Habs 4, Leafs 2: CBC tears


You know the Habs had a good night when CBC is a steaming pile of whinebags who can't hide their Leaf blankies fast enough. And once Sportsnet takes over it's will only get worse!

- Remember kids! When you score a kick ass shorthanded goal, and it's your second of the night, don't you dare sheath your stick like a sword! You might motivate the team you're beating 4-0 to play better for a whole 80 seconds!
- Seriously, they can't pull the plug off HNIC fast enough. My biggest problem is TVA taking most of it over from RDS. Lord help us.
- Can we talk about how Pacioretty had 5 shots on net in the first 5 minutes? At one point he had outshot the Leafs on his own. And outscored.
- Price had an assist on that Pacioretty goal. Already better than Bouillon.
- You may want to read the rulebook if you don't understand why that Leaf goal was disallowed. JVR went into the crease on his own and didn't leave. He was in the way. It's rare you'll find a ref that actually understands this. So shut the fuck up, Carlyle.
- PK hit Orr. Orr revenge hit PK. Parros challenged him. Orr said no. Parros then took the puck up the ice for a scoring chance? Yea that happened.
- PK Subban. Put that in your Team Canada pipe and smoke it.
- Obviously he's just too good for the Olympics. The Russians are trying to find a way to "borrow" him.
- Plekanec cross checked Kadri and we all nodded in approval.
-Then Plekanec scored a goal, and we all nodded in approval.
- I still got major feels over that shorthanded Pacioretty goal.
 

- JVR's goal was the reason why Philly traded him. Way too much awesome skill for them. Which means the Leafs will probably trade him again.
- Obligatory Mason Raymond goal. Yawn.
- CBC couldn't be anymore Leaf blue than their entire studio is GLOWLING LEAF BLUE.
- Galchenyuk was benched for the entire 3rd period. No problem. He's a coach kid. He understands that penalty was bad.
- Carey Price save dot gif. All of them. Especially that one. And that one. Ohhh that one was nice too.
- Yea he's so good he doesn't even get a star anymore. But he'll probably get the Molson Cup anyway.
- If there's only one thing these guys need to work on it's scoring on an empty net.
- Bernier now 0-3-0 vs the Habs, I think. Regardless of whatever team he's on.

Pacioretty had TEN shots on net. PK had 6 shots. CBC cried about powerplays in Habs favour, even though Leafs had twice as many but SHHH they believe if they suck up even more to the Leafs, Sportsnet will rehire them. All in all, great night for the Habs.

And a GREAT birthday for Toaster!

Death and Recycled Chesterfields

Don Cherry says he's sorry. So very very sorry.

And yet he still comes across as a stiff board who couldn't really give a fuck and very much a hypocrite.

Through much of his slurred and stumbling attempt to string a few apologetic words together, he retracted the fact he was given (or researched, as he claimed) bad information on those "turncoat pukes" Nilan, Grimson, and Thomson. Frankly if he really gave a damn he would have done this apology, properly, LAST WEEK instead of that previous piss-poor attempt to sweep the issue under the rug. Not to mention I can count on more than one hand how many times he's been wrong.

To me, the man who constantly slandered French-Canadian players and Europeans alike, who basically opened the door for people to attack PK Subban for no reason, and generally made assumptions on whatever, turtled when confronted by the 3 fighters he wrongfully accused. Sounds a bit like his career eh.

All bark, no bite, and very loud jackets.

Would have been nice of the CBC to force him to apologize to PK last year when Habs fans complained he was basically putting out a hit on the kid...since PK would have never asked for such, basically brushing off the old coot's soap box babble speech as "aww that's just Don Cherry, I'm a fan too y'know". And if Cherry really cared about what the kids were supposedly learning from him, he'd remove his videos glorifying fights and headshots. Frankly Crotchety's Corner should have been shut down a long time ago... Me yelling at my brother to change the fucking channel won't shut him down.

On the other hand, how cool would it be to have Stu "the Grim Reaper" Grimson as your attorney?
