How great is it to be a Montréal Canadiens fan, especially one who loves great goaltending, something the Habs have claimed to fame for decades. The best the game has ever had betwixt the pipes have played in our team's crease. Hainsworth, Plante, Vezina, Durnan, Dryden, Worsley, Roy, Esposito, Theodore, Vachon, Halak, Price and others. Some stayed for while, some left abruptly, some of their choice, some not. They all gave and still give us moments of pure joy watching save after save after ridiculously skilled save. Our second-latest hero, Jaroslav Halak was spectaCHular and took us further than expected in last year's playoffs. Merci encore Jaro. The team was then faced with moving or losing one or having the goalie controversy boil over into this season. They chose TFS™. The right CHoice. Thanks Bob and Tim. Price's play proves the decision was the proper one. Let's ride him!

Goalies for sale or rent
Dmen to let...fifty cents
No foe, no fool, just nets
TFS™ ain't got no cigarettes.
Ah,… two hours of pushin' broons
Buys a 32nd win versus the goons
TFS™'s a man of means by his team
King of the road.
Third wheel?, midnight trade
Destination … St. Louis, made.
Playoff worn out glove and pad,
Made the fucking Pens and Caps mad,
His smoking' save stories almost Cup bound
Short, but PHI was too big to pound
Jaro's was a man of means for that team
King of the road.
The trade was Goat-engineered, he can't take no blame
Took two of their prospects, Lars & Ian their names
And every FHFan in every town
Loves what Lego is bringing down
We love how his game has come around.
I sing,
Goalies for sale or rent
Pants! to let, FHFifty cents

@moe - thanks for the change of direction
Go Habs Go
I hope Jaro will enjoy his ovation tonight!
Now GYMFHG!
yay hockey! yay sexy hitCHhikers! nice work moe i think we all need a game to enjoy
GYFCHG
Canadian dollar down $0.72 on Chara hit. Will rebound if Habs do.
@moeman great as usual, you need to get a band to cover all these songs
Definitely looking forward to tonight's game. Also, curling is amazing.
Anyone old enough to remember IRC? Anyone nerdy enough to still use it?
Also also, @moeman, great preview, embedded pictures were very relevant to the topic at hand. =P
I want to see a 1 to 0 Shoot out victory for Montreal with Lego getting the winner.
"NHL COMMISSIONER: HIT WAS HORRIFIC BUT PART OF THE GAME"
WTF is a weasel midget knows about the game? Can you remotely imagine the Buttman putting on a pair of skates? I can only hope that the mess he's created in Phoenix will cost him his job, for the incompetent little head shaking venereal disease that he is.
great post Moe and GYMFHG.
fuck you Buttman, Colon, Big Shaved Baboon, Anon.
Part of the game? Ok Bettman, now please go back to your gig as Count von Count on Sesame Street
Ugh. Now this.
@ezz
Hell ya I remember IRC...don't use it anymore though. Is it still used???
Bettman is an ass hat.
@Hadulf: Definitely still up and running. It's a fantastic thing, I just haven't had success in finding a hockey channel. Anyone interested in putting FHF on IRC?
Open letter from Geoff Molson
Thx ezz, that letter is a great start. Hopefully there is some follow through.
Geoff, we know you read this blog, thanks for the letter, merci beaucoup pour ton message positif et comme tu dit, Go You Fucking Habs Go!
Quote maCHine;
Coach Jacques Martin is encouraging his team to focus on the task at hand - playing St. Louis - and Price seems to be all in favour of that. Playing down the matchup against his former teammate, Price tells the Montreal Gazette: "He got traded. That was the end of him being my teammate. You hope for the best for him, but I'm not concerned with what he's doing in another conference."
Go Geoff. I wonder if the Gillette would have done that. Doubt it. It's really time to clear house at the NHL. Horrific injuries are NOT part of the game.
Hello everyone at FHF,
We will do everything in our power to make this right.
