TFS has a CHance to win Veznia, Hart, the playoff MVP one and the Cup, maybe he asks why me tony carey.
sittin' up here watchin' all the red lights blink while Tim Peel blows the rink is turning warp speed why does it go so slow thinkin' bout the Defence I am left behind Bergy can you hear me do I have to play every game out of my mind why me? why me? I was waiting on St pad all systems were go the man up in the nose bleeds was enjoying the show then I got this feeling that I never had before hey I might get me out of here with a cup to show why me? why me? there must be a thousand other draft picks must be some others can track the puck with my eyes why am I up here, what do they see in me must be a thousand other players who could have been the franchise savior why me the last man back the third defenceman the sharp end of the spear since 93 never won again maybe it won't be back this way till 2021... but right now now I'm riding on a fountain of fire and ice with my back to the earth I go higher and higher kick faster and faster absorb the puck better and better why me? why me?
Rockin' parody, Steve. I just watched The Dirt last night and thoughts of a Crüe parody are circulating in my cerebral cortex. Can't figure out how those fuckers survived --SiM
I dug out my Expos hat to wear this upcoming week in honor of the 50th anniversary of their debut back in '69. They may return someday, I don't know if I will return to watching baseball or not.
I hope the Habs don't take barfalo for granted, they are not an easy out.
must win #3/6! gyfhg! GYFHG!!!!!! arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!!!!!!!! druid checked in, domini checked in, kidG checked in, bbq and 4WD checked in... now its your turn leko!!!!
(you guys see the stats? we are now 50.9% and the bjs down to 54% i think?
Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO Go Hab GO GO YOU FUCKING Habs GO
Had a curling bonspiel, just caught up on DVR. Poor 1st Good 2nd minus a couple of lapses. Domini having a hell of a game. SSR too and Leko looking great on that line, driving the net amd everything. kidA with his career best 32nd. 4th line chipping in. Just need Druid to play smarter with his Finnish linemates. I would also say TFS 'overplayed' the pp goal. But hey up one with 20 to go. Keep the foot on the gas. JFW.
Why the fuck do we get stuck with Greg Millen? Man's not good at the job and sounds like an idiot and is obviously a Habs hater. Fucking SFU would never hire a former Hab I suppose. A real Montreal guy I mean.
Watched the first two periods - some good efforts but not by Drouin. He should sit for the third...no Butler after he lost the puck before the sabres goal.
Hey gang, caught the first two periods visiting people with an actual cable TV subscription and heard the third on TSN690. I love Sergio and Robertson - the former saying SSR lost his mind, but the latter reminding him he did that himself sometimes too. That's the stuff the Mediots in COTU don't even try to provide. Fuck 'em. They deserve that swingset, totally! MEANWHILE, back at the ranch, what a gutsy goal by Leko? Can't say he doesn't work for his goals. Watched Druid bringing the puck all the way in, beautifully, hanging on too long (WHY?) with teammates in great position for him to pass to them in Sabres' zone, but petering out and not busting his ass to cover for his own botched play. Then it's 3-2, then 15 seconds later it's 3-3 and you almost felt the whole team buckle. Not cool, Druid! He is either as selfish as that play made him look, or being a dumb-ass and caring what the french media think if he doesn't pull a Guy Lafleur super-star move there.
All that aside, Domi and SSR and KidA and TFS and Dish and Leko and BBQ in particular really came out hard and it paid off.
GREAT WIN, BOYS!
The fuckin' Canes had an easier third period in their game, and no travel afterward, so I have to give them the edge over our Habs in tonight's game. That said, I'd love to see what CHud and Fiver and Radar might do with their rested legs, if CJv2 might want to rest Druid, KidKo (sorry but looking somewhat gassed), and Folin.
Rotation, its natural. The fourth line is going, only the third is half assesd. I would bring Kale up, he is very healthy. Our D is playing like a dog chasing cars.
So I say...change nothing...every time cj tinkers they tend to fuck up...no one is tired at this point ...it's do or die so no one needs resting. CHANGE NOTHING! this game is 100 times more important than last night. If the Habs want the show, they need to win tonight.
Its also a metaphycisal battle between good and evil at the ownership leve. The whalercanes are owned by the Payday Loans founder, the Habs are owned by beer. Loansharking evil, beer good.
K3X, your prescription has merit as well. Knowing CJv2's habits, safe bet this will be the line-up again tonight, unless SSR got concussed again.
