Traditionally, the Habs have always received favourable calls and preferential treatment, but would the refs be able to continue that kind of behaviour in this series, when their loved ones would be held hostage in an underground Afghan bunker?Paul Steckleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24746874.post-17439665252899272882010-04-22T17:01:19.112-04:002010-04-22T17:01:19.112-04:00Habs vs Al-Qaeda?

It's not enough to just go on about it... they have to dramatically inform us that "It took Team X 82 games to earn home ice advantage, but Team Y took it away in just 60 minutes..."<br /><br />2. Just another example of the disconnect between fans, and media who talk about fans.
