Habs Week in Review
Sweet Mother of Pearl!
C’est ben tight eh ?
Not but one point separates the Habs and the sucky Leafs. All that is left to play is but two matches: Thursday against the Rangers and Saturday against the sucky Leafs.
The Leafs, they luck out by playing the lowly Islanders who, since losing their goaler can’t buy a win, and then on Saturday against Les Canadiens.
So all in all, it may very well come down to Saturday. One match takes it all. Already I’m on pins and needles.
The good news is the Habs are playing well. Very well. After being partially benched by Carbo on Saturday, Koivu showed once again why he is the Habs captain, scoring the Habs only two goals of the night against the Bruins. The Habs new young star goalie, Halak, did the rest.
This remember is the exact same team back in February and early March that couldn’t win. All the futzing and juggling of lines, and the screaming to Gainey to find the Habs a new goalie is now moot. No one is questioning Gainey now.. are they ?
This very same team, is winning, is showing confidence and is looking like they are destined for the playoffs.
Even if the weather isn’t quite showing it, it’s springtime in Montreal.
Bring on the playoffs.
