Alex is, oh, let's say like Manny Ramirez - an uncoachable talent who will make you nuts yet come up big in big situations (few people remember that he was second on the Rangers in playoff scoring the year they won the Cup). Let Alex be Alex and he will produce. He's 35 or whatever now, do you think you're REALLY going to teach him something at this point?DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880676919746721073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7320624876513568183.post-2943110603444484712009-02-01T21:25:00.000-05:002009-02-01T21:25:00.000-05:00Apparently Carbo benched Kovalev in the 3rd period...Apparently Carbo benched Kovalev in the 3rd period to "send him a message".<BR/><BR/>Down 2-1 and he benches his best attacker.<BR/><BR/>I think we all know the problem with the Habs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7320624876513568183.post-16904139436094632992009-02-01T20:34:00.000-05:002009-02-01T20:34:00.000-05:00I like those sweaters... though thank god they did...I like those sweaters... though thank god they didn't wear the white shorts like they used to wear in the old days.<BR/><BR/>If Lang is really gone for the season... ugh.

He didn't play much but when he was on, he was good.<BR/><BR/>I missed some of the second and third. Can someone please explain to me why Kovalev just sat on the bench for most of the third. Everytime he went on the ice, Pierre was always like "Kovalef est de retour" and I don't understand where he was returning from.<BR/><BR/>Too bad for Lang. It looked like the guys sakte blade may have clipped his ankle. Achilles?<BR/><BR/>All the habs gotta do to score is go to the net. We saw it against LA. 2 of 3 goals were scored by going to the net. Todays goal was scored because a player went to the net. I don't know whats taking so long to realize that that's what they got to do. That's what D'Agostini's trick was when he first joined the big club.
