  1. That shot of Friedman recalls a Dr. Seuss rendition of the Grinch grinchissly grinching. Well done, moe. I think the floodgates will open tonight. 6-3 Habs.

    1. Tyler Bertuzzi, who has himself scored more goals than the entire Montreal Canadiens franchise so far this season, is not in yhe lineup for Detroit tonight. I hereby unscientifically change my prediction to 7-2 Habs.

  2. Anyone wondering about the MAOW sticker on my ax in my avatar? It was from the night I was allowed backstage at a concert where the incomparabke Neko Case had been drumming for them as an opening act for a Pansy Divison concert. And yes, it was a crazy night.

  3. So that worked then…Blogger playing silly buggers with my stuff man. Anyways - no expectations tonight - looking forward to seeing the wings tonight. As our leader says…JFW…SVP

  5. Playing the wings tonight. Maybe it's an omen that they will score 5 tonight for the free wings. Or maybe another 5 against. Coach DD says they're not a bad team. Maybe they're just coached poorly?

    With my greatly reduced cable tv package I'll be unable to watch the Drabs/Dead Things game tonight. I no longer (thankfully) have shitnet or the other leaf blowing channel and the CBC only sees fit to show their beloved wretched leaf. Yes, I'm aware there is a way to do so Steve, but I have other priorities tonight. I'll just wish all you viewers of the proceedings bonne chance.

      If Detroit wins 11-1 tonight does Saint Patrick take over shortly after?

    Truth: "Habs major offensive woes are due in large part to the fact that the players wait for pucks and don't move their feet."

    I'm no hockey expert and I have noticed this. Need D who can head man the puck or lead the rush, I'm looking at you Jeff Petry. Larry Robinson, Guy Lapointe, Chris Chelios, Andre Markov, P.K. Subban. Marc Bergevin has built a defence in his own image and here we are.

  9. I'll keep half an eye on the game since I won't be seeing any of the west coast games. But expectations are merely play good, exciting hockey. A win would be a bonus.

  11. 2 goals. Back to average of 1 per game!

  12. They're missing $35m in salary tonight but tied after 1 with the wretched leaf. Go no name Pens!

    ReplyDelete
  13. 4-1 Habs and 3-1 Pens mid 2nd. good night so far. Keeping an eye on the CFM v TFC too. Nil nil at half. That is more expected.

    ReplyDelete
  14. No Nick again! & Free Wings!

    ReplyDelete
  15. And they're up to 1.5 gpg.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Wow. 2 beautiful 5-1 games on the go. What a night!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Touchdown for the Pens!

    Shockingly the TSN soccer announcers are pro Toronto. Perhaps less so than the hockey crew but similar to any of the broadcasts they get way more excited when their team gets a chance on goal.

    1. And a rough last shot goal to give TFC a tie. Needed a win badly for their playoff chances. After missing an open net.

  18. So a hatty for Perreault. My intuition is to call him Gas but that's because we have a town and river here in NS called Gaspereau.

    I don't know which is sweeter, the Habs 6-1 win over Stevie Y's Dead Things or the Pittsburgh No Names crushing of the CBC's wretched leaf. I vote for the latter.

    I took a peek at tsn's web page and that story is fucking buried down the page. Delicious!

    Now, can the New York Football Giants pull off a miracle and beat the other Carolina team this afternoon?

  21. Dominatating performance. If you look at the sharks and rags, they are two of the hottest teams in hockey along with the whalercanes. So we took some lumps and move on.

    The Hoff recorded his first in bleu-blanc-rouge, showcasing his much-ballyhooed howitzer on the power play. We got Gilbert Perrault. Niku can we call him Nico, like a Steven Segal nija Character, looks like the best urologists' in recent memory.
    The Kracken are not the terrors of the west coast. We should be back in the hunt by weeks end.

    #Leafs lose 7-1 to a #Pens team without Crosby, Malkin, and Letang. But don’t worry because TSN will make you forget about the humiliating loss by posting a bunch of stories about what each Leafs player wore to the arena with their new relaxed dress code.

    Check out Awesome Matthews nice purse...

    1. The leaf media is complicit in ruining the game.

      snet should never have gotten the rights, nor taking over hnic.

      tsn is no better.

      They can all fuck off.

      tsn is particularly funny, they have no shame in their fawning over the leaf. Their website has to be run by a bunch of drooling fanboy hacks. Especially masters and shilton. What a pair of losers. I refuse to even look at the shitnet site, and yes, even though hnic was terrible, it's even worse now.

      Jack Todd posted the pic of Miss matthews with his purse... fucking hilarious. It's on Twitter.

    1. Man I wish I picked up their defence for Fantasy today, would have put me in a food spot for an upset!

      Also, Pats win too! Even if just over the Jets. Mac 'n cheese is looking good.

    2. Also a good spot. A good food spot indeed.

  24. Football generally sucking today with blowouts abound, much like those 2 hockey games last night where the Habs win 6-1 and the leafs lost 7-1...in case anybody forgot 😎.

      I'm getting tired of watching the fucking Ravens every Sunday. There's 31 other teams ffs.

    2. There's always DAZN for $20/month. I had it last year and watched way too much football.
      I'm fortunate that our American stations are from Boston so get all the Pats games.
      Man what a beatdown they put on the Jets. Love it!

  25. I think I prefer when the leafs get off to a hot start, they plan the parade, and they implode later in the season and/or first round. But the early season SFU media driven, hand-wringing, angst-inducing chronicles of the mighty leaf is fun too.

    Speaking of the leaf, first it was fashion and purses, now this... too fucking funny!

  28. Remeber the old police procedurals, It was not Adam 12 but it was " just the facts mam, and they warned you about doing drugs every episode" So Ekland who I love to read because he has such a great imagination
    6. Rookie defenseman Moritz Seider is averaging 21:34 minutes of playing time in his first three NHL games. “He’s earned those minutes,” Detroit coach Jeff Blashill said. The other rookie D man playing 20 or more is Nashville’s Alexandre Carrier. 7. Sam Bennett has nine goals and nine assists in his first 13 games with the Panthers. What’s that say about the Calgary Flames organization? 8. How can Tampa Bay defenseman Mikhail Sergachev be -8 after four games? 9. Still think Rick Tocchet deserves an NHL coaching job. 10. It felt as if Evander Kane’s 21-game suspension for falsifying a vaccination card included a little extra for other indiscretions.

  32. I tuned into the leaf game only long enough to hear Simpleton crying "That should have been a penalty!" over and over about some leafy getting knocked down in front of a goalie. And I said 'nope' and went back to football.
