GDT: Stralman argument

[E.L.]

Another grudge match in the sunshine state.

My parents are going to be at this one, in my Dad's words "Wearing my Leafs shirt and cheering for the Lightning. May fight some frenchies as a result, harkens back to my childhood(he grew up in Buckingham and some other smaller Quebec towns), never lost one."

He doesn't like the Habs. Probably likes the Leafs even less.

Mom grew up a Habs fan in Whitby because she liked Dryden and wanted to spite her Dad, a huge Leafs fan.

Beaulieu out tonight with the flu. How convenient ...

Naw, Bosc's dad punched him.

[E.L.]

Pitiful.

Slowly crawling back in it. PAP may have punched his ticket to benchville tonight. Therrien switched him for Weise pretty quickly.

Geez, I knew the Habs were desperate to get points on the board, but...

Saw the Habs and Lighting last night. What a ton of fun. Habs fans everywhere but the Lightning fans, me included, drowned them out mostly. I got some ribbing over the leafs tshirt I had on. Had some fun waiting in line at a restaurant with some french Senators fans from Ottawa. They said they felt sorry for me and tried to convert me. Told them I hated the Habs only a slight bit more than the Sens. When your Mom went to the front to sign in for a table I yelled for her to sign at the top, one guy yips back that it would be the only way anyone in a leafs shirt would be near the top of anything. I went to the can and when in there one guy asked me if I'd heard that the leafs had signed two new Russians, Summerov and Teeov. I told him that was old news because that had happened way back in November. Great fun.

Seeing people at the rink in cargo shots and sandals will never look right.
