It has been confirmed that Carbonneau will stick with Higgins-Koivu-Kovalev line for the first game of the second round tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers. That means that the Kostitsyn brothers will again be centered by Tomas Plekanec. So basically, there are no line or lineup changes expected tonight. The same team that beat Boston in game 7 is what we will be seeing on the ice tonight

It is official!!! Saku Koivu and Francis Bouillon will return to the lineup tonight against the Bruins. This is really good news going in to game 6 of the series tonight in Boston. The Canadiens obviously need a pick-up of some sort and this is it. The return of Koivu should really help out the first line as it gives the Canadiens a much better second line.Go! Habs! Go!

Our wallpaper of the day is a nice montage of Habs rookie standout Guillaume Latendresse. Latendresse is having a great first season in the NHL and should have a bright career ahead of him.

Our wallpaper for today is a cool montage of Habs star defenseman Sheldon Souray. Sheldon is having a career year in goals, assists and points and could very well finish the season as the top scoring defenseman of the league. When was the last time the Habs had a player that was at the top of his position!?! Despite this, some so-called Montreal fans say he isn't worth resigning. That he is a

Our video of the day is a tribute to the Montreal Canadiens. The Habs have been on a downward trend since the end of December. But, they are still in 7th place in the conference and have 25 games to put the ship back on course.

Today's wallpaper photograph is a shot of Alex Kovalev waiting for a face-off during Tuesday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. I have always been a Kovalev fan and supporter, however even I realize it is time for him to step it up. The Canadiens are just 4 points ahead of 9th place in the conference and need to start winning on a more regular basis. To do that, the Habs need Kovalev to put

Our wallpaper of the day is a cool picture of Habs captain Saku Koivu. Koivu is going through a bit of a rough spell right now with the Canadiens, but there is no need to fret. He continues to play hard and give it his all. If anything, Saku could use a couple new line mates to get back on track. Michael "I like eating the puck" Ryder and Chris "I am not 100% since the ankle injury" Higgins also

Our video of the day is a clip from the Thursday night game between Montreal and Pittsburgh. At one point, Colby Armstrong of the Penguins laid out Habs captain Saku Koivu with a massive hit. The hit was clean, but an unwritten rule in hockey says you do not hit the opposing team's star players like that. If a Hab had nailed Sidney Crosby in a similar fashion, you know the Penguins would have

Watching the Habs game this past Saturday from Toronto, I could not help but think that it must suck to be a Leafs player. You had the Canadiens in town. You had the Leafs in complete control of the game. You had the Leafs up 4 to 1. Yet the Toronto fans were dead. They sat on their hands.

On Monday, January 29, the Montreal Canadiens will retire Ken Dryden's number 29 jersey. Dryden easily ranks among the top goaltenders of all time. During his short NHL career, Dryden put up some very impressive statistics: 397 regular season games, 258 victories, 57 losses, 46 shutouts and a 2.24 goals against average. He won the Vezina Trophy an amazing 5 times.Our Ebay item of the day is

Christopher Higgins has become an integral part of the Montreal Canadiens. His game has slowed down somewhat since his ankle injury, but everyone agrees Chris is a star in the making. He is talented in all aspects of the game and takes to heart the success of the Habs.The following "blast from the past" link gives us some insight on Higgins when he signed his first contract with the Canadiens in

One of the most recognized logos in the sports world is that of the Montreal Canadiens. The famous "CH" has been the official emblem of the Habs since 1913.

The Montreal Canadiens are the most successful franchise in professional hockey history. No other team comes close to the Canadiens 24 Stanley Cups. Considering the “Habs” are just under 100 years old that works out to a winning percentage of over 25%!!!Over the years many players, coaches and general managers have been a part of the Canadiens organization.

Coming in to the 2006-07 season, some people were questioning the Habs goaltending situation. Many had doubts that Cristobal Huet could be the goalie he was in the second half of last season. I am an optimist and even I was wondering if the 31-year old Huet was simply a flash-in-the-pan. I am happy to say that Huet has continued on his excellent run. He has played in 35 games this season,

As we relax during the NHL All-Star break, we have time to look back on the first half of the 2006-07 season. The Canadiens have outperformed the expectations of fans and so-called experts everywhere. After 49 games played, our Habs have a record of 27 wins, 17 losses and 5 ties. For the Toronto fans that cannot ad, that works out to 59 points and 4th overall in the Eastern Conference.Guys like

