It's me, Dr. Ni...er, St. Paddy with my first ever FHF bloggy posty thingy!
Habs: the final frontier. These are the musings of the blogship FHF - the next generation. Its
Episode 3: After watching their tri-coloured warriors barely escape the hostile planet Washington DC with their lives (not so lucky with their dignity however), the FHFers prepare to behold their beloved Habs as they continue their treacherous journey to yet another volatile location. A subspace (internet) transmission was received that New York was ripe for the taking as its King Henry had led his team to another foreign land and just like the Habs, barely escaped. The latest report is their aircraft was having a tough time gaining traction for take-off due to extreme splooging in the CotU. It appears that most of the crew of the HMCS Habitant have been infected by some alien virus or are hungover from the annual 'set your ray guns to stun' party on the holodeck, but most FHFers still hold faith (though already waning) in their team. Will their token alien crew member the Schlemko be released from sick bay in time to assist with the melting core of this team? Time will tell. Stay tuned.
It's a pleasure and an honour to sit in the captain's chair while moe and 29 head down to the surface to bang green aliens. Seriously, moe and 29 are very

Take a listen. The original is a classic and I'm a huge Johnny Cash fan, but I love a good and distinct cover song.
50 Years ago today, Che Guevara was defeated and executed the following day.
3 days before his defeat, there were several UFO sightings off the coast of Shag Harbour on the south shore of Nova Scotia. Coincidence? And yes, we have a place called Shag Harbour.
Pro Tips
Might I take this opportunity to stress the importance of knowing the face off time of your hockey game. For example, if the puck drops at 820pm, the time elapsed between that point and when the game clock hits 2:51 or so actually counts and goals scored against your team during that time actually count against you and will show up on the final score sheet.

Hey! Welcome to the new Number One, Saint Paddy! Take a break Captain moe, SP has the con.
ReplyDeleteCan I just say, other than new guy Meat, I don't like Bergy's new D. Eric Engels mentioned the word "turnstile" in latest article. I wasn't paying close enough attention to see it but Wrong Benn did some Shelly vs. Spezza imitations apparently. And Swiss Miss I was swimming on ice a few times. I bailed after it was 4 zip, Romansuck was getting on my last nerve and gaully didn't help matters. Oh well, one more episode of Salvation and I'm caught up.
GYFHG! Make it so!!
Oh, great Trek/Habs comparison btw. Thanks!
Best recent Habs debut since Meat St Pad. very solid performance right till the end.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of CHe, its a stamp.
Nicely done St. Pad!
ReplyDeleteAt least they are showing their true colours early. No more 10-0 starts to set us up for a crash later. I don't know what to expect tonight, the Rags got hammered last night as well, both teams should be tired. Maybe a 0-0 draw, buttman cancels the shootout after both teams entire lineup including the coaches fail to score a goal. First actual tie in about 15 years?
ReplyDeleteI switched the channel after the third goal and watched old episodes of Doc Martin. A good choice me thinks.
ReplyDeleteShould get my butt off the sofa and start some Turkey fixings
Well done St. Pad!
Thanks folks. Turkey is in the oven. Veggie prep is done. Daughter 1 is working on the pumpkin pie. My fantasy football roster is looking good considering I have Drew Brees on a bye week. Taking a flyer on Flacco instead of Tyrod Taylor at QB. We'll see how that works out.
ReplyDeleteI've refrained from reading about anything from last night. In 6 days this team plays the leaf. In case you didn't hear they scored 15 goals in their first 2 games, Habs are hoping to get to 15 by the end of October.
The good news is that Striet and Hasbeansky are easily replaced. Every hardware store has orange plyons. Whatever happened to that guy from Sweden who hated Hamilton, bring him over/
ReplyDeleteHog is in for the Swiss Miss and MitCH instead of stitCHes - this is the tilt the boys who remember last Spring's early exit all had penciled on their calendars. GYFHG
ReplyDeleteand Saint Pad, tres bien fait, mon ami. FHFuckin-A FHFan blogging dude!
