Habs Season Thread: 2024-25 Regular Season

This. 100%

This franchise doesn't hang banners from the rafters that read "PLAYOFF PARTICIPANTS". You either win the Cup or you're a pathetic failure, end of.

now this is the real Wehave, not the meely mouth "let's lose/tank" guy, deep down you see the last three seasons as failures

in the end, we will never win again anyway, Bettman will not allow it
 
You weren't hooked by the Giants. You adopted them when the Expos were no longer cool. You were a fully grown adult by then, and a lot older than Junior is now. All things are possible.
they were always 2nd fav team from like the 1980s, Expos abused me too many times so they left me before I left them, (and the Expos stopped being cool in the early 1980s, we all knew they were a dying team, just took a while for the coup de gras to be imposed)

I used the right psychological techniques on Jr, when he claimed to like the Ducks as a 3.5 year old old, I told him it really hurt me, and then bought him nothing but Canadiens' gear, he had no choice really.

I'm the guy who keeps telling you that playoff appearances don't matter. I sant the Cup, not a wild card berth. If we aren't a Cup contender then I'd prefer we tank. I have no interest in being a team "In da mix" for a playoff spot. Fool's gold.

yet you rubbed one out over beating the Leafs in the post aeason

as for a cup, lower rhe expectations, we are the Leafs now
 
It was enjoyable but in retrospect it would have been better had we missed the playoffs entirely. It kicked the start if the rebuild down the road another year.
True but without the Covid years Habs would have missed the playoffs entirely

Nero gets fired earlier but more local puppets would have been hired to kick the can again

I dont think Hugo was in the picture that early in negotiations
 
That Lehkonen goal on june 24th...

Even if we take it way too seriously, at the end of the day it's entertainment. Those 2 months in the midst of Covid and all that shit were priceless.
I was excited when it looked like the Islanders might beat Tampa. We'd have won for sure if they pulled off the upset and in the event we didn't then I'd have been able to tell Leafs fans that the Islanders instantly became contenders after getting rid of the cancer named Tavares.

But once Tampa pulled it out in Game 7 I knew we'd be exposed as a goalie dependent fraud. The peak was St. Jean Day. I barely paid attention once we drew Tampa in the final. Everything just became inevitable.

TB`s third line killed us

We played well taking nothing against them especially defensively but that had to be the worst team in finals history
