I walked into the Bell Centre and a hockey game broke out!

Oh how I missed my Habs...

And good on the people who lined up since 6am in -20 weather (but it wasn't that cold if you dressed right and the wind wasn't too bad either, unless you're me carrying a drink from Five Guys and didn't put my gloves on). They got the good seats and met a few players for their effort. Personally I just got to work early to leave early (5:30) and walked right in without a lineup.

Really didn't need to be reminded how shitty the music is in that place...
- Seriously. Did someone let Blunden troll the sound booth with a Casio keyboard? This is what happens when you put him on waivers!
- Over 17k at the scrimmage. Right away Shitsburgh is loling that they had 18k. Well that's nice, but really I have no idea how they counted. The nosebleeds were getting people, and it was fucking cold outside.
- Really don't know if Bourque's backhander works in a real game or not...
- Desharnais to Pacioretty. All sauce. Top shelf. Goalies won't have a chance.
- It's a meaningless scrimmage but Price makes 3 quick saves and robs a goal with his glove. Then laughs.
- Yes. We were booing the refs. It's all in good fun.
- After Erik Cole's lame penalty shot, the refs actually called two penalties with actual powerplays,
- And OMFG Kaberle scores his one goal for the year.
- WE WANT PK! *clapclapclapclapclap*
- And I want the little brats sitting next to me to go away.
- Emelin was wearing the bird cage since he came back. Takes a puck in the throat. Team White zooms by his fallen body for a two-on-one that Price stops but the rebound is ignored by his confused defenseman for a goal. Bastards! You killed Emelin! (He was OK).
- Fans were chanting Carey and he was saluting back. Then Budaj got some love on his side of the rink. I loves my goalies.
 - Speaking of Budaj, he's rocking a mullet.
- Shootout time! Also known as the Galchenyuk Bonanza.
- And he scores.
- Gallagher does his best Patrick Kane, and scores.
- Chants for PK in the shootout.
- Cube gets a huge welcome home cheer.
- Prust tries to do the fancy spin through the legs and fails. Gets an A for the effort.
- Tinordi is like WTF is a shootout.
- Markov celebrates his goal in a Markovian cheer.
- Well Patches broke Price. Should be ready for Saturday though.
- Was waiting for the puck to bounce off the post in the shootout and smack Emelin in the face. From the bench.
- SHOULD HAVE LET THE GOALIES GO!
- Ref actually asked Price if he could continue and he just waved.
- Prust ends the shootout, Scott Hartnell style.

Seriously. I missed my Habs. Fuck you NHL.
