This is some pretty juvenile whining. I came into this series pretty impartial, but leaning towards rooting for the Habs...I'm 100% team walrus now.

Habs need to stop playing like entitled French Canadians and earn their own breaks...no equalization payments here.

What's with the player numbers bit from the Sens coach? Inside joke I'm missing?

Budaj was in tough just being thrown in net to start OT. That's part of sports and the bounce didn't go the Habs way. The deflection could have easily beaten Price if he stayed in the game.

He looked like he hurt something on the last shot of regulation. Went down oddly and got up quite gingerly.

Rigged. That's all I can say. 100 per cent RIGGED.
So the NHL has mandated that San Jose and Ottawa make it into the 2nd round of the playoffs? Strange. You would think if the NHL truly did rig their playoffs they would do it like the NBA and ensure that the top markets get through as the league would love to see a Habs/Bruins or Habs/Leafs series in the East and a Canucks/Blackhawks series in the West. Ottawa and San Jose are probably two of the teams the league would least want to see go on as far as television ratings go so it's simply asinine to belive that any of the playoffs is rigged.

What was Diaz (AKA Player 61) thinking putting out the chicken wing on that shot? Did he really think he would block the shot, as opposed to deflecting it past his own goalie? That guy is really lighting it up this series, he has all the hockey sense of a Canuck fan.

I will say, the chicken wing move brought back some fond memories of Reggie Lemelin.

Canadiens captain Brian Gionta is out for the playoffs with a torn bicep muscle.

Paul Mclean for Prime Minister. Love that 'stache and how he goes to war for his players. I thought when the Sens hired him last year he'd just be another stop over until they find the right coach. Boy was I wrong.

Sens=Canada's team

Common sense and reasoning is no match for crazy.

He is hands down the most entertaining coach in the league in the post game media scrums. And after taking his AHL team to the playoffs and playing such awesome mind games with the Canadiens that they implode, IMO he's the best outright coach in the league.

Wasn't the talk that teams shied away from hiring him in the past as in Detroit he was considered maybe just a good assistant and not head coach material? Looks like some teams missed out on a good one.

Unbelievable that can happen in a country such as Canada. Unbelievable that there was no discipline handed out to the principal. Quebec never ceases to amaze.

I like the habs, and would prefer they won over the sens, but that was not kicked in. The puck hit the skate prior to it turning towards the goal.

She should have gotten the limo to drive by the principals house while she stood in the sun roof throwing crotch chops

Damn, the Nordiques can't return soon enough. The Anti-Habs. The antidote. The accountability.

My favourite part:

"When Ottawa owner Eugene Melnyk heard Keila's story, he invited her and her family to sit in his personal suite for Tuesday's Game 4 and dispatched a limo to bring them to the arena."

I really like Melnyk. He did the same sort of thing for Heatley when they traded for him. Heatley could not drive because of the horrible Atlanta incident, so Melnyk had a town car take him from rink to home for every game.

The Nordique were the separatist team ... so it will be much more annoying.