I noticed the Sportsnet highlights of their win yesterday were evenly split between the game action and some dumb-ass basketball-hockey hijinx (reminiscent of the Four on The Floor sketch lampooning the Olympics with cross-sport ideas like Basejavelin and Tennis Hockey). If van Reimesdyke injured his ankle doing that jump-shot on skates it would serve him right. Kids don't try this at home woulda been nice. I fully expect one of them to hop into a monster truck on ice one of these days. I imagine Skinner at the wheel, thinking he knows what he's doing, only to pull a roll-over into the crowd, injuring several (and getting huge hurrahs from the morons attending at the same time). Don Cherry, broken clock, kinda got it right on calling them on this schtick.
We watched Triple Frontier on Netflix last night, pretty cool heist movie. A tip: turn off your logic button before starting.
Great game from Mini Max last night, he was on a mission, as was kidG, SSR and Sauce. Drouin though ... that guy's head is somewhere in the fucking clouds, what a floater.
Love it when you can say: Habs win, leaf lose, it just has such a nice ring to it. Fuck you CotU leafool fanboy media hacks.
I could agree to a sitting on the road I suppose...except that CJ doesn't know how to do a 1-4-1 sitting. He would sit Drouin,.then bring in someone, switch line 2 with line 4, put KotK on with Peca then switch KidA with SSR and the clusterfucking would start all over again...so I say again...CHANGE NOTHING...JFW...OGAAT...GYFHG!
1. net full of tuna! hahhahahhaha! lets hope they catch lots more of that! 2. leko: yeah, i was thinking the same thing! nobody is saying anything about that effort except that he 'scored.' no. that was an especially telling play he finished cause 'he's european.' its great hes got that killer goal scoring instinct. will only do good heading forward. 3. whos fiver and who is radar? (everytime i hear radar, i think of dish, but thats not who u guys are referring to; oh... and u guys hear that bit about the best voted nicknames? which are our best?) 4. i watched the whole thing last night. i usually dont really see your guy's point. maybe its me out here west and i simply dont get it, but i think on the whole, it wasnt that bad. if it was bob cold, u guys would be bitchin even worse! 5. i think u guys otta lay off on druid. dont be like everybody else and go for the easy critiques. yeah. sure, he gave up the puck at the blueline, but so what? u dont score goals by doing the safe thing and dumping it in every time. i have absolutely no problem with that play. u need your playmakers doing risky things to generate chances. having said that, THE ONLY THING u guys (& anybody else) has a right to be angry about is that he dogged it chasing back. u give up the puck, its your bloody well responsibility THAT GUY doesnt create a scoring chance against you. anybody with a cup winning mentality wouldnt think otherwise. 5. do you guys think the reason why jabba never does a 1:1 switch is b/c he doesnt want to send a direct message? by doing a 1:1 switch plus a complete rejigging, do you think he is trying to shelter the guy coming out?
Fiver = Deslauriers (after a guy seen on the $5CDN note) Radar = Reilly (for Radar O'Reilly of M*A*S*H fame)
4. The anti-MTL bias of COTU is something we are possibly more sensitive to out here. Our neighbours and voisins are notoriously better-informed about les Glorieux and hockey generally, and it's laughable how little the Mediot mind understands its own bias. For us, it's as different as PMJT eloquence vs. Doug Ford, as Elvis Costello lyrics vs. Brian Adams, as... you get the picture. 5(a). Druid is so GCHuckish that way, eh? Lesson for all GMs: if Yzerman has soured on a player, it ain't for nothin. But if Grant McCagg is right, this is the point of the season the Druid works his most potent spells. Let's see if we get a great bounce back game from him tonight. 5(b). Good take. As a coach, CJv2 is respected. As a man, doubly so.
OLEG, I think you should make a viking ship and burn your love for Halak in it. However I agree with you about the Druid, this guy is a young wizard who does not know his power
Pretty exciting, first game broadcast in Cree on APTN tonight. I like watching in Punjabi from time to time, I think I will give this a listen too. Bonus I don't need to hear the Rogers crew disrespecting the Habs.
That said I give props to the Brian Mudryk/Dave Poulin duo on the tsn broadcasts.
Thing with Druid is that he is a floater. He reminds me if those guys I grew up with who had loads of talent and could stick handle in a phone box...but never back checked. He doesnt get have the cred to be A floater...float when you are a 40 goal scorer and I won't give a shit. I should also qualify all I. Moment on by saying.."but what do I know" I didn't see the Habs scoring many goals this year - didn't see Domi doing what he has done and didn't know that Tuna would be so good...and KidA with potentially a 35 goal season...so clearly I know nothing and bbb is a genius
He and Domini and PleXXX are birds of a FHFeather, it comes to knowing what it means to wear the Saint Flanelle. God didn't get in the way of Trestman being an amazing Als coach, and I don't think Josh is that religious. If he's angling for a job in the CH organization, I should think Geoff could do far worse than to find something for the man who put his body in harms' way for the CH as often as your or I take a piss.
