April 19

1775: American Revolutionary War begins (Battle of Lexington and Concord).
1861: American Civil War begins (Baltimore Riots).
1943: First LSD trip (Bicycle Day).
1996: A record 36 tornados documented in one day.
2004: After being down 3-1 in the series, the Montreal Canadiens cap their first-round comeback against the Boston Bruins with a game seven victory.
2008: Katie O'D is able to legally drink in all of Canada.

It may seem unlikely that the Bruins take this series to seven games, but April 19 is a strange day.

Happy B-Day, KT.

We were at Game 6. Lots of worried-looking Habs fans. This time there was no doubt whose building it is -- not an "ole, ole" to be heard.

No matter what happens, the B's have exceeded our expectations this year. And Kessel answered the bell.

If Claude Julien doesn't deserve the Jack Adams award, no one ever did. What a difference a year -- and a coach -- makes.
