Habs Suck (Devils 4-1) but they're all All-Stars. Who's up for a WJHC Open Thread?

Well that was a load. I guess we can't expect the Habs to go 4-0 on a road trip but fuck. Jaro was bleh, no forward over the age of 25 showed up, and I may have fallen asleep.

But god love some computer programmer, four Habs will start in the All-Star Game. TFS, DOOM, Markov, and Kovy. I am embarrassed.

But it's Canada-Russia at 7 PM! Always a good time. We'll be here if you care to comment.

Nothing wrong with 4 Habs starting the All Star game.

Bruins fans could have voted for their players but (1) there are too few of them and (2) they're mostly hicks from Revere (Reveah) or Medford (Medfuhd) and probably can't use the internet.

HF29; how dare you not mention my goalie? Starting in net for Canada will be the ever dazzling Dustin Tokarski. Did you see the brilliant save he made against USA? Of course you did and I bet it made you jam in your jeans.

Saint Tokarski.

I'm happy those guys made it. It's in our town and it's just a hockey convention anyway. All the usually point leaders will be in the game too. At least, Habs fans care to show up and show their team some love! (Maybe it'll give them a hint).

Hey Boston finally lost. Pittsburgh got run over by the Panthers, oy...

Anyway, GO CANADA! And GO SUBBAN!

pmode knows, Bs fans are all yip. Also DET and SJ fans forget how to click a mouse?

The ovations our 4 Habs Players (has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?) will get from the biggest and best NHL arena fans ever will make it all warm and wet for us diehards.

why is there no 30 minute WJHC pregame show? I am OUTRAGED tsn

Young HF29 said...

i stand corrected, the 30 minute pregame is going on now, puck drop at 730. i should have trusted TSN's ability to milk this game

Young HF29 said...

Habs sign PK Subban to DiPietro-esque 17 year contract.

Isn't our own lg77 at the CAN v. RUS game? If so, I can't hear her. Also, one must remember that this is an Ottawa crowd (careful, I live in Gatineau) and the lack of vocal chords is a local thing (not including Habs fans)!

Young HF29 said...

LG77 and Panger are there together. LG emailed me and said "we're playing like mankey sheet"

moeman said...

heh, 'mankey sheet' sounds Jaro-ish.

Wish lg77 a Happy New Year and see if she can get herself on the Scotiabank Kiss Cam. (FWIW, its in HD and

GOALLLLLL

Young HF29 said...

about time for the PP

moeman said...

@hf29 'PP is timely', I know it is (in part) your fab blog/site but do we need to know you need a bathroom break?

Number31 said...

I was at Boston Pizza eating a lovely pizza when they scored the first goal. I think Tavares is starting to understand how Kovy feels every night. They're covering him well enough. Oh well, at least it's picking up a bit.

Ballsack, Russia. Ballsack.

And I am off to a Chiefs game not knowing how this will end. Dammit!

Number31 said...

Oh ya! Espo! Shorthanded!

Wow Russian's diving~

messages via email from the live game viewers:

@moeman from LG77 - there is no kiss cam at the WJC games

@Wrap from LG and Panger - (your) boy Tokarski had better not cost us the gold medal game. He is getting beat on same move every time...

Young HF29 said...

@moeman from me - heh. pp

moeman said...

Thnx to hf29>lg77 for the update. A man can (still) dream.

Pat Quinn is one ugly red-faced fathead.

In other hockey news, Sens keep sucking.

You have to feel a bit sorry for Tokarski.

moeman said...

WOW!

Young HF29 said...

Can PK play for us tomorrow? Cuz he is awesome.

wrap around curl said...

Wow, apparently I missed the best bits. I know Toka has a bit of work to do. I still maintain he is a stud.

I'm still trying to figure out if that game was a crack induced haze/dream.

That was insane.
