I came home to a very happy and awake hamster who took a nice run around the "play area" in his ball (he likes to chase me) then a nice nap on my shoulder. Pleky was purring happily. He's such a sweet little rodent.
Highlights of the night in a meaningless game:
- Olé olé olé at the ACC.
- Gio was one goal short of 30. All he needed was a hat trick. All he got was two goals the slacker.
- PK couldn't tie the Guy Lapointe record but hey 14 goals by a rookie D in this League on THIS incarnation of the team is pretty fucking hard to do!
- Oh how I missed those Tomas Plekanec shorthanded breakaways. Suck it, Optimus Reim.
- Cammy one shy of 20 with a twice injured shoulder. Too bad. He had his chances but he just couldn't elevate the puck.
- RYAN WHITE SCORED A GOAL!
- RYAN WHITE HAD A FIGHT!
- Ryan White didn't have another Gordie Howe hat trick but RYAN WHITE DUMPED DION PHANEUF INTO THE BENCH. TEEHEE!
- Also White's head got lumpy and he couldn't put his helmet back on so he had to sit out for a bit. But he was having the time of his life in the penalty box with a giant bag of ice.
- Should have been the 3rd star instead of Kessel but someone was sucking Leafs on that pick.
- Kadri's a douche.
- I would switch Benoit Pouliot with Raphael Pouliot any day. At least he would have buried Kessel at center ice...
- Carey Price is full of win and awesome. At least he got his piece of Habs history. That's win 38 (that's FIRST in the League tied with Luongo who plays for the best team in the League) in his 72nd start! A first in Habs history since Ken Dryden...
- And no that puck didn't cross the line, it was right ON the line. Matrix save!
- Tee time for the Leafs and the Marlies. Bulldogs FIRST in their division even though the Habs have picked them clean of their top players.
- NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED THIS TIME!
- Win #600 for Jacques Martin. Price: "(...)We've all enjoyed playing behind Jacques and I think he's done a pretty bang up job." What say you, Laraque?
- Cry more, CBC.
Here's to one hell of a season, boys. I'll have my playoffs stuff up soonish. Bring on the Booins.
