08:24 AM ET 05.24 | To hear Jaroslav Spacek tell it, Carolina may wind up saving his career, one that found him in a dysfunctional situation in Montreal. "To be honest, I'd like to go back to Carolina," said Spacek. ... More broadly, he repeated the words spoken by more than one Habs teammate: there was virtually no management communication with players, the club's style of play seldom suited the roster, and mind-numbingly bizarre rules were legislated, these childish regulations unchanged even after the pleading of veteran leaders. "So much bad stuff," Spacek said. "In my 20-year hockey career, I'd never seen anything like it. If you don't like the way I play, kick me in the [butt]. But no one said anything. It was terrible. But this is a great city."

That's true, but originally it was just an excuse to go out, drink beer and smoke cigars.

Going to be another disappointing year in Habsville.....the team needs a major overhaul and nobody seems interested in doing it. They need to do it ALL at one time...mgmt....coaches...players...start at the ground level and go from there. They've run it as far into the ground as they can.
