All the pundits will say that the pressure is on TBay and the habs have nothing to lose. I've never really bought that. Nobody wants their season to end.
I do buy the fox/rabbit "fighting for your life or your supper" argument though.
Tbay probably won't want this as much. They have some wiggle room. It's human nature. I hope it plays out that way.

I'm thinking we'll probably see a different Tampa team on Saturday ... they're a proud bunch, too ... that said, though, with the exception of Game 2 the Habs have been firing on all cylinders ... I think the right mindset is there and after listening to Subban last night, I can't see the Habs coming out flat for Game 5 ... one shift at a time, one period at a time and one game at a time ... Cheers.

I saw this posted on a site and couldn't believe it... so much for allowing fans to wear their colours, because as Bettman said "Frankly, it's all about the fans" bullSaperlipopette

Ottawa was mocked for doing it; so too should the Bolts.

coupla years ago they were begging for anyone to come in, didn't care about the jersey. I had to question the Lightning fans engagement after not hearing any boos for Prust in games 3 and 4. Were the fans in attendance not watching game 2, or did they just randomly wander into the arena thinking they were going to a boat or gun show, or something. At any rate, stoked that we're going to game 5. Hope the Habs can get a couple early and keep the crowd going, and keep the seeds of doubt growing in Bishop's mind.

I posted something in another post game thread a couple of days ago about a fan being arrested at the game for carrying a gun. I guess a gun is OK but a Habs jersey ...
I see if I can find it & post it here.

Bringing it back home to a raucous home barn is as good as they could have asked for last night. Time to keep that big and crazy crowd into things until that final whistle.
One shift at a time, and the results will look after themselves!!
So nice to have Saturday night Habs hockey in May.

TSN saying Beau returning to line up tonight. That would be a mistake. Beaus a good player but Peteryn has been playing well and we should stick with the winning lineup. No room for any rustiness on Beau's part.

No room for any rustiness on Beau's part. I'd feel a bit more comfortable if Beau were inserted earlier in the series but the club has been playing very well without him ... Pateryn is physical and very reliable ... heard Pat Hickey on "The Ultimate Hockey Show" 1310News Web Radio say that, it's possible that Therrien is looking for a bit more offense by inserting Beau ... he did the same thing last year against Boston and it didn't hurt the club ... having said that, I agree with you in that Pateryn has played extremely well ... I wouldn't have made the move, but I'm not the coach ... Cheers.

Could be the LD, RD thing and we know Berg likes that. Playing Beau allows Gilbert to move back to his natural side.

I would. .. beau moved the puck better and makes a smarter outlet pass. I would like markov subban petry pateryn emelin beau Each pairing has a puck mover and some jam but there is no way 2 rookies play ahead of gilbert. I hope mb can sign petry

Not sure why PK keeps saying that opposing goaltenders have been lucky. I mean, we know Bishop has been, but why say that to the media?

Was at a conference this weekend which was closed out by Chris Hadfield. He mentioned tonight's game and said "Go Habs Go".

He's right, and it's good for our guys to feel that way, but saying it publicly, probably not a good idea. Maybe it'll get in Bishops head a bit. It would be nice to light him up again.
