"Now that's funny, I don't care who y'are"-Larry the cable guy.
Marchand ugh. Rules prohibit me from further extrapolation.
That's awesome of Hamilton. I remember when Nelson did that. I was surprised there was no payback. I'm learning Carolina is more focused on winning games than getting in game payback.

It was a good goal on a direct rebound, straight to his stick. Don't blame Marchand for doing his job.
Blame the sluggish CBJ backcheck, which is playing tonight with zero urgency. It almost looks like the Jackets don't even care if they win.
Bad hockey game.
Lots of people are.
A lot of the Bruins are passing more than shooting, which has been baffling. They score more when they shoot the puck, as a general rule.

I thought that was Wayne Gretzky who said that.
As a hockey fan, there are few things more maddening than watching your team practice passing drills all night, especially during a power play.

You wouldn't be referring to a certain team that wears black and gold and got swept in the first round, would you?
Well, St Louis won another road game to force a game 7 with Dallas. Stars played like CBJ did yesterday...lifeless and very little coherency. I was hoping they could have closed out the series today at home.
I thought that was Gretzky's quote, too. But I just had to look it up...some credit #99 while others credit Michael Jordan, and some sources say it was around long before those two. Regardless, it's 100% true!
FWIW...Nyrop's stats...twelve NHL goals over a four-year career. Funny, I remember him (vaguely) but thought he had a longer stint in the NHL than that.
He was the coach of a minor league(ECHL?)team in West Palm Beach[Palm Beach Blaze-Fire on Ice] around '92 when I heard the quote.
That stars game was a bummer. I was really surprised Bishop stayed in after that shot to the collarbone. Looks like he should have gotten out after it.
CBJs gotta do it tonight.

Just read this over the weekend. It was amusing, but probably could have been 50 pages shorter. It's pretty much a treatise on the torturous of being a Canadiens fan in that every season is a failure because the didn't win the cup again. Cry me a river, mon Habitanes. It did have some interesting examinations of fighting in hockey.
It's not so hard to win a gazillion cups when you're in a six team league. Although that '77 team was pretty good.Just read this over the weekend.

true, but they have as many as the next two combined
toronto- 13, detroit 11
And the wings, rangers, bruins, and blackhawks all put together only have three more than than Montreal.

They were allowed to draft two players from Quebec province in a special draft.

Tell that to the Rangers, Bruins and Blackhawks....not a Habs fan (obviously) but if you do the math, no team had won more cups post expansion than Montreal.
