The Canadiens head into All-Star weekend on a high with a resounding 7-2 win over the number one team in the league.
Max Paciorety made franchise history by scoring the 11,400th home-ice goal … to make it 5-0 in the second period.
This game illustrated why no sane person bets on sports.
The parade will follow its usual route: from the Bell Centre to the Douglas Hospital

Emelin ..that was a very nice pick. He looks great
So on another topic, who will be last player drafted at NHL allstar draft?
Emelin-Kaberle after two… 1G 2A 3 Pts +8
EDIT: +6
TSN panel…McKenzie is the only one with brains on that thing. Said that “it happens all the time in the NHL” that d-men get sat down for making too many mistakes. It’s like PK is the first boisterous 22 year old in history to make defensive mistakes mixed with the odd bad penalty> “IT”S UNFORGIVABLE!!” sayeth Ray Ferraro of PK’s selfish elbow. LOL..I’ve already forgiven him so I don’t know what he’s talking about.
Habs got away from that 4 on 4 situation up 3-0. Ya hes forgiven. Ferraro is a moron. I thought i wanted McGuire gone, i’d rather him than ferraro
Last time Canadiens popped six on Detroit was … 1993
by Mike Boone 3:18 AM
Hmmm… Lol
Habs or Die
Boone is a puss, I’ll tell him to his face…why? I want to go to the next summit to tell him to his ugly face.

Got to give Gomez credit for getting the speed game going! terrific rush and pass in front for the goal.!
Just watched the RDS break…excellent observation on PK. Yes keep him off, the rest of the match in my opinion. Wake up!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kiss my hAbSS!!!
I’m sure he’ll see some time in the 3rd.
Not his regular shift tho.
Benching him for the whole game is just insulting him, and will get his pride up.
That’s not the goal. He’s thought it over, he should have a chance to redeem himself.

Don’t like ur reply. Matthole… sorry male PMS!

So if this Twilight Zone episode continues, will we wake up to a Gomez to NYR for Richards, McDonaugh and a first?

$100 says tonight CNN will report that Elvis is indeed alive and exiled in the late ’70s due to rapid and uncontrollable premature balding.
You heard it here first.
What did Gorges say?????
Mentioned how it shows we are all accountable to be better, and this sends that message. I don’t remember exact words, but well spoken
Thanks for both responses men!
Great game to watch eh Ian!!!
Bob McKenzie made great comments on the PK benching, how it is not unusual happens all the time, young dmen, but because is Montreal and because it is PK everyone will talk about it.
Totally agree with his comments. Nice to see he isn’t making a big deal out of it.
Totally!
Like I said, he’s had time to think it over, and he’s a big boy, he’ll be fine.
I’m sure he’s just worried about explaining it to his dad, who RDS interviewed in the TO game, and who watches all the games!
—Hope Springs Eternal—
I was hoping for a win, but jeez, who woulda thunk it that the team is up 6-0?
_____________________________
Don’t let the wultures getcha.
TSN will mention the PK sitting lopsided win. OR at least make a HUGE deal about as Miller and Ferraro did for the last 6 minutes of the period.
If Gomez scores, that place is gonna go wild
I really do not know what to post here, except is this fun or what?
Detroit came out fast and hard and it forced us to go 100% and we took the game over. Stay on the gas peddle and do not get lazy.
PK will play in the 3rd, message needed and sent.
Is this lead safe?

What does the Commissioner of the NHL do?
In short, a league commissioner is the action man for the Board of Governors.
They tell him what they want done and he works to make it happen through his subordinates while making sure that individual franchises play by the rules.
******** Translated if you haven’t won the Stanley Cup in 40 years your NHL team is becoming irrelevant in a sports mad city long behind MLB, NFL and NBA teams, you just tell the commissioner(who you gave a new contract at 7 plus million per) to make it happen and the rules are bent sufficiently to action the command.
I just got home and put my kid to bed, then what do I see!? 6-0!!!??? Did I go through a portal to a paralel universe or what?
Wow!! I’m gonna have to eat my words tomorrow at work I guess…
So this is kinda fun eh?

