Quick recap of the game last night, but I much prefer to talk about other stories happening in hockey. At the core of my soul I am a Habs fan, and I can't bare to dissect a yet another late-period goal. The Habs will pick it up, and we'll (ahem..I mean they) will start stringing wins together again.With that in mind, I thought I would take today to share my favorite WTF of this 2010-2011 season:
Watching the Habs beat the Devils last night was like watching Usain Bolt enter a sprint against The Biggest Loser. The New Jersey Devils are in dire straits, and sometimes it feels good to beat up on a weaker opponent. Not to take away from the Habs performance last night, but the Devils truly are terrible. You have the 10-million dollar man doing absolutely nothing, an aging and injured Brodeur, and their only goal scorer sidelined with injury as well.
Well that was bad. I mean, we all knew the story line: NJ Devils having a rough start, Marty Brodeur plays his best in Montreal, Habs had four days off. BUT..come on! Did it have to be THAT big of a stink-fest?
Lots of hockey this weekend, including a GREAT win by the Habs over the Penguins. Poor Fleury and friends, I'm sure the only thing they wanted for Thanksgiving was a win over the Habs, and with two minutes to go, it looked like it was in the bag. Well...Cammalleri gets two, Fleury let's in a softie,we get stellar goaltending and Crosby is held off the score sheet. What month is this again? May? As great as that win was, I don't want to talk about the Montreal Canadiens today, I want to talk about two crazy incidents that happened yesterday: The Devils dressing 15 skaters and the 'ol b.j. gesture by Islanders defenseman James Wisniewski
