Web reaction on the Habs loss to Thrashers

Well I have one more day of holiday rest, before hitting the day job again. But for you early risers, here is some water cooler talk, from across the MSM and blogger boards, for some opinions and views on the Montreal Canadiens 4-3 overtime loss to the Atlanta Thrashers.

Arpon Basu looks at Jacques Martin’s favourite word. His last sentence is certainly an excellent question.
