Look! GG11 is back, and the FHF has a new nickname for the Habs' new second line of Brian Gionta, Scott Gomez and Benoit Pouliot. Not living in Montreal anymore, I'm not sure if the city was awakened by torch-bearing mobs bearing pitchforks and burning effigies of Kerry Fraser and Bil McCreary. It seems like everyone - even Ottawa fans - have reason to fucking hate the crappy reffing display last night. (Although check out LDude's insightful commetns in this mornign's TMS in defence of Chris Neil's disallowed goal. Good points, but that call could be made on half the goals scored these days. And this is an admission from a goalie. Lap Dance to LDude anyway, just for quoting from the NHL rule book. Lawyers love that stuff.)
Of course, as Senators Lost Cajones admits, Ottawa still needed their goalie to steal a win. Sound familiar? Well it should - so no bitching about the outcome here. Every W has been unearned on this road trip, and the Habs have 8 of 10 points to show for it.
Mostly I'm in a forgiving mood - not just because my house is finally family free, but also because the return of the Little Giant has had at least two positive effects. First, it gives the Canadiens a legitimate second line and some much needed secondary scoring. Second, it give us an excuse to come up with yet another bizarre line nickname that you,too, can use to condescend to non-FHF reading Habs fans: the Giant Mexican Chicken Line.
Looking forward to your car-industry jokes in the comments. (Think acronyms.)

Missed the game bok I heard abok the bok reffing. Shameful.
Thanks for adding the "think acronyms" bit. I wouldn't have gotten it. So now its a Giant Mexican Chicken driving a truck? OR that they are a "Gay Man's Chevy"?
@gillis - no prblem, I thought it might be a bit obtuse. But I think (FEAR?) there is much comedy to mine from the GMC moniker in the not too distant future.
@GG: cluck me, the reffing was awful!
Pollo!
God, why am I getting this ridiculous craving for a bucket of dirty bird?
With salsa.
And I somehow want to be eating it in a truck.
*shrug*
Must be a coincidence...
Oh and Panger - you owe me a new keyboard for the "cluck me" comment.
But, seriously - if I start clucking like a chicken whenever that line scores a goal, will anyone else join in?
That chicken might be best served with Emeril's BAM BBQ sauce. Only I'll be yelling MAB! (and then running to pee) when I sit down to fress.
That's an impressive ro(o)ster, but what about the first line?
squid/turtle/tits?
Are GMCs equipped with OnStar? Gomez sure could have used it last night to get directions on that breakaway:
"Proceed straight to the net. Now shoot. You may shoot. Shoot now, please. ON NET, YOU FUCKING WASTE OF CAP SPACE!!! Thank you for using OnStar."
"When possible, make a u-turn."
A.K.A "You blew it. Now, please pass to Sergei who is standing alone in front of the net."
Sigh. $8 million just doesn`t buy what it used to...
Don't you think GMC should be "Giant Mexican Cock?" I mean, it does look like you've got a rooster under that sombrero, dude.
