How ‘Bout That Hab-Ranger Game?

 I’m sure most of you have heard, that the Canadiens completed an amazing comeback last night, the biggest in their storied history.

Myself, I am not that impressed. Is this because I hate the Habs with every ounce of my being? Perhaps. Or is it because when a team comes back from a 5 goal deficit, shouldn’t some of the credit go to the other team?

I mean really, let’s talk about the Rangers, rather than the Habs for a second. I see this as the Rangers losing, not the Canadiens winning. Excuse me, but if you are down 5 goals in a hockey game,  there is no reason as to why you should ever have a shot at winning the game. The Rangers blew it, and they blew it hard.

The Canadiens did not win this game, the Rangers lost it. They should be embarassed. If I was a Ranger fan, I would be wearing a paper bag over my head. That is brutal. If I was to make a chart of NHL embarassment right now, the only think that would place above this, would be Patrik Stefan last season against the Oilers. Take a look, thats how embarassed I would be if I were Pries…. I mean, a Ranger fan.

I especially like the part 53 seconds in, listen to the announcer.
