It all Gauthier fault!

I was toying with the idea of bringing this blog back for a while now and recent events have forced my hands. The main reason I stop was that ranting about the Habs on twitter is way more interesting than on a blog that nobody reading anyway. Here my new year good wish in advance

Goodbye Jacques I know you don't deserve half the shit that was said about you but the other half you deserve fully and that was more than enough to fire your ass ten times over anyway.

Don't get too comfortable Randy. Considering the shitstorm that your promotion just raised you would think Martin was the reincarnation of Toe Blake. Lesson learned when you're next in line to coach the Montreal Canadiens get a fucking Rosetta Stone or this handy book BEFORE you get promoted!

And Pierre do us all a favour and fall on your sword before Geoff call the security guard to evict you from the building. You caused most of the mess that the Habs are in right now the shitstorm of last week was all on you. And for fuck sake when you fire a coach have a real replacement ready that not from the system somebody who will think outside the box because he was not in the box!

To the crazy French media, nobody except a few bigot give a rat ass that Cunneyworth does not speak French. I know that you badly need audio content in French but that no excuse for going batshit crazy on this. The truth is most of that shitstorm came from print media and that because the print guys are too damn lazy to want to do translation instead of stuffing their faces but when the last time you heard an Habs coach saying anything worth quoting anyway?

You want to criticize Gauthier choice I got plenty of real shit you can use first he's the same damn style of coach that Jacques Martin is. Second he was part of the organisation, he's part of the problem not the solution. Third he's an interim choice and lame duck already why leave for tomorrow or next summer a choice you should have made two week before you even fired Jacques Martin...  
 

Coach's Corner jump the shark!

It kind of sad to say but Coach's Corner this hallmark CBC Hockey Night In Canada jumped the shark. More precisely Don Cherry is doing the jumping. His bitching about PK Subban feel more like the moaning of a Leafs or Bruins fan complaining about the supposed lack of a respect of a future NHL superstar. Sore losers make for bad commentator and it fair to say Don would be a fan of Subban if only he did not happen to play for the Habs! Add to that the fact that Coach's Corner rarely if ever talk about the games going on in front of them and it getting old fast. Not to mention the constant patriotic masturbation we have to suffer every time one of our a soldiers get blown up in Afghanistan. By the way I support the troops by demanding that we get them the fuck out of there ASAP. That a lot more honest than the pandering bullshit served by Don S Cherry every other Saturday night!


I think it time the CBC put Cherry, McLean and Bob Cole on the proverbial floating Iceberg. I suggest Coast to Coast with Kelly Hrudey and Mike Milbury could use a promotion to a more ungodly time slot!  

For a little background Jumping the shark is an idiom used to denote the point in a television show history where the plot spins off into absurd storyline or unlikely characterizations.
