TBL seems like the fastest team the Habs have faced 

Probably…at least across all the lines… 

 

remember these guys are way over the cap… this is basically a stacked team.

I have you beat by four years, we arrived here in '77, just in time for the 77-78 season!

I found Vegas seem faster, but Toronto and Vegas slowed down as the series went on.  
 

This is also the first final for most of the Habs, most of Tampa were there last year.  I imagine some nerves are in play right now.

Wow, that was funny.  Every Bolt Gally skated by while going to the bench totally went out of their way to chirp him.  It's like they all hate his guts already so Gally will hopefully draw lots of penalties.

All in all I’m very satisfied how the game has gone so far. 
 

This is a team that is built different. 
 

But rest assured they will adjust. 
 

One thing I did notice is that they are purposely trying the extra pass. It seems that they want to beat Vasilefsky by catching him going the wrong way.

The galley penalty was weak a but it was about third one on him… the first one was when he was breaking through the middle without the puck and was completely tackled… no call… I think the refs wanted To settle it down.

Thats why I like when the Habs have the PK in the last min of a period.  i.e. the other team runs out of time.  When the game resumes it takes the other team a while to get momentum going again.  Most penalties in the last min of a period dont result in a goal.