Whoa…good comment by Gorges.
***Subbang Baby!!!***
What was it?
I missed it, what did he say?
_____________________________
Don’t let the wultures getcha.
Along the lines of being held accountable, and benching of a player means that he’s got to be better, the team has to be better.
Yah, good leader there we got.
dont wanna be a party pooper, but i think pk is being singled out by medias, coaches and some fans. his penalty was braindead, but the way they are treating pk, i think its going to be roy 2.0
The full Jekyll tonight. I will never understand this team but I sure am enjoying this one!
So does the media headline PK sitting or the lopsided win.
WTF ?
Am I in the twilight zone or what ?
OK , I know in a 7 game series we would get spanked….
but 2nite’s performance of Les Boyz makes me wonder sometimes how we’re in the basement and not in lets say 6th ?
Eff this team effs me up ?
Habs, OLE !

Benching PK now is a great move.
His penalty was totally selfish and is a perfect embodiment of selfishness and non-team play.
We’re up 6-0, we don’t need to play tight, it’s a very effective way of getting a message across to him.
He doesn’t want a trade. He knows why he’s sitting there, and he’s had 20 long minutes (plus breaks!) to think about it.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Agree. That being said, I’d like to see him back out there for the 3rd.
I agree. He’s got plenty of time to think about it!
You let him play, third pairing minutes for the third?

Wow! Turn on my phone to check scores and find the most unusual things being reported on HIO tonight!!
go habs
A game without controversy? Don’t worry, the Habs will create it.
If PK deserves to be benched bc of an elbow and giveaway so be it!
The they can surely sit Gomez’s ass when he is screwing the pooch like he was the other nite.
I hope the put him back on and dont kill his confidence.
I think the Wings rolled into town expecting an easy win, but met the New Habs.
This team is not the one that started the season, and the GM has traded for and acquired some of what the team needs from the AVAILABLE talent, not the pipe dreams of the commentariat.
And a little bit of the lost luck from the first half of the season is coming back home.
Toronto is overdue for a long losing streak as is their tradition.
see my blog at http://noroomatthedump.blogspot.com/
Just for the record, we still have a losing record under RC.
The games are more entertaining, and the energy appears better, but the New Habs are getting the same results as the Old Habs.
F**k the record
People were comparing Pleks with Datsyuk a couple of years back and up until this year I agreed.
Looks like all he needs is a couple of big wingers like Franzen and Bertuzzi and that comparison is back on.

Me likes Bourque, Pleks & Gomez!!!!
me likes them too. imagine having 2 steady lines, what a luxury!!!

Biggest misnomer in the world is the Gordie Howe Hat Trick, Gordie Howe only ever did it one time in a 26 yrs career!
If anything, it should be a Shanahan trick, he leads all comers with 14 of them.
A Shanahan Hat Trick is not suspending 3 Bruin players for flagrant violations.
too good !
Habs, OLE !
Okay Ferraro and Miller there is a game to call, shut up about PK already,
6-0!! Does anybody know if Gomez scored tonight?
http://www.didgomezscore.com/
Desharnais, Bourque, and Pacioretti all fight for the Gordie howe hat-trick hat-trick!!
each other? imagine the tsn headline!