Little factoid: there was a time, some ten years hence, I was working for GlobalPayments, calling out to small business owners across Canada to arrange swaps of their PoS terminals (CHIP readers being the new breed over MSR). Anyway, one day I found myself speaking with a Gorges in Kelowna, BC, and wouldn't you know, the second I asked if there was perhaps a relation, the man lit up with praise for how the CH and Montreal embraced his nephew, and how awesome it was to think their boy was a leader on this team, getting more love from franco-quebecois(e) than anybody out there thought imaginable. Heartwarming moment for me. Always think of that ten-minute phone call when 'ol Josh turns up. The two solitudes are one when love for the CH is involved.
yeah, oops, that would be point-of-sale terminals. Card readers. There were a couple of people who proudly laughed in my face at the very thought they would use them crazy things - they still swore by the SCHHHHHICK-SCHHHHICK manual card-readers, with carbon-paper receipts, and were not in the least interested in using something as fancy as an EFT (electronic funds transfer) device. And as for those fucking job-killing U-Scan machines...!
I am supposed to be doing my taxes... But them square things is awesome, in theory. I am a bit late to mobile tech, but am forced to try to support Webex Meet App without the benefit of an employer-provided device or dataplan - but that's for another blog.
I use webex for work all the time...i work for a global it infrastructure supplier and our security mandate is ridiculous for meetings ..so highly recommend it.
Two points of honour, google search shows girl for the first image. I dont like this. Second I never until this gif found Rachel kinda Rachel Rachel.
Speaking of honour. We toss around that word like a Trump defence. For me this game is a sudden death elimination and death means no re spawn. We tolerated Max Patch forever and he never came through. gCHuk maybe less but there is some truth. So tonite we will see who is a player and who is a pretender and no matter how hard it be, lets dump the shit. Yeah I am an ancient oak and I am looking straight at a Drouid
Dinner is going to be something exceptional. Beef roast seared in the pan then cooked in the oven with Yorshire pudding and vegies to die for. If I was a younger guy, I would problably have a food emission.
guys im torn... here out west, there is a MNT match vs french guiana at the same time. if they dont win 3-0 or better then ill wave the white flag that we really stink, but ive always considered us no worse than the socceroos and better than the all whites (both of which have been to a few WC's btw...)
i really wanna go instead of typing angry msgs only to steve. u guys know a way to watch replays online? to boot, if i went, i wanna wear my habs jersey dt to piss off the locals who will have no clue why im doing it (vs cbj).
I gotta say I cant hear anything because I am blasting whats left of my eardrums out. I can still type but it could fall under acoustic influence, if it every became court worthy.
Pixies and Sugar over here. I needed some decent music after watching The Dirt (never liked them after stealing all their best ideas from others - even Husker Du's umlauts, FFS!) Decent, amusing bio-pic, meanwhile. And my old buddy Stéphane Giroux, who in those days was a music scene reporter, vouches for the veracity of the debauchery depicted. Shit! Even when I was a young fucker, there's no way I coulda.
Hurricanes are 4-0 in their last 4 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game. Hurricanes are 9-0 in their last 9 games playing on 0 days rest. Canadiens are 0-6 in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Le Club de Hockey Canadien has scored over 22,000 goals in its history. 23 more Cups than the franchise they are facing tonight. If you want stats, that is.
I pay exactly zero attention to stats. Stats are for guys who never played the game. Sometimes they pan out but mostly they are for non hockey players . .
I just was thinkingboot something big. For all the wonderful lyrics, and sound our rockers deliverd nothing at the door of freedom. Like Shakespheare said a lot of sound and noise signifying nothing. I know a Russian guy who lived through Gorby and Yelstin in real time Moscow. I asked him if the Beatles had any effect and he laughed. The reason the Soviet union fell IHHO was because the people became convinced that they could live better under capitalism. He has been living 20 years in Canada and his opinion now is that this was a lie.
Now that we are sure Trump is only an asshole and not a Russian collaberator I feel free to repeat what my daddy taught me. A good stream is golden http://onhockey.tv/
I just went to take a pee and the music stopped. A very fem voice in my head said " recharge headset" How did she know my battery was dead. I invested my life savings in a faraday cage and some chick is telling me this?
