Attack of the Mighty Giant Mexican Chicken Ducks: Saku's Revenge Game Preview and Open Thread

Terror on the Pond! It's a horde of bloodthirsty Ducks vs GMC! Can Coach Bombay direct Saku to delicious revenge, or will it be fiesta time for the Habs? Coming soon to a tv near you!

Programming note:
This won't be as full of Oscar talk as you think, since I've boycotted the Academy since they stole Best Supporting Actor from the fat kid who plays Jewish goalie Goldberg in the Mighty Ducks franchise. Ordinary People over Raging Bull looks like complete common sense next to that travesty.

Opening credits:
8:00 pm in Anaheim at the Honda Centre (aka the Pond). Live on RDS as always. Habs had the big win in LA last night, Ducks got whitewashed by the Coyotes 4-0. Oh, perfect. Now they're pissed.

Names above the title on the marquee:
You know, the stars. Habs have two hot goalies? Seems so. Ducks have strongest Swiss fortifications this side of Konigstein Fortress in Jonas Hillier. Low scoring? Not if GMC, Pleks, or Gold Medal Ducks Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Scott Niedermayer and silver medalliet Bobby Ryan have anything to say about it.

Guys hanging around the catering truck, hoping not to get fired:
Let's see ... I don't think Andrei looks fully back yet. Habs defence still a patchwork quilt of hanging on for dear life. Our old friend Chips is still minus 12 and pointless in 3. Did the trade rumours get to James Wisniewski? He's pointless in 4. Actually, when you get shut out in your last game, hot is kind of in the eye of the beholder.

Off the project due to creative differences:
Squid and the Urologist keep this space warm. Mad Max still sitting in the corner for a few more games. Ducks major loss is Joffrey Lupul, out after back surgery.

Straight to video things you might not care about:
Ducks are in a scrap for a playoff birth in the West and have been busy trading. They have former Leaf malcontent Jason Blake, Lubomir Vishnovsky and Joey MacDonald in the flock now, and Coach Bombay figuring out the district lines changed to get Adam Banks up front was a stroke of genius. Watch out for the triple deke after the flying V attack, because that's a game-changer.

  3. OMG! I haven't seen anything so outrageous since Jill Masterson in Goldfinger! I have to admit I like her curves better than GMCH but I have to admit that after terrorizing LA they may score an oscar tonight!

    Ooooh. Now I want to put on my best Ethel Merman evening gown and watch the oscars. What to do, what to do.

  10. @ GorgeousGal11, re: "What to do, what to do."

    CHampagne!

    ReplyDelete
  11. What does that place in Germany have to do with Hiller? Or is he particularly "Bohemian"?

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'd skip this game if only they weren't playing Saku. Roommate is hosting a all-girls Oscar party, which means I'll be in bed watching the RDS feed. Too tired/hungover to bother walking down to the sports bar.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Drama!

    @MAGodin: Koivu doesn't know how he'll react tonight. "It looks like a new team, plenty of new faces, but the CH logo remains the same"

    *cries*

    ReplyDelete
  14. Important stat:

    Thrashers, 3 games in hand on the Habs in 9th with 66 points, 2 behind Montreal.

    Third period in Atlanta - Carolina game: 4-0 Carolina.

    Go you fucking Canes.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Nice update HF4.

    Go Canes but don't get too close to our Habs, you fuckers!

    Fucking Bs lost (surprised = fucking not).

    Hope the fucking PHI loses too ( likely = fucking not, as they are playing the fucking last place leaf, man is it fun to type that!)

  16. Is that a beer mug or is it the greatest nipple ever.

  17. all of a sudden i want to be a beer stein

    START YOU FUCKING GAME. i can only take so much Barbara Wawa

  18. Beer and tits, there's no life like it.

    Yes, I am happily lube'd ...

    Half way there bitCHes, WhereTF are my oven mitts!?!

