  1. Was at the game last night.. Agree with Trizzak, def mark of a young team. When end they got the 4 min power play you can sense that they took the gas off the pedal. A more mature team would have know that several make up calls were gonna be heading their way so they better take advantage of it. Figured the coaching staff told them that much when they called the time when the 4 min power play was given to them. I thought price looked fine. He was on until the team went south. Drouin played like dog poop (quoting my 6yr old). But that Domi kid...?
  2. We are one for one on our New York family Hockey pilgrimage. My little 6yr old got handed a game stick signed by Jeff Petry to boot!! Safe to say he’s a fan for life.
  3. Here’s my feedback from watching them live: The team is relentless once they wake up. They are capable of putting tremendous pressure on the opponent. Gallagher, Domi, Jesperi and Drouin are all legit top six forwards. I particularly paid more attention to Max and Kotka since I hadn’t seen them live before. Kotka is a big and plays big too. His skating is solid and he has tremendous body positioning. On D, i was impressed with both Ouellett and Juulsen. Both played the body very well and held their ground when needed. Overall entertaining game. Kids had a blast. My little guy weaseled his way into getting a signed stick from Jeff Petry!! Off to MSG tomorrow!!
  4. Morning everyone! With the elections here on Tuesday and the kids off of school, I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to spend the night in NYC and take my kids to both games. They stayed up late and made signs, packed their overnight bad and wore their jerseys to school today! I have two questions for you. Are any of you attending either games and is there a spot that fans typically meet up before the games (both Manhattan and Brooklyn)? Also, would you happen to know which hotel they stay at? I haven't booked a room yet and thought it would be cool if my 6 yr old could magically run into his idol (HUGE Brendan Gallagher fan) Thanks!!
  5. Who are these misfits and what did they do to the Montreal Canadiens????? All kidding aside those last 8 minutes were the most exciting 8 minutes of hockey i have seen in years. They play hard, they are relentless and they play with jam. Biggest tell all sign? When Price skated to the bench to congratulate Jesperi for his first goal. That action speaks volumes about the cohesiveness of the group. I might be shooting my load a little early but we may be witnessing something special..
  6. Not game relevant but considering it was a proud dad moment I thought i'd write this anyway. During a commercial break, the Sonar the Wolf (Wolfpack mascot) shows up in our row and approaches my Habs clad 6yr old. Arena camera crews pan in on the little guy and splatter him on the big screen. The wolf offers my kid a Wolfpack t-shirt, to which my boy politely declines by shaking his head. Wolf tries again, kid waves his finger at him. Third time same result. Wolf decides to leave the t-shirt on his armrest and walks away. Kid rolls it into a ball and launches it at him. Arena erupts. I tear. My kid is my hero.
  7. Go up 1-0. Fall asleep at the wheel for 3 min and all of a sudden it’s 1-3... So sloppy
  8. Thanks for getting that for me!
  9. Hey Brian, Did they happen to give you the odds for them making the playoffs? I'd be curious to know that.
  10. WAKE UP HABSWORLD!! THE SKY HAS FALLEN!! Seriously need some immediate feedback from our resident experts. Anyone have them on speed dial?? I figured with the cuke in BC and a Pacific time zone he’d at least be awake.
  11. We will watch but I feel guilty. I created a die hard Habs fan in Bruins/Rangers territory. My poor six year old eats sleeps and breaths the CH. Problem is he goes into a full meltdown every time they get scored against; let alone lose. I'm such a bad father.
  12. God bless you for even considering it. Its never an easy decision to bring someone into your home for an extended period of time. It’s a major undertaking and hopefully the kids values and appreciates it. That being said, if you get yourself a good kid I can almost guarantee you it will help you child in the long run. Having a role model to emulate can be very rewarding.
  13. Not just any two ex Habs. Two castaways.
  14. Oh I always liked Lars too. I’m happy for them and the Caps overall. Well deserved.
  15. DSP ties it. Larry with the lead. Can we handle any any more salt to wound???
  16. Carr has Vegas 25 goal scorer written all over him
  17. Did he just touch the trophy or are my eyes deceiving me?????
  18. Color me super excited!!! Pleaaaseeeee dear God!!!
  19. My sentiment exactly my friend. May Toronto never have a lead thoughtout this series. God I loathe them..
  20. And that my friends epitomizes our whole season ?