Thank you for your support of Max.
Geoff
GYFHG
@Geoff M. - sorry, this board is reserved for anonymous trolls from Beantown, and their feeders. Your handle is also suspiciously close to a regular commentator, "Not Geoff Molson", so cut that out.
Now, if you were the real Geoff M., I would say thanks very much, that's a small step in the right direction (which is kind of an amazing accomplishment from an owner, dontcha think?)
Want to focus on tonight's game but the PatCHes issue is too big to not keep up.
Many Canadian companies that sponsor the NHL are commenting.
PatCHes out of the hospital. Convalescing at home.
Whoa, did I just see an anon comment be deleted?
Unlike the short commish, Monsieur Molson know what the game and hockey plays are.
Thank you for your letter, our thoughts are with Max and his family.
Go Habs Go.
ps. next time you meet with little Gary, could you give him several little taps on top of the head? Thank you.
Thinking about this some more, the Air Canada communications guy who sent out that letter had the right idea if you want to get something done (even though it sounds like it's gonna get him fired).
I think trying to go after Bettman et al on a legal basis is just going to get him to dig in and hire more lawyers (and the NHL make enough dough to hire a few decent ones).
The trick is to figure out a way to hit him in the wallet - that will get his attention, where he might not notice if you kicked him in the nuts, say.
I don't think there's much hope of organizing a proper fan boycott, but maybe you could apply pressure to corporate sponsors. Let's see, who's a big NHL sponsor? Honda? hmm. Wait a minute, isn't there a big beer company that just signed a big marketing agreement with the NHL? umm, never mind. Guess we just need to get the torches and pitchforks out.
And now a word from the NHLPA
Reaction on Twitter re:NHLPA's release:
@bruce_arthur: BREAKING: The NHLPA to investigate role of ice in the Bertuzzi-Moore altercation.
@bruce_arthur: Next: The NHLPA decides to gather information on the role of physics in this unfortunate situation.
shoulder pads will not be required for tonights canadiens/blues game-the remainder of all canadiens contests will be shinny games...no checking or being mean
Love that song Moe!
Our boy has been released from the hospital, PTL.
I don't want to go on and on about it, but in the office next to me lurks a Bruin's fan. He was absolutely thrilled about the gong show that happened in Boston last month.
Yesterday after I ripped him a new one, he says "When you're down 4-0 you have to hurt someone, it's just the way it is. It seems to be the team and fans belief system. He was dead serious when he said it.
So there really is not point in arguing with them, they're heathens.
Let's get the two points tonight.
GYFHG!!!!
K, I'm out, catch up with you wonderful people later tonight.
GYFHG!!!
@Anon, Youre really a dumb fuck. If you want to be right, come on here and tell us that we're late to the party about headshots, that we only really start caring when it happens to our team, cause we didn't make a big deal about the savard situation and whatever else. Don't, however, try to defend Zdeno. What he did was illegal and caused serious injury; that's enough for a conviction in criminal court.
Now go pick up marchand's teeth from the bell centre ice and stop whining about us not being physical enough to break through sheet glass with our necks
apparently not strong enough to move a stantion/turnbuckle either....illegal? if somehow it got to court it would be laughed out immediately....i cant imagine how you guys would react if something truly bad happened. just cry under the covers for a few days?
Illegal in terms of hockey, dipshit. He did something against the rules (interference) and it resulted in a serious injury. No matter how you slice that, he was wrong and deserved some sort of punishment.
But, more importantly, how the fuck do you decide that the habs are somehow not physical, when we had more hits than you in the game (22 to 20, look it up http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20102011/ES020996.HTM)
Geoff Molson - Thanks for the letter of support. From the heart and a nice corporate "fuck you" to Bettman & Cie.
@Geoff M - if you're the real Mr. Molson, thanks for taking the time to stop by here.
