My night yesterday: I’ve rarely seen stuff go this bad in a matter of minutes on an otherwise perfectly normal night. You know what I’m talking about of course. Halak was traded, and while everyone was freaking out because the habs only got two unknown prospects in return, Mexico was busy ousting France from the [...]

YEEEEEES! Happy birthday, PK and Jaro, you can have as much cake as you want today… ~~~ As I often did during these playoffs, I stayed away from the internet during most of the day until I finally got a chance to watch THE game. It was really a torture not to check the result, [...]

They’re coming, and they’re not happy. But we have a simple answer: Boom Shak Halak Ah! Do the Shack Halak Halak! No need to tell you how big this game is. Can the habs actually take a lead in this series, or will the Pens regain their home ice advantage? The Habs have been way [...]

It’s coming.

(photo taken from this SI gallery) WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I’m sorry Canada, I love you, but I just can’t root against Jaro. Halakomania is running wild here (and by “here”, I mean in my living room). Go Jaro!

Montreal can thank former Czechoslovakia for Pleks and Jaro. Yesterday’s game was very similar to the last few games Montreal played before Christmas. The habs were badly outshot, and were dominated for large parts of the game. But Jaroslav Halak was hot. Offensively, Pleknec and Kostitsyn keep on piling up points (10 points in 4 [...]

Yes Jaro, blocking everything that’s thrown at your goalie hurts. Just like the first time the Habs and the Sens met this season, I’m in a biblical mood. Seriously, that was a nice little win yesterday night. But if Spacek is seriously hurt, it’s going to get tough. I stayed away from the internet all [...]

Game 13: (I’ll be honest here, this photoshop idea directly comes from the avatar of weazel-1, a poster at the official blackhawks discussion board. I stumbled upon it looking for a pic of Huet, and I couldn’t resist redoing it) I love this picture so much I could just end the post here. But I [...]

Jaro, why do people always want to hurt you? You never really got your chance in Montreal this season, even when Carey struggled, because he’s the future of the franchise. So when the habs get swept in the playoffs, you finally get the opportunity to play for Slovakia in the world cup.  Things are looking [...]

I’m really sorry about the lack of updates on the blog, but I’m completely overwhelmed with work these days, and unfortunately it shouldn’t really get better until next week… Also, I’ll be travelling to Brussels from wednesday to friday, which means I will probably miss all the fun of the trade deadline. Damn! It’s frustrating, [...]
