Round 1, Game 1: Boston @ Montreal | Apr. 10 2008 | Final: 4-1 Habs

[Guest CanadianMike]

A Habs PLAYOFF game day thread. Seems like forever. I am so happy I could cry.

Hoping the Habs go into this calm and ready (not like all of us here freaking out that this will be easy for the Habs).

Can we have a more exciting team to watch? I don't think so. This is going to be fun!! One game at a time...I want to party when this series is over and get ready for round 2. Let's do it boys.

Price...it's your time to shine buddy.

GO HABS GO!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited/nervous about the playoffs this year. Last time we were in it was kindof a "meh, if they make it past the first round that'd be huge." However this year, there's all this talk of the Cup and with us finishing first, it's definately a big confidence booster, so I'm pretty nervous.

However, tomorrow night's game will be a great one. Can't wait to watch!

GO HABS GO

Someone hooked-up some new-fangled machine to Chara's brain last night and recorded this dream (nightmare?) he had. It got posted to YouTube.

Have a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5erhY_xNSk

Welcome to the forum, home of the greatest and craziest fans in the world! While your here perhaps you could recommend some players from the Bruins who would like to caddy for Mats Sundin, because they will be available next week!

The rare 2 for 1 zinger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MOUHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Guest Bruin Fan 4]

Welcome to the forum as well.

To Freddy's post: I feel that Chara will look good in white overalls caddying for Sundin.

[Guest hablover]

You know, Chara probably would have a really good vantage point of the green as Sundin's preparing his approach. That extra height could make all the difference in a birdie or a boogey.

uhhh welcome I guess. :Phaha GO KOVY!!!!I wish I was going to the game and I hope the CHARA SUCKS chants continue.

I really see no reason for them to stop

[Guest Ellie]

I am very excited for the playoffs to start tomorrow! I think we have an amazing team this year, and we have the possibility of going really far (maybe even the cup ). But at the same time I am nervous because IMO this first game is going to be important. It will be fun to see how all of our young guys fare in their first playoff series . GO Habs GO!

[Guest olddude]

Nice GDT, is there any way you could add "EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS" to the Habs name?

This should be a win for us, they are the same teams that played all year and as long as we play well the results should be the same. From all the interviews I've seen and articles I've read, the boys are pumped and I have no doubt they will come out flying. Remember, Kovy kicks it up a notch in the playoffs and we're starting to get healthy again.

GO HABS GO

P.S. VegasRick, get your dancing bananas ready

[Guest bigsby]

Personnellement, je pense que ca va être une série difficile... sa recommence à zéro et les bruins ont soif de revanche, moi je dirais que le premier match sera déterminant.

et le premier but. the nerves will be flying on both sides. let's hope the habs score early and often

I want to hear the CBC announcers finally say: "now this is hockey town"I've heard them say enough that Toronto is hockey crazy but i've been to games in toronto and montreal, and montreal is twice or three times as loud as toronto, its not even close!I want them to finally admit that montreal fans are the best, craziest, and most passionate!I can't wait to hear how the building roars!

[Guest Dominator27]

hello members of the canadiens fan forum. I am new here and i thought it would be a good idea to post my first post on this thread.

Anyways...

I voted they would win because we've been owning the b's all year. I also expect them to win in 5. And i want to be able to annoy one of my friends who's a hardcore bruins fan all spring.