Seems our Habbies win record so far this season is 100% consistent with pre-game postings of kick-ass rock vids here by yours truly. So: Misbehavin it is!
ReplyDeleteMisbehavin goes out to all those in the POTUS and VPOTUS cross-hairs for taking a knee (something I would've thought our PFK might be decent enough to have done by now, but then again, he is a Canadian boy living south of the Mason-Dixon line, so perhaps that makes his hesitation somewhat understandable).
DeleteAgree.
DeleteI sat today in his atrium at the Children's actually - four-year old daughter suffering with an ear infection - and thought about how much the rest of the team must have felt like he was making them look like chumps that day he got that banner put up there. He could take this moment to stand up too, if it really is more than just about his brand.
DeleteI love PFK btw - but I do see both sides.
Deletea Canadian Black man standing up against the most important symbol of his guest country is not going to end with a visit to the White House.
DeleteFamily turkey dinner was yesterday here; tonight is Italian sausage cooked in Belgian beer, Octoberfest saurkraut and greek roasted lemon potatoes
ReplyDeleteNice. I've got to try the braised in beer sausage. We did turkey and fixings last week. Chili tonight. Tiramisu.
DeleteHa! Our menus were reversed. I made chili yesterday and chicken dinner with all the fixins' today. We don't do turkey anymore, it seems to disagree with both of us.
DeleteA nice alternative is capon.
DeleteI think I'm in for a long, long season sports-wise. Habs not looking so good, Sea Dogs rebuilding and without OBJ, my NY Giants are looking at the 1st overall pick in 2018.
ReplyDeleteLooks like OBJ is out for a while. Steelers stunk out the joint.
DeleteHometown hockey hack intro, barely a Hab shown, a few seconds of TFS™. Why show nylander and matthews, when every other player shown was Canadian born?
ReplyDeleteBoth Nylander and Shaggy have promised to go to Niagara Falls for their honeymoon.
DeleteDont know what to watch, a double header of the last ship, CHeck out the bondish girl. Or Fear the Walking Dead, as this years edition of the Habs has become.
ReplyDeleteI am sure shuffling the bottom six D and O will make all the difference.
Had some nice Carmenère earlier today and settling with an Amaretto with a splash of rum for gametime.
ReplyDeleteRDS for me.
ReplyDeleteI am a friends house whatever Pro Sports has on tap. Last night it was NBC and they said the same thing over and over and only knew the name of Alzer on the Habs. Do we have a nick, if Mountian man is a BBQ he could be a HibaCHi.
ReplyDeleteI like this rivalry.
ReplyDeleteDANO?
ReplyDeleteKing H on himself.
DeleteSSR no redemption
ReplyDeleteFuck off
ReplyDeletePatches or Toronto we will see
ReplyDeleteChallenge every, fucking goal.
ReplyDeleteFuck off
ReplyDeletewhat'd I miss?
ReplyDelete/ turns on TV
ReplyDelete/ hears "Habs have had two G called back on instant replay"
THE FUCK?
tranna
DeleteGreat effort St. Pad. Wtf is going on? Two no goals? Great goalkeeping... great game so far...
ReplyDeleteNow that the shock has worn off---
ReplyDeleteAMAZING JOB ST PAD!!!!! WOW!!!!
Look like I am out of a job. Demoted from backup QB to 3rd string special teamer on the practice squad. I deserve it though, I've been slacking
Thanks 29. It was fun putting it together. Hope the team soon learns to find the back of the net....in a style that's OK with tronna.
DeleteThanks 29. It was fun putting it together. Hope the team soon learns to find the back of the net....in a style that's OK with tronna.
DeleteNot only did Pad kick ass, he did it with a ST theme. Puts me to shame
ReplyDeleteTurkey coma cats are gold.
