    I'm surprised Craig didn't address Saku's eye nearly being gouged out by Justin Williams during that same series. Poor guy got put through the ringer that week.

  • @maximumperformancefitness6607

    Epic, need more of these behind the scenes shenanigans stories that ESPN won’t dare put on their shows, and most players are afraid to talk about. This is pure gold. Love blooper stories of pro athletes, humanizing them making everyone laugh.

    This was a memorable series as I was watching my Habs when growing up. I remember it had to do with Saku going cold (with good reason we now find out!) and Arturs Irbe replacing Martin Gerber. We were lighting that kid up before Cage Face came in.

    That's crazy. Knocking out the captain over a shit. That was a pretty good team in 2006. 4 good lines, and a decent defense without Brisebois. After winning the first 2 games in Carolina fell apart when Saku went down in game 3. To think how far the team could have went if this had not happened. Makes me appreciate even more that the Habs got Josh Gorges out of trading Rivet.
