The Good, The Bad, The Ugly - Habs stall Jets
Oh well. Jets fans will always have the Avco Cup. And Teemu Selanne at his best. Consensus Clint says it was an impressive win by the Canadiens to spoil the biggest Canadian hockey love-in since Sidney Crosby scored the OT winner at the Olympics in Vancouver.

Montreal - Oct. 10, 2011 - Oh well. Jets fans will always have the Avco Cup. And Teemu Selanne at his best.

THE GOOD

  • Thomas Plekanic was dominant - 3 points +3 and 57% on face offs.

  • Power Play scored. PK unit was perfect.

  • Yannick Weber might have had his best game as a Hab.

  • Newcomers Raphael Diaz & Alexei Yemelin did not look out of place.

  • Andrea Engqvist won 67% of his face offs.

  • No passengers on a night when Habs were mostly two men short.

  • If Carey Price was any cooler in goal he'd be Johnny Depp.

  • Habs swarmed Mark Stuart after he delivered a (perfectly legal) a bone rattling check to Brian Gionta.

    THE BAD

  • Erik Cole got less ice time than Mathieu Darche & David Desharnais. Again.

  • Habs were out hit 26 - 7.

  • Scott Gomez is on pace to score 0 points this season.

    THE UGLY

  • Mike Cammalleri sliced above the knee by Yannick Weber's skate.

  • Shouldn't those cut resistant socks be made mandatory for Habs?

  • Don Cherry and his Queen.

    Consensus Clint says it was an impressive win by the Canadiens to spoil the biggest Canadian hockey love-in since Sidney Crosby scored the OT winner at the Olympics in Vancouver.
