  • Game 5: Habs/Flyers

    Its a tough task ahead of the Canadiens tonight. Yes they’ve done it before, but doing it in the first round is an entirely different cookie than the third. The Habs have come up dry offensively in three of four games thus far, and will desperately need some scoring help from someone not named Cammalleri, Gionta or Moore. Who knows what lies ahead. I can only say its been a crazy spring that I do not wish to see end. I expect some inspired play for both teams tonight, and with any luck Montreal can score the first one to get the ball rolling. All hands on deck – the season hangs in the balance.

  • Game 3: Habs/Flyers

    It will be interesting to see what happens tonight as the Habs are at home for Game 3. A win tonight would definitely change the optics of this series which has been rough thus far for the Canadiens. If they squeak one out, most will still see the Flyers as a favorite, but many teams have come back from 2-0 leads in the past. In the playoffs its all about what you’ve done lately. Jaro knows all about this right now. One game in which Montreal can get to Leighton, and all the Bernie Parent talk will go flying out the window. Its all about getting players in position to collect rebounds and tip ins. Montreal will need to find a way to make things less predictable for the Flyers – especially on the powerplay where Philly is doing exactly what Montreal did for two rounds: pressure the puck to force turnovers, and collapse to the net. Montreal will need to get shots through the maze in order to have a chance.

    I won’t say much more. Its all been said. Its do or die time again for your Habs.

    Go Habs Go!!!
