Playoff season

A surprising campaign for the Canadiens this year, most pundits picked them to miss the playoffs. Instead, they win the Eastern Conference. Alex Kovalev, who I would have given away for a bag of pucks at the start of the season was the big difference. He decided to play hockey instead of piss and moan this year. He showed the way for the kids (especially the Kostitsyn boys) and the rest is history.

I'm still not expecting a ton from this group, being as young as they are. I also will not be surprised if they do well as they are playing like a confident group.

Got a decent but muddy ride in today, felt pretty good, I was climbing very well. I need to visit a shop and get them to torque my shoes properly. I've never had carbon soles and don't want to screw them up.

I bet they go pretty far. Gainey sees Price as the new Roy, I think.

I'm waiting for Price to get a shutout then start winking at opposition players.