Well well well (that my inner Haratio speaking) we seem to have a big talent who cant find the gaol. We have been here before my friends, good old patches was the same condumdrum. How long do we wait for the Drouid to see the soltice?
Time to take revenge for Saku's eye, good vs evil, fuck buttman's shit southern teams.
I don't like technology, I still use cash but begrudgingly will use a credit/debit card. I have no idea what moe, SiM and K3X are talking about.
oleg, Drouin is a bigger version of DDD but doesn't clean the ice with his ass as often but, is still protected by his heritage.
The left wing crowd is in a tizzy because Trump can't be connected to Russian oligarchs. I don't like the President and think he is a blustering buffoon but, hey, get over it and move on. Beat him at the ballot box in 2020 ... the 'mericans will never convict a sitting president.
Same thing with Justin and SNC - much ado about nothing. I'm more concerned that we Maritimers are cut off from the rest of Canada by Quebec. No pipelines allowed. I say we cut Quebec off from dulse and Moosehead beer. That will hurt them...
dont let the 113 count fool u. this isnt really ice cream. we were up to 60-70 something last night.
and i resent ure comment slagging druid by making fun of DDD. untouchable as far as im concerned. legend status just like baby bure, the mexicant, samsonov, mikeyribs, audette, brierre, DLR, n8...
drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck.

curtis macilheny. curtis F***ING macilheny! that is what the hurricanes have been riding this year!?! omg, im gonna barf. never forget boys. they blew a series lead. that was the year they SHOULDA gone all the way with gilmour leading the way! take care you sour cherry idiots!
(u guys know what im talking about with sour cherry right?)
Hey Steve, regarding Newfoundland oil, good question. I'm not sure why the Irvings don't buy a local product, apparently the majority of NL oil goes to Trumpland just like Alberta tar. The Irving refinery gets the majority of it's oil from the Middle East by ship and the Bakken oilfields in the Dakotas by train ... and we know the risks there. It's ironic that Quebec won't let a pipeline through to NB but will gladly take Alberta's oil money in transfer payments.
Yep on the surface a pipeline to the east makes sense, but there isn't a refinery that can refine the sludge out of Alberta. I highly doubt the Irvings spend $1B or so to build one (*note - I hauled that number out of my ass, I have exactly zero idea what it would cost). And I doubt there is a federal government willing to foot the bill for the east coast.
Anyway, fuck big oil. But can you get an 800hp engine from the wind or sun. #connundrum
im watchin on the carolina feed. they just flashed an ad: lower bowls starting at $40USD!
1. uh.... why are tickets NOT sold out yet? 2. this is riddiculous. even with their garbage season, the canucks ask for something like $45 for uppers! f-me.... i wish i lived down there in ARZ, CAR, ANH sometimes...
Watching on RDS, even though I understand very little French it's refreshing to not have to listen to the SFUckers talk shite about the Habs and I haven't heard the word 'leaf' once. I swear!
Get a nice large-ish tortilla (not pesto or sundried tomato), spread nutella on one half, peanut butter on the other, place a banana in the centre, roll, eat.
WHO MADE THAT COMMENT ABOUT THAT STUPID MUSTARD SUIT?!? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMHU4_ljghU
i just jogged my memory and yep. and ive concluded i am STILL entitled to be angry! that shoulda been a 3-1 series lead going to the finals dammit! arrrrrrrrgh! that was an all-star line-up wasted! f********!
Love the wall! JFW!
ReplyDeleteTFS has a CHance to win Veznia, Hart, the playoff MVP one and the Cup, maybe he asks why me tony carey.
ReplyDeletesittin' up here
watchin' all the red lights blink while Tim Peel blows
the rink is turning
warp speed
why does it go so slow
thinkin' bout the Defence I am left behind
Bergy can you hear me
do I have to play every game
out of my mind
why me?
why me?
I was waiting on St pad
all systems were go
the man up in the nose bleeds
was enjoying the show
then I got this feeling
that I never had before
hey I might get me out of here
with a cup to show
why me?
why me?
there must be a thousand other draft picks
must be some others can track the puck with my eyes
why am I up here, what do they see in me
must be a thousand other players who could have been the franchise savior
why me
the last man back
the third defenceman
the sharp end of the spear
since 93 never won again
maybe it won't be back this way
till 2021...
but right now
now I'm riding on a fountain of fire and ice
with my back to the earth
I go higher and higher
kick faster and faster
absorb the puck
better and better
why me?
why me?