  19. i gotta try this 10w30 all the kids are drinking

    so anyone see the Cooke on Savard hit? it's at Puck Daddy (sort of, no real good angle). been breaking it down like the Zapruder film but can't decide how dirty it was

    ReplyDelete
  20. /rant

    Do not let these pure wool media fuckers off the hook when it comes to slagging Saku (especially the horrid michel bergeron and his slimy snake tongue). The majority of these heartless CHaters ripped Koivu for being who he was, a humble, dedicated, honest, human homme and Hab.

    /end rant

    ReplyDelete
  21. @10w29, "i gotta try this 10w30"

    Yes, you must, you kid.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I <3 Saku

    always have,

    always will.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Some commenter on Habs Inside Out last night was saying how McSplooge is a great hockey analyst and he should be the GM of the Habs.

    The sad part is I couldn't tell if he was being sarcastic.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Cooke's hit on Savard = at least 4 games and if collie campbell can find his balls, 8 games.

    ReplyDelete
  25. GO MY SAKU!!!

    Strangely, cheering against the Habs doen't bother me nearly as much as cheering for a team called the "Ducks".

    But I want Saku to win. Mostly because there are those in the Montreal media who would love to see him fail. I would call them miserable pieces of shit, but manure has value.

    ReplyDelete
  26. They just showed footage of Saku with the Habs... This is gonna be harder than I thought. :(

    ReplyDelete
  27. @habsss - im doubtful the average HIO commentor is capable of sarcasm. or understanding it (just ask 4)

    Joel: "if the Habs can contain the Ducks best line, they have a chance to win." that's quality analysis

    ReplyDelete
  28. @RiRi and Sonia, be like Saku and appreciate life and what she offers. We are lucky to have had him as our Captain(e).

    ~~~

    Kudos to CoaCH Martin for starting TFS™.

    ReplyDelete
  29. @29, at least Joel didn't drop any 'je suis convaicul' ou 'j'en ai pas d'problèmes' ...

    ReplyDelete
  30. Has the puck dropped yet? For some reason the usual RDS online feed through Justin.tv is not streaming.

    ReplyDelete
  31. @HF29: Oops.

    Thankfully I found a different feed.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I HATE REVERSE GOALIES!

    All those "short side" goals become easy glove hand saves...

    ReplyDelete
  33. Corey Perry will score like that. Especially when he can pick corners without looking and has Rhino and Markov lined up for a glorious screen.

    ReplyDelete
  34. i feel this game slipping away. in the first period

    NICE GLOVE Carey

    ReplyDelete
  35. keep backing up D. keep backing up

    meh

    ReplyDelete
  36. One thing I hate about having to listen to CJAD is that they have to explain that Carey is unbelievably good every 2 minutes. If you have to say it....

    ReplyDelete
  37. And the Habs are back to their back up back up until all your goalie sees is your ass and don't challenge the shooter. Joy~

    ReplyDelete
  38. This is going to get ugly.

    ReplyDelete
  39. The Oscars better be fun (with Alec & Steve I am sure they will be).

    ReplyDelete
  40. @31: I have to depend on how they're talking about Carey Price to tell what's going on on the ice.

    "Carey is trying his best, what a goalie. No help from the D."

    =

    "Ducks score"

    ReplyDelete
  41. And for the best imitation of Mr. Potato Head.... the Oscar goes to....... Randy Carlisle!!!

    Oh and we suck.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Well Orangeman, that's pretty much what's happening. Benoit Brunet just said the same thing. It's the absolute opposite from yesterday's game: no aggressive 2-man forecheck, Gomez can't keep the puck on his stick, can't clear the zone (well that's normal), backing up D, standing around, watching, probably thinking about what they're going to read on the flight home (hope it's Larry Robinson's book on DEFENSE).

    Man this team just looks BAD tonight. And I don't know what the hell they were doing on the powerplay. They keep going to what would be stick side on more goalies, forgetting Hiller has his glove there. And Gionta standing in front is not a screen...

    ReplyDelete
  43. The GiantMexicanCHicken must have been carousing all night with the Phat Whale in tow. Beaten by the burritos and tequila!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Cammy's tweet "5pm start for the guys tonight on the west coast...it throws off pre game routines...always a challenge to prepare those ones...sleep, nutrition...Go Habs Go" So we got the excuse early eh? That means they should be good to go by the 3rd period.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Halak in net now?

