Carbo: goddammitt...that peice of steak is still stuck in my teeth
Komisarek: mmmmmm look at Johnsons' fine thighs...he must work out
JOhnson: to himself "look away mikey look away" Pheonix doesnt look too bad right about now.
Perizoghin: I miss my mommy
Lapierre: One day.....just one day i shall be on that big screen up there
Dandenault: Maybe if i close my eyes...this will all go away....yes....maybe
That being said, im very frustrated with the way the habs are playing, i give props to carbo for finally raising the tone with the players. Im not angry with their loss, like many of you im angry at the way they lose. too many turn overs, too many heartless plays and definitly too many missmatches.
One thing carbo has to do is try the same setup for at least 2 or 3 games. even if we wont produce much the first time, the best results come with experience. Shuffling the lines like that every game is surely not the way to go. I for one believe that for now Kovalev should stay with koivu and ryder , we know theve played well together before, kovy is going through a slump i think that could help.
In terms of Samsonov, i for one am probably one of the few who likes him. I definitly agree that he is underachieving this year but i dont think its completely because of lack of effort. Flaming him like that every two days is not going to get anything done. If we arent satisfied with him then trade him, but bashing him from now until that day will get nothing done. That being said i agree with carbo to bench him, whether or not it was intentional he has not produced much later, maybe this bench will flame him up again. But when he gets interviewed u can feel the pressure we have put on him and what im very angry with is the fact that people started flaming him after his 3rd game with the habs.......what do u expect?? At that times talks of a trade were already roaming around...not a good way to start a relationship with a team. Yes i also agree he is payed to produce, but again smashing and bashing him will get nothing done. I really hope he bounces back, and if he doesnt well we will never know how much the pressure of playing in montreal really affected his play.
Guys we really have to support our team through thick and thin, most of you already do that, but unfortunately there are tons of people who turn on their team at the first sign of weekness, ive never heard such reactions in other teams. No big player will ever want to come play here if we keep bashing and burning our players like that.
Tricolore Jusqu'au Bout
