Like many times this season, the Habs won even though they didn't play that well for long stretches. They had only 9 shots on net and Dobeš was excellent. Very exciting series. All 7 games decided by one goal, including 4 OT games.
Big win in OT again tonight. Looking good for Habs. Leading in series without any 5 on 5 goals from Suzuki line. Who would of thunk it? If top line gets hot they could go far.
I think tonight's performance will finally convince Jays brass to yank Hoffman from closer role. Thank goodness Varland saved the day. Varland will likely move to closer role for now. I don't even think Hoffmam deserves high leverage situations. Unlikely to have any market value at this point in...

If you played organized ball or even serious scrub games in the 60s, 70s and/or 80s there's a good chance you used one. Louisville Sluggers dominated the market. If a team bag contained 6 bats, at least 4 would have the H & B label on them.
Yes a bit strange but I suspect it could be more about the relationship between Roy and Darche and/or Roy and a few key players. Roy has a strong personality which can create unwanted sparks at times. Darche didn't hire Roy and DeBoer may have been his 1st choice as a replacement for Roy, so he...
The Habs have reached another level. They don't always have to play their best to win. They have enough talent and confidence to overcome setbacks and long stretches of games where they have been outplayed. It was good to hear MSL and several players acknowledge that after yesterday's win.
You're are right as far as that game is concerned.
I was commenting about the 6+ games I watched, including Canada's 4 games to date. Canada's fielding was not very good in the Panama game.
