That’s four in a row for your mighty Montreal Canadiens.
Best thing was it didn’t come easily.
The Winnipeg Jets, who were ridding a three-game winning streak of their own, fell behind 2-0 before battling back to take the lead.
A third-period goal by Tomas Plekanec, on the deadly Canadiens power-play, was the only goal of the third period.
Carey Price, who was shaky on the first couple Jets’ goals, made huge saves down the stretch.
Canadiens penalty-kill was great late, when it had to be.
Brendan Gallagher, with a goal and an assist, was the game’s First Star.
His linemate, Alex Galchenyuk, had two assists and was Second Star.
On to Ottawa.

could somone please KO that ref?????
What the sh.. is this?

Oh what fresh hee is this?
Therrien telling the linesman to F off..hehehe
Prust nailed and EVERYONE dives in.
So much push-back from these Habs.
Full Breezer 4 Life
Really Prust gets a penatly, WTF!!!!!
careful what you say about “older” ladies..:-)
Nice reflex save by Price
Cole with the 2 Gallys could be a dynamite offensive line. Therrien is thinking out there, not just throwing players together at random like Jacques The Juggler Martin.
newsflash were not the only ones that do the Ole thing..as a matter of fact the fans were singing it at the Canada/USA gold game during the Vancouver Olympics..the fans are having fun…let them be..
I wonder if Vezina would have made that save?
…just spent almost 40 mind-bending minutes with an older lady trying to subscribe to RDS …she ‘wondering’ why I’m a Montreal Canadiens’ Fan and not at least a Maple Leaf fan …real difficult difficult debating with a lady of a certain age as You can’t let fly with an acid tongue I sometimes am known to use
Anyhow, I survived Weed Nation …cancelled Centre Ice …and listening now a la langue de Moliere en RDS
Looks like Price is back on his game.

Me skull and crossbones arn’t the only thing I plan on raisin’ tonight.
Pricey, please shut the door!
Love how that Jets Enstrom #39 chokes up on his stick shaft depending on the situation eg. In his feet……
We’ve watched the Habs take the short end of penalty calls for years now. Martin never called the refs on it. It’s time Therrien does.

Cmon Prust, thats a terrible penalty to take.
Up 1 goal and 200 feet from your net.
Go Habs Go!

Dunno. Pavelic was out of his crease
That really has become a copout call. Thanks to the ape in Boston.
Winnipeg announcers just said what I think: DD needs to adjust his game because they are all over him this year.
Damn
Gallagher is making DD look really small….
IN GALLY’S WE TRUST…
The funny thing about the Ole song is it doesn’t matter if it’s just a happy song. If the other team perceives it as mockery and gets galvanized, or our team believes it brings bad luck, then that’s what it becomes.
I don’t believe in superstition, but if players do it might affect them one way or the other.
Hey guys, if you have a chance (and the channel) check out whats on RDS 2 right now (during a commercial)! They are showing the first televised cricket match on Quebec television! My cricket coach, Senyo, the founder of Cricket Montreal, is commentating. Be sure to take a look, thanks!
The two Gallys are the real deal.

Does a puck deflected out of play count as a blocked shot in the case of Gorges getting in the way of a shot ?
yes

Merci…
Markov is obviously making a HUGE difference to PP, but I think we also have to give some credit to Gerard Gallant and his coaching.
This smart PP strategy was missing last year after Muller left, and it seems like Gallant knows what he’s doing with the PP.
So while Markov is a huge part of it… I don’t think he’s the only part of it either.

Who’s the coach for the pk, cuz he has some work to do.

I can’t remember when the last time I called the Habs tenacious but I’m saying it now.
its hard to hate the Jets.

Toronto wins in OT. The parade is back on, the dynasty continues in Toronto.
Time for some Oleation
There they are….on the fourth line together with Cole.
Holy crap does Galchenyuk have a nose for the net.

Clearly Gallagher and Galchenyuk got this from Gomez.
The “nose for the net” Gomez had is when he was surfing the net for porn
Little puke Marchand wins it in a shootout
Could we have someone teach our guys how to not get kicked out of the face off circle
Maybe the linesmen should start kicking the players out literally. That would learn them fast
I think we got this one. Price will shut them down in the 3rd.
Dats bein’ positive!

Subotai: They blow where I live too. In the north of every man’s heart.
Conan: It’s never too late, Subotai.
Subotai: No. It would only lead me back here another day. In even worse company.
Conan: For us, there is no spring. Just the wind that smells fresh before the storm.
Ok. At risk of repeating myself (please refer to the bottom of the very long lynching posted below), I oopsed! Apologies. Markham it is.
Uless you use traanslator id say not brampton

Really loving this team right now…..something special could be brewing here. Goals coming from everyone.
Habs, OLE !
The powerplay this year is unreal compared to the train wreck of last year.
What a great goaltending duel tonight!
Did GIO tip that one….?
IN GALLY’S WE TRUST…
Markov – What a difference one player makes to a team’s PP…..
This game has Vezina is rolling in his grave.
Speaking of Vezina… Just looked at updated Race… Gorges is second in voting behind Crawford!!!
IN GALLY’S WE TRUST…
Nice to see us dangerous this year. PP looking good… now, get it out of our zone! What is that? Every time we score, it looks like we sit back…

Way to go Pleks! Power plays are looking pretty important this year, more so than usual.

C’mon use this pp to bury it
I don’t know seems like a night of tick tack penalty calls.
Gionta has drawn a few this year
landscapes? portraits?
Awesome forechecking by 14-17-21
Gallagher reminds me a little of Michael ryder with those toe drag snap shots
…can’t believe how well the Gallys are playing
…sublime
…bone-headed penalties undoing all the positive-energy
I think the reason for so many penalties is that the Refs are trying to fit in 82 games of penalties in a 48 game schedule.
What a stop, that’s more like it.
Ironic seeing that they call him Armdog…

Never liked DD. I think he comes crashing down this season.
3P 18:51 DUMB Armstrong. In a 3-3 game. Brutal
sums it up nice
That was not an elbow.

Another terrible call. These refs are morons.
Not even close to a terrible call. His elbow came up after the follow through and took his man in the face with it.
Renault Lavoie, the most reliable reporter covering the Habs, IMO, just announce during the intermission that Paul Kelly confirmed today that the league will expand by 2 teams in 2 years. Quebec and Brampton.
Brampton? Do you mean Markham… cause there is 0 chance they go to Brampton.

Markham might be building new arena with George Gillet involved.
Brampton is getting a CHL minor professional team next season to replace the junior team that went to North Bay……
Perhaps they want to create a GTA division to ensure that Toronto has a team in the play offs every season?
–Go Habs Go!–
Brampton?
Brampton? I live in Brampton, we just lost our OHL team. Well, they’re here for now but next year or the year after they’re gone to Sudbury I think.
Edit: North Bay as otter said.
Brampton is losing their ohl team to north bay next year due to lousy attendance,i doubt the nhl has any chance of going there.
Brampton’s arena couldn’t support it even if it did… like 5000 or 6000 capacity.
Its gotta be Markham.
Go Habs Go!

I also hope it is 2 teams moving to hockey markets,not 2 expansion teams.
Sorry guys. My mistake. Markham it is. (feeling sheepish)
