From another board
Summary of article for those of you who don't speak French:
The riots last night was the work of "small organized groups" that specifically targeted police forces, Yvan Delorme stated at a Montreal Police Force press conference today.
Sixteen individuals, including three minors, were arrested on charges ranging from mischief to armed assault. There will be more arrests to follow.
The police also requested that individuals that filmed the events come forward and submit as much footage of the looting as they can in order to help identify suspects.
Sixteen police vehicles were damaged, among them five were set on fire, and will cost approximately $500 000 to fix.
Ten stores were looted and one citizen's car was seriously vandalized. The police force's plan will be reevaluated today.
Yeah it was too bad. It was nice on St. Denis. I watched the game at home, and spent about 20 minutes looking out over the street watching fans and flags and cars honking going by. It was such a serene and happy time. This was before I found out about the rioting though...
Carey Price: 4-3, 2 SO, 2.09 GAA, .925 SV%
Cristobal Huet: 3-3, 0 SO, 2.96 GAA, .909 SV%
But it all comes down to the pressure-cooker tonight in DC!
Also, I only said bad things in the Panic and Frustration thread, nowhere else! I held strong!
I hope we play the Rangers because I will be in New York for Game 3 (this Sunday?) hopefully so that would be AWESOME to cheer on Les Glorieux in MSG.
ALSO does anyone know the schedule?
It's going to be 21 degrees celsius on Saturday. I don't care. I'm going to be wearing every Habs thing I own. Including a tie. I'm going to sacrificing a poutine. And make a pilgramage to the Forum so I can draw my own blood and write go habs go on the sidewalk. Then I'm going to the Church of Saint Jude on St. Denis to pray. They have a tv so I'll prob watch it there.
