Always, huh? LMAO!! Although I will agree that was a great comeback. Montreal played well and the Bruins fell apart.

Anyone who makes it a habit to dive consistently in every game doesn’t have heart. It’s a disrespect to the refs and for the rules. I will agree that what Ribiero did the one time vs. the Bruins was ridiculous, but Tucker does it atleast 3 times a game and still cries to the ref when he takes a penalty. It’s REALLY annoying to watch him, even when he had a Habs jersey on.

You obviously have no clue what you are talking about when it comes to Raycroft! Who says he is a one year and out player? Oh yeah... you and others!! LMAO!! And injury prone? He had one injury!! Think before you type! Last I checked, Montreal gave up on the next Roy and all time savior in Habs history..... Theodore! That just shows that all goalies have up and down seasons. There are not enough Brodeurs left in the game.

And how was the trade perfect for Boston? Raycroft is ready to play for Toronto.... Rask is a few years away.... if he even makes it. Rask didn't even win a playoff game last year. So to be honest.... Raycroft is less of a gamble then Rask. Raycroft has the Calder trophy.... oh yeah... Canadiens fans are still bitter about that too!!

As for Raycroft being a holdout...... look at the management he was dealing with! Look at the past Bruins management's track record. (Kristich, Allison, Carter, Dafoe, Boynton, etc) Hopefully Chirelli and Gorton change that.

Bottom line..... Toronto has done more than Montreal so far in free agency. I don't agree with the Gill signing, but Kubina will be fine. And as for Raycroft.... they just got themselves a young starter that can win plenty of games for them... this year and beyond.

Raycroft was traded for a number of reasons.... 1) salary 2) Thomas and Tovionen are already under contract. 3) Wanted to give Raycroft a shot to play 4) And he had the best trade value.

And finally...... Good luck to the Habs..... I always look forward to the Bruins/Canadiens games!!

Long itme Habs fans never believed the rumors. The Habs have only signed two free agents in the recent past - Linden and Dandenault.

Any major acquisitions will come through trade.

Gainey always makes the call to try to get a deal, even when he knows the answer will be no.

Ribeiro is one of those skill forwards, minus the skill. But hey thats your opinion. To me there is nothing embarassing about Tucker, hes been banging in the league since his first season. Sure I don’t like some of the dives, but you can’t deny his heart, grit and overall competitive spirit he brings to the game. Some times you got to give some guys some slack, Tucker is one of them because hes always playing close to the edge.
