Habs posted quite the exciting finish in their game against Vegas, while at the same time spoiling Pacioretty's first game at the BC as a Knight.

Plus they've been showing some serious firepower so far this year. Both the Habs and Oilers have played 17 games, with the Habs having scored 58 goals vs. 46 for the Oilers.

The Oil is being put on notice:

However, McDavid won't be as concerned this time round ...

Pleky was forced out to pasture and is left twiddling his thumbs and performing finger acrobatics these days. He's become a shadow of his former self, which involved being a shadow.

There was this little bit of good news:




Now, we still don't know who will be in nets for the Habs tonight. Maybe Carey Price needs a longer break. Jeez Carey, you could smile a little more ...

Carey, you used to be a lot more fun when you did things like this:

BLOG: Oilers lines get shuffled



Meantime, we'd be remiss not to sprinkle a little special sauce on the whole extravaganza. Tatar with 15 points in 17 games, is lighting a fire all his own.

However, the secret is now out -- all thanks to this tell-all clip:

None of their defencemen are exceptional passers. 4-1, Habs.

 

[Fightman]

Nice GDT ! I think it's gonna be a "no goalies showing up" contest..... 6-5 for the habs.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

Todd McLallen is still coach so we have a chance.

 

[Tyson]

I am never too Optimistic for this annual road swing

 

[Lshap]

As a hockey fan I wouldn't mind seeing the McDavid show, but it would be nice to see our woeful defence smarten up in our zone. Sharper passes, better coverage, fewer dumb turnovers -- I'll have a side-order of boring & effective with my uptempo, thanks.

Nice GDT ! I think it's gonna be a "no goalies showing up" contest..... 6-5 for the habs.

Thanks! I had it almost finished when the screen froze and the whole thing disappeared causing me to have to start it over from scratch.

I too think a high scoring game is a high probability.

Taaaataaaaaar!

 

[sandviper]

Unless they find a way to have McDavid play all 60 minutes, we should have this one.

 

[Cobra Commander]

Go Habs Go!

 

[Belial]

Here's an HD version!

The last one, when he steps into the camera angle gets me every time!

 

[PaulD]

Oilers losers of 4 straight . So are they due? Big night for Connor coming up. Price also due for a big game.

 

[Runner77]

Captain approved version!

 

[Guilliam]

So we're gonna play McJesus with bot Benn and Alzner in the lineup?

 

[Censored Toad]

Great GDT Runner !!
As always, you are on point with good funnys/ memes. I am a fan and approve 1000%

I feel like we have been scoring too much lately, and I feel since we struggle against western teams we will get beat 4-1 and our scoring will dry up for at least one game.

I hope I am wrong!

 

[Belial]

 

[Runner77]

Wait, there's more!

 

[ArtPeur]

McJesus will have fun with our dmen, hopefully Alzner sits this one

 

[Habs Icing]

I am never too Optics for this annual road swing

Spell check.......lol......works like a charm and sometimes it doesn't.

 

[Belial]

@Runner77

Doesn't seem like Price is really bothered by his play!

 

[Runner77]

Here is the original clip that gave rise to all the memes:



Tatar's face soon after he scores the winning goal against Vegas and is mobbed behind the net, is hilarious.

Check out Tatar's expression from the 0:23 mark of the video:

Here's a still of it:
