Adam from TheBeat925 runs through what you need to know to watch the Montreal Canadiens in the playoffs: the national anthems, the goal song, key players like Carey Price and Max Pacioretty, and sudden-death overtime rules. A crash course for new fans.
Everyone likes to feel involved in Habs playoffs. We're all in this together. And this is your crash course for Habs playoff hockey. Starting it off with the American National Anthem, the beautiful Sarah Diamond. Oh, say can you see? And of course, then we move on to the legendary Renault! Oh! We stand on guard for thee! Oh Canada! Now at this point we've seen the ladies, we haven't even started the game, they take the ice, they're playing, they're winning, they're beating everybody! We all hope. And if we're beating everybody, it means that all these pieces to the puzzle are coming together. Carey Price, the biggest piece. The one between the pipes, aptly nicknamed Jesus Price. So when you're watching the game and he makes that crazy save, you could be like, Jesus Price! Now let's move it up from the goalie to the D-line. We've got the replacement for PK. We love you PK, but Shea Weber, you came in and you're looking beautiful in the number 6. A new guy who has come in and rocked The Habs world, he goes by the name of Radulov. Remember it well because you Radulove him. And then we have Gallagher and Galchenyuk, the Gally twins, aka Chucky, aka Gally. Pretty much anybody on the Habs, if you want to give them a nickname, just add an E at the end, like Pricey, Gally, Chucky, Marky. It all works. They keep it moving on the ice. Which leads us all to El Capitan, Max Pacioretty, aka Patches, aka Wolverine. Green because he heals so quickly from injury. He leads the way, and when the Habs score, then it's time for our glorious goal song. And this is where people get confused, because if you're watching and you haven't watched in a while, then you start singing along and you're like, because we don't know the words. But here are the words. It goes, and then The sellies start happening, the celebrations. You're at home, you're on the couch, you're with friends, you got your Habs jerseys on, the wobbly pops are going. You're at the bar. I don't know where you are. Maybe you're at the Habs game. God bless you if you're at the Habs game. And we start going nuts, and then we win. I'm hoping. Now, if you're somebody that has work early in the morning, you're probably hoping that Habs playoffs games end in regulation with a W. But if they don't and they go to overtime, then you need to know this, people. It's sudden death. You go until someone scores. It could go until the next day. You gotta just stay in there. So it doesn't matter if you've been a fan all season or you're joining in on the playoffs, because at the end of the day, go Habs go! Let's win that Stanley Cup, baby! Hey, it's Adam or TB1 from TheBeat925. I know I missed a ton of stuff here. This is just a quick little crash course for the people that were missing out and wanted to be a part of the action.
