Habs 3, Leafs 1: Nothing else matters

The season might suck. The playoffs might be a faint hope. Even a good pick might be a stretch. (I mean, have you seen the Wild or Sabres play recently)? But when all else fails, just beat the fucking Leafs! Bonus: no free points were given out.

And it was a weird game. The Habs looked like they were feeling the back-to-back, but the Leafs looked even more haggard. Then the ACC started falling apart to the point where the staff should have been penalized for delay of game... It was a tie game from the first but after the delay, Diaz returns to bang in the winner and Eller squeaks in his 10th (!!!!) for the dagger. Carey Price got elbowed in the head by Kadri but still kept with the play like nothing happened. Pretty sure CBC was still fellating the Leaf long after the triple low five.

Apparently Healy was bitching about the Habs 2004 draft class being shit. No mention on the Leaf's version. Since his hair probably gets in the way of his ability to think:

- Habs 2004 draft class has a combined 960 NHL games, where four guys are currently in the regular lineups of their teams. Only Emelin is currently with the Habs after spending plenty of time in the KHL. One member of that draft class currently plays for the Leafs (Grabovski).

- Leafs 2004 draft class has a combined 54 games. None of them are in the NHL.

It's important to do the research.

But enough of that. Congrats to Rene Bourque on his first goal with the Habs! Also a Diaz goal means INTERVIEWS~! *swoon*

wilson complaining about the delay of game due to the broken acc was the icing.

Heh.
I reminded me of that Zamboni fail a few years back, where Paul Maurice was yelling at the guy to go back and fix the ice while Carbo was facepalming.

I wanna know what was on the Jumbotron that had everyone's attention. Price was laughing at it.

And now they get a back to back with the Islanders or something like that? While we get...the Red Wings.

@N31: I think the jumbotron had the playstation top 10 during the break. Where it was # of hits. Schenn was #1 but Emelin was up there.
