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

Everyone in the rink knows what Cole is going to do when he comes down that right wing…and they still can’t stop him. No deception required when you are a beast. Left-defensemen must HATE playing against him.
Man you can tell RC wanted to smile but kept his cool.
Good on them. Enjoy the break.
and finally a win that wasn’t to 90% Prices
Octopus on the ice!

Gee..and here I was half worried about bringing my camera in back when I went in October. Not to mention how cramped the seating was. Hard enough sitting there with a camera case hooked on your belt, Canadiens magazine on the floor by your feet and a beer in your hand….let alone an octopus… lol

Newfoundland’s biggest Habs fan. Hands down.
loved the octupus getting out there
It was Calamari having second thoughts about wanting to leave the team.
Ha!!!!
Yes it’s early but I think the Cammalleri trade was a good one for the Habs so far.
3-1-1 since the trade
#failfornail
THEM FREAKIN SHOOTOUT LOSSES !!!
Cole is the MVP of the season without a doubt! This guy has been a horse. Even tonight when teh game was blowout and as Boone pointed out he was a playing like it was 1-1. Kudos to Cole for bringing it this year!
Agree
No Chez Parée for Detroit…..
That was last night.
Get DD on for an empty-netter! go for 8!
Love that goal…..all hard work earned.
Nice play by Cole — our best player this season aside from Price. He doesn’t quit.
And #72 makes it 7-2!

wow Boone is so right. Cole plays with so much goddamn hustle, even though it’s 6-2 with less than 2 minutes left. What a keeper. 3 more years of this guy? Yes.
Apropos of nothing…There was a good point about Tim Thomas from usually miserable Boston Herald writer, Ron Borges.
Borges said that Thomas felt it was making a big statement to skip the White House visit, but that Thomas had no qualms about playing on the US Olympic team. So basically, when Thomas had something to lose, he did nothing, but when it was more convenient for him to “protest” he did.
Basically saying Thomas is a selfish hypocrite.
Cole is an ANIMAL! Love that signing.

Cole deserved that
Cole! Compete Forever!
Eller! Such a smart kid!
“Et le but!”
Yeah Cole got his goal
Cole just keeps going and going.
Congratulations to all the players for a wonderful team effort tonight. Sure, the Red Wings had a letdown, but our team played very well. This team is much better than most of us think it is.
Cole deserved that.
Man, did he deserve that.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
I cracked a cold one two hours before the puck dropped Boone!
CHA-CHING!!!
no no no no no no no no
This is not how you tank…. Jeez can we bring in players who don’t care ????
Trade Cole, DD, Gorges, Price etc….. right now….
Hopefully Habs can keep playing well after the AS break!
The bad news is the Habs will score no goals next game
How do you score no goals
lol
Remember last year? 8-1 against the Wild… and shut out 3 games in a row…
Great great game tonight.
The Boone jinx is alive and well.
Price is 1-0 with his new pads
Gorges made a nice smart play right at the end of the PP> Kept the puck in at the blue line but didn’t pinch in for the shot
Ericcsson was coming out of the box and if Gorges had moved up for the puck and missed, he would have been gone
“Et le but!”
Cant agree Gomez has been good. Dont know who you are watching Mr. Boone….
I agree with Boone.
The fans were booing him and he shut them up immediately with an assist.
He’s played well and made very good passes, and carried the puck well with no hint of his patented PTNs (Passes To Nobody).
—Hope Springs Eternal—
It’s easy to pick on Gomez though!

I do agree though

That’s all I can take, over to RDS.
Pretty smart play by plex
Habs not supporting
each other out there this frame
Cole is not impressed
Haikus are easy
but sometimes they don’t make sense

Cole is a pretty good player, huh? His effort is second to none nearly every shift. Tremendous to watch.
Tsn calls 1/6 of a hockey game.. The rest is babble and silence (which is fine).

Sean Gordon ought to know he covers the LAFFS!

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.
Is it just me, or do the Wings really push their luck with obstruction?
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Not just wings. Creeping its way back into game.
I think when you are best team in hockey for 12 years, you get away with more than others.
Come on keep pp going now, build on this boys, help shut up the two doorknobs in the booth
uh oh…detroit coming on…
DD almost with the hatty.
We can’t blow this big of a lead right….
Freakin’ DD’s a stud.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Miller and Ferraro haven’t been calling any game in the third just rubbing each other up in the booth. Oh how i wish i got RDS in HD, I would switch
I normally like Ferraro, but yeah, it’s brutal.
Haaaaaa!!!
—Hope Springs Eternal—
This team is quite capable of losing this game.
“Is the little dog going to yap, or is he going to bite?”
Boys got to ramp it up again.
+4
Yemmy out of position there
Take notice of P.K’s stick. I really think his stick is too long. He can’t get it around him quick enough sometimes and has to use his body. I just noticed it once and now it’s all I can think about when I see him battling

Newfoundland’s biggest Habs fan. Hands down.
And Kaberle’s stick is too short. Maybe they should split the difference.
Uh oh, cue the comeback….

So jeff carter is available and has a bad contract.what is PG waiting for.gomez,weber.kristo,first and second round picks for him
Why was that not tripping?
noooooo please do not be hurt
Coach benches Subban in a 4-0 game. Obviously he was dragging the team down.
Full Breezer 4 Life
You do know why he was benched, right?
You’re just being ornery?
—Hope Springs Eternal—
For the penalty? Who cares? Sure, no-one else ever takes a penalty.

In fairness, benching started at 2-0
Haha fair

PK! PK!

Why does TSN let that ass tickler Gord Miller keep his job? He’s worthless at the best of times, and always runs his stupid shut out schtick. Hate the guy. Hate, hate, hate.

Dear Mtl Canadiens,
Please beat Boston to tie the season series. You are about to cost me three bottles of rum in a little over a year.
Love,
Michael
Jeezus! Kaberle started that, Gomez helped, in the net
ahh, the dreaded 6 goal lead going into the 3rd. Habs already give one away.
Habs fan…Nuff said
Price should have had that!
stupid jerks on TSN had to go and ruin the shut out…
Miller was proud of himself.
All started with a bad clear from Kaberle. Is he being benched?
Gomez giveaway… benched?
Atleast we get the shutout talk out of the way!
That goal was on Gomez, he needs to get the puck out.
He needs to get the puck out of Montreal!
Full Breezer 4 Life
Ward and Crawford on TSN figure the Wings were just mailing it in tonight considering it was the last game before their vacation and their’s was the only game on the sked.

Uh oh. Third period crumble. Here we go
Gord Miller is an idiot! Thankfully I had the opportunity to tell him that at the ACC one night a few years back.
Applause!
He’s obviously never played a game of hockey in his life.

The problem is Gord thinks he’s an entertaining wit. He’s not. The more he sticks to just calling the game, the better off he’ll be in the long run.
Why is PK being benched?

AK 46 is a big six footer who can play, and scores at the rate of .56 points a game.
Why does anyone want to trade that guy, he is an asset, and is a plus player on his career even when playing with mostly a motley crew of indifferent line mates.
see my blog at http://noroomatthedump.blogspot.com/
Agreed.
That’s why he should be signed for at least 3.5 for 3
He’s our boy and we drafted him.
I think he cares about the team.
Pretty much R. Bourque type contract, no ?
I like AK 46′s statement on takin’ a home town discount.
Especially in these economic times.
Habs, OLE !