5(a). Druid is so GCHuckish that way, eh? Lesson for all GMs: if Yzerman has soured on a player, it ain't for nothin. But if Grant McCagg is right, this is the point of the season the Druid works his most potent spells. Let's see if we get a great bounce back game from him tonight.
5(b). Good take. As a coach, CJv2 is respected. As a man, doubly so.
OLEG, I think you should make a viking ship and burn your love for Halak in it. However I agree with you about the Druid, this guy is a young wizard who does not know his power
DeleteHot hamburg (med-rare) sammich with a mushroom sauce and a side of garlic-mashed.
ReplyDeleteGo you fucking Habs Go!!!
ReplyDeletePretty exciting, first game broadcast in Cree on APTN tonight. I like watching in Punjabi from time to time, I think I will give this a listen too. Bonus I don't need to hear the Rogers crew disrespecting the Habs.
ReplyDeleteThat said I give props to the Brian Mudryk/Dave Poulin duo on the tsn broadcasts.
Open the tent and let a thousand flowers grow. MTS He also said power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
DeleteThing with Druid is that he is a floater. He reminds me if those guys I grew up with who had loads of talent and could stick handle in a phone box...but never back checked. He doesnt get have the cred to be A floater...float when you are a 40 goal scorer and I won't give a shit. I should also qualify all I. Moment on by saying.."but what do I know" I didn't see the Habs scoring many goals this year - didn't see Domi doing what he has done and didn't know that Tuna would be so good...and KidA with potentially a 35 goal season...so clearly I know nothing and bbb is a genius
ReplyDeleteDruid may have the odd Lafleuresque goal once in a while, still young, needs to backcheck.
ReplyDeleteI checked out career +/- numbers and Guy's popped out, Big Bird is off the CHarts.

Wonder if Josh would like to be a coaCH, start with Laval;

I dont like people with religion on there sleave and Josh strikes me as one that believes God made him a made man.
DeleteHe and Domini and PleXXX are birds of a FHFeather, it comes to knowing what it means to wear the Saint Flanelle. God didn't get in the way of Trestman being an amazing Als coach, and I don't think Josh is that religious. If he's angling for a job in the CH organization, I should think Geoff could do far worse than to find something for the man who put his body in harms' way for the CH as often as your or I take a piss.
DeleteLittle factoid: there was a time, some ten years hence, I was working for GlobalPayments, calling out to small business owners across Canada to arrange swaps of their PoS terminals (CHIP readers being the new breed over MSR). Anyway, one day I found myself speaking with a Gorges in Kelowna, BC, and wouldn't you know, the second I asked if there was perhaps a relation, the man lit up with praise for how the CH and Montreal embraced his nephew, and how awesome it was to think their boy was a leader on this team, getting more love from franco-quebecois(e) than anybody out there thought imaginable. Heartwarming moment for me. Always think of that ten-minute phone call when 'ol Josh turns up. The two solitudes are one when love for the CH is involved.
So GYFHG! Tonight's for Gorges!
Beauty story SiM.
DeleteWhats your take on all the iPad/Square PoS(es)?
Also, too, FHFriends, PoS(es) does not refer to POS, which is a synonym for SFU.
Deleteyeah, oops, that would be point-of-sale terminals. Card readers. There were a couple of people who proudly laughed in my face at the very thought they would use them crazy things - they still swore by the SCHHHHHICK-SCHHHHICK manual card-readers, with carbon-paper receipts, and were not in the least interested in using something as fancy as an EFT (electronic funds transfer) device. And as for those fucking job-killing U-Scan machines...!
DeleteeTransfers baby!
DeleteY'all can guess the answer to my 'security' question.
I am supposed to be doing my taxes... But them square things is awesome, in theory. I am a bit late to mobile tech, but am forced to try to support Webex Meet App without the benefit of an employer-provided device or dataplan - but that's for another blog.
DeleteWebex is quite secure. I use it for some confidential/NDA training sessions.
DeleteI use webex for work all the time...i work for a global it infrastructure supplier and our security mandate is ridiculous for meetings ..so highly recommend it.
DeleteI can't reveal everything but one of the NDA partners' name rhymes with disco. calls internet lawyer
DeleteTwo points of honour, google search shows girl for the first image. I dont like this. Second I never until this gif found Rachel kinda Rachel Rachel.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of honour. We toss around that word like a Trump defence. For me this game is a sudden death elimination and death means no re spawn. We tolerated Max Patch forever and he never came through. gCHuk maybe less but there is some truth. So tonite we will see who is a player and who is a pretender
and no matter how hard it be, lets dump the shit.
