Magical Game 6 Preview and Open Thread


How are the Habs juggling all the blueline injuries and still coming up with a Big D? Magic!

Do or die. There is no tomorrow. Backs against the wall. Am I forgetting one? It's the fourth such match for the Habs this year, so they've heard 'em all. Several times. Just in the playoffs.

We've been posting little crazy little blog nazi's for the past few weeks, and since you obviously have internet access and some sort of an affiliation with the Habs (whether pro or con), there's not much I can tell you in terms of a game preview that you don't already know.

Apparently I am forbidden from praising any head coach of the Montreal Canadiens on this blog, given all the blame foisted upon Count Chocula Jacques Martin and Carboner before him. So how about a little praise for an assistant coach?

Perry Pearn runs the defence for Montreal, and has done a great job line matching in the playoffs. Impressive in and of itself, given the reputation of the opposing forwards faced through two rounds. With injuries to Paul Mara (yes, apparently he is still on the roster), Markov, Spacek and now Gill, combined with a rookie defencemen playing over 20 minutes a night and MAB's inability to turn and skate backwards once he has gained any forward momentum, we only have one conclusion:

Perry Pearn is a wizard.

Jaro provides a helping hand, of course, and between the two of them they've been making defensive magic behind what all the cool blogs are calling (graciously) a "patchwork" defence. So, consider this our tribute to the Magical Mr. Pearn and his apprentice, Jaro.

Now if only Kirk Muller can trap some of that magic in a bottle for his group of midget attackers and we might see a game seven on Wednesday...


[Ed. Note: for those who repeatedly hit "refresh" like HF29, you'll notice I originally posted without a title, just to be different. Well, some people - like HF29 - like to click the title to get all the comments on screen with no pop up, so I've added an admittedly lame title for you and your ilk. So much for thinking outside the box. Heh, I said box.]

Who else has been magical for the Habs? Okay, let's talk more about PK in the comments.

Not the greatest PP.

@HF29: While I also think Bob Cole is an idiot, I would agree with that sentiment. Habs could use another.

moeman said...

bob scold says PFK's backhand is weak. Sure bob.

Orangeman said...

I know slagging on CBC is getting old, but the Habs have carried the play this period and then the Pens get a shot and suddenly it's "IT'S ALL PITTSBURGH HERE!!" Calm down there, Bob.

moeman said...

R.I.P. to an idol of mine Frank Frazetta.

Young HF29 said...

slagging CBC is not old. for instance, right now Bob just said Jaro Halak when he meant Jaro Spacek

Young HF29 said...

MAX!!!!!!!!!!

moeman said...

Laps!!!!!!!!


Bring it on your fucking Pens.

kevincrumbs said...

It's official: Max is a golden god.

Orangeman said...

iRiRi said...

Mad Max is back, bitCHes!!!

moeman said...

copyranter said...

OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD. what a play by MAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX!

kevincrumbs said...

@Massive Tits: Laughed out loud at that.

Smile all you want, Max. TSN can't criticise you tonight.

Orangeman said...

Althought I hate him for saying it, Bob is right. Play smart boys. And, for the love of god, don't get injured!

Number31 said...

LAPPY!

Orangeman said...

My god, Crosby crying to the ref AGAIN. Expect a Pens PP soon.

moeman said...

heh, bob scold wets his diaper and says MALKIN IS ALONE!, when he isn't. GFYBC.

Young HF29 said...

Young HF29 said...

*Crosby. Cosby was a great show, it didnt suck

Orangeman said...

My lord, Bob is doing everything but chanting GO PENS GO. Fuck right off.

hfotwc said...

moeman said...

bettman's diaper must be more soiled than bob cold's and Sidney's combined.

Orangeman said...

I have about 12 more minutes of viewing here. Let's clean this up fast, boys. Ok, ok, I don't give a shit if it take an hour. JUST GET IT DONE!!!

Orangeman said...

Oh, Pleky.

Young HF29 said...

hfotwc said...

kevincrumbs said...

Jesus, I think this team finally figured out how to play in front of this crowd in the playoffs and use it as a positive.

Young HF29 said...

FUCK

kevincrumbs said...

Fuck off. Aiyeayea...

hfotwc said...

tabarnac

iRiRi said...

Young HF29 said...

Cole just mcsplooged on that goal

Orangeman said...

kevincrumbs said...

Nice to see the support from the crowd. Usually it's all boos but then again, that's when they're struggling against the Oilers in January mid-week.

Young HF29 said...

Young HF29 said...

Wait, the loser Pens are trying to start shit after the game is over? Stay classy, Yinzers.

Penguin is an excellent source of vitamin B-12, iron, zinc, manganese and other essential nutrients. Although high in fat, when properly trimmed, penguin meat is an excellent replacement for beef and chicken in the American diet. Penguin blubber is composed primarily of high-density lipoproteins, which when digested are the less-dangerous of the two types of cholesterol. And for those who are allergic to distilled spirits, Penguin is also a fantastic source of pre-digested beer.

moeman said...

Hey gallry, go fuck yourself you fuck.

Orangeman said...

I fucking love this team! I love this team! I'm numb, I can't breath. I'm dizzy.

I love all of you!

iRiRi said...

Leave PK alone!!!

