Wednesday Night Blues

The Lake= Endless Playoff Possibilities
The Dead Tree= The Montreal Canadiens Season 
Did we really just skip spring?

The temperatures are well above 20c, people are out riding their bikes and roller blading in parks, and the Montreal Canadiens are finished for the season.  All of these should be tell-a-tale signs that summer is here, unfortunately, that is not the case.

If that is not a big enough slap in the face, tonight the Habs play Buffalo....yeah, not that exciting.  It would take a solid 6 pack, and some decent wagers to even get me interested in following tonights game.

It's so bad that TSN-Habs isn't picking up the action tonight.  If you want to watch it, it's RDS French or nothing.

This blows, not that there is anything wrong with French....

In the meantime you can watch a possible Stanley Cup Final in the Rangers vs Red Wings on TSN2 tonight.  Or, if they don't get you going, Vancouver is playing Chicago on TSNs Wednesday night hockey.  Both in the mother tongue by the way.

Why can't we be playing any four of these teams tonight??  I don't care how badly the Habs get beaten anymore, heck as I watch the games in flip flops and shorts I'm usually cheering for the other team.

Just imagine it, beer in hand, Habs jersey on, shorts and flip flops, it feels like playoff time.  Montreal is taking on Patrick Kane, or Pavel Datsyuk, or Brad Richards, or the Sedins.  Losing never felt so beautiful! But instead we get to take on Tyler Myers, Tyler Ennis, and Cody Hodgson.  Let's hope Ennis plays like he did last week, and if we're lucky, we might just lose this pointless game tonight.

We are fucked

As my friend AngryHabsFan eluded to already, yesterday was the end of the world as we know it for Sens fans. Matt Cooke's skate caught Karlsson in the Achilles tendon last night on a scuffle in the corner. First off don't even think that this was Matt Cooke being a dirty player and that he did this on purpose. It was just one of those freak plays that happen. No timeline has been given yet for Karlsson's return but I think its safe to say that he won't be back this season. Hopefully he can return from this injury and still be a great player. We already have Michalek playing on robotic knees so hopefully EK can get a hold of Milo's doctor. Speaking of Michalek he also disappeared before the game last night with a mysterious undisclosed injury. No word on what exactly is the extent of his injury yet. So without Spezza, Michalek, Karlsson and Jared Cowen I think its safe to say we are fucked and need to focus on shipping out Gonchar at the deadline and going

LOSER Tonight and this afternoon will be an outright cluster&@$^.  I can't even begin to try to calculate who we are going to end up playing in the first round.  If we lose tonight it will be the Leafs, simple as that.  If we win and Boston loses their game to Washington then things will get interesting tomorrow night in the finale game of Ottawa vs Boston.  So basically win for drama and lose to play the Leafs.   My heart says lose and sweep the Leafs out in the first round for what would be revenge for every Saturday night game of my childhood living in Ontario.  My sensible self says win and end up playing an easier team seeded way lower than us.  It is going to be an interesting 40 hours ahead.  Oh, and if we draw the Sens in the first round I'd be all over some tickets, so kinda hoping for that too. Gametime is 7PM on CBC. Go Habs Go!
