Update ~ Second blood test reveals no Lyme disease. No gout. New doctor says infection decreasing. Actual results of infection later. No more IV antibiotics for now and 10 days of anti inflammatory medicine. No real pain, just a lot of swollen knees.
Let's hope the defence plays a little more conservative to start the game. Get a lead then open up a little. Math and JEdi should be the 1st pairing, that will give wrongSavard some easier matchups. Don't get me wrong he's been playing well but turns the puck over a little too much for my liking.
I'd also like to see Slaf get a few more minutes with better players.
Almost time to tune in and listen to mclame and his clown show talk the laffs and nothing else.
Anyone else reading about how hackstall and the Krakheads are treating Shane Wright? Scratched in 5 straight games, gets very few minutes when he does play. I feel bad for the kid, he should have went back to the OHL, Kingston would have traded him to a contender and maybe he competes for the Memorial Cup. I wonder how his ego would have handled it? Better than sitting in the press box all the time I would think. Maybe they let him go play for Team Canada at least.
Per Arpon Basu: Martin St. Louis says Mike Hoffman was hurt but he felt he could help them on the power play if they got one and that’s why he was sitting in the bench. He’ll be reevaluated tomorrow.
Holy crap, reading some excerpts from Pierre Gervais's book, just released, in French from laPresse. What an a-hole MaxPac was! What a prince Koivu was! What a dismally clueless moron DoHarm was as a coach! What we saw and surmised was on point, according to the former equipment mgr.
Don't want to beat on a dead horse (Ducharme) but, two things: 1) I always felt that Finals run was more Richardson, Perry, Weber and Price leading that team, not the HC and 2) when the team was so fucking dismal last year, I figured the problem was DD. The players didn't forget how to play hockey, they either couldn't or wouldn't play his fucked up system. No way that team could be that bad. I've seen a few snippets of that book on Twitter, it certainly seems DD was in over his head when it came to coaching an NHL team. You don't treat those players like you do a junior team.
That game was entertaining start to finish. Lots of goals, back and forth play, another Jackeye scrap, last minute heroics. I wonder if Coach Marty took Coach Torts out for a drink after?
60 is a lot, but he is a pure shooter. If Suzuki can keep feeding him it's possible. There seems to be a lot of good karma around this team since HuGo and MSL took over.
Somebody pointed out a clip of Saturday's tying goal of Suzuki giving Deangelo (as in he of the racist/homophobic slurs) a shin tap after the goal. Almost makes one wonder if he said something during the game, or if it was for his bad hit earlier on Monahan or just for his overall douchebaggery? It's worth checking out...kids on the internets say it's savage.

Captain Nick is a very mature 23. When I was 23 I was getting drunk at The Rainbow Bar and Grill a far cry from where he is today. I know it's early but he appears to be the leader this young bunch can rally around and follow. I am interested in the almost daily reports of the various teams sniffing around our forward group. It might be early for Hugo to trade away some vets. It's always more advantageous when the the traders are a little more desperate. It would also help if the vets could stop getting injured. I'm wondering what happened to our 5.5 million Druid, which part of his upper body got injured. Go Habs
Not much new to watch on the telly lately but I heard a great interview by CBC's Tom Power with Sly Stallone, so gonna have to check out his new series Tulsa King. Sly says it's every Italian actor's dream to play a mob boss 😂
I'm not into the crime/mob stuff, never liked Breaking Bad, never finished Ozark, refused to watch Yellowstone. I'm a sci-fi comic book guy, I am getting caught up on Star Trek Lower Decks, it's better than I expected. Some of the Disney/Marvel stuff has been OK, but DC has shit the bed I bailed on all that stuff.

ReplyDeleteGreat news so far! Hope you're back to normal asap. Can you drink rum?
DeleteSounds like good news. Hope it continues.
DeleteLooks like Math making his debut and Tweed is the first to sit.

