Montreal Canadiens vs. Buffalo Sabres

November 14, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

On the other end, Cole is making waves, his big fin chopping cold Buffalo water.

The Silver Fox

Rangers poem.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Nashville Predators

November 12, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Trotz seems in physical pain from hockey intensity. Hands behind his back, I can only imagine what his fingers are doing to one another.

Le Temple De La Renommée Du Hockey

Montreal Canadiens vs. Phoenix Coyotes

November 11, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

My brain is a jumbalo fugue right now. Mostly fed but awfully fleep. And beeple.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Edmonton Oilers

November 10, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

This is hockey at its best. Pause, rush, rip and roar, the seams stretch but don’t tear. Cole across. Cuts. He has what he wants. Pointblank crossing the low slot. And Khabibulin sees and stops all tonight. What saves and what concentration. He’s maude mad marionette to the maven named puck.

Dawn Town Ice

Patinoire Exterieure.

Montreal Canadiens vs. New York Rangers

November 5, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Darche likes Eller. No surprise.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Ottawa Senators

November 4, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Ottawa is like a game and lame small-purse boxer, lurching in front of his home crowd, his girl screeching in the first row and seagulls wheeling on the wharf overhead. For nearly twenty seconds, they nearly capsize the Habs.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Boston Bruins

October 29, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Love is typing on a poor keyboard.

My Country

October 28, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

The e is an a.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Boston Bruins

October 27, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Canadiens flit fleet in the slot. Thomas flubbles and weaves, rolling and low and then back up again. Plekanec’ shot from the high slot just misses the crossbar.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Philadelphia Flyers

October 26, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Straw bonfire giveaway. Eller. Right at the stoop. Crackle and a rusted laugh. Just wide. Bryzgalov is spared. And the bay moon still has to set.

Cork Surface

Twenty-ninth.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Florida Panthers

October 24, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Cole is able to stand, in the wind and back to the cutlasses, reliant on his husk and grim stance. Nobody can knock him down. This time.

The Logo

October 23, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Canadiens poem. Farrier.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Toronto Maple Leafs

October 22, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Toronto fearsome. Off the post. And Gill falls. Price scrambles back. Everyone in sync, all men for one crest. And we waited six games for this.

Worthless Programming

Opinion.

Her Gift Of Green

October 21, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Bengal from winter.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Pittsburgh Penguins

October 20, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

Meanwhile, back in Canada, ball hockey continues to be prohibited.

Montreal Canadiens vs. Buffalo Sabres

October 18, 2011, by Homme de Sept-Îles

And now I remember what made Miller so good. He’s always in the way

White October

Cold Cackle.