    DRAMA!

    ReplyDelete
  46. 31: That's quite the excuse considering 5pm on the West coast is normal starting time East coast.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Let's see if the switch wakes these fuckers up. Demers and Joel: "The urgency and fight they played with yesterday didn't join them today."

    And to start, Gorges passes right into someone's skates right in front of his net. Bravo.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Two times now the Ducks have nearly killed their teammates by shooting at them. Maybe they can knock themselves out of the game...

    ReplyDelete
  49. Pleks! Here we come!

    hahahahahaha....haha..ha...ha....sigh.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I'm still kinda shocked that "freud was a COMPULSIVE MASTURBATOR" was important enough to become a tag. Even at FHF, that's impressive, IMHO.

    ReplyDelete
  51. So who yelled at them in the room to wake up? My money is on Kirk having a Herb Brooks moment.

    Jekyll and Hyde team.

    At least they won't get shutout. I'm sick of seeing them get shutout.

    ReplyDelete
  52. That Ducks uniform is rather ugly...

    ReplyDelete
  53. Pleks is pretty terrible at shootouts, yet seems to do OK on breakaways. Curiouser and curiouser...

    ReplyDelete
  54. WTF Jaro just killed Jaro 2.0

    I mean, I know Jaro hates breakaways and isn't very good at making the save on them but eeks x_x We have enough injuries!

    ReplyDelete
  55. im not optimistic. we can barely complete a pass

    ReplyDelete
  56. oh sergei that was almost magical

    ReplyDelete
  57. That flip should get a point.

    ReplyDelete
  58. we've had PP chances in this game. just cant finish. i guess that's a problem.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Mighty Ducks vs. Bad News Bears?

    ReplyDelete
  60. If the Ducks gave them this much trouble, Steve Fucking Downie and Stamkos are going to eat them alive on Tuesday. (I hate the Lightning).

    ReplyDelete
  61. Stick on the ice, Markov, and that's a goal... But whatever.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Isn`t Sergei`s talent wasted on a line with Moen and Moore?

    And RDS just loves to remind us that "Vinny et sa bande" are coming to town...

    Also, what did AK46 ever do to BB?

    ReplyDelete
  63. Sure they tie it up with 2 minutes left...

    ReplyDelete
  64. Ok a minute and a half left to tie it up. Yea.

    ReplyDelete
  65. YOU`RE FUCKING KIDDING ME, RIGHT??

    ReplyDelete
  66. Who`s the asshole who punched Markov?

    ReplyDelete
  67. What the hell? I don't know this team.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Fucking Perry. Suck it, k?

    ReplyDelete
  69. Stick your fucking gold medal up your ass, Corey Perry.

    ReplyDelete
  70. I didn't see the video but judging by the radio Perry slashed Markov and then hit him after he scored and yet there's coincidental minors?

    ReplyDelete
  71. Who punches an opposing player straight in the mouth after they score?!?? I mean, push and shove, fine but c`mon...

    ReplyDelete
  72. And where was this all game? Sometimes I hate this team.

    ReplyDelete
  73. @RiRi: Douchebag Perry took offense to Markov celebrating in his face. Markov celebrated in Perry's face after Perry slashed him earlier.

    Man, that missed EN was huge.

    ReplyDelete
  74. The Giant Mexican Chicken + Markov just saved our asses in the last two minutes... I`m still in shock...

    ReplyDelete
  75. 4th goal? Really?

    We're still mediocre!!! We're average!!! .500!!! Yippee!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  76. I refer to him consistently as "That Little Bitch, Corey Perry" like it's his full name.

    ReplyDelete
  77. @kc- Thx, I hadn`t seen that part.

    I hope Markov throws his hands in the air right in front Perry if they win this thing in OT.

    Man, AK46 really needs the shake off the rust...

    ReplyDelete
  78. Corey Perry or Doogie Howser?

