Today is Gally's 22nd birthday.. 2 goals from Gally and a big Habs win tonight would be a great birthday gift..
How is it that a player can get the flu and then be ready for an extremely important playoff game the next day (or say 48 hrs later...even 72 if you stretch it to last game)? I mean, if it's the actual flu (as was reported for Eller), you just can't have your energy back at even 50% in that time span. I know they're professional athletes, but that's just nuts. Hope Bourque is 100% and not being forced to play just cuz he's been a beast so far. Much better to rest up for next game. In many ways, it's worse than a small injury.

Thrilled to say the least. I've had butterflies in my stomach all afternoon. This game won't be a letdown that's for sure. Even at 1-1 there is an urgency to show we're still in this series and won't back down.
I'd like to see MT get Max or Vanek some double shifts with Briere on the 4th line. Specifically, if their 4th line is on and Chara is on the bench. Here's to hoping Murray helps not hurts.
I hope Julien keeps whinning and complaining about the refs. Hopefully they'll have the same reaction as they do with PK and not give them the beenfit of any calls.
Also, i said before the series began, I really hope Montreal does everything they can to embellish, dive, taunt and tease the Bruins. It would be such a lovely self fulfilling prophecy if that's how we win the series. Julien might actually go into full on seizures if that were to happen.
Go Habs Go!!
Also, clowns are creepy as **** but midget clowns are the spawn of the devil... Just sayin'