Apparently the leaf have never had as good a player as Jordie Benn before.
ReplyDeleteBieksa, the only one I like, trashes Whiskey.
ReplyDeletehahaRudey fluffs Jake Allen, thanks, now on to Cabbie and how to bet on games.
ReplyDeleteFuck off snet.
39 seconds for Math to = -1
ReplyDeleteDevo!
ReplyDeleteSurprised the Phuvkers didn't challenge that goal against. With Gallagher at the net there is better than an 80% chance of winning the challenge.
ReplyDeleteHa ha Situation room says fuck you Montreal
ReplyDeleteGood call. Dumb the review took so long. He pushed the goalie pad.
ReplyDeleteWhiskey!
ReplyDeleteWhiskey! No disputing that one tranna
ReplyDeleteAnother game, another goal waved off. But Whisky got it back again. Yeha, Habs games are fun to watch again. Just fucking win boys. GYFHG!
ReplyDeleteMath!!!
ReplyDelete-1+1=0
DeleteI think he was on for both goals ... recalculating.....
DeleteLol...I just didn't want to look it up but wanted to give his + back since I gave him a - very early on.
DeleteAnd what a pass by the Captain!
ReplyDeleteHave to give Fiver the decision on that one.
ReplyDeleteTough customer. Always liked him.
DeleteEwww. Snake would like that back.
ReplyDeleteThat was a sewer snake.
DeleteI cannot stress enough how much I hate Gary Galley.

ReplyDeleteWhat'd I miss? Nice kill! Helluva hit by Ghoul!
ReplyDeleteYou could see that coming a mile away.
ReplyDeleteConnor Bedard Adam Fantilli Leo Carlsson....
ReplyDeleteJake the Snake has been Jake the Sieve the last few games. Giving up 4 or more every time.
ReplyDeleteJake the Tank
DeleteWhiskey Double!!!
ReplyDeleteWhiskey double! Neat!!
ReplyDeleteBecause that is how he do.
DeleteWOW!
ReplyDeleteOur Captain is a pretty good passer.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for Slaf to join the Gold Dust twins
ReplyDeleteI don't think our Habbies have lost in OT yet. On to the shootout. Hoff?
ReplyDeleteHe didn't see the ice in the third.
DeleteInjured, benched or traded I wonder?
DeleteSlick Nick.
ReplyDeleteNature! Slick Nick. Spooky Suzuki
ReplyDeletePomme!
ReplyDeleteJake redeems himself in the shoot out.
ReplyDeleteSaturday Night Special. GYFHG!
ReplyDeleteNice dub. Best thing now might be waiting for a reporter to ask Torts a dumb question. I'll check that out in the morning.
ReplyDeleteSo... missed the first teo periods. What did Hoff do that got him benched for the third? Or will they announce they traded him?
ReplyDeletePer Arpon Basu:

Habs win on a Saturday night makes waking up Sunday morning a beautiful thing. 😎
ReplyDeleteFun til the last minute.

DeleteGood read in that article.
DeleteCompares Nature favourably to Damphouse and Carbo in temperment. Gives Bergy props for obtaining him too.

ReplyDeletebetting the Pucktards is politically correct. Nature is realy taking a step to a level that makes his deal look like a deal
ReplyDeletePhooey, the Giants lay an egg today.
ReplyDeleteI have their kicker. Got -2 points.
DeleteBut I'm playing against a dud Soni should be good.
Do you think the current #22 will ever score as many in a season as the previous best #22 to wear the sweater's best season?
ReplyDelete60 is a lot, but he is a pure shooter. If Suzuki can keep feeding him it's possible. There seems to be a lot of good karma around this team since HuGo and MSL took over.
DeleteExcellent. You decoded my awkwardly phrases question 😬.
DeleteI agree 60 might be a stretch but ya never know. I don't doubt he and Suzuki will each have multiple 40+ goal seasons. Cole should hit 50.
Barring injuries, the Gold Dust twins should both hit 40+, they each have 11 goals one quarter of the way into the season.
DeleteHey good news for UK3X. I just read that the Habs play Chicago at 2PM EST (7pm? in England) on Black Friday.
