HE WAS KIDDING, folks, but my is the kid loose. Goalie Carey Price kept a pack of hungry journalists waiting in the Canadiens dressing room after this afternoon's practice, then arrived saying he was delayed getting treatment for a broken leg. "Just a hairline fracture," he quickly added.

The Habs worked out tin LaSalle on the eve of Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinal against the Philadelphia Flyers. Here's some audio rounded up after the session (thanks to Pat Hickey for Price and Carbo), before everyone was thrown out of the Bell Centre for a concert by Billy Joel. (Wonder if the Piano Man's songlist tonight includes Keeping The Faith ?)

• Guy Carbonneau • Saku Koivu • Carey Price • Christopher Higgins • Mike Komisarek

Behind Carey Price's patchy beard, there's no chin -- just another fist. 1. www.flickeringpictures.com - not a hockey site, but still kinda neat 2. Josh Gorges on Montreal's attack: "They're comin', they're comin' and they keep comin'. Just line after line, wave after wave..."

Danis did have a couple of shutouts in the few NHL games he played.

Off to the golf course to enjoy another fine day of spring weather in Ontario. In that time honoured theatrical tradition, here's hoping the Habs 'break a leg' tonight and beat the Flyers. Carey Price, Carey Price, Carey Price! Talk to you later. The Original 24.4 Cups

Some OHL News-- P.K. Suban and the Belleville Bulls just now finished off the Oshawa Generals in 5 games to win the eastern conference 11 to 0. They will play the Kitchener Rangers for the league championship. Both teams will have a birth in the Memorial Cup as Kitchener will host this year. P.K. set up the first 3 goals tonight and had many points in the 11 goals produced.

All that without Shawn Matthias, very impressive.

So we will have Suban and Weber to watch in the Memorial Cup, awesome. Thanks Ian G. for the update.

The quotation marks around 'broken leg' should make it clear that Carey was joking. And listen to the audio... we're not making it up. He started it. Wonderful that the kid should be this loose on the eve of the conference semis. Dave Stubbs

Read in the paper that the Riots were started by a group of arsonists that used the Habs win as an excuse to get a message to the police. Drive For 25 Is Alive!

I would be lying if I said my heart didn't skip a few beats there! I just got tickets to the game on Saturday and that just killed me a little.