I hope Air Canada calls the NHL's bluff and pulls the sponsorship - I'd give up my price sensitivity and fly them exclusively in Canada if they did this.
Maybe if I have time on the weekend I'll write Tim Horton's as a shareholder (not a lot, but still) telling them I'm pissed off with the current state of goonery in the NHL, and hope that they take a stand against it.
Always wondered , finally googled, 22 games!
Is Ogie Oglethorpe available for the next game vs the Bs?
Hi its Steve said, who did I piss off now, my google account is fucked, and I get all these Gitmo travel brouchers in the mail.
@Moeman always loved Gaston Gringras
@Geoff Molson, fucking Eh, but what about a forifet against Boston, cause bUTTMAN is going to tell you for the umptemth time, Americans can not find Montreal on a map.
Steve said, I am done with sergio he treats me like Chara.
Hey FHF was that big Geoff, cause I would like to think it was. Now consular I can not divalge that info, but to the best of my infromation, the new board of the Montreal Canadians has a standing order for meth ice cream.
OK STOP FEEDING THAT PHUCK!
Thanks to Mr. Molson showing some public support.
I got an email today from a leaf fan who said Maxpac was a diver like Claude Lemieux and Mickey Ribs. Two Bruins fans claim it was a great and totally legal play. I can't believe how stupid some people are including that creepy anon troll hanging around here. For Christ's sake he BROKE THE GUY'S NECK!! What don't you understand about that? Anyway, I told those fools I have no time for their foolishness. Chara is guilty. He got away with it Good for him. And that arrogant little schmuck Bettman, I'd like to kick his ass.
If the real Mr. Molson does read this blog, good for you sir, to take a stand against the NHL American biased establishment. Don't let them get away with this travesty of justice. Make sure Max gets good legal counsel and make Chara and the league sweat a little over this at least.
Now, lets all enjoy a good hockey game without it being tainted by halfwit morons from Boston.
Jesus Christ weeps, did I cross the line?
CHicken takes PatCHes spot.
Our boys on a 5 game tear and Halak tonight, we should be in ecstasy and talking about these things. Unfortunately we've been forced to think about other things. Max out of hospital, terrific news. Let's focus on winning more games, surpassing those boston bastards and embarrassing the NHL and it's dictator by winning the whole show.
I liked the idea others stated of boycotting the next game in Boston, but I have a better idea. We all know lots of Habs fans will be there. More should try to get in. Then litter the ice with debris as much as possible. It'll result in a penalty to Boston, and if enough is done it'll end in a forfeit for the home team. Someone could also bring a vat of pig's blood and dump it on the bruin bench, but that may just be a fantasy of mine.
Frankly, with this issue and Halak it's becoming a bit emotional to be a Habs fan.
GO HABS GO!
HOCKEY WOOOO!!!!!!
Well, fellow FHFers, it's all been said. Let's keep Max in the back of our minds and look forward to the final 15 starting now with what should be an entertaining game against Jaro.
DCD!!!
I know that Health care in Canada is like drop your baby in the waiting room please and if you leave real quick parking will be under $100.
But being an American and a Montreal Canadian for sure Patches got the royal treatment. So for the rest of history every citizen of Canada must pay him $11 a year. Sorry that the Queen and her assortment of pure gene and bastards. What I was thinking is Patches is doing alright. Get well soon, fuck I hope you come back for the playoffs, and I hope its against Boston fucks, and Matt Damon is in the stands.
Seriously, I really like Matt Damon, except for True Grit, WTF.
oh DDD. looks like we have some jump at least
Win this for Patches!
But honestly I'm in the "I really don't care right now" mood. Especially after the shit I heard tonight from Bettman, Fehr, and a whole gamut of asshats...
Oh yea, the protest will be next home game at the Bell Center. I'll be handing out paper bags with Patchy's number on it for fans to wear to symbolize the NHL's "see nothing, hear nothing, don't give a damn" stance.
what a weak call
heh, collie must be wired to the ref.
refs still jobbing us
not even cotact
Colon Moe, Colon, cause he's full of you know what
Halakian save by Price.
