Hot Topic: Les Canadiens

The Habs were humiliated by the Blue Jackets last night, losing 5-2. This on the heels of them losing 5-2 on Monday. They have only won only 6 games since December 1. The Leafs have won Canadiens fans are getting a wee bit testy.

Canadiens fans are getting angry - Montreal Gazette
Since Dec. 1, it’s the Canadiens who have been the worst team in the NHL with a 6-18-1 record, earning 13 out of a possible 50 points.

There's an easy solution to your problems, Habs.

There's a new "Battle of Ontario:" a fight to develop the LeBreton Flats, a huge brownfield along the Ottawa River. Only minutes from Parliament Hill, the Supreme Court, and downtown Ottawa, it is likely the most valuable vacant land in Canada. Eugene Melnyk and his team are facing off against Quebec billionaires André Desmarais and Guy Laliberté. Both groups bids were formally introduced yesterday for creating a massive retail, office, and residential space for thousands, with a new arena for the Senators as the centerpiece.

2 visions for LeBreton Flats unveiled - CBC News
RendezVous LeBreton, the group backed by Ottawa Senators' owner Eugene Melnyk, sees five distinct neighbourhoods built around a major events centre, which proponents say could hold 180 events a year, far more than the 40-50 NHL hockey games that would take place there.

The plans, both of which include hockey arenas and central libraries, would redevelop nearly 22 hectares of prime Ottawa real estate

Here is the first episode of Stall Talk. I personally think that name is wasted on a team without any Staals.

The consummate professional vs. the petulant youth; Lecavalier’s rebound and Drouin’s aversion - Raw Charge
Production returns to former Lightning captain in limited chances since his trade to Los Angeles, a contrast to Jonathan Drouin's in Tampa and Syracuse.

Data drives Lightning’s need for quality defenceman in Drouin deal - TSN
Where Hedman and Stralman elevate the performance of Tampa Bay’s impressive forward group, the rest of the blueline seems to artificially suppress performance. Playing with the second and/or third pairing often means spending more time in the defensive zone, and, consequently, fewer chances to have an impact in the offensive zone.

He's just the 33rd player in NHL history to accomplish the feat.
