And the fork is in

One of the more interesting blogs out there remains Olivier's En Attendent Les Nordiques. What Olivier showed was how Montreal was losing the puck possession battle over time. I suspect that the game of smoke and mirrors played by Montreal with it's juvenile defense has finally been exposed. Why did Gauthier let Martin go? Who knows. Maybe Martin knew the game was up and was demanding some trades for some players that were more experienced and could play defense and Gauthier said no. What is clear to me at least is that the bottom has dropped from this team. Whereas at the beginning of the year we could look at the data and feel confident things would change, now all I feel is despair.
