Battle-weary Canadiens Stumble out of the Playoffs

The Habs were in dire straits late in Game 5 Thursday night, going into the third period trailing 3-1 in both the game and the series. Forget the fact that they entered the playoffs as the number 2 seed in the East, that they won of the Northeast Division, that they entered the playoffs with ...

Brian & Stephen Gionta Go Head to Head

An 11-year NHL veteran, Brian Gionta is the New Jersey Devils franchise leader for goals (48) in a single season (2005-06), is a Stanley Cup champion (2003) and the 34-year-old (standing at 5’7”) is currently the captain of the one of the NHL’s most-storied franchises: the Montreal Canadiens. His brother, 29-year-old Stephen Gionta is currently ...

Are Brian Gionta’s Best Days Long Gone?

Despite the Montreal Canadiens’ strong start this season, some players are struggling offensively for the Eastern Conference leaders. One of them is captain Brian Gionta. In 19 contests this season, the diminutive winger has only recorded 3 goals and 5 assists for 8 points despite playing on the team’s first line with Tomas Plekanec and ...

Canadiens Still Have a Top-6 Forward Spot Up for Grabs

Tomorrow night the Habs will host the Maple Leafs as the shortened season gets underway, but it looks like the Montreal Canadiens still have a key scoring position open in the roster. While it’s pretty clear the top line of Erik Cole, David Desharnais and Max Pacioretty will remain intact, Michel Therrien also made it ...

Movember Reigns Supreme Over Cancer

For the last month you may or may not have noticed an unusual number of men walking around North America with something growing on their upper lip. Day after day, week after week, it got darker and bushier, for we were growing mustaches for Movember. In the process raising thousands of dollars to help fight ...

Top 10 Undersized NHL Players

Often deemed too small by NHL scouts, small, undersized, but skilled players, often have a harder time convincing NHL executives and coaches to give them a chance at the pro hockey level than a 6’4”, 220 pounds forward with lesser skills, but with a bigger physical frame. The rigour of the 82-game NHL calendar take ...
