2. Zebras would be a mistake for Montreal. They need someone that can play against other teams top 6.

3. The habs are playing like…well, toilet seats!
   🤪😂😂

4. Great Video, as usual, Mike. I'd like your input about will The Maurice Extension be A Curse on him Coaching them to A Second Stanley Cup? Let me know what you think (PS. I'm not a believer of Curses, but, I think that Expectations Are Usually Hightened After These Extensions – e.g. The Mike Sullivan In Pittsburgh).

5. I think Martin St Louis' shelf life is gonna be short in MTL. Last I checked his winning % was in the .370's. He'll help some young players develop. The question is, does he have the coaching experience that coaches acquire through the grind of the chl/ahl? I hope for his sake that systems improve including special teams as players grow into their roles. Bleak times ahead for now.

6. Great report, Mike!
   Re: Habs:
   1. I'm a diehard, lifelong Habs fan.
   2. I'm losing faith in MSL…while he's been helpful to the young players and is a "player's coach" I'm not convinced any longer that he's the best coach to take the team to the next level. Habs need a bonefide knowledgeable coach like Joel Quennville. I'd like to see the Habs go after him NOW!!!
   3. Re: "WIFI": He's not being used properly. The guy has untapped, raw talent that needs to be DEVELOPED, and he can't develop sitting on the bench. They need to play him, teach him to play responsible "D", and to pace himself with the fights. Pick his spots where it doesn't put the team in a hole. I'm a huge Xhekaj fan and believer. Habs need to either develop him or trade him.
   4. Habs got whacked by the Rangers tonight!!!! They looked BAD!!!! Something isn't working here. I was quite optimistic before the season started, but Laine's injury seemed to be an eerie harbinger of problems to come. Habs look terrible tonight, and it's going to be a long season if the GM & coaching staff can't find some answers!!!! Don't wait!!! Make changes NOW or it'll be over & done by XMas.

7. if habs are not going to play number 72 then trade him for a player that will improve size wise and with a heart to work hard. several teams would like to have number 72 do not give him away he has a value . Or time to let the sheriff play. how many more players are going to be injured this season?

8. Xhekaj is a bottom 6 dman, not a healthy scratch dman.

9. Zegras is too soft, not at all what Montreal needs. Xhekaj and Dach for Zegras is a horrible idea, i wouldn't trade either one for him straight up! Both is beyond retarded!

10. the habs have fallen and cant get up.!!! baby steps,hahaha!!!

11. Move him to the wing on the fourth line

12. Would love to see Dylan Cozens in Montreal. Great young C who wins alot of draws and he won't cost a ton

13. Savard, Matheson, Guhle, Hutson, Mailloux, are probably the only guarantees to try and keep longterm.

14. Martin St. Louis got to go sorry to say that, but he’s not the right man for the job he has no clue as a coach

15. If anyone’s got to go is the cost, St. Louis

16. Arbor has a tougher job satisfying the media than the team. When Ottawa goes headhunting and Xhekaj counters by buzzing Stutzles tower then he is criticized for undisciplined play and taking a bad penalty! When Dumbass levels Barron, well why wasn't Arbor on the bench. If Arbor was in the game would Dumbass still decked Barron…Yes! If Arbor went after him, guess what, undisciplined again !
