I'm Back

My last post wasn't too pleasant and I decided to take a somewhat long vacation from the Habs. If by vacation, I mean going to Montreal to watch the team live rather then just getting upset watching them on television, then , yes, that would constitute a vacation from the Habs. A lot has happened since my last win or fire Carbo rant so lets get started. I will not talk about O'Byrne as my head will explode if the name I will never mention is ever said again. The man is at Voldemort status when it comes to radioactive names and yes I'm a nerd cause I read Harry Potter. I will also not talk about the Wings game because my partner already did a fine job getting Maislin off (though that's not saying much). I was also on a plane that night so I missed our 3 goal 2nd period. Where was I heading? Montreal, home of such celebrities as William Shatner, Pierre McGuire, and myself. I caught 2 games, the first on the tele and the second at the Bell Centre. I got really drunk after both.

The Caps

-That game was so bad, I didn't even get upset. I didn't care. We, how do I say, played one of those games in which our players afterwards said things like "they wanted it more" and "we didn't come prepared." Starting to sound familiar, huh. 

-How the hell does every player sans the goalie play like dogsh#t? I get 1 or 2 or 3 or even a half dozen players slumping but an entire team. People, as much as Kovi is struggling so is everyone else.

-We're down 1 goal heading into the 3rd and the Caps show up. I mean after a decent 2nd, did the players just decide to mail it in? I'm asking a lot of rhetorical questions but I don't know what to say. EMBARRASSING!

-The PP. It Sucks. It Sucks. It Sucks. Carbo, the problem may be the structure that you haven't changed and EVERY team has studied and figured out. Placing 4th line players on a PP that sucks already won't do the trick. Oh Wait, they didn't score, figures.

-3-0, one sided, and Theodore can now sleep at night using Propecia or not. I was upset so I drank some and then went out to Gar Mange  (I think that's how you spell it) and drank some more. Highlight of the night: stopping a fight at 4 in the morning. Go Habs Go

The Sabres

- I sadly was not excited for this game even as much as I should of. I had great seats 12th row, section 124, next to my big bro. I don't  have much to say about the game except:

-We won. it was W so I was happy. I thought we deserved the win though it could have gone both ways. But it was 2 points baby.I know how to celebrate 1 measly win, I'm a Clipper fan.

-Carbo has gone nuts with those lines. The guy thinks the key to everything is juggling lines. I did like Lang with Kovalev but that was it. I mean the players have to reintroduce themselves on every shift. At least coach is starting to realize he has a time out to use every game.

-Staying on Carbo, I am too young to remember 1993 so I don't care that Carbo was our captain. People feel loyal to the guy cause he was captain then but times change. Just because the guy was a great team player on the ice doesn't make him a good coach. Some guy at Cage aux Sports was telling me that Carbo deserves more leeway because of 1993. Screw that. I want to win now and I think Carbo hurts us now. 1993 is long gone (16 years folks). Lets stop holding on to the past in order to create a better present as well as future. 

-The PP. It Sucks. It Sucks. It Sucks. A 5 on 3 and we couldn't score. Thank goodness we won the game.

- After the game I celebrated like it was 1999 and Shayne Corson jerseys were in style. I went to this place called Coco on St. Laurence and had way to many JD shots. I got home at 4 after some delicious Pogos at La Belle Province and the woke up at 5 to catch my flight back to L.A.
What a flight. I think I spent more time in the bathroom then I did in my sit. Tomorrow is the Thrashers and we better thrash them. I predict 12-1 and Lapierre gets laid.
