Keep calm and (Carey) on...

Some listener on CJAD called in this morning to say one word to sum up last night's hockey game:
Refund.
I myself, have one word to say to that radio listener: 
Genius. 
Nos Glorieux Canadiens de Montreal probably played one of the most discouraging hockey games I've ever seen. Basically, the Canadiens had 19 shots on goal during the whole hockey game, they didn't show up in the first 2 periods, and they lost against the the last place team in the league. 
Regardless of the fact that the Habs were able to squeak in the game tier within less than 2 minutes remaining in the third, leading to a scoreless overtime period, followed by a shootout loss, this shootout loss has absolutely nothing to do with the goalie. Carey Price is upset, big time. Have to admit, Price always plays a solid 60 minutes of hockey, and it must be ever so frustrating to see your team play like they did in return. 
The team had a meeting today, so hopefully we'll witness a more motivated and inspiring hockey team tomorrow night against the Vancouver Canucks.
Although, playing along with Montreal's system, they seem to be extremely well prepared for hockey teams with better stats, so this sounds promising.
Puck drops Thursday at 7:30ish.
