MY TRIBUTE TO HABS GOALIE JAROSLAV HALAK

He was forgotten. He was a disrespected. He was branded a career backup... and now he is the best goaltender in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Jaroslav Halak is the primary reason the Montreal Canadians are in the second round of the playoffs tied at two games a piece with the low class Penguins. Jaro has always been the unsung hero of the Montreal Canadians ever since his first appearance in a Habs uniform. We made the playoffs because of him and we have a chance to go all the way solely due to him. I'm going to make a prediction: If the Habs beat the Penguins they are going all the way. It just seems like one of those years when this team has no quit. Even in the face of repulsive reffing this team continues to find ways to win.

A side note. What is happening with the blown calls in this series? Have the refs decided that the Pens absolutely need to advance in order to guarantee ratings? Crosby broke two opponents sticks tonight and there was no call. The Habs Hall Gill broke a stick and was instantly called. Different rules for the NHL's biggest crybaby. Sid the Kid needs to grow up because Canada is quickly losing respect for it's favorite Olympian.

Back to the Fortress known as Halak, I just want to say that you made my day sir. Now let's go all the way.

GO HABS GO!

A TASTE OF WHAT"S TO COME.

Something we've been working on. I have no qualms when I say it's my personal favorite project. More to tell as it comes to fruition.

IRON MAN BODY ARMOR SLURPEE!

The Iron Man Body Armor Slurpee totally rocks. It actually has a straw coming out of it's back. I find this kind of stuff so cool. They should make a Batman Slurpee when the inevitable Batman film is released.

SYDNEY CROSBY AKA THE CRYBABY

Smells like Baby drool.

This essay submitted by Mike G on SPORTSFANLIVE.COM is so hilarious that I had to reprint it on my blog. It's the perfect description of the Great Sydney's immature persona.

Enjoy,

Your Friend,

Sidney Crosby's Late Night Ritual:

After riding his exercise bike for 8 minutes and 7 seconds, Sidney proceeds to the kitchen. He drinks a Gatorade, puts on his Penguins pajama's, and calls for his stepfather. Mario walks him to his room, tucks him in, and they begin having their usual conversation...

-"So Sid, what did you think of yesterday's game?", says Mario.

-"Well dad, I was mad. I really was. Frustration got the best of me and I broke my stick. I'm going to try and sleep, but it's going to be hard. I dissapointed alot of my TimBits friends.", said Sid.

-"Son, the game of hockey can be like that. In your case, you are unique in that the league loves you. So you can do whatever you want, and nothing will happen. So don't worry about your stick, well get you a new one and your TimBits friends will still love you.", replied Lemieux.

-"Thanks boss, I always know I can count on you. Even when people make fun of my red lips, you always cheer me up."-- says Sid.

-"Well, were here for you kid. We want you to succeed, that's why you've been living with us and not Evgeni or Jordan. You are the chosen one, but pretty soon it will be time for you to make certain choices. Like what car to buy, how many powerplays you want per game, and maybe even... (says while faking a cough)... which house to buy.", Mario replies.

-"Mario, I just want to live with you and your family. I feel like I'm back home in Nova Scotia here, and the Mellon arena is my backyard rink. I can't ever see myself living alone, I would probably cry like I do when I talk to Mr. Bettman on the telephone.", said Crosby while fighting tears.

-"Alright son, we can talk in the future about that. What's important now is that you get a good night's rest, and prepare yourself for Tuesday's game. I just spoke to Gary, and were going to get 7 powerplays and the Habs only 2, so we have to take advantage of that.", whispers Mario.

-"Thanks Super Mario, I'll try sleep for 8 hours and 7 minutes now. And I'm going to dream about how to cope with all the booing the Montrealers will do to me on Tuesday. I hope it won't be too much, I really liked that team and don't want the fans to hurt my feelings.", says Sid.

Lemieux rolls his eyes, quickly shuts off the lights and closes the door. "I'll wake you up at 8:07".....
