3-0 Vancouver after 1 period. Habs will need a miracle to continue their streak. Miller has made some fantastic saves and will be hard to beat.

Keep your fingers crossed for your beloved Habs.

Nailed it!

OK, for that last time, I am not a Habs fan. The last Habs player I cheered for was Koivu, as he joined just as I came to Ottawa. I have not been living in Ottawa longer than I lived in Montreal. Saying "they'll need a miracle" when the score is 3-0 after one is just a statement of fact.

P.S. Chasing all-time NHL records is something noteworthy, even if the chase is not being done by your team.

Perhaps. In this case the chase just happens to be undertaken by your team. The Habs.

A chase that came to a screeching halt last night. Chin up, old friend, your dear Habs should be ok.

Had a lot worse happen to me this week than a lost hockey game.  Lay off, will you?

Eberle (shoulder) placed on LTIR; Draisaitl called up.

Habs lose, it's a good night.

Habs back down to earth? Huge come back for the Oilers (down 3-0 after one). Draisailt with the game winner -- he was just called up from the AHL, where he was struggling, apparently. McDavid with 2 assists is tied for 4th in the league for total points, he's now over a PPG.

If this team figures out how to win they could do a little damage. Imagine if they still had Petry. And a goalie.

Dallas just 2 points back of the Habs with a game in hand. Who'd-a-thunk it.
