patrice-brisebois Stories - Jewels From The Crown
Kings 2, Canadiens 5
I found myself shaking my head so many times while at Staples that I couldn't even keep count, but it wasn't just because of the Kings. There were so many other things going on in Staples that the viewer could not see on TV that it was amazing! Habs jerseys at every turn, Canadian flags, audible...
Reason #1,334,354 to Ignore Eklund
This is UFA defenceman Mark Streit. He's been credited this season as the catalyst to Montreal's potent powerplay.He's an interesting player, largely because when not on the powerplay he generally plays as a 4th line forward. Defensively, he's a mess. He's been just awful (outside of offence) and a...
Why Brisebois?
Like many other readers who were as caught off guard by this as I was, when I heard that former Canadiens defenseman Patrice Brisebois and Habs GM Gainey were seen having lunch together, all that came to mind were punchlines.Could Brisebois be springing for a Happy Meal to thank Bob for enabling...
Can Patrice Be Price Worthy?
Talk of Patrice Brisebois returning as a Montreal Canadiens has ignited much lively discussion of late, as news has it, an offer from the defenseman sits on Bob Gainey's desk.I didn't initially like the idea, but I'm warming to it. Seemingly nonsensical at first thought, I think I may have figured...
Brisebois Brings More Questions Than Answers
I dreaded having to write this post - trust me!My IP crashed last evening, so I liken this to waking up next to that unattractive stranger of a hundred unfunny jokes and worstcase nightmares, wondering just what let my standards sink so low.So, yikes, it's Patrice Brisebois - round duh!Why couldn't...
Harper And Brisebois, Both Targets Of Boo Birds
Terry Haper was the first player that I ever heard get booed by his own fans! Little did I know then - as a Habs fan who started watching games at age 7 in 1969 - that he's hardly be the last. Perhaps I'm only partially qualified to draw a parallel between one time Canadiens' defenseman Terry...
Habs On A Golf Course
Yes, of course, this usually signifies training camp is about to get underway, but I find seeing Habs players anywhere near a green such an ominous sight.The occasion is always a charity event, but on this day the Habs used the occasion to unveil the new Reebok jersey's.Notice the top picture of...
Lindros A Canadien? Non, Sacré Bleu!
I think some journalists get silly kicks by launching mindless rumours just to see how far they'll fly! The past week has featured a batch of silly hockey related stories, each one getting dumber than the preceding one.But this one is the epitome of stupid.The following comment was posted by...
Make It Or Break It Time
As the Canadiens prepare to meet the Ottawa Senators in tonight's final exhibition contest, it will be do or die time for several hopefuls attempting to make the 2007-08 Habs squad.For certain players on the way up in the organization, it is unlikely that this game represents their last chance. For...
Good, Bad, And Not Too Much Ugly Versus Sens
There are three ways to see things, in occurance with the Canadiens final pre-season matchup against the Senators. I employ the word "see" with journalistic liberty as I didn't get to actually take in the game on televison or online. Catching tonight's contest on radio makes for an odd way to...
