Pre-Game Talk: Game 4 - It's not over till it's over...

Praying we sweep tomorrow.

Go HABS Go, from a SENS Fan!

Matt Carle was part of that 2010 Flyers team that came back from 0-3 to beat the Bruins. I expect a battle tomorrow.

As much as I'd like to hate the Lightning right now, I feel like they're a likable bunch. Young team that reminds me of what we were just a year ago, and still pretty much are to a lesser extent. Plus Cooper is a super likable coach as well. Heh.

Yzerman and Cooper seen having a lengthy chat with series supervisor Kay Whitmore at rink today.

I hope they had time to meet with their defensive coordinator afterwards

Maybe Cooper should use his time to come up with better coaching strategies.

Nah. Cooper would rather keep his image as a "players' coach" and pretend he's a journalist during a Stamkos scrum... which is exactly what he did today:

"Hey, people, look, my team's down 3 - 0 but I'm cool, no worries, I got this"

You're being outcoached by Bibi Therrien, FFS

 

[David Suzuki]

FWIW Therrien has clearly learned from the mistakes of last year. He is a good coach for sure.

The fat lady sang last night. It's over.

Matt Carle was part of that 2010 Flyers team that came back from 0-3 to beat the Bruins. I expect a battle tomorrow.

And yet he might have played the worst defense of the entire Tampa team so far this series. Irony. Maybe he's just spotting us a lead before shutting out down?

And if the situation was reversed, many of you would be livid if Montreal didn't talk to the refs, the series supervisor, or whomever after that.

So, this thread, along with many others creates some good humour in the hypocrisy around here.

I admit, I'd be more than livid. The ref made a great call in the heat of the moment on a rule not many knew about. Apparently, Carey may have know this rule since this isn't the first time he's done what he did. I probably would have flipped the table through the wall when the call was made if the roles were flipped.

And yet, I still don't care or feel bad for the Lightning or their fans. They're on the receiving end. In addition, you don't really end up making friends with other teams fans, even more so after the series is over.

I still remember those series vs Carolina('02 & '06) and Tampa Bay ('04). I've had a part of me that still hates them ever since. Beating the Lightning would pay one of the debts.

Exactly. Koivu nearly had his eye carved out up 2-0 against Carolina. Team never recovered. Did Carolina care?

A week (+\-) off gives the guys some time to heal any booboo's and work on the powerplay some more. Helps get Galy and Moen back and anyway, Boston vs. Detroit started late! It would be a good thing... and the first sweep by the Habs since Buffalo in 1993!

Palat will have time for his hobby soon...

 

[Price My Man Crush]

Bahahaha, ****ing great buddy.

Don't count your chickens yet...

If he actually breakdances, I've gained more respect for Palat. Never tried breakdancing (or any dancing) myself, but I love hiphop/rap and some of my buds are into breakdancing.
