This is the same kid that last year most people here were willing to throw in a deal to get Vinny. God i'm glad that didn't happen!!

Is THAT ever a good point! HAHAHa.. :):D

Can you believe this kid?

Can you believe this team?

So.. boston took out both Bouchey and Giroux tonight.. unreal.. Philly is running out of players.. I kind of hope there is a miracle and Philly beats Boston.. they will have nothing left in the tank.

Yeah, Philly would be ideal: our entire run has been built upon feasting on dubious netminding, which Philly has, just like usual. If by some miracle we do win game 7, my biggest fear is Rask bringing his 'A' game and stoning us.

Subban will make Bergeron redundant next season - although due to cap issues we might actually see him replacing Hamrlik and Gauthier keeping Bergeron around as a cheap PP specialist.

I looked at the cap numbers today and Hamrlik is as good as gone. There is just no way to bring the core

of this team back (Pleks and Halak) and keep Hammer.

It's funny how we slide over the near world economic meltdown nearly triggered by Greece's balance of payments... and focus on dem dere Habs. Seems reasonable to me!

Can you wait for game 7. How tough to march into the Pits and steal game 7. C'mon Les Guys!!!

For the record, Pouliot played 3 shifts after the Crosby goal before being benched. He didn't play after Laps' penalty.

Hammer has been heroic for us. He carried the load for Markov at the beginning and at the end. Our whole D has been just wonderful. What a gang!

He must be feeling soooo bad. Poor kid. JM had some good things to say about him recently encouraging him to play with more confidence.

I am awful impressed with our coaching.

The Pens just have caught Spacek's virus

They are sick to their stomach

Let's see if we can tip them over!! :P:P

OMG

Crosby and Malkin must have so much pressure

I'm sure they thought they would easily win because GILL was out tonight

Yet they lost

Now what ???

The coaching has been FANTASTIC. Indeed, practically everything has been.

It's fairly clear to me that, contrary to what his critics think, Martin wants young players to do well. But he is adamant that they do it on his terms, which are the right terms: hard work, consistency, commitment, team play, discipline. Look at the praise he's heaped on Lapierre and even A. Kostitsyn; look how O'Byrne is quietly flourishing. You can almost see the light bulb going of in Lappy's head. For too long, this team had a toxic culture that failed to reward the virtues Martin insists on. But hoo boy, do things ever look sweet right now.

I thought OB was doing really well too, and his judicious playing of MAB has been good, while he seems to be gently encouraging AK alright and his skill sure came in handy tonight! And Lappy is blooming. WHat a play!

He has certainly got the machine humming and coming back from adversity.

game SEVCan you imagine us winning SEVEN

Is anybody other than me wondering what this D could accomplish if we had Spacek, Gill, Markov AND Subban all playing healthy? Add to that the phenomenal Josh Gorges and the mostly solid O'Byrne, and holy crap, that's a ferocious defence corps!

I just can't get over this happy-Habs-fan feeling. I don't want it to end ^_^

Subban. 29+ TOI.

Like.... It's dumbfounding. From the looks of it, the Habs went the right road with him, keeping him in Hamilton as long as they could. Now, though, he's NHL material.

And does anyone remember that time when every pre-season lineup prediction had the following:

Gorges - 6th dman

Gill - 7th dman

Boy oh boy were we all wrong.

This is a good time.

I thought it was just me! It's impossible for us to be doing this dang well. What a good feelling. :clap::P:P

WE have a great deal to be proud of with these guys.
