I cheered for Boston because of the Iginla ties and when they were facing the Canucks. But not anymore.

Sometimes things just happen....being from Mtl , when I was 9, my dad took me to a game at the old forum where the habs played the Atlanta Flames and as soon as i saw this Tom Lysiak guy, his style of play, he won me over and the rest is history as after that I always wore # 12 in hockey and followed the Flames and of course i was more than happy when they moved to CGY....The habs? Well I only get exited when they beat all the other western teams especially the one in B.C and that other team in Alberta...anyways, Flames with a 4-2 win with all their goals coming after the 10 minute mark of the third...
