Game 5 Don't give up just yet...

Well, I guess things aren't going exactly to plan.

After two stunning series victories the Canadiens have looked, well, like they did midseason when nothing was going right.

Really, 1 shot in the second period? Poop is kinda hitting the fan. Well it's not the time to give up just yet, the Habs have come back game after game after game, each time their backs were against the wall. This city just has to keep believing. They can still kick some ass, even if they are the big bad Flyers.

In other news, the Blackhawks advanced to their first Stanley Cup Final since 1992 and seem to be a team on a mission, their deep group of talent is certainly impressive, with Olympic MVP Jonathan Toews, Calder Trophy winner Patrick Kane, Slovakian superstar Marian Hossa and Norris Trophy candidate Duncan Keith.. Whoever comes out of the East will have their hands full with that All Star line up.

Have faith boys n girls. The show ain't over yet.

Peace true believers,

Hockey D-Day. Canada Russia

Let's hope we get some Henderson-esque heroics tonight. It's not going to be easy, the Russians shoot often, skate fast, and have Ovechkin. Need I say more. It seems like a lot of people in this country are panicking, and turning on players who before this "apocalyptic" loss to the States, were considered national heroes. To the people of Canada: CHILL THE HELL OUT.

Maybe it was a little naive to believe that Canada would roll through the competition, and before people start writing Obituaries before we even take to the ice, let's consider this.

Russia lost to the Slovaks, who in turn, almost lost to the Norwegians yesterday.

Does this mean that Norway and Russia would tie?

No you ingrates, it just means we have no idea what will actually happens until the puck drop tonight.

We are going to need consistent goal tending from Roberto Luongo tonight, he needs to show that he can win the big game. We need to get a lot of shots early and get Evgeni Nabokov out of a groove, we need to convert on the Power Play, no more oh fors, and slow down their skill players with big hits.

Is it a lot to ask for?

I don't know, is it a lot to ask for the best players in our country to play well executed Hockey?

We have a shot tonight, go out and cheer for you country Canada.

Peace,

Coyotes Habs... Come on......

1-0....

Seriously.

Could not score a friggin goal.

Well maybe 12 months ago a game against the lowly Phoenix Coyotes would have been a breath of fresh air, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

They have to learn how to play hockey all of a sudden.

This team.... I need a drink.

Coach Martin will name his starter later today, and really it is not going to matter if the Offense does not show up.

Say some yiddish prayers for the Canadiens.

Yeesh.

We need a win.

Peace
