As Price walked away towards the bench to ready himself for OT, I saw the black cloud return. But it wasn't the same "why me" black cloud that we've seen after every game he plays standing on his head yet still loses. It was the black cloud that formed over his head from the smoke of the fire in his eyes, baby! And as he went into the shootout, gloving down a Blake Wheeler shot and throwing it away like he was saying "take this puck and shove it up your ass, motherfucker", there was no doubt it was going to be a win.
Bergeron misses.
Price makes Recchi's shot dissapear like magic.
WIN!
And 42 saves, protecting a 1 goal lead for 59.5 minutes against a desperate Bruins team that RDS kept reminding us haven't scored in 8.9 periodes of hockey, he once again grabbed the first star and made Team990's morning show sound like a bunch of fucktards.
WOO MOTHERFUCKER WOO!
- Bergeron (not Patrice) will be the death of me.
- Tommy Pyatt! Ryan White! Both fit right in with Big Brother Andrei. Finally, he got some linemates that could keep up and be defensive just in case he fucks up.
- Oddly enough Glen Metropolit was on the ice with him instead to convert on his work for the only goal. Must have been between a line change.
- And Pricey wasn't the only one possessed out there, Andrei was everywhere.
- Finally, finally, finally the guys were playing well around Carey. Still managed to get squirrely near the end though...
- POWERPLAY SUCKS YO! BERGERON YOU'RE NOT HELPING!
- Seriously, waive the man, call up Weber. He was better defensively, has the same shot, costs about the same, and could use the "baptism by fire" method we've been giving to Price and Patches (who's playing like a beast these days...how about that whole shift with the helmet off? Scared me when he willingly took a hit on the glass though).
- Carle was a bit better tonight but what the hell was he doing out there on OT juggling at the blue line, Martin?! Are you trying to kill us?!
- Again MAB on the PK? Martin officially nuked the fridge.
- Gomez on the PK though: DO WANT!
- Please don't be hurt, Spacek. Please don't be hurt.
- Guimauve was meh tonight for the most part. Didn't even see much of his epic board battles.
- Lapierre BLAH BLAH BLAH, hey he wasn't going to fight and waste 5 minutes of his time.
- Please win faceoffs. You owe Price a shutout because of faceoff suck.
- Bruins have swine flu. STAY AWAY! (Ok just Krejci).
- Paul Mara had an epiphany, erased Tuesday's fuck ups. Thank ye Lord!
- Hal Gill is slow, yea, but have you ever watched Chara skate...? Also what happened to him shooting from the point? I thought he fixed his shoulder.
- Chara vs Gio: was waiting for this since he came to town. And it was hilarious!
- As the Bs got frustrated, we saw more of the 4th line. Which was frankly probably the better Bruins line for the most part. Though the pushy shovey between Gorges and Begin ended in giggles.
- Please don't get smoked by Blake Wheeler of all people, Gorges my dear. Jesus Price saves! And gets a head pat by White.
- Only in the IIHF can someone score a goal by passing it through the side of the net guys. Deal with it.
- Intentional offside my ass.
- Hilarity of the night: Someone threw glasses on the ice at the ref. Hey isn't that a penalty? :D
- Bob, please give Pleky a contract extension for Christmas?
- One of Price's best games of his young career, coincidentally landing on win #50.
- Habs mood: COCKY! Price's swagger is infectious. That shootout was short and epic. Fuck the Bruins.
Oh, and because of the win tonight, our Bruins friend Sarah Connors gets to wear the barberpole! And the wager is to raise money for Hockey Fights Cancer.
