HABS WIN, LEAFS LOOSE, LIFE IS GREAT!

Well the refs managed to give the Maple turds a point with yet another goal which should not have counted against us, but the end result helps ease the pain of a busted spleen resulting from over-rage.

Is it just me or does Carey Price seems to excel and almost enjoy shoot-outs. Maybe after going over a dozen rounds in the shoot-out against the US at the Junior Worlds has conditioned Priceberg to excel even more in such a pressure packed situation.

It was a good call by the coach to promote Guillaume to the first line. They lit up the red light, had various close chances, points and drew penalties. Hopefully they keep gelling

And finally I have to mention Kovalev. When this guy gets angry, and gets into a fight for the puck along the board, doesn't he remind you of the second coming of Werewolf? He's like a beast, and when he does get the puck along the boards, the opposition is more likely to get hit by a meteor than they are to strip the puck away. I almost look forward to him getting cross-checked or hit in the face with a glove/stick. When I see that I know it's time for the Kovalev show, and last night was no different. What ever he did during the summer to "change his mental attitude" is paying dividends, and I his play only gets better from here.