Yeah I am an ancient oak and I am looking straight at a Drouid
Dinner is going to be something exceptional. Beef roast seared in the pan then cooked in the oven
ReplyDeletewith Yorshire pudding and vegies to die for. If I was a younger guy, I would problably have a food emission.
guys im torn... here out west, there is a MNT match vs french guiana at the same time. if they dont win 3-0 or better then ill wave the white flag that we really stink, but ive always considered us no worse than the socceroos and better than the all whites (both of which have been to a few WC's btw...)
ReplyDeletei really wanna go instead of typing angry msgs only to steve. u guys know a way to watch replays online? to boot, if i went, i wanna wear my habs jersey dt to piss off the locals who will have no clue why im doing it (vs cbj).
MNT sounds Kardashian to me
Delete.com/player/max-pacioretty-8474157 NHL dot com has everthing on line, good or bad
DeleteCan usually find condensed games on YouTube the day after.
DeleteJFW we need this to move forward, a loss would mean we are a year behind when our leaders are old
ReplyDeleteI gotta say I cant hear anything because I am blasting whats left of my eardrums out. I can still type but it could fall under acoustic influence, if it every became court worthy.
ReplyDeletePixies and Sugar over here. I needed some decent music after watching The Dirt (never liked them after stealing all their best ideas from others - even Husker Du's umlauts, FFS!) Decent, amusing bio-pic, meanwhile. And my old buddy Stéphane Giroux, who in those days was a music scene reporter, vouches for the veracity of the debauchery depicted. Shit! Even when I was a young fucker, there's no way I coulda.
DeleteFor me if I could be anyone in history it would be Jim Morrison, without heroin.

ReplyDeleteHurricanes are 4-0 in their last 4 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game.
ReplyDeleteHurricanes are 9-0 in their last 9 games playing on 0 days rest.
Canadiens are 0-6 in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
gawd dammit i hate stats!
math is hard- Barbie
DeleteLe Club de Hockey Canadien has scored over 22,000 goals in its history. 23 more Cups than the franchise they are facing tonight. If you want stats, that is.
DeleteThats why she talks to angels is the most underrated song in history.
DeleteI pay exactly zero attention to stats. Stats are for guys who never played the game. Sometimes they pan out but mostly they are for non hockey players . .
DeleteFirst 4 letter of analytics are FHFun. Stats, schmats!
DeleteCAR doesn't have that Cup without carving out Saku's eye.
ReplyDeleteain't it da truth! Never forget that. I hope Captain Kirk is telling that story to the boys right now. Was CJv1 coaching then?
DeleteI don't want to search for that. Still not over it.
DeleteeMpTy1.0 with an ugly fucking mustard jacket on.
DeleteI just was thinkingboot something big. For all the wonderful lyrics, and sound our rockers deliverd nothing at the door of freedom. Like Shakespheare said a lot of sound and noise signifying nothing. I know a Russian guy who lived through Gorby and Yelstin in real time Moscow. I asked him if the Beatles had any effect and he laughed. The reason the Soviet union fell IHHO was because the people became convinced that they could live better under capitalism. He has been living 20 years in Canada and his opinion now is that this was a lie.
ReplyDeleteDrop the puck already its 7pm somewhere
ReplyDeleteKidz! Good evening! I am here as a reminder that I show up for the important games. AND THIS IS A FUCKING IMPORTANT GAME
ReplyDeleteHope you're all well
29!
DeleteHoly Fuck Batmann 29 is in the house!
DeletePapa's home! A round of meth for us all!!!
DeleteVeggie burritos? tacos? Fajitas? i don't even know. veggies in a tortilla and spicy!
ReplyDeleteMad and Noisy lagered ale, delish!
There better be cheese.
Deleteanybody else watching on tsn2?
ReplyDeleteNow that we are sure Trump is only an asshole and not a Russian collaberator I feel free to repeat what my daddy taught me. A good stream is golden http://onhockey.tv/
Deletethanks for the link, but tsn2 is the MNT vs french guiana
DeleteCarbo and Vinnie on RDS.
ReplyDeleteThe KidKo and Meat relationship is pure FHFriendship.
ReplyDeleteSnow here. Its fucking late March FFS!
ReplyDeleteI just went to take a pee and the music stopped. A very fem voice in my head said " recharge headset" How did she know my battery was dead. I invested my life savings in a faraday cage and some chick is telling me this?
