Montreal has at least four players on their bottom six who are 15-20 goal threats. That won them the game tonight and will win a few more.

Goals by Anderson, Bolduc, and Carrier. Just like the Habs drew it up.

Sign of improvement: Montreal has doubled the amount of shots it allows before the first goal against.

Not sweating tonight's game too much. How did Montreal's season begin last year? With a loss in Toronto. The result was rendered meaningless.

One of my thoughts leading into tomorrow: It's in extremely bad taste for any federal employee to book recreational time off Mon/Tue and/or Thu/Fri this week. I've noticed lighter traffic on my commute in Ottawa the last two days.

SENATOR: I have these text messages that put you in Saskatchewan watching the Roughriders. The very city that you claim to have never been in. You are under arrest for perjury. You are dead meat. WITNESS: (ruffling papers) actually I was seeing the Ottawa Rough Riders.

I'm picturing Kent Hughes scoffing at Columbus wanting an established player for Marchenko and thinking "Let some other idiot make that trade" then HERE COMES JOHN CHAYKA.

Maple Leafs acquire Marchenko from Blue Jackets for Knies, then extend him on six-year, $75M deal
The Toronto Maple Leafs are working on a trade to acquire forward Kirill Marchenko from the Columbus Blue Jackets, but the deal appears to hinge on whether Toronto can reach an extension with the wing...

If I'm Matthew Knies and this trade falls through I'm demanding one anyway. For observers, I think it's the funniest scenario. Losing him for lower value because your org can't keep its mouth shut. That would be a very Toronto thing to happen.

This will be the first year I don't go to the Ottawa Charge home opener. I may never see them live again until they have an independent owner. I do not want to send a message that I'm OK with the league ripping at the fabric of all its teams every offseason.

Just saw a an *Alberta government* ad on DAZN which used the phrase "Stand up for a sovereign Alberta within a united Canada" in regards to the upcoming referendum(s). Given the one question most people are fixated on, this seems insane.

It's nice having someone you can just lob it 40 yards to for the first time since... Randy Moss was a 49er, I guess? #FTTB

Sure, Thorpe drew attention to himself. But this Habs team has two brothers struggling the make the lineup who throw hands better than he does, so it's getting punched in the face for pretty much nothing.

"We're offering free transit in Ottawa this weekend." "How much is this free transit weekend?" "It's free." "And when is this weekend?" "It's this weekend." "And how much does it cost?" "Um, it's free." "I see. And when is it?" "It's this weekend." "And what are you charging for this free weekend?"

After decades(!) of Montreal backstopping in OT and waiting for a bounce, it's honestly difficult processing that the Habs are now the team everyone else fears.

It's a mindtrip going to an Alice Cooper show these days because most of the crowd goes nuts for his late 80s/90s stuff while fans primarily of his 70s work like me rock out like hell to "Under My Wheels" and a whole bunch of people don't even recognize it.

One thing we learned from the Habs-Leafs Centre Bell preseason game is Cole Caufield can score overtime goals. Who knew?
