I have to say that I am a bit nervous about tonight’s game….admittedly, I am generally kind of a high-strung person so feeling like that might not be related to the Jets-Habs clash at all. 😉
Here’s hoping that Winnipeg takes Montreal seriously and continues their dominance of the Eastern Conference.