Lappy with the game-winner!!!

kevincrumbs said...

3-0 when I have Vietnamese baguette sandwiches for lunch! Sadly, no can do on Wednesday...

moeman said...

GO FUCK YOURSELF BOB COLD, YOU FUCK!

Mike said...

Tits flash and they become distracted! Who knew!

GYMFH!

Orangeman said...

Ok, time to shower my students with praise and candy.

iRiRi said...

Cammy fist-pumping like a champ!

Number31 said...

Gorges chewing out Crosby?
Malkin flat on his back with a tiny Gio staring over him?
PK ran from high-fiving Jaro to tangle with Guerin?



Back to the Morgueloo.

moeman said...

R.I.P. the beautiful Lena Horne. : (

dwgs said...

sonamabitch we're goin to Tittsburgh!! I'll admit to being a little nervous in the first half of the second but damned if those sonsabitches didn't get their poop in a group for the third.

Daddy Says said...

Boob Coles "greatest player" looked like a common thug at the end of that one EH?
GAME 7 bitCHes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

moeman said...

PFK and Pyatt on the ice for the final 30 seconds. That, my FHFriends is something else.

swarkles said...

Haha at least Bob Cole didn't call the Canadiens cockroaches like this one guy on VS during the Caps series.

God I love Squid. I chose my new Habs tshirt correctly at the beginning of the season.

Young HF29 said...

just re-watching the end of game melee, all started by Whiny's cross-check on Pleks. fuck you, you little bitch. and then he goes whining to the refs after!! un-fucking-believable

iRiRi said...

Woah. Evenko just emailed me with a presale for Game 7 at the Bell. That was fast.

Kate said...

Oh. my. God.

Hmmm, methinks we have a playoff team, no? Die fuckers die if you've ever shit all over Bob. Okay, I'll admit I farted on him for Koivu, but I'm over that now.

swarkles said...

Just the Max gif beautiful!

moeman said...

Moey, I deleted my Rats parody. I ♥ you.

Unknown said...

Ice Cream!

Didn't comment during the game, as in Game 4, and we won. I sense a trend.

Time for AntiCHambre!

The tears of Cindy Crosbaby taste so sweet.

moeman said...

pj sucks is dumbfounded. Some hockey expert. GFY in front of a mirror you 'out-in-3'-Piece-Of-Shit.

iRiRi said...

I bow down to this team. No Markov, no Gill and still chugging along.

Un-friggin'-believable.

*beams with pride*

Holy shit. RDS just said PFK played 30 minutes tonight! That's crazy.

kevincrumbs said...

Anyone see Jaro 2.0's interview on VS? Nothing special, except that towards the end, Squid emerges from behind and throws a bottle cap at Jaro 2.0's head and starts to laugh at him. Really good to see the team nice and relaxed and, gasp, they might actually like each other unlike last year's clusterfuck.

Thank God Kovy isn't around to fuck this shit up.

Kate said...

I love a post game depressed Dan. Don't you?

swarkles said...

Haha I saw that too

Kate said...

Okay, I'm off to see what Jack (24) is up to tonight.


Nighty night!!

moeman,

*blows kisses*

mr. gillis said...

Crosby's a bitch. I have photo evidence of why crosby never gets any penalties. The reason is that he litterally, sucks

Number31 said...

NORTH DIVISION CHAMPS!
Bulldogs ousted the fucktard goonsquad farmteam of the Flames.
Sanford shutout.
4-0 Desharnais, Palushaj, Trotter, Benoit, OH MY
The awesome continues.

Will face either the Stars or their old coaches Ron and Don in Chicago (and Greg Stewart) :O!

moeman said...

Bonsoir les ami(e)s! Je vous aimes.

moeman said...

One last comment;

"During a TV timeout after Cammalleri's second goal, the fans at the Bell Centre gave the Canadiens a two-minute standing ovation that had the players standing in awe, surely an inspiration for the remainder of the game."

Number31 said...

Who's going to watch Game 7 at the Bell Centre?

Fake said...

M-A Godin of La Presse just tweeted about that! Game 7 on the giant screen at the Bell Centre!

Baruch said...

wowooooooooooooo
hoooooooooooooooooooooo ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ !!!

Number31 said...

No way Crosby gets anything for cross checking Pleks when the game was over eh. Superstar treatment.

I love my tinfoil tuque.

Young HF29 said...

@N31 - HAHAHAHAHA. discipline on Sid. good one.

moeman said...

Make it go viral kidz.

Howard said...

GO HABS! GO SQUID! GO PFK! GO PANTS!!!

wv I'm totally lorked on the Habs!

kevincrumbs said...

Wait, I thought we were supposed to hate anything related to L'Antichambre.

lawyergirl77 said...

Holy fucking shit, YOU GUYS!!!!!

My Habbies make me cry tears of joy. The character... The drive... The passion...

But, etched in my mind forever is the look on their faces during the standing O after Squid's secod goal.

Pure joy on their faces.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: I LOVE THIS TEAM!! boys, you're making the ghosts proud...

HabScot said...

Can I get a FUCK YEAH!!!?!?!?!

Who's more scared of game 7 - us or the flightless wonders.

I think I know the answer

Young HF29 said...

FUCK YEAH!

TMS is up, if anyone wants highlights