What a save!!! Carey, Carey, Carey!!!
Good one ti-cul. I use the 'collie' as he is nothing but bettman's de-balled, leashed dog. Apologies to Lassie.
If you can bear the shite that it contains, go read the Bettmann statement and count the number of outright lies and implied falsehoods. The "man" is, simply, not worthy of hatred, never mind anything higher.
And I use the term "man" based on genetics only and no observed behavioural traits.
Important part of the post: Get Well Max.
bruins couldn't even go 3 minutes without starting a fight against Buffalo tonight. Animals. Chara with a boarding penalty. Hopefully his victim isn't in hospital.
Aie-yi-yi, brunet just use d the word 'fluide'. Turning point?
But he sure serves the same purpose, no less no more. Butman's colon?
I'm late but... hope the boys can pull together and win. Do it for Max. Also, letter from Geoff Molson? NHLPA statement? I've got some catching up to do.
GYFHG!
Komisuckadick with a dirty hit tonight. It's like a free for all out there (the league) now.
Pouliot really has to do something. We're all looking at him to be somewhat of a bandaid solution to Pacioretty....
That's if he can remain on his skates and actually see the man open on the other side of the net.
Sigh.
IRiRi, forget the NHLPA comment, it, is, worthless. Now that I have saved you some time, send the streaking video, iPronto.
I dont care the D,Agnosi is the best player ever in the last week for the Blues I dont want him. There is no piece of the blues I would trade for Lego.
Saw Dou$harek's penalty, cuz tsn showed it 8 times in 1min33secs. As empty-headed and turncoated as he is, not worthy of the game misconduct.
@orangeman what yu got three screens going, if you start your own sports network I will look for free links.
@Orangeman:
Chara's boarding penalty was another unnecessary hit in a dangerous place - shoved Steve Montador from behind, so that he hit headfirst into the end boards.
But it was just a hockey play, Chara would never do anything dirty.
Halpern!!!
Captain PiCHard to CHallah!
The Jew!
Good effort Halak!
CHalpern!
YESSSSSSSSS
Halpern will be the net-presence.
Hey the good work Halpern, but Captian Picard holly fuck. He looked like Tim Horton
The Blues jersey truly sucks. Way too dark and not shiny enough. (I know, I'm gettin' old).
@moe - iM working on it!
Too late. I read it. INSPECTING THE RINK?! Christ.
I meant CHrist.
iRiRi, if you need help, send me the raw footage and I'll provide some expert editing help.
Who put the CH sweaters on the Pitsburg Penquins, CHanabis, positive vibration,
@Steve: I'm a master at multi-tasking. I'm also quliting a blanket, taking part in a high stakes poker game and running for mayor for a small Norwegian city at the moment. It's one of the benefits of multiple personality disorder.
Steve, fix the tyops or pass the dutCHie, or both.
You know how they say time heals all wounds. First of course, I really hope that's true for Max and we see him back on skates.
But the other thing is I'm generally the most laid back guy you'd ever meet. Nothing can rattle me. Until now. I've been angry for two fucking days. And I don't see it going away anytime soon. And I blame that fucking little midget arsehole and his asshat assistant. It wasn't the shaved ape's decision not to suspend himself. Don't get me wrong. I fucking hate him too, showing not a fucking ounce of remorse, but he's not the reason for my continuing anger. Maybe if we could shove Bettman up Chara's ass, hang a giant sling shot off of the Big O's penis and blast the pair into orbit, I'd feel better.
Sorry, needed to vent a bit.
Late, but WOO! Halpern!
