Post-Game Talk: Game 15 - Les Canadiens disent merci à la salle de conférence à Toronto - Poutineville 5 BRUINS 4 F

[Aussie Bruin]

I am amused that official Canadiens highlights in French make NO MENTION of the offsides call

Bruins 4, Canadiens 5

In the condensed game video they showed the goal being overturned, but didn't actually show any footage of Coyle skating over the blue line. So it was acknowledged that it happened, but clearly the league or whoever actually produces the videos wasn't keen to show the actual piece of play.

of course not. Why would they? It would only serve to take away from their glorious victory over a clearly inferior opponent.

EDIT: I’m still holding out hope that the New York Times one day investigates the NHL’s officiating practices.

I will never agree with the bolded.

Last night will go down as an insignificant loss in the grand scheme of things. A game 7 loss to the Maple Leafs? Not even in the same universe. That would hurt for months.

I know I already quoted and replied to this post, but I just feel the need to say more.

This was no ordinary game, and this is no ordinary rivalry. I really hate that team that much.

I’m going to draw a parallel from an old football anecdote I heard once...

Many moons ago, the Bears were in Green Bay to play the Packers, and George “Papa Bear” Halas was the Bears’ coach.

Halas made his way over to the Packers’ locker room shortly before kickoff, and knocked on the door. The door was answered by a Packers assistant coach who said, “Coach Halas, what can I do for you?”

Halas replies, “I MUST speak with Coach Lombardi. It’s very important.”

“Coach Lombardi is very busy, as you must know. Are you sure it can’t wait until after the game?”

“It can’t wait another minute. I have to see him now,” said Halas.

The assistant goes to get Lombardi.

Packers Head Coach Vince Lombardi comes to the door and asks, “Coach, I’m very busy. How can I help you?”

George Halas looks Vince Lombardi square in the eye and says, “You better have your boys ready today because we are going to kick your ass.” Without another word, Papa Bear turns around and walks away.

THAT is how I feel about the Canadiens.

I was shocked listening to TSN this morning, it was unanimous that it was a coin toss. Shocked they would admit that.

 

[Dueling Banjos]

Yeah it stinks, pretentious self-appointed aristocrats of the league won, but it stinks less, because we have, we are the upper hand.

They feel like they accomplished something but in reality they currently suck. We will eat them alive next time and they ll probably finish 9th or 10th in the East once Tampa gets going, there's also Philly. Perfect position for them, hope, most likely shattered in the end, mid 1st round pick, good.

They are pretty much in the position we want them to be - no success but also without the high pick.

So the way you feel makes it a rivalry?

When was the last time The NY Times investigated anything?

a win friday. as we should, and i forget all about the game last nite.

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

there was no interference with the goalie. Rask was out of his own crease when Chara pushed the player into him. Nobody ever went into the crease.

Go away dude

I hope the Habs miss the playoffs by 1 point by losing the last game of the season with a goal being called back and we can watch the replay of their souls being crushed.

Olé, Olé, Olé

As fun as that sounds, it'll never happen. Habs are one of the biggest cash cows for the NHL, they're not letting that happen.

No mention of the off-side or the coach's challenge on last night's late edition of SportsCentre on TSN. Kind of odd since TSN was actually broadcasting the game.

Watched the Jay and Dan hilites, thought for sure they would comment on it, never even showed it. lol

Can't stand those 2 goofs. Hey Jay and Dan - stop trying to be comedians because you're not funny.

Man first the team loses to these chumps. Then some loser on the highway driving like a jack ass with a Canadiens sticker on his pick up.

Legit have never seen a Canadiens sticker on anyones vehicle until then

NBC's Pierre McGuire joined Melnick in the Afternoon to recap the Canadiens' win over the Bruins.

Sounds good.

Series win against them in the 1st round would be even better.

Of course not, they've been manipulating the media since day 1.
When Lafleur was drunk and had an accident in the wee hours of the morning.
First thing the cop did was removing Lafleur and driving him to the Habs dr, while the car was towed almost immediately and story was kept under wrap for a long time.

All the time, maybe you should read it sometime. I do every day.
