Yeah, Price has had a tough year.

He's surviving right now, but it's just a matter of time before he implodes again.

Last night sucked for Halak; he wins the Molson Cup for the month of February for his performance, skates out to smile and salute the crowd, does the photo-op and then sits for the game. That's crass. Gainey should have played him at least last night, as he seems to insist that Price was one of his mistakes from last year.

^ i don't agree with that at all. Gainey always sticks with his guns. Remember Theodore when he was dieing in montreal? IT was gainey who made julien play him, game in and game out. I think Price will be fine, past coule of games have been awesome.

I think you guys have a little too much faith in gainey right now.

Judge him by what he's done not his name. The habs got to 5 games in the 2nd round last year and that's the farthest they've gone.

He lost Souray and Streit, traded picks for an aging defencemen, and in my mind threw Carey Price in net at too young of an age, look what that has done to him.

And who got fired? Julien.

Anyway, Halak gets the start on Saturday. I think there's only so many trickling pucks through the legs that any team can take.

You think? They should have hired one of the numerous coaches who got fired, but no.

Should of hired Tortorella. One of my favorite Torts moments was when he benched khabibulin in game 5 of the playoffs and we lost because of it which knocked us out that year. He's just a bad ass all around.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
