I'm suddenly reminded of Vladimir Guerrero, who couldn't speak a single word of English or French, but Montreal sure embraced the guy when he was putting up 40 homers. (yes, I know that's only baseball and it's a weak analogy, but it just goes to show what can happen when players perform very well.)

Oh well .. it's been an interesting season (especially since the Olympics) and the future looks bright. The Gainey coaching era ends - the Carbo years begin. -

I can't believe how hard my heart is thumping !!!! God I love this team !!!!!!!!!!! Hold onto your shorts gang - it's going to be a helluva night !!!!!!!!!! -
I get a sense that everyone in the NHL has enormous respect and admiration for Gainey -- for the honest, hard way he played and for the calm, dignified way he approaches the game today. Even the refs, when they approach Gainey - approach with respect - partly because he was probably the LEAST whiny player of all time. I thought Gainey's status might take a hit after that Olympic loss (when Gretzky was benched in the shootout), but with this playoff season, so far, the legend of Monsieur Bob grows by the day.

The only things in the bag are the first 2 games and Souray's purple pills.

Thank god the damn period is over. Killing that stoooppid 5-on-3 to start the 3rd will give the boys a hell of a lot of momentum - and a win. -

This is sooooooooooooooo sweet !!!!!! Yes, a 3-goal lead can evaporate quickly, but at this point of the season, I don't think the Habs know how to let up defensively. Unbelievable -- it took doofus Cherry just 4 words of Coach's Corner to say the word "Leafs." -

It's probably much too early to say such a thing, but killing that 5-on-3 in the first period could stand up as the defining moment of the series.
