Hockey heartbreak

I guess sometimes the pundits have a point!

So despite my inspired rallying cries last week, my Habs have been outclassed by the Boston Bruins in their opening round series. After a heartbreaking and crippling loss in game three at home last night, my boys are now behind 3-0 in the best of seven series.

As fans of any sport will tell you, the 3-0 deficit is pretty much game over. With the rarest of exceptions, teams just don't come back from that. Rebounding from three losses with four straight wins is next to impossible.

Now, nobody in the world would be happier than me if my Habs were to pull a miracle out of their hats and make an unprecedented come back, storming past the Bruins all the way to the Cup.

But this hasn't been our year for miracles.
