IF THE THEME AT THE BELL CENTRE IS 'ONE GOAL, AID FOR HAITI' DOES THAT PUT PRESSURE ON GEORGES LARAQUE TO KEEP HIS GOAL SCORING STREAK GOING?
"The odds of that happening are about the same as winning the lottery," Laraque tells me. Hey, at least scoring success hasn't gone to his head!
Georges and Als' reciever Danny Desriveaux have pledged their support for CJAD/Astral Media Haiti Day Monday. Hope you will too.
Why is it some people who have everything are never satisified, and some people who've never had anything seem to lose everything?
When the Canadiens said they were desperate for secondary scoring, did anyone really think Big Georges and Carey Price would come up with as many points in the last 16 games as Lapierre-D'Agostini&Pacioretty combined!?
Save a guys career and he wants to come back to haunt you? Jacques Martin saved Mike Brodeur from hockey obscurity and put him back on track to finally make it to the NHL. Martin signed "the other Brodeur" when his East Coast League team folded and the Panthers were desperate for help with their AHL farm team. A year later, here's Brodeur 2-0 career with 1 shutout facing Martin and the Canadiens. Time for the glass goalie skate and his NHL debut ball to hit a midnight pumpkin?
Would you rather start elsewhere or return to Montreal as a role-player? That's the dilemma for Jermaine McElveen of the Alouettes as the CFL free agent bidding approaches. Big Mc tells me he's had a workout with the Minnesota Vikings as well as the Seahawks. But like Jeff Perrett and Chip Cox, McElveen's timing could not have been worse. Right after their free agent auditions Seattle blew out the Jim Mora coaching regime. "I'd love to come back to Montreal," McElveen tells me, but Jim Popp also has John Bowman and Keron Williams as free agents to re-sign.
Mike Weir says he hopes Tiger's back for the Masters, but surprise surprise, hasn't talked to his rival. Will Weir say still be saying that if he wins some events in Woods' absence?
