Je suis d’accord. L’an dernier il semblait toujours a bout de souffle. Je me disais qu’il devrait aller faire du cardio. Bien beau faire des poids et halteres mais dans le fond au hockey le cardio est aussi sinon plus important que la force physique.
That was the fluke of flukes if you ask me. Those last 2-3 months of the regular season & their playoffs run were what made Binnington & Craig Berube’s reputation. Were it not for that one magical & totally unexpected season Binnington would likely not be a top candidate to play for Team Canada in the upcoming Four Nations Cup & i doubt Craig Berube would be coaching the Maple Leafs today.
Trust you on this... I was abroad at the time! So besides the fact that I was watching from afar, my point was just about how things can turn around... Hope!
I agree but management needs to be willing to act in order to want to turn things around but the Gorton-Hughes regime is likely to stay put. They appear to be totally satisfied with how things are going. The reason? Job security. Would they feel that their jobs are on the line depending on how the team performs i have no doubt that they’d start to make changes pronto were it by changing coaches, making trades or order the coach to start benching underperforming players & replace them with hungrier & grittier players from the farm. Sorry but there will be no quick turnaround in Mtl this season. The team is doomed to suck once again until at least next season. No wonder several of the veterans are starting to get exasperated.
Can’t blame him for being so patient, in 2009 he paid $575M for the team and the Bell center. Today, the whole thing worth over $2.3B and earned him $263M last year.
The Sapito family will fare even better once they sell CF Montreal for close to $1 billion after buying the team for $40 million.
These are wild statements I’m seeing here, you clearly have no clue how to build a winning franchise in the world of sports. There is absolutely no point of having a trigger happy mentality and firing everybody or whatever after a losing streak in the middle of a rebuild.
