It's so good to see so much offence from our top players in game 1! Slaf, Demidov, Caufield, Suzuki, all on fire! By times it looked like what they gave us in many regular season games. Add some Danault spice into the mix and there you go, 6-2 win in the first game of the Eastern Conference final.

Andersen was supposed to be on a cloud. I guess he was, so far. But he didn't look like a god at all last night.

We'll see on the long term if it helps them, but the whopping 12 days break certainly did not help the Canes last night. Habs are on a mission.

But......these damn goals against in the first minute, i'm so sick of it. Again last night, after 30 seconds......

I cant imagine Rod Brind’Amour’s speech between the first and second period. Besides their quick first goal, the Canes didnt show up at all in the first 20 minutes.

The Canes will be back strong and tough for game #2! We should see a completely different team saturday night. Looking forward to it, we will have another amazing series!

The Hurricane warning has been sounded in Lenovo Center. We will see if the storm has any strength.

I heard Martin St. Louis interviewed between periods and this guy speaks excellent English. His accent is 99% imperceptible. This is a guy who was born and grew up in Laval. I do understand that he went to college in Vermont and lived in my home state of Connecticut for many years (having married an American woman from CT), but he really does well with the English language. Better than many other French Canadian players who have played in the U.S. If I didn't know who he was and ran into him in a bar, I wouldn't know he was from Canada. I hear CT, Anglo-English coming out of his mouth.

We got Hurricanned last night. This is their style. Like a bee hive, they move in group and do not give you a second to rest or think about your next move. But it stil ended in OT.

The follow-up games will be interesting. May the Bell Centre be a place of success in this series, we need it.

Still trying to understand why Kapanen’s line was on the ice in OT!

Getting outshot 26-12 is not really what you want. I don't understand why Montreal has been getting severely outshot in these playoffs and why they only put 12 shots on Freddy Anderson, who is not a great goalie.

Winning opportunistically is great, but I think it has a shelf life. In Montreal they need to generate more shots on goal and take 2 games.
