Probably because he gets paid well to cover the Habs.

Good.

Excellent. I can watch it (starting around 8pm) without missing out on time spent with my kid.

A heart-warming tale of fatherhood. Not.

You're a big fat meanie

 

[Krustchev]

You're a big fat meanie

I can't help it. Ask your wife to hang with Jr. as of 7:00 p.m. so that you can watch the game properly.

 

[Habsy]

Not that this is a new phenomena... but do you have a new story? Or is this just a general comment?

Was reading comments by their fans after articles. They're really really dumb.

[Habsy]

Nice of him. Guess he thinks the Habs are going to lose tonight.

When people say... "we're not paying attention to those things" ... or... "it doesn't affect us at all"...

It usually does.

It's like Gorges saying abouit the collapse... "We're looking ahead, not backwards".

Gorges probably is but if the Habs get a lead and the Bruins get 1 back I'm pretty sure a few of the Habs will think about the collapse. I know DonKay will.

Here's how I see it, we CAN win this series but 2 things have to change drastically:

1). We have to find some kind of solution to their tenacious forecheck on our D. They dump it in and fly into our zone (so much for the B's being slow) to hit our smallish D with their big forwards before we can effect a proper breakout. As a consequence of this, see point 2 below:
2) We have to quit turning over the puck at our blueline. I know they're quicker than we expected and big and physical but it has to stop. I counted 14 turnovers in the first 2 periods of the first game and lost count in the third. There were 3 turnovers at the blueline on one shift!
Price also has to continue outplaying Rask. This of course goes without saying.

Its up Therrien and the staff to someohow find a breakout pattern from our own end that can defeat this, its time for him and his staff to start earning their keep, because if they don't we will lose this series. If we can somehow do this we should be able to stop the turnovers and get some odd man breaks. I didn't believe for a second that the Bruins (as much as it pains me to admit it) were much slower than us.

That is how I see it...

This is like Jaro Halak vs Capitals....Ovy saying Halak's hand was shaking as he was squeezing his water bottle.

Habs went on to beat the Caps....This series looks similar....get outshot, let your goalie stand on his head, and hope to win on timely PP goals

If it works...

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

probably arena scheduling and our home games generally are Tues-Thurs-Sat, Rangers tend to be Monday Wed Friday Sunday

MSG recently signed Billy Joel to perform one concert per month at the Garden. Hence the scheduling conflict. If it isn't that it's usually the circus.

Really? Do you actually watch the games? I have to wonder with you some times. This Canadiens is way, way better than the 2010 team. We had no business losing game 2 on Saturday. Only a fool would think otherwise.

Of course my Jr has a game until 420 and practice at 645 so I am screwed

 

[GrandWazoo]

Do you have a gif of it?

NHL.com has all the goals highlight.

it was a very smart move by the bruins

now we are talking about price and not how rask sucks vs the habs
which is important for a team coming into montreal with the massive amounts of media around
