I don't know yet for Halak or Price for Saturday. I think Carbonneau will just announce it to the media a couple hours before the game like he did yesterday.

Colorado is now out. Dallas is very likely to join the Wings in the conference final.
In the meantime, if the Habs lose this weekend, I'll turn my attention to the IIHF World Championship that starts today with Canada battling Slovenia.

The golf season has started for the Habs... Too bad... Still, nobody was thinking to see them in the playoffs (not even in first place of the conference for that matter), so I think it was a good season even if they didn't even go to the final. Go Pens Go! Oh, and for the IIHF WC: Go Canada Go! ;D

Nothing to add on that. They made a good season and I'm very optimist for next year. Ours Habs will bring back in Montréal a Stanley Cup for their 100 years anniversary. ;D

Remember 1993? It was the 100th anniversary of the Cup, and the NHL All-Star Game took place in MTL, and the Habs won. 2009, 100th anniversary of the club and the NHL All-Star Game will be back in the city. Is that a sign?

It's written in the sky. Go Habs Go!!!!
Others teams in the playoff now;
Is Pittsburg will win their 4th match this afternoon? Is San Jose will beat Dallas tonight or Dallas will not give them the victory so easily?

No internet to commiserate with you two when it happened, but was not happy about the result on Saturday night.
I hope you're right about next season - sounds great!
Meanwhile, a quite ridiculous - but hugely entertaining - game between Dallas and San Jose to complete that series: into the fourth overtime. The NHL show couldn't show it all - waaaaay too long - but the goalies were both complete heroes! Awesome stuff! Okay, the hockey wasn't that amazing - they were all practically asleep by the end - but a more competitive match you'd wait a long time to see!
Here's hoping Dallas wake up in time to take on the Red Wings!
Now for some reason, I'm quite drawn to supporting the Flyers against the Penguins, despite their defeat of the Habs. Could it be that Pittsburgh have too starry a team for my tastes? I dunno....

And they are now leading 3-0. Hmmm, and I had picked Dallas to win this series... Pittsburgh is playing tonight. Go Pens Go!

Hmm....and I picked Dallas and Philadelphia, though this is really because in the absence of any team that I firmly support (Montréal, any Canadian, Chicago, Washington, Colorado, Buffalo-ish) I have to support the underdog.
Anyway, not looking too good so far. The second Flyers/Penguins game was rather entertaining though - really looked like Philadelphia might upset Pittsburgh until the last ten minutes.
To be honest, a Detroit/Pittsburgh match-up is a dream final series second only to Montréal/Detroit, but I have to root for the less likely team! So:
Go, Flyers, Go!
And Dallas, I'm sure you can, like, er, win four on the trot against, um....Detroit....

Red Wings won Monday and lost Wednesday. Datsyuk got his Hat Trick on Monday though. Game 5 (Red Wings currently 3-1) against Dallas tomorrow night.