Deletespeaking of ST, the new one ep 3 finally has some traction. It should be called Trump Trek cause it seems like the Federation is playing fast and loose with the constitution. Ep 4 is called the Russians did it.
DeleteHope your lil' one feels better SinMtl.
ReplyDeleteThanks moeman, she is on the antibiotics and in good spirits today.
Deletecrap
ReplyDeleteOk...so far Harley looks better than Streit. The Habs look good...if skating around and overall hustle is what you want to see...if you want goals...not so much. Goals will come soon I think...
ReplyDeleteI say bullshit Toronto video calls. Nevertheless losts of positives moving forward. Not being able to score anything near the crease without a recall just makes us hungrier.
ReplyDeleteTim Bicks...hmmm beats listening to Crotch
ReplyDeleteTim Hicks...
DeleteThats a slash?
ReplyDeleteTFS! X 2
ReplyDeleteDDD does his patented ice scrapping and we get a penalty OMG!!
ReplyDeletenew line gCHuck, Leko, Dano
ReplyDeleteRight now the Habs are chasing the play and look second best out there...dont get me wrong - they look good...just the rags look more likely to score
ReplyDeleteJDR with a nose for the net
ReplyDeletesave a whale spear a zucirello
ReplyDeleteHudon, nick please looks gassed
ReplyDeleteHard-On's got my vote
Deleteaside from the refs nothing to complain about
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen gCHuck all season.
ReplyDeleteSo its not an actual holiday to trow in the UK so as 2 am rapidly approaches I am going to call.it a night. This is a good game but I don't see any goals in this for the Habs...Petry looks netter...Benn - not so much. Leko is playing very well as it Kid A. Chunky is skating well but not much else and Meat looks solid. Go you fucking Habs Go!
ReplyDeleteBBQ cleared the grill for TFS
ReplyDeleteJust tuned in to see the 2-0 goal. Think I'll check out the football game instead to see how my guys are doing.
ReplyDeleteits not time to bring them out into the parking lot, but the tanks should be getting a tune up
ReplyDeleteKnock off the negativity there Steve...3 games in and a lot of positives...along with some negatives I admit - but let's give them all some time to get it sorted out. Drouin is learning a new position, The D needs time to adjust and BBB needs to bring in someone else to help...and the kids are coming along nicely - they just need to start putting the puck into the net. Last night they did look the weaker side - even when they were dominating possession...but possession means shit without shots and goals...and that will come - hopefully against the Hawks on Tuesday.
DeleteDid we win?
ReplyDeleteSadly...non :(
DeleteToker traded by the Ducks to the Phlyers...but stays in the minors...fyi
ReplyDeleteK3x I am not a GMT expert but it seems you have done the cyle today:)
DeleteIts never to early to panic in my book, If I was Geoff I would stop building condos upground and start working on bombshelters underground. Cause if the Habs miss the playoffs this year
the Richard Riots will look like a Saturday Birthday party at Chucke Cheeze.
We are a bubble team to make the playoffs and come the Cup, it will take a Jesus moment.
New season of Curb is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteStarted binge-watching S1 and 2 of the Walking Dead recently (never cared much for zombies being taken seriously, but it keeps you watching for some unknown reason). The reason I bring it up is the Habs seem to have been hit with something akin to this, herewith known as the "Walking D" - Starring: the re-animated corpses of Mark (the SwissMiss) Streit!! Jamie (Brain-stem) Benn! and Jeff (Creampuff) Petry!
ReplyDeleteNow Benn and Harley/Hog are perhaps coming out of their slumber, but what gives with Dish? Is there something streptococcal growing in him?
The good news: Chicago visits the CotU tonight, then travels to our home opener tomorrow and at least they'll be a tad tired, if not quite as zombified as our Habs.
Three games in and our best shot at unleashing the juggernaut of our offensive potential is to go on the PK. Not an auspicious start.
no spolier but season three kinda hits a wall. The latest ep of fear the walking dead was excellent.
