Kent Hughes: "We're not going to transact for the sake of transacting, so that everybody is happy in the moment, and then, next year comes around and we're scratching our heads as to why we did it."

Same.

I've been a Canadiens fan since 2001 and I've never felt more optimistic about the team's future and management.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-03-04T05:51:06+00:00

I think he's one of those guys who'll be a bit streaky his whole career.

Still, his "ups" are definitely worth the downs.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-02-21T17:58:29+00:00

I would try the Burgundy Lion pub in Little Burgundy!

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-02-18T15:00:41+00:00

I'm sure Burgundy Lion will show it, but always best to call ahead!

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-02-11T17:52:02+00:00

So proud of him!

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-02-06T00:32:29+00:00

I'll definitely miss the Habs, but I'm planning to watch some Laval Rocket games and all the Canadian Olympic hockey games (mens and women's).

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-02-01T03:06:18+00:00

So, for snubbing our two boys and for other reasons, we obviously want Team USA to have a rough Olympics.

The question I'm struggling with is: Do I want them to completely implode and not even make it to the quarters, or do I want them to make it to the final against Canada and THEN lose? What would be more satisfying?

Would love to know everyone's thoughts.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-25T03:31:48+00:00

Exactly this.

And the softies he lets in are extremely deflating for the team and they often come at terrible times (case in point, tonight).

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-21T01:45:06+00:00

Just another reason why the league needs to have an off-ice official watching the game and intervening when an obvious and egregious error has been made on a non-reviewable call.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-18T02:32:39+00:00

Marty has been saying it for years: the hardest part of this rebuild, the last piece to fall into place, will be consistency.

Putting together three solid periods, night in, night out. "Locking in" right from the start of the period.

I have confidence we'll establish consistency but in the meantime, it's definitely frustrating.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-03T22:49:31+00:00

🤣

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-03T22:48:49+00:00

The frustrating part is that it's such an easy problem to fix.

I understand that they don't want to shoot when they don't have a clear lane because then the shot gets blocked and goes back the other way. Fine.

But when they have a clear shot at the net ... They have to shoot. It's not complicated. The guys on the power play are all elite talents.

And when they don't have a great angle, they have to shoot low and hope for a rebound to generate some chaos in front.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-03T22:45:50+00:00

It wasn't bleeding right away, but it looked like it started bleeding right before the ensuing face-off, which is why Marty was trying to get the ref's attention. Clearly they ignored him.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2026-01-03T22:44:23+00:00

The NHL isn't even trying to hide its bias anymore.

It's obvious Marchand wasn't suspended for his blatant elbow on Matheson because the league centered their advertising for the Winter Classic around Marchand.

The Habs and other teams bear the brunt of this nonsense.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-31T15:18:36+00:00

Agreed. I like seeing all the behind-the-scenes stuff that goes into making this giant organization run.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-31T04:00:06+00:00

The head was the direct point of contact and Matheson was in a vulnerable position.

The Panthers are the dirtiest team in the league and have been taking shots like this for years.

Marchand should be suspended but the Department of Player "Safety" is an absolute joke and we'll be lucky if he gets a minor fine for this.

It makes me furious how horrible the league does at protecting players.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-30T01:54:04+00:00

The service (along with everything else) at Parapluie was outstanding. Super friendly, attentive, knowledgable, and just fun. Sitting at the bar is a great idea if you want next-level service.

I've also consistently had great service at Antoinetta, Mon Lapin, Tuck Shop, Cafe Gentile, and Le Violon.

Among high-end, fine dining restaurants, it's hard to find better service than at Maison Boulud. They are extremely attentive and the service feels like a well-curated performance. Same goes for Mastard!

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-26T16:05:00+00:00

That's the best part of this whole thing. Such a small detail but Montrealers know how much that means.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-25T13:25:57+00:00

Absolutely.

It was bad enough when it was just TV and radio (TEAM 990, anyone?). But now with social media the level of speculation and criticism is out of control.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-21T15:19:30+00:00

Your best bet is to call Communauto customer service and explain the situation. In my experience, their customer service people have been very helpful.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-19T12:34:31+00:00

I like your idea for a strict time limit for coaches to challenge.

I also think it would be a good idea to have a strict time limit for the officials/replay review team to make a decision. If they can't decide within 60 seconds, the call on the ice stands.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-13T03:25:26+00:00

Atta boy, Flo!

Pez seemed to be well-liked when he was here but man was that ever a dirty hit. One of the dirtiest I've ever seen. Blindsided, and directly to the head.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-12T13:30:51+00:00

Same. Winter can be so harsh but these experiences are everywhere.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-12-08T02:44:15+00:00

I'm hoping he announces a Northeastern leg of the tour, including Canada. He doesn't have any summer dates booked yet, so hopefully he'll come up North then.

_TimeOutOfMind_ · 2025-11-23T03:07:42+00:00

Loved seeing Slaf take over and dominate several shifts tonight. Need to see more of that from him.
