The set is also pretty impressive, seems like he's just walking on a giant LED display.
 

Montreal wins second game of the season

at 22:34 - 3rd, October 2009
what a goal. gionta scores the winner in OT. if i can find the goal online i'll post it.
two of my favorite guys are now out. metropolit out, o'byrne out. i wonder for how long.
first period was a mess for the canadiens, second better. third not as good but not as bad as first. over time was good, went both ways.

price was amazing yet again. if he doesn't get hurt i think he'll do great this season and with markov out, he'll need to play great. i did't realize how much of an impact markov made but without him in the lineup. the canadiens just can't seem to get the puck out of the zone without him telling them what to do.

highlights of the game:
price making 34 saves
hal gill going after someone who was punching gionta in a scrum in front of the buffalo net. made me so happy to see this. montreal rushed the buffalo net, miller stops the puck and holds on to it. group gathers in front of the net and some rough housing starts. gionta (or gomez, can't remember) starts getting some lefts to the head from a buffalo player but all the canadiens forwards are in the scrum and tied up. out of no where, gill comes from the blue line, drops the gloves and goes straight to help gionta. gets to the group and pulls the guy off gionta, like literally pulls him off gionta. was so happy to see that.
and the final goal by gionta.

an ok game with a great finish.

any idea who will replace metro and o'byrne?

Gionta = God.

Moen = two goals too! (You know I love Kostopoulos, but I always said Moen was an upgraded TK).

It was Gomez being punched. Actually he was being held by one guy and punched by another. See, last year, he accidentally collided with Miller behind the net when Miller went to play the puck (which he's never been very good at) and Miller sprained his ankle because of it, right when the Slugs were on the bubble to make/not make the playoffs. Lindy Ruff, of course, called it a deliberate attempt to injure and sabotage their chances but everyone knows Lindy Ruff is an idiot when he's trying to find reasons why the Buffaslugs are always on the bubble. (Not to mention Gomez and Miller are good friends, and was standing over him trying to help stop the play so he could get attended to). Gill and Gorges totally came in late 'cause I don't think the realized what was happening. I honestly couldn't believe what I was seeing. I mean really? You need two people to punch Gomez?! SAKU KOIVU FOUGHT HIM! (Sort of).

I don't know why but the game was rather chippy. Usually Habs/Slugs games are like Habs/Pens games in that it's all hockey and less "truculence" but whatever.

Ruined by Bob Cole! RDS was better, mostly 'cause I think Barney Rubble up there plotzed.
