I think Therien stays as he's done a good job preparing the team. As someone else stated Montreal needs more goal scoring and hopefully will address that going forward.
In my experience Toronto fans whine more than any other.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the move to the bell center, leaving the mystique of the old forum behind. ahh, the good old days of the forum, the voice of Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin doing play by play, Roger Doucet singing the national anthem at every home game........wait I am not a habs fan, i'll stop now. I just love hockey.

WoW, sounds like you've been to a few games at The Forum. I have never had the opportunity to attend any games, I had always thought that it would be there forever and at some point make it to one. Always followed what was going on through the local newspapers (back before the internet - ) through the 70's, 80's and 90's. And catch games on TV when they played the Bruins.

Think Michel Therrien stays?

I think he's going to be on thin ice (pardon the pun ) if he doesn't get them to Finals. Some of the top brass are responsible for the cast members they choose, so just like any coach, they have to work with what they got. Bergevin has got to provide those needed answers or else he will be on the chopping block too.

Though he's done well helping them through the regular season, it seems to me that the team is struggling after getting through their first playoff round, especially after having a bye. Could it be conditioning? Are the top tier teams too difficult for them to handle? Is Therrien clearly being outcoached? If any team wants to be Champions, they need to be able to face anybody and win. IMO, I think Price gets overplayed. As good as he is, he probably would be more crisp if they cut back on his appearances by about 10 games.

I hope for 5, will take 6. Don't think I can handle another 7.

Well being that they didn't make it past Tampa you could say the top tier teams were too much. I'm not so sure it could be blamed on conditioning. They seemed to keep up with Tampa but their lack of scoring hurt them. If you look at scoring chances (and also count goal posts because I don't think they even count as a shot) they had plenty. So the inability to finish is a factor. I was thinking Lars Eller needed to step up offensively or he'd get traded and I'm really leaning that way now. His classless move to put the puck in the net after the whistle, game 3 I believe, really put him in the dog house for me.
If you could show me the bad goals Price was letting in then I'd agree with you on him being overplayed. The Habs need to score more often but even then Price would carry the load in net. Historically Montreal has had or relied on great goaltending.
On another note this weekends schedule is BS. 1pm ET on Saturday for the East and 3pm ET on Sunday for the West. Not sure who this caters to but it makes no sense to me.
I'd like to see an original 6 final.
