Canadiens on the Web

posted by Mike Boone at 12h40 EST on Sep 5


RDS will offer streaming – and, on the nights Michel Bergeron is working, screaming – versions of all 82 regular-season Canadiens telecasts.

It will cost $2.99 per game or $20 a month or a still-to-be-announced price for the full season.

STRANGE QUESTION: I know Komisarek is Montreal's NHLPA rep, but who are the OTHER 29 TEAMS reps for 2008/2009? NHLPA website doesn't have it, any ideas?

Just a little note for folks who tap into stuff at my site.

My home computer was hit with a sever virus this week - thanks to some uploaded pics from Yahoo.

All my files from future posts were saved, but indelibly scrambled. It might take me a few days to get running again. Thanks for your patience.

With all of the research and information you must have on your computer, I hope that you're somehow backing it up remotely. It would be a huge shame if you lost all of your hard earned work and fruits of your labour.

I got lucky! It is all backed up and saved. Trouble is, where it once was all organized and tidy, it is a big mess now. Files and folders all over with no names, etc. 70 gigs worth!

Needless to say, I learned alot about computers this week!


Nahhh! same as cars and women...

Hmmm,....understanding women....I'd rather not even try!

We don't need any more leaders here big boy...just want your body!


... thanx RDS for nuttin'. Live streaming? Great! Not free?? Absolutely hideous!!

Well who would purchase the channel if the games would be streamed free on the internet. Secondly, the price per game is reasonable for the bandwidth they have to use to strem it. Assuming they are streaming DVD quality

Koivu for Prime Minister...


... well Corporate, your argument falls short, and only holds water if you assume everyone on this discussion list has access to, and can sign on to RDS. I for one don't.

those of us that live overseas. i subscribed to nhl.com last year, and paid us$160 (if i remember correctly) for virtually every game in the nhl including playoffs. of course i only watched habs games, and more often than not we got the other team's announcers, which sucked, but at least i saw the damn games, even if it was morning my time.

so my question is, will this streaming be available to people outside quebec/canada?

oh yeah, one other question Corporate...koivu for prime minister of what country?! LoL


Are you the restaurant guy? You don't have to answer of course but am amazed at the Hab fans from all over the world getting involved here at this site.My son just came back from 3 years in Korea but still able to watch the games on-line.


bigjames's picture

not sure what you mean abt the restaurant guy... i live in hong kong and i love restaurants, but i'm not sure that qualifies me as "the restaurant guy"! anyway, i am a habs fan!


Sorry,had read a few years back of a Canadian guy going to Hong Kong and operating several successful restaurants.I'm sure there would not be many Canadian guys over there and anyhow ,it is cool to have input from so far away.My eldest son just came back from 3 years in Korea so you are either visiting here or up very late.

In TampaBay.com Bolt's Owner Len Barrie stated - Barrie fires back at Torts
Lightning owner Len Barrie could not let pass comments made by John Tortortella during a radio interview in Ottawa. The former coach, fired after last season's last-place finish, said he had "zero respect" for Barrie and fellow owner Oren Koules, and called them "a couple of cowboys."

Said Barrie late Friday night: "What were there, nine openings for coaches? That's why he's working for TV. I'll be sure I wear my cowboy hat for the first game."

I'm impressed with TK's stats here.Was aware that Therrian had highly recommended him to Carbo but unaware of his AHL career...certainly showed leadership to go with the courage and grit he has shown us.

Nightmare;keep up the great work dude!!Come to this site first thing every morning to see what is happening in the hockey world and read your links while having my first cup of java.Really enjoy and appreciate your efforts.

NM49 is in for a big round of applause at Summit 2, for dutyfully seeking to bring our daily Habs For Breakfast - A promise!

Robert - Take it easy here, my friend. The last thing we need is to have all this recognition and appreciation going to Bryan's head. I don't want him walking around Montreal like a proud peacock. By the way, guys like you and Bryan will be asked to park your laptops at the Summit and strictly get by on your cerebral knowledge and interpersonal skills. The standing ovations will be put on hold until that time:-)

On a serious (and sincere) note, I too look forward each morning to see what NM49 uncovers on a daily basis. Very informative posts that open up 'mini threads' for our perusal and discusssion. Thanks, Bryan!

Steve - Who are you kidding , how can you test us on our hockey knowledge when your eyes will be checking out all the talent on Crescent Street and your head will be in a Cialis fog, lol.


Shhhhh!Don't believe he is bring his wife.


Robert L's picture

Tell me please, is the Cialis fog blue tinged?


Robert L's picture

Steve, I am up to that cerebral task 24/7/365. Nothing could be any more fun. Pick my brain at the Summit - you'll see I am for real, my friend!

We'll share all kinds of smiles and giggles, for sure!


Just please be careful with too much of that "happy" stuff.

Not a problem, LOL!

Christ, I would have to become accountable and responsible!

I'm afraid I am too much of Joe Schmo obsessed Habs Fan slob to ever make a creditable living from it.

I'd rather be paid in smiles and handshakes!
