Maybe Habs' season ticket holders will demand that Gainey's jersey number be un-retired.

Montreal Canadiens coverage

Twitter:@DH_EricDaoust.

I think you gotta give him a pass on that one. He was one of the greats while I was growing up...and gave Montreal his heart and soul. Just shouldn't have gone into the GM role, perhaps.

And this is coming from a Nordique fan.

I think I was the only young kid in that era that thought Tretiak kicked ass, and that Peter Stastny was better than Gretzky. Ah, memories !

I endorse this post. It's goofy to punish sponsors for being upset with the NHL/NHLPA.

I'm thinking about organizing 1,000 or so people at every opening night to throw hundreds of dimes (symbolic of greed/money?) on the ice before the puck drop (after the anthem, please have some respect). Even better if you can heat them up before chucking them on the ice.

Have you ever tried picking up a dime once it hits the ice? Nearly impossible to pick up. They would likely have to cancel the games due to player safety; imagine a player skating at top speed hitting a dime on the ice and hurtling head first into the boards. Pair a lies.

Note: I realize this may be difficult in places like Phoenix or Columbus, where that number is actually exceeded by cardboard cutouts of people placed in seats by management in order to qualify for NHL-monetary assistance, but I digress...

Note 2: I don't actually encourage anyone to do this because it could seriously harm someone, it was only meant in a lame attempt at humour (humor for our American friends reading this)