ReplyDeleteWell well well (that my inner Haratio speaking) we seem to have a big talent who cant find the gaol. We have been here before my friends, good old patches was the same condumdrum. How long do we wait for the Drouid to see the soltice?
ReplyDeleteHoly fuck ... you guys are on fire tonight!!
ReplyDeleteTime to take revenge for Saku's eye, good vs evil, fuck buttman's shit southern teams.
I don't like technology, I still use cash but begrudgingly will use a credit/debit card. I have no idea what moe, SiM and K3X are talking about.
oleg, Drouin is a bigger version of DDD but doesn't clean the ice with his ass as often but, is still protected by his heritage.
The left wing crowd is in a tizzy because Trump can't be connected to Russian oligarchs. I don't like the President and think he is a blustering buffoon but, hey, get over it and move on. Beat him at the ballot box in 2020 ... the 'mericans will never convict a sitting president.
Same thing with Justin and SNC - much ado about nothing. I'm more concerned that we Maritimers are cut off from the rest of Canada by Quebec. No pipelines allowed. I say we cut Quebec off from dulse and Moosehead beer. That will hurt them...
U R on fire theM. !
Deletenot to get geographic but, there seems to be some oil in newfoundland, why not refine that instead of something that resembles tar 5000 km away?
Deletedont let the 113 count fool u. this isnt really ice cream. we were up to 60-70 something last night.
Deleteand i resent ure comment slagging druid by making fun of DDD. untouchable as far as im concerned. legend status just like baby bure, the mexicant, samsonov, mikeyribs, audette, brierre, DLR, n8...
LB on RDS, 'we are ready'.
ReplyDeletelooking back at the posts I would say I have been ready since 4:22, may have peaked too soon
ReplyDeleteThis Duke-UCF game is excellent, but I am ready for hockey
ReplyDeletedrop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck. Go You Fucking Habs Go drop the fucking puck.

ReplyDeleteNice First Nations opening tribute
ReplyDeleteGYFHG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope the whaler canes have loaded up on LGBT players for tonite
ReplyDeletecurtis macilheny. curtis F***ING macilheny! that is what the hurricanes have been riding this year!?! omg, im gonna barf. never forget boys. they blew a series lead. that was the year they SHOULDA gone all the way with gilmour leading the way! take care you sour cherry idiots!
ReplyDelete(u guys know what im talking about with sour cherry right?)
sour cherry and old madien?
DeleteI do not, but I am not around as much as i used to be
Deleteno... you know how don cherry made fun of them and then they made 'bunch of jerks' t-shirt and got huge attention b/c of it?
Deleteapparently... theres a local micro-brew which made a sour cherry beer which they are serving at the arena tn... to those typical duff drinkers
I have T-shirts older than this anthem singer
ReplyDeleteshe just found out the gig was for hockey not basketball
DeleteGYFHG!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDid you guys see the basketball dunk Canes victory celebration last night? Good on them
ReplyDeleteTFS!
ReplyDeletei thought shots off the keeper's head were called dead. me wrong?
ReplyDeleteIf I am GM of the Habs no SUV single seat cars only. No passengers ever
ReplyDeleteNate Thompson? Man I gotta read a Gazette or something
ReplyDeleteYou may have to google Folin and Weal...
DeleteI heard of that Weal guy! He showed up in some TSN highlights. This Thompson dude however is a mystery
DeleteMore of an enigma, like Hunter S.
DeleteI musta been on drugs, JAbba has been our coach for 6 seasons?
ReplyDeleteUCF up by 2 late. But im watchng hockey i swear
ReplyDeleteOooh I am watching a fox feed or something and they just burned Cpt Kirk
ReplyDeletethey do have the puck tracer. When this first came out I thought I was having flashbacks and went to the doctor.
DeleteHey Steve, regarding Newfoundland oil, good question. I'm not sure why the Irvings don't buy a local product, apparently the majority of NL oil goes to Trumpland just like Alberta tar. The Irving refinery gets the majority of it's oil from the Middle East by ship and the Bakken oilfields in the Dakotas by train ... and we know the risks there. It's ironic that Quebec won't let a pipeline through to NB but will gladly take Alberta's oil money in transfer payments.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the Habs came to play tonight. GYFHG!!
all these oil discussions will be a moot point shortly. The electric car is the worlds Kid Ko
DeleteYep on the surface a pipeline to the east makes sense, but there isn't a refinery that can refine the sludge out of Alberta. I highly doubt the Irvings spend $1B or so to build one (*note - I hauled that number out of my ass, I have exactly zero idea what it would cost). And I doubt there is a federal government willing to foot the bill for the east coast.