    ReplyDelete
  79. Why do they keep falling into each other???

    ReplyDelete
  80. Heart attack central right here!

    ReplyDelete
  81. If Markov wins the shootout he should blow Perry a kiss.

    ReplyDelete
  82. HAHAHA you call that a shootout attempt Perry?

    ReplyDelete
  83. You think watching the shootout is stressful, try listening to it. Is it in? It's trickling? What the hell does that mean! TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON?!!!

    ReplyDelete
  84. Why is Saku not going? C'mon Ducks we wanna see Saku.

    Haha he lost the puck. And the other guy lost the puck too. This is the stupidest shootout ever.

    HOLY CRAP PLEKS ACTUALLY SCORED IN A SHOOTOUT!

    ReplyDelete
  85. Kirk Muller is such a cheerleader!!

    ReplyDelete
  86. Pleks!!! Did this really happen? Did the Habs just tie it up from 2 behind with 2 mins left and then win in the SO? Pinch me! Ok, Olympic hangover is tapering off.

    ReplyDelete
  87. i fuckn can't fuckn beleive it!

    way to go.

    GO PANTS!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  88. And after all that CJAD is talking about how great Price is.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Twilight Zone.

    I don't know this team anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Great, great win tonight. Not great as in the hockey was spectacular but great because we came back to win this fucking thing so late.

    In hindsight, I wonder if the Ducks third goal late in the first was not such a bad thing. Going into the second, they probably thought they had this motherfucker wrapped up and started to ease up a bit.

    I declare this to be a successful Western swing of the road trip.

    ReplyDelete
  91. 2 wins and one close one in California in 2010? Yeah, I'll take that. Especially after beating up Boston.

    This is the type of game where you leave to beat the traffic, hear the crowd roar when you're walking away and assume it's a fight and then pull over to cry after turning on the radio and finding out what happened.

    ReplyDelete
  92. I awoke from my stupor with two minutes to go...unbelievable!

    ReplyDelete
  93. @orangeman:

    Lol, that's freakin' hilarious. XD

    I love Murray Wilson and Rick Moffat.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I wish we had the Bulldogs guy doing the Habs game on the radio :(

    ReplyDelete
  95. sorry 31 but aren't you happy Jaro pulled a shutout?

    ReplyDelete
  96. is this what they call pulling one out of your pants?

    ReplyDelete
  97. Can`t we just play Jaro to the end?

    I don`t know why but he seems to always get the wins...

    Price is not to blame but the team just plays like shit in front of him for some weird reason...

    ReplyDelete
  98. I'd say that the Ducks snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, but I realize the shark references were SO three days ago.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I think we just won best original screenplay for a dramatic thriller or comedy of errors. Who the hell could've ever dreamed that one up.

    Mazel tov.

    ReplyDelete
  100. I wonder if there's still a goalie controversy on HIO

    ReplyDelete
  101. hfotwc - You mean when the team actually woke up and started playing defence and didn't put their ass in his face or let people cruise in from behind and actually contain people like Perry, Getzlaf, whoever to the outside? Yea I'm cool with that. He didn't have much to do most of the game.

    Leapfrogged the Bruins to 7th by ONE measly little point and they play the Leafs next x_x Go Roof Go?

    ReplyDelete
  102. yup, i mean Jaro's the shit right?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm the biggest (as big as a whale) Carey's fan. But when Jaro keeps winning, he sure fuckin wear a jersey proud.

    ReplyDelete
  103. I turned off the game after the 2nd goal on TFS. If Bob Gainey had been behind the bench, he would have left the Big Blubber out there for experience. I don't want to dare to hope, but... you think it's possible JM really wants to win games?

    ReplyDelete
  104. Had ZERO to do with goaltending. The Ducks had a 9-2 scoring chance in the first. After the first? Zero scoring chances. Even the shootout was rediculous as everyone screwed up except for Getzlaf (uh where was Saku? Did he politely decline?). Maybe go read the All-Habs write up on it 'cause that's exactly what happened instead of the Alan Walsh write up on it...
