  1. how is slegr only getting $800,000? Has he really deteriorated that much.

    No matter I guess... I'll tell you one thing though - out here in mass people are incredibly confident about this series, but there is a funny thing about boston fans which I think comes mostly from Red Sox: Boston fans are always kind of expect their teams to find a way to lose. I think Montreal fans always expect their teams to find a way to win (at least the als, of late, and the habs). You can tell that somewhere in the back of their heads the bruins fans are waiting for bill buckner to lace up his skates.

  2. the salaries are in US dollars. The problem, however, is that you can't get an exact idea of what the habs paid for those US dollars as the exchange rate changes over the course of the year and Canadian teams have exchange departments that try to buy US dollars at opportune times. They might have bought at 71 cents or maybe at 79, or even some at 71 and some at 79, so you don't know what multiplier to use to find the relative cost.

  3. actually i think this game proved that the habs aren't gonna get sweeped. Do you think Burke could do that two games in a row? Do you think the habs played well enough between 8 pks and a bigger team to win a few? This game showed that the habs have grit and theo was solid. We lost, that sucks... but the habs are firing on all cylinders.

  4. As far as the last time all the canadian teams were in the playoffs: 1986 is not exactly correct.

    1986 was the last year there were 6 canadian teams in the playoff. That year there were 7 canadian teams (winnipeg and quebec were still around, no ottawa). I have no idea when the last time all the available canadian teams were in the playoffs.

  5. the habs are really hot right now, but I have a feeling that the 2 games vs. the devils will balance themselves out, probably 1 win and 1 loss. No matter, the habs are going to keep surprising a lot of people
