If it is Saturday, then it is time for Fantasy Hockey ONE. There was this calm feeling to Saturday morning and then Jacques Martin was fired. The fantasy impact from his firing will be felt by many. Maybe the Coach and GM both should have been dismissed but the playing style of this team was beyond vanilla. In this NHL, players need to be able to take advantage of their talents. Montreal clearly look stifled and frustrated and it was time to make a change. This will benefit owners of Montreal players slightly at the very least.
