Time to Punt said:Injuries - their number 1 centre (Lang), number 1 defenceman (Markov), number 2 defencemen (Schneider) and number 2 winger (Tanguay). You give those players back to Montreal and take away Boston's 2 best defensemen, best centre and 2nd best winger and I wonder how the series would have turned out ?

I disagree, if you want your goaler to gain confidence, you do this by making him play!
The "real" problem is with the coaching staff! They did a piss poor job with Price..
Now lets see if they can rebuild and they do need a drill sargeant as a coach
He can't gain confidence when his confidence is already shakey and the fans are booing him from the start. He lost his confidence in the All Star game when he was destroyed in the young guns game and he never got it back. And feeding him to the wolves is not the way to help him get it back.
As far as the coaching staff is concerned, I have never liked Melancon as a goalie coach. Huet was going pretty good when he started with the team but once Rollie got hold of him, he started to slide. And yes, I do realize that Huet was never the greatest goalie to begin with, but he got worse, not better. With Price, he turned a kid with a lot of talent into a goalie who drops to the ice as soon as an opposing player hits the blue line. Price has had two years of this useless training and it will take a long time and a really good coach to get him back where he belongs.
But I will never change my mind that he didn't belong in the playoffs this year. He sure as hell hadn't earned the start with the way he had been playing and Halak most certainly did. Last time I checked, the idea was to win games, not to use the playoffs as a training tool to help your young 'goalie of the future' get his confidence back. As Gainey is so fond of saying...he is only 21 and he has a lot of years ahead of him. If not starting him in game three would have been so detrimental to his developement, then he isn't tough enough to be in the NHL to begin with. And as it turned out, Gainey's decision has probably caused more damage to his confidence than sitting him out ever would have. In fact Gainey should give a big thank you to the Bruins for not running up the score in the last game because they could probably have scored another three or four goals in the third period if they had really wanted to. And that would have really done a number on Price's confidence.
What Gainey did was like tossing a young boxer into the ring with Mike Tyson in his prime. Sure, losing to the best may build character. If you survive the beating.
That's for damn sure! Just look at that no-class cowardly thug Komisarek. Gets his ass kicked by Lucic and has to use his stick to try to get revenge. Zero guts and zero class. Komisarek doesn't deserve to be in the NHL - one of the most cowardly acts I've seen.
Quoted for the record from April 2009 when Komi was still a Hab. Just to show the board's two resident leaflovers yet again that what they write is always total BS.
You are truly DEMENTED, my dear friend. You really should go & seek some help. I feel sorry for you. This board is definitely NOT good for you. You have absolutely no life. I mean it.
