And at home too! Oh the huge manatee!
RDS then had an epiphany midway through the 3rd: that the goalies have a razor thin margin of error. Wow! Just realized this now? What? Tired of blaming Price? (Who's only victories came via him basically stealing the game for them).
Though they did play better defensively tonight, blocking shots and taking care of them, the PK was spot on too but was missing those short handed chances. Even if I think Gorges, Spacek, and Hammer are playing way too many minutes and just getting beaten up day in and day out... Gorges looked so tired when he took that tripping penalty. Oh and the new guy from the Devils did a fine, simple job. I think we'll get some good minutes and work from him.
But good lord our offense is a bloody mess. No structure and no actual cohesive pressure. Nothing could really get set up or organized, and if they did, same old story: sticks in skates, passes behind, flubbed shots, missed shots, shooting wide or getting blocked.
Whatever.
Oh and after the game, Cammy was the mouthpiece of the evening. Holy crap does this man talk! Even CTV's local game weasle was like "this man just screams 'Captain'". Yea, they're still obssessed with that.
Yup.
- I'm thinking a healthy dose of Andrew Conboy could do some good for this team. He's huge, he's fast, he's mean, and he goes to the net. And he's got a song! We've got a great big CONBOY rocking through the night!
- And while your at it, CALL UP SERGEI FFS!!!
- Jokinen's moustache was frightening. On par with Don VanMoustached.
- Urge. To destroy. Benoit Brunet. Rising!
- So by looking like a mutation of the Minnesota Wild and the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Habs fail to score and run around a lot.
- I actually love these jerseys. But the boys looked wierd out there tonight. And White looked like a little boy in his. Some silly trivia on the sweaters.
- Jaro's glove was bouncy tonight.
- Phaneuf appears to have lost his eyebrows.
- At least Pleky bounces when he gets hit. If that were Tanguay, he'd have broken his aura.
- Yes, we're awesome when it's 4-on-4 hockey time. So can we get those larger rinks now?
- Apparently it's National Hit Tomas Plekanec Month.
- Kipper was yawning while making those saves.
- Damn you invisible shield over the other goal!
I'm disappointed that the NHL has decided to keep the Brodeur Rule. What a bunch of idiots...