Alex Kovalev is one of the key players in the Montreal Canadiens line-up. Kovalev has the hands of a magician and can do things with the puck that most players can only dream of. Several reporters and fans question his work ethique, but no one questions his talent.Personally, I am not worried about Kovalev's production so far this season. During the last two playoff runs, he has lead the

Our Montreal Canadiens site of the day is RDS.ca.RDS, a French-speaking network, is the Canadiens official broadcaster. They telecast all 82 Habs regular-season games and all playoff games. The RDS website covers all major sports, giving priority to Quebec related news. As far as Canadiens news goes, RDS pretty much offers the best coverage on the Internet as they update their site throughout the

For those of you who have never been to the Bell Centre, this video is for you. It is a very short clip of the Canadiens entrance before a game. The lights are dim, their theme song is blaring, the ice is illuminated with historic images, two kids skate around the ice with flags and the crowd roars as our Habs hit the ice!Unfortunately, RDS is too stupid to share this kind of footage with us when

Today's desktop wallpaper image is a great photograph of Andrei Markov. Markov is a key player in the Habs defensive corps and is an unrestricted free agent at the end of the year.

Our site of the day is Hockey’s Future. This is the best site to check up on the top prospects in the Canadiens farm system and the overall NHL.

Our Ebay.ca item of the day is an autographed Guy Lafleur Montreal Canadiens jersey. Lafleur was one of the most exciting players to ever play in the NHL.Guy won five Stanley cups with the Montreal Canadiens. He became the first player in NHL history to score at least 50 goals and 100 points in six consecutive seasons. He completed his career with 1127 games played, 560 goals, 793 assists, and

The video of the day is a scrap between Francis Bouillon and Darcy Tucker of the Toronto Maple Leafs from earlier this season. Tucker is his usual cowardly self and takes a run at Bouillon but then refuses to throw down the gloves. In our fairytale ending, Tucker's knees buckle when he is hit by just one punch from Bouillon!Link: Francis Bouillon Video (YouTube)

Our Habs site of the day is topix.net. If you are looking for Montreal Canadiens news, then this is the site for you. Topix searches the web for all the most relevant Canadiens information and presents it in an easy to read format. The only drawback is for the French speaking population, as topix does not retrieve French news items. Nonetheless, it is a great site for the serious Habs fan.Link:

The Montreal Canadiens News & Media video of the day is a compilation of clips in honour of Guillaume Latendresse. The introduction is quite funny, as long as you are not insulted by religious overtones. Whether you are a Latendresse fan or detractor, you should get a good laugh out of this video.Link: Guillaume Latendresse Video (YouTube)

Our site of the day is Wikipedia! This may appear to be a strange pick, but Wikipedia has a great Montreal Canadiens page with tons of historic information on the greatest hockey team of all-time. From early franchise history all the way to today, you will find season-by-season records, team captains, hall of famers, retired numbers, draft picks, scoring leaders, NHL awards and trophy winners ...

Our wallpaper photo of the day was taken by me just yesterday afternoon before the Montreal-Tampa Bay game. It is a nice picture, looking towards the sky, of the Bell Centre. You also get a great view of the gigantic Habs poster overlooking the main entrance.

With more than 40 games remaining in the regular season, our Canadiens are still in the hunt for first place in the Northeast Division and the overall Eastern Conference. On January 20th, the Habs will play one of their most important games of the season at the Bell Centre as the first place Buffalo Sabres hit town. These intra-division match-ups are considered 4-point games, so this is a really

Our video for this last day of 2006 is a clip of the best Montreal Canadiens player this past year: Cristobal Huet.

Serge Savard will have his number 18 retired Saturday night. I never had the pleasure of seeing Savard play live, but I have seen video and heard countless stories of his playing career. I think it goes without saying that not only was he one of the greatest defenseman in the history of the Canadiens, but also one of the top General Managers of the franchise. During his playing career, he put up

Well, if you are a Habs fan, tonight’s game was not good for your life expectancy. In fact, this game was almost as bad as the hideous outing we had against Toronto last weekend.To a casual fan glancing at the broadcast tonight, it looked like Florida was continually on the power play. Unfortunately, that was not the case as Montreal only took 6 minor penalties. It was simply the Panthers in

Once again he was especially hot in the first period when Montreal was out shot 15 to 8.Do the referees have it out for Montreal? Some of the penalties being called are simply ridiculous.

The Habs were out shot 17 to 7 in the first period.I am sorry, but it is time for Janne Niinimaa to go. He is currently at -6 and is projected to be -31 on the season.
