Captain's day at 40 Bay

EGJ, almost 14 weeks

For as much as the Habs have shown up in these playoffs, their opponents, many of them, haven't bothered. Ovechkin in Round One, an abysmal failure. And Malkin in the latter phase of Round Two, non-existent. Shame on Washington for sure. But double shame on Pittsburgh if it can't put up a better fight and take this series. Jaro Halak and the Canadiens may be riding something magical, even smoking it, but they're not invincible. What they are is a confident netminder backstopping a team that's bought into a system, and so totally beatable it's not funny. Really, the further this thing goes along the unfunnier it becomes. What it's going to take to conquer this Montreal roll is more than x's and o's, or even shear talent. It'll require passion, determination and urgency. Kind of like the stuff the Habs have been playing with the past month.

Fire with fire, man. How it's done. How it's won.

There's one more chance for the Penguins to find their heart and make it right. If not, it's going to be a long night in Pittsburgh. And to the dismay of many, an even longer night in Montreal.

Happy 3 months, Gracie Girl!

Could be perfect

Say what you will about the Jays' impressive 5-2 start, but it could've been even impressiver! They really should be 7-0. Both of those losses, Jason Frasor blow jobs, minus any sort of satisfaction. Look, BS's are going to happen. We know it. They know it. And they suck, hard. But so soon? While the gettin' is good? Hey, the more dubyas you compile today make that looming stretch of too few of them slightly more palatable.

Back on the horse tonight, maybe. With Downs or Gregg the 9th inning guy, definitely.

Big money

...few results.

Just for a second, wouldn't it be fitting if the bigshots running Canada's most profitable sports outfit could come down from their million dollar 'highs' -- just for a second -- to feel the same shame and embarrassment those who fill their pockets do. The money part is for them. That winning thing, for us. And we go without, again.

'Da Hook' tonight:

We'll lament the season ahead for TFC (another MLSE product) with Ian Clarke of Red Nation Online, plus Knights updates with Nick Wynja, Cancer survivor, fighter Theresa Carriere and Bryan Cameron of the OHL's top dog, Barrie Colts.
The fun starts at 8pm, am980.ca

The good, the bad and the beauty

The Good:

Theresa Carriere and Ian Clarke on Da Hook this Friday

The Bad:

Nazem Kadri's charging penalty late in game 3. Irresponsible is the best way to put it. Too bad it also put his team in a tough position. But if anyone can snap'em out of it, it's Naz. We'll see.

The Beauty:
