Top Six Minutes

Top Six Minutes: "A few minutes past Midnight" edition

Hello and Welcome to the Top Six Minutes.

I don’t know about you but doesn’t Boston feel like a ghost story right now? It’s a rivalry and what a rivalry it has been so far
Rivalry? Shouldn’t this be a Wednesday night then?
This is my first opportunity to say "I told you so" in regards to a certain player in the Canadiens... /

First Period

First TSM of the season, I feel rusty. Next season I need to make sure you get a preseason game to warm up with.
Gallagher seems rusty too, damn that high stick.
Max and Pleks on the boxplay, is a great act.
Doesn’t matter - had Price!
See above!
Boston commentary: "Price was a little to good!" - Boston always a bit behind in the news.
Emelin with the best ‘skater’ play of the first period.
and Desharnais works incredibly hard and gets a Boston player sent to the box./

Second period:

IN, or NOT? - NOT!
PowerKill™ from the last years makes a return...
Pastrnak with a sweet dangle. (Heresy, I know!)
SCRUM!
Defensive awareness by L’Arttiste, probably saved a goal there!
Gallagher with a rapid shot, 1-0 good guys!
Emelin with his best Alexander Karelin impression. The Crane from Novosibirsk is an old favourite of mine, also nicknames was better before.
PowerKill™...
I hate the commercials the commentators has to read out while on air... (yeah, its that kind of game)
Radulov with sweet moves before setting up a nice finish and goal by Phillip Danault. 2-0!/

Third Period

I remind you all; Liam Neeson is around here somewhere...
Damn!
Puck Out from Emelin, no need to make this game that interesting.
Usian Bolt, I mean Paul Byron, takes the puck to the end zone for a shorthanded goal.
Ryan Spooner brings the game in close again... 3-2 good guys.
The General in action, bringing down a bear after the whistle.
This defence from Montreal makes me think of Baghdad Bob...
Scory Mitchell makes it 4-2, and gets injured on the play. The Boston commentary is not biases at all for the two minute minor being given.
On to the PowerKill™...
Radulov gets an embellishment penalty still 5-on-4.
Empty net with almost three minutes to go!
Marchand goes straight into Price (HORROR!!!)
Weber to the box for something.
And then Petry joins
But Habs escape unscathed, and take a 4-2 win!/