I guess all the scouts have left the arena…
Put Gomez in there to kick the point after!
6-0 and Blunden is diving head-first to break up a play. Gotta love it.
saw that, great great hustle.
We’re gonna have a nice 4th line when White returns, eh?
Yah, should be fun to watch.
PK riding the pines. I wonder if he will get the message?
“Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.” Albert Einstein
Let’s hope so.
Three players need only a fight for the Howe. Could we have a Howe hat-trick hat-trick?
The Red Wings are a team to model on. The NHL’s so-called best. Nonsense. That’s why you never listen to the media. One game without Lidstrom and they show their true colors.
Let the Red wings play an entire season without Lidstrom.
Gauthier should not listen to the media. The Canadiens are not going to tank. Don’t get rid of key players for useless draft picks. The future is now. They can easily catch mediocre teams like the Caps, Leafs, Panthers etc.
Habs have been without their Lidstrom (Markov) and their captain (Gionta) all year and most of last year in Markov’s case. Yet no one ever seems to factor that into their standings.
this is great…amazing even…but lets not make any ridiculous assumptions based on one game.
if those mediocre teams are way above the Habs in the standings, what does that make the Habs
PK LOOKS LIKE HE WANTS TRADE……
Watching the first period cured my IBS.
Considering another poster already said they wet themself, I don’t even want to know what happened in your case.
I’m a huge PK fan and hope he’s here for a long time, but after that selfish elbow in the first period, I said to myself “I hope he ride’s the pine the rest of the night”. Bad penalty, he has to learn you simply do not take a penalty like that; especially in a game where it’s 2 – 0 and you know your team struggles with leads!
It’s a good time for a few days off to “CHILL” in the words of C. Price

coming in with good stats from the BD
hope he can do well.. love this guys size..
give a hand to Weber too.. playing decent
“Emelin’s the real deal.”
- HabCez
Yeah, NBC is saying PK appears benched.
The answers are:
a) DD is too small
b) Kaberle trade was bad
c) Cammy trade was bad
d) Gomez is useless

Against the Rangers, Red Wings, Habs win when least expected.
The weird thing is they’ll probably lose against the struggling Sabres next week.

That looked like a nice dive.. Guess there desperate now.
I apologize to DD for calling him dd.
I heard they wouldn’t call up LL cuz they don’t want you to have to change your HI/O handle!
I might have to change it to elle elle. LOL
Carbo deserves a medal pointing out Desharnaise to the front office .
It was not Carbo…@ss wipe.

Kiss my hAbSS!!!
What’s up with P.K.?
P.K is definitely benched.
Ridiculous. Let him play.
did you see the penalty he took – not acceptable
Teach him a lessson…yes, bench away.

Kiss my hAbSS!!!
Hey, anybody else catch RetroMikey saying “Big deal”?
It’s finally clear where that dude’s head/heart is.

Question: has anyone here tried hockeystreams.com to watch the games? I’m considering subscribing but would like a review or two from within the HIO community.
_____________________________________
They brought their f____ing toys with them!
6 Goals, including a Power Play goal? Really?
Whats next Gomez scores? Wait, no Markov starts the third?
Should be back to normal when we play the Sabres next week.
It’s only a matter of time before DD gets his shot at the Hat Trick!
“34-0″ is currently in the title for this page. Is that a “fearless prediction” for the final tally?
We can relax in the 3rd..anyone seen Subban in the 2nd
Boone might be on to something…could be 34-0 before night is over.
The last time there was such a goal spread between these two teams was back in 1995. Wings won 11-1
Really? Wow, who was in net for the Habs back then? Moog? Hacket? Thibault?
Get another one!
PK benched. Interesting!
Trade the assistant coach and bring Larry R home.
Robert Heinlein was right, Time travel is possible – it’s the 1970′s all over again!
Nah, it’s the 1950s. Habs wore their red at home in the 1950s, their white at home in the 1970s.
In the 1950′s all I ever saw was white and grey jerseys. No color until the 60′s
6 goals on the last 10 shots!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kiss my hAbSS!!!
34-0 hahahaha…frig your a funny man…
It’s official..we can relax in the tired
Well if they manage to lose this one they deserve to be shot.
Maybe they should put both goalies in???
At this point they should pile up 5 players in front of the net and play with one forward only!
lol
I am loving these lines.
There’s no way you can stop our offense, you can only hope to contain it.
Bad news! The teams switched jerseys before the game!
Holy! a pp goal. I’m in shock.
pk get traded mid period? lol
ill be in the slot
