The day my boner was Restored : Habs 3-4 Caps
MAN, did we need that?
We lost, so booo. But we almost won! That…that counts for something, right?
It wasn’t so much the result, but goddamn that performance made me not need viagra anymore.
We competed, we skated with the most explosive team in the NHL, we forechecked, we put pressure on their defensemen, we hit, we took shots, we avoided odd-man rushes – all in all, it was a major improvement.
I’m not saying it was a perfect performance, but it was much better than anything we’ve seen in the last month or so.
We weathered the early storm, and goddamn that team is scary. If you don’t like Alex Ovechkin, you don’t understand hockey. The man skates, hits, defends, passes, scores, dives to block shots and has fun doing all of it. The only thing he can’t do is defend 1 on 1′s – Koivu served him a steak dinner while going around him in the second period.
That goal he scored was ridiculous. I’m just wondering why Hamrlik doesn’t hit anymore. He used to be so defensively reassuring and not only was he at fault for the Caps’ first goal last night, he also took a stupid penalty on Backstrom (I believe).
I was just waiting for Laraque to go with Brashear, but I guess Donny didn’t wana go. Stupid STUPID STUPID penalty by Georges too.
Oh yeah, did Mathieu Schneider set a foot wrong? It also seems his mere prensence revitalized our powerplay. Three goals on the man advantage – what’s the catch? Are we gona go 0 for 78 in our next game? Yes, Pittsburgh will give us 78 penalties. They’re a violent bunch man
I have to mention Chris Higgins, who after being called out by me yesterday, obviously checked the website and decided to play his best game of the season. That or he just wanted to give Jean Perron a big FUCK YOU on national television. Tomas Plekanec had 6 shots on goal, scored a goal and almost gave us the win in O.T.
Another thing that gave me a boner was the fact that we held the Caps to just one shot on goal in 10 minutes in the final period, and not only that, the only way the best player in the league scored on us was with a miraculous play that made Sergei Samsonov look bad.
One more thing, Price is back baby! (no jinx, no jinx, no jinx)