Jesus Price, TFS plan the parade
since CHicken's been moved, he's really playing like shit
pressure must be getting to him.
he's not working on that line
(I actually typed that before BB's similar comment)
ack
crap
Faceoffs. You suck at them.
well considering what this team's been through, a 1-1 tie is ok
At least Chocula is still into the Chanabis system and did not put TITs into the Mexican Prison. And what beats a Mexican, Giant Chicken Line.
Ok, I said this earlier, but I thought I would bring it up again for no particular reason.
After the Habs lost a 2 goal game in Boston the media declared that the bruins had the Hab's number and we were hopeless against them and our future was dark, etc. So the guys beat the bruins handily, the game was never in question even as they skated half dazed in the 3rd and our guy wins the only fight and there is silence on the issue. Given, there are bigger things to talk about right now, but I tend to believe the only reason the media (who would love to forget this incident, being NHL apologists) keep talking about it is to avoid how stupidly wrong they were before.
Steve, I'm being blunt but two 'n's in CHannabis. Roll a FHFattie.
WTF did Lego have draped over his shoulder, it looked like a towel from some kind of long bankrupt motel.
@Moeman, tell Microsoft to put it into the spell check or otherwise I am illiterate.
Good stuff 0-man.
Francois Gagnon brings up a good point about the head-up-ass Boston media hacks that are patting bettman and murphy for an honest and just (non) decision. Same hacks that freaked on the (non) decisions in the Savard and Bergeron blatant and sickening hits. Must be the water.
Steve, whilst spellCHecking 'babysitter' in MS software I get kidnapper, so thats nice.
Speaking of colon campbell, denis 'lunkhead' gauthier's stylist needs to tell his client that a brown tie, brown shirt and brown suit, looks shitty. Also, stop with the hand jive.
Half-way to meth-laced ice cream and if we miss it by 2 comments, blame Anon.
Kudos to Geoff Molson for speaking out. I love this team and am so proud to be a fan.
The Blues broadcast team all support attempted murder, I guess.
Lars Eller isn't so good on the mic. He needs a WWF style manager.
ouCH
I promise to give out the meth ice cream even if we make it only to 198. Boston anon will not fuck us over
FUCK. ugly giveaway
Goddammit POULIOT IS FUCKING KILLING ME!
i was thinking during the intermission that I'm not really in the mood for hockey.
and neither are the Habs it seems
I'd forgotten all about the bonehead giveaways
Habs' heads are elsewhere. CHicken's is up his own ass
The system is not in its glory tonight. giveaways, odd man rushes. At least Mara doesn't have to check his Chocula manual to throw a punch. and ....
Chara, the reputedly clean player gets 5 and a game and follows up the next night with boarding. Won't help when he gets sentenced.
Same bea...
It's on in the background. Frankly I just feel sick right now.
Can you believe those imbeciles in Boston applauded Chara when he first touched the puck tonight?! *pukes*
Nice to see the PP is back to being embarrassingly pathetic.
iRiRi,
Fuck the Booins.
SHOOT FOR FUCKS SAKE MEXICAN
Well, Chara did just put a puck into his own net. They certainly weren't cheering that.
@31 - Amen.
I want to give the guys hugs. Seriously. They look like they need it.
Price is just looking at them with a "c'mon guys, we have to win this" look.
Wiz has a concussion from the hit from behind. Get him out of there. Damn stupid tough guy shit shortens careers.
@31,
Agree. Let's not waste anymore oxygen on them tonight.
Read this and weep;
"Jolly Joe Thornton is not prone to creating controversy, but he waded into some dicey territory Thursday when asked about the lack of discipline for Boston Bruins defenceman Zdeno Chara.
Asked what reflected worse on the league -- Chara’s hit on Montreal’s Max Pacioretty, or the lack of further discipline – the San Jose Sharks centre suggested the Bruins get favourable rulings from the NHL.
“It’s just something with Boston,” Thornton said. “It just seems like they have a horseshoe. We’ve seen the [Milan] Lucic cross-check to the head [of Maxim Lapierre] earlier, and there’s no disciplinary thing.
