Game Preview: HOME OPENING NIGHT! First game at home, guys! The crowd is going to be hectic! Famous players like Emile "Butch" Bouchard and others will make the opening faceoffs! DAMN! This is going to be one fgreaking awesome game! I CANNOT WAIT!
Final: Great games by Montreal, especially in the first to win it 4-3 in a shootout. I'm really dissapointed that we had to go to a shootout though. Freaking boards. I'm pissed off that it was because of a stupid bad bounce that tied the game... Other than that, Lapierre (I'm making a bold prediction here) is going to lead the Montreal Canadiens in Shorthanded goals. Great on the PK. Seriously I love how this team works. The other teams better have a very good defense on all their lines cause any of our lines can hurt them. Price and Thomas were awesome in goal, except for Tim in the first... he kept giving rebounds and that gave Montreal great chances, and we got three goals out of them. Andrei Markov only played foour games and he already has 6 assists! Latendresse is playing so well with Koivu and Tanguay, I'm afraid when Higgins will be back, he'll have to play with Lang a Sergei Kostitsyn (not really a bad thing). OOH! And George Laraque! Played his first game in a Canadiens' jersey officially! This was a very good match. We could even say it had Play-Offs atmosphere!
My three Stars: 1- Alex Tanguay 2- Marc Savard 3- Andrei Markov, Maxim Lapierre
Scoresheet: Montreal: Alex Kovalev, Saku Koivu, Maxim Lapierre, Alex Tanguay (Shootout winner) Boston: David Krejci, Marc Savard (2)