DeleteAnyway, fuck big oil. But can you get an 800hp engine from the wind or sun. #connundrum
im watchin on the carolina feed. they just flashed an ad: lower bowls starting at $40USD!
ReplyDelete1. uh.... why are tickets NOT sold out yet?
2. this is riddiculous. even with their garbage season, the canucks ask for something like $45 for uppers! f-me.... i wish i lived down there in ARZ, CAR, ANH sometimes...
nino nederider, was he not a character in Catch 22?
ReplyDeleteconsidering the past, should a player name Slavin really be playing there?
ReplyDeleteWatching on RDS, even though I understand very little French it's refreshing to not have to listen to the SFUckers talk shite about the Habs and I haven't heard the word 'leaf' once. I swear!
ReplyDeletemeat is getting pounded into tenderloin
ReplyDeleteTFS
ReplyDeleteLB !!!!!
ReplyDeletePING!
ReplyDeleteLb!
ReplyDeleteLB!!!!
ReplyDeleteLB poetry
ReplyDeleteDruid needs better players, his thinking is sound, if he had Mario and Guy on the wings
ReplyDeleteDo we have a nic for Nate? I suggest Roland, as in Roland the headless Tompshan gunner
ReplyDeleteOoh that's good. But I'd go with Gunner.
DeleteNaTo
Deleteboth good but NaTo is great, although we should have used it for Army
DeleteFlipped channels and heard R.J. Broadhead doing the Habs game.
ReplyDeleteTrue story, I use to have this really fun email back n' forth with the gorgeous Jody Vance, previously of sn. (maybe 10 years ago, or so).
This was pre social-media.
I once mentioned to her that Broadhead came across as a leaf hack.
She told me he was just starting and just did his job and was green.
His work on Jr. hockey is/was good.
I miss Jody.
hay screw off! shes from out here you know?
DeleteI know. A beautiful, fun, sarcastic B.C. gal.
DeleteRemember what was said in Slapshot to the goalie, well we could say you were not good enough to be a leaf, deadly
ReplyDeleteSorry guys, I can't comment during the game anymore tonight, blogger can go fuck itself. Keep talking tho, i luv it...
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of forcing change and with internet lawyerly advice, might move us to WordPress next season.
Deletediscus is not a walk in the park for commenting
DeleteKidA was KidA+ on that goal.
ReplyDeleteholy crap. did i hear that right? 12:21 1st period shots? thats totally not as per how they boys have been playing lately...
ReplyDeleteHANG ON BOYS
ReplyDeletelove that hoops celebration
ReplyDeleteSimple breakfast;
ReplyDeleteGet a nice large-ish tortilla (not pesto or sundried tomato), spread nutella on one half, peanut butter on the other, place a banana in the centre, roll, eat.
I've done this but not with nutella.
DeleteWhen the kids were little and not diagnosed as celiacs yet we would spread PB on bread with half a banana and fold jt up and called it a banana dog.
PING. how did that not go in
ReplyDeleteThe PING was off the horseshoe up McEl's ass.
DeleteCAR has a player named Slavin. Imagine Jerry Lewis saying Slavin.
ReplyDeleteoh.... thats what u guys mean about slaving...
DeleteCASH IT
ReplyDeleteHa ha ... you really haven't been around much lately ... have you? :-)
DeletetheHeh.
DeleteLol the M! So true.
DeleteA NaTo goal would protect and solidify the lead. So close.
ReplyDeleteHis PK work of late has been going a long way towards disaster relief.
DeleteAnd does Joe Pesci play for the Canes too? Sure I've heard RJ call his name a few times.
ReplyDeleteand now the boys are 8:0 shots in this period so far?
ReplyDeletei love it! (blogger... not so much u)
TFS!
ReplyDeletequality hanging on boys!
ReplyDelete'sigh'.. if only domini lifted that....
ReplyDeleteWHO MADE THAT COMMENT ABOUT THAT STUPID MUSTARD SUIT?!?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMHU4_ljghU
i just jogged my memory and yep. and ive concluded i am STILL entitled to be angry! that shoulda been a 3-1 series lead going to the finals dammit! arrrrrrrrgh! that was an all-star line-up wasted! f********!
Two good periods so far. JFW boys. BTW - always a pleasure to see the Nutella Fella make an appearance. GYFHG!