“It’s just something about Boston and the disciplinary [process] is on their side. I’m not sure why that is. I’m not assuming that Colin’s kid is on the team and that’s why, but it’s really bizarre.”
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/
FFS. C'mon boys.
I'm having visions of a real chicken running around with it's head up it's ass, might be more entertaining & productive than Pouliot right now.
Chicken Thursday.
Oh come on, CHicken. Ugh.
@fuckhead anon - if you dont think we're not deleting every comment you make from now on you don't know me very well. go away.
Stephen Brunt on bettman: "Petulance in the face of criticism and pressure: that’s the measure of the man."
ok that's a lot of good kills. DO SOMETHING WITH IT
wow they're actually showing a bit of life
ok decent couple of minutes. 20 minutes to score a goal boys. ONE GOAL. FOR PATCHES
DD waited way too long to shoot. Perfect opportunity.
Price really wants this win but I don't know if his teammates can do it tonight... They're way too slow on the rebounds and only Eller's line really seems capable (again).
CHocula has benched CHicken for less. He's having a bad game but he isn't the only one. GYFHG!
http://twitter.com/MaxPacioretty67
sabres beat bruins in OT.
that's 2 games in a row the lose.
after leading 2-0?
that already makes me feel better
now if the bas can all get on the same page for the 3rd.
their heads still look elsewhere. not that i blame them. we could use some competence
i swear mexican just petteded Jaro and said good job after that save
Blues are a good home team. Looks like they have a system.
anonymous, i dont delete a legitimate comment. im no nazi. you want to be civil? stick around. even though no one wants you. you want to call us pussies and be a child? i'll delete you. wrap your dull-headed boston brain around that
or moeman will delete you anonymous. even better.
everything else aside, they're playing a non-playoff team that played last night. Put a bit more elbow grease into it.
If we win we're within 1 point of a team I refuse to name because they're not worthy.
Go Habs!
VW - clara FFS.
ok ill think about it maybe get back to you tomorrow
9 minutes to score ONE GOAL. FOR PATCHES FFS
SCORE
A
GOAL
And ffs SHOOT HIGH! IT'S JARO! YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS!!!
Their heads are up their collective asses. The best thing they can do for their wounded teammate is win games.
TFS JUST SAVED YOUR ASSES. DO SOMETHING
Price is keeping us in this game.
for a change he seems to be the only one actually playing to win tonite. Must be lonely for him
I miss typing PleXXXe!
TFS the only one playing. ugh
So they're down by 1 and I honestly don't remember the last time they got a SOG.
Well this just goes to prove that we traded the wrong goalie.
there's one oman. first one of the period
STILL TIME BOYS WAKE UP
RDS is reminding us that we will be drinking in the early afternoon Saturday. NTTIAWWT!
ah crap.
She's wrote.
Gotta give Dags credit.
well there goes that game
Well, that's that.
Saw that coming...
Just way to flimsy by the Habs.
They tried, but their minds are elsewhere.
Mex looked super pissed.
Crap!
Okay boys time to regroup for Saturday.
It pisses me off when they blow a game that Price gives them every chance to win. Grrrr. Okay, we'll give them a pass for tonight. No excuse on Saturday though.
Was that really necessary?
That was useless.
Y'know I don't even care right now. I'm in the process of readjusting what this league means to me.
But I'm just saddened that the guys couldn't put together a better game for their fallen teammate. No effort or drive tonight. Story of the season for this team. You really never know which team you're going to get on any given night.
I look forward to a 5 game losing streak.
Meh. Kinda understandable. Kinda frustrating. On to the next one.
Bonsoir mes ami(e)s.
iRiRi, .zip that vid iPronto.
This is such a nice blog when it's filled with funny civilized courteous people.
& friendly of course.
poor max. It must be embarrasing to wake up in the hospital and hear how your dumbass fans are acting.
