Hit the Post with Rick Moffat

The Flyers took out Carey Price, with the trash Monday. A gauntlet of about six Philly players lined up to get in Price’s way and hit him with some trash-talk as he left the ice at the Wachovia Centre trailing 3-0 after 40 minutes.



Most polite suggestions? “Don’t use up all the hot water”, “welcome to the city of brotherly love, not goalie love”, “how’s the sunburn on the back of the neck.”



But I don’t want to hear any of you jumping off the Cowboy’s bandwagon. Even with this loss that sets the Canadiens down 2-1 in games, Price on the Emotional Rebound is still 7-2 in starts after losses since his February recall from the farm.



Three of 7 wins by shutout. If I’m coaching the Habs, I’m still coming back with Carey in Game 4, not Jaroslav Halak.

I thought if Latendresse wasn’t off the chain instantly after being let out of the Carbo Doghouse, I wanted to see Gregory Stewart stir it up for Game 4.



He may look like a young pup (even a Mohawk BuzzCut can’t make him look mean) but he’s wise beyond his years. Best advice his coach in the East Coast Hockey League ever gave him: “When I got called up to the American Hockey League he told me ‘Don’t ever let me see you down here again!’” laughs Stewart.



Hey Thunder-Monkey---nice BuzzCut and playoff beard! But don’t start rubbing it in about Ribeiro.



In Bob We Trust.



He did the right thing getting Mickey Ribs out of Montreal, and I don’t think any of the other “3 Amigos” would be thriving the Habs anyway.



I’ll take Carey over Theo. Pierre Dagenais? Sure the guy had another 20 goal season, but that’s the Austrian League for ya!
