This could be our Habs right now.The Intro
- Fairly standard. Players come out to their names, everyone cheers. What were people expecting? Players propelling down from the rafters?
The First Period
- The Good: AK46 scores off a Patches "I TOTALLY MEANT TO MISS FOR THE REBOUND OFF THE BACKBOARDS" shot barely 2 minutes in the game. Patches also adds Kostopoulos to his "I hit ex-Habs real hard" list.
- The Bad: A bullshit penalty on Darche screws everything up. Then the Captain takes 2 in a row and it's all downhill from there.
- The Ugly: Wow guys, stand around stationary some more. I don't think you could help any less. Also see turnovers, you're causing them, and they're scoring uncontested from them.
The Second Period
- The Good: Lars Eller's first game back from shoulder surgery and he's the only one with a hint of care that played last year. Also the shoulder is good according to some hits.
- The Bad: While Calgary finally gets called for penalties, Habs give up 2 shorthanded chances.
- The Ugly: Price makes a save off the collarbone that stings him, he has to scramble to take care of 2 more saves, a third goes in and...his teammates didn't move a muscle to help.
The Third Period
- The Good: That 2nd wave powerplay unit with the Swiss Misters on the blueline, DD, AK46 and I don't remember who else was the better unit.
- The Bad: Almost scoring isn't scoring.
- The Ugly: Team just wanted out of this game. Price was just hoping they would leave him the fuck alone. Way to rally and help him get that 100th win boys!
Conclusion: Blarg.
Brownie Points: Eller!
Sad Panda: Game lacked some serious Cammy, who looked so sad. And no that tie didn't hide your sadness enough.
New Goal Song? WHAT IS IT?!
Babies? Hal Gill's wife had a boy last night so give the man a break. Also congrats!
Ouch: Ryan White had successful sport hernia surgery (tabernacle). Markov was in Florida seeing Doctor McKnee.
WTF of the Night: RDS seems ready to trade Cole back to Carolina. After 3 games.
Panic at HI/O: The usual angry troll stuff.
Silver Lining: No one got hurt, unless you count their pride.
Total: Stinkiest of their usual stinky-since-lockout home openers. Probably because it was against the Calgary Lames, of whom they're always stinky against. Also their GM threatened their jobs. After two games. Probably to cover his ass when he should have bit the bullet and tanked that fucker to various high draft picks last season when he had the chance instead of laughing at Edmonton. Also fuck you Tanguay. You never played like that when you were here, backchecking and stuff, and I'm talking before Artyukhin used you for a dishrag. Fuck off back to your stupid team.

Diazling recap N31.
What an empty heartless performance. No passion, nobody gave a flying fuck. OK so the D gives up 4, fine, half them should be in Hamilton anyway ... but ... where the fuck is our offense ?? Some of these guys are making 4-5-6 million dollars. Jebus
We sucked.
At least propelling from the rafters would have been fun to watch. How refreshing to see them back in pre-season form. Ugh.
I was forced to stop watching after the first, is this team just sick of Chocula and playing to rule, or do they say hey, Cole and Gomez are bringing in close to 20 mill for staying out of the play. Price can stop the fucking puck, so play some fucking fucked fuck offense. There is absolutely no sign this team is any different than the last two years, so throw the system in the trash, and play some hockey, it cant be worse.
Yes 31 the Habs are Abu Gharib hamsters.
I, for one, agree with RDS. Erik Cole is bullshit.
We can only hope if they continue to suck and lose a bunch in a row, they will finally give Martin the boot....and he can take Gomez with him.
"Occupy the Habs"
I give Cole a bit of leeway. It took Cammy a few games to get himself settled on this team.
