Georges Laraque
Sep 13th
When I had heard that Gainey had signed Georges Laraque to a 3 year deal last year, I was thrilled.
I had seen the Montreal Canadiens get pushed around a bit too much for my liking and I was sure that Laraque would provide some of the much needed toughness that was plaguing the team the few previous years.

Rookie camp 2009 – Martin thinks young players could play key role
Sep 8th
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, just because I mean it. I’m excited for this upcoming season and it’s great to see the reports coming out of the rookie camps. It satisfies part of my desire to see some Habs hockey.
Watching a report on RDS, it’s interesting to listen to Jacques Martin and the RDS analysts. Martin really seems to leave the door open for any number of young players…. from Chipchura, D’Agostini, Pacioretty.. to Maxwell, Latendress, the Kostitsyns, Lapierre… he goes on to say that any number of these young players could have an important role in the Montreal Canadiens lineup this year.

2009 Habs Rookie camp is underway
Sep 7th
The new hockey season is now so very close. If you’re anything like me at this time of the year seeing your favorite hockey jerseys being worn in practice is…. well… satisfying… a bit.
Although it’s just rookie camp every year the veterans are also starting to get warmed up.
I love seeing clips of the young guys going through the drills and catching a glimpse of some future roster players.
