Another road game, another original six matchup, another win for the Canadiens. First 3-0 start to a season since 78-79. Not bad.

All in all I’m digging the new rule changes. There are practically no icings anymore, nor are there many pucks shot over the glass by the players; under the old rules you saw plenty of both, and it just killed the pace of the game.

We’ve started looking at plans for both xmas and our Rockies trip next year. Neither will be cheap. But both will be fun (hopefully). I think we’re going to take one more stab at Da Maurizio; if nature or circumstance denies us this time, we’ll know it’s fate that we never eat there again.
