We’re here, let’s make it count
82 games were played in the regular season to get to where we are right now. The players, and fans, have had to endure a very average centennial season.
But having gotten here, we can’t look back on that. We played 82 games and got just enough points to be in the postseason, and we have to make it count.
Forget the two games in Boston, there’s no use looking back at them now. Game 1 was our best chance of winning one on the road but it didn’t happen. We had no business winning game 2 and the Bruins deservedly got the W.
The playoffs aren’t a place for boo-birds. If you’re one of the lucky few who managed to get tickets to tonight’s game, cheer loud for the guys in red.
I love Carey Price as much as the next 15 year old girl, but the kid’s confidence is sinking by game. Remember, this is a guy who was drafted 5th overall in ’05, and Gainey has put all his confidence in the 21 year old.
Will he go with Price again tonight? I don’t know that. But what I do know, other than the fact that condoms suck, is that it’s not good for the ‘Franchise’s’ confidence to have been pulled and replaced in a playoff game two years in a row.
Milan Lucic isn’t playing tonight, but I don’t give a fucken fuck about Milan Lucic. We have to stop giving up our blueline so easily, be better defensively, get scoring from someone that’s not named Alex Kovalev and be more disciplined. If we do these things and play with intensity, we have a good chance of beating this Bruins team.
This edition of the Boston Bruins isn’t much better than this edition of your Montreal Canadiens, but they are way more confident. A team that loses its top scorer 3 times during the regular season and its best player for the start of the playoffs will always be shaken up.
But the players have to find something, anything, inside them to keep going and keep going hard. Tonight they’re coming to our house, so let’s make it count.

There’s a lot of comparables between the Habs this season and the Sens last season. Let’s hope they have a better next season than the Sens did.
