Habs For Breakfast - Last Shot Wins

[Habsfan84]

An emotional roller coaster was what Game 6 indeed was!

Koivu returns, plays the kind of inspired game we all love him for. Higgins steps up. Plekanec nets a big goal. The Canadiens carry a 2-1 margin confidently into the third.

Then, all hell breaks loose.

The Bruins system of sending two forecheckers deep in killing the Canadiens late in the game. What Claude Julien retained from caoching the Habs during three seasons is obviously helping him gain a measure of revenge against the team who let him go.

The table is now set for Game 7, and it just might come down to the last shot wins!

As long as the game doesn't head to OT. I don't feel the old ticker can handle it at this point.

Heartbreak In Beantown - Gazette

"An alleged mismatch between the No. 1-seeded Canadiens and the No. 8 Boston Bruins returns to Montreal tomorrow for a seventh and deciding game, after the Bruins defeated the Canadiens 5-4 last night in a stunning Game 6 of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal playoff." - Gazette

Koivu Happy To Be Back - Gazette

"This would have been a remarkable comeback for most players. Not for Saku Koivu. Not for the Canadiens captain who six years ago recovered from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma to not merely resume his career, but to score 10 points in 12 postseason games and play some of the finest hockey of his life." - Dave Stubbs

"I Don't ( Expletive ) Believe It" - Gazette

"First came the high fives, then the expletives, as Habs fans at home watched their team lose a hard-fought Game 6 against Boston last night. "I don't (expletive) believe it," said Joel Beaulé, 34, who remained calm throughout the third period while cheers and chanting gave way to sweaty brows and nervous faces at the Peel Pub on Peel St." - Amy Luft
